Larry G. Spangler, Chief Executive Manager, Happy Trails, LLC A NEW BROADWAY MUSICAL New Book by Marshall Brickman In our contemporary culture, innocence and sincerity are frowned upon as old fashioned, simplistic, corny, not hip. In this era of stock market manipulation, corruption at every level of government and a bottom-line mentality that cuts across every stratum of society – values like honesty, self-sacrifice, even the Golden Rule, are dismissed as weakness. “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you” has now become “Do unto others. Period. And then get the hell out.” If there’s anything that can be stated about Roy Rogers (and Dale) it’s that he’s straight as an arrow, strong, honest, with a clear moral compass, loyal, a devoted husband and father… in dramatic terms, too good to be true. Even in the throes of grief from losing a wife or a child, he remains (as does Dale) stoic, resigned but up-beat, hardly questioning God’s purpose in visiting upon them their personal tragedies. One assumes that privately there was some questioning of God’s design, rage at their losses – but that was never integrated into their public personas, except to acknowledge their tragedies and use them as raw material with which they built a spiritual haven. This simple, straight-shooting morality – seeing the world in good and bad terms, without apologies and explanations, is what the RR “brand” has to offer.

MUTUAL AESTHETICS VISUAL STYLE IN THE FILMS OF F.W. MURNAU AND JOHN FORD, 1928-1941 By Joseph D. Sherry An Honors Project Submitted in Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for Honors In The Film Studies Program The School of Arts and Sciences Rhode Island College 2016 Sherry 1 Introduction F.W. Murnau wrote, “All great arts have had great artists born to understand them as no other men can, and the motion picture is the single art expression of our age.”1 Murnau made this remark shortly after his masterpiece, Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans (1927), was released by Fox Film Corporation. Sunrise’s production riveted the entire studio lot due to its scope and Murnau’s international reputation; its subsequent critical success solidified Murnau’s place in Fox’s top-tier of directors. But John Ford, also one of Fox’s top-tier directors, once brusquely remarked, “It’s no use talking to me about art .

  • Bucking Boradway
    Bucking Broadway: A Rediscovered Treasure Archived under the wrong name by a collector in 1970, the film had rested in an archive storage cell for almost 30 years when it was finally identified as one of John Ford’s lost films. Harry Carey acted in this Western love story which has now been digitally restored. It was a major hit back in its day, because of the furious horse ride through the streets of New York and because of the big fight at the end. « Bucking Broadway: A Rediscovered Treasure », A Journey of Discovery AFF – CNC on www.cnc-aff.fr page 1/12 Rediscovery Each year, around 1,000 films are deposited with the French film archives at the CNC. One of the CNC’s missions is to catalogue these films. During the cataloguing process, workers note the information listed on the film box labels and in the credits at the beginning of the film, if any. For silent films, the first title cards sometimes provide some information, but that is rare. Boxes to be catalogued This initial information is not always correct: a film may be kept in the wrong box or, as was often the case for silent films shown at carnivals, the name of the film may have been changed in order to make it more appealing and a better sell. The Catalogue The films are then reconsidered during a more in-depth cataloguing process, and that is when surprises can occur! That is how, 30 years after they were deposited by a collector, four reels of a film called Drame au Far West ended up being studied by an Archives librarian specialized in John Ford films.

  • John Ford Birth Name: John Martin Feeney (Sean Aloysius O'fearna)
    John Ford Birth Name: John Martin Feeney (Sean Aloysius O'Fearna) Director, Producer Birth Feb 1, 1895 (Cape Elizabeth, ME) Death Aug 31, 1973 (Palm Desert, CA) Genres Drama, Western, Romance, Comedy Maine-born John Ford originally went to Hollywood in the shadow of his older brother, Francis, an actor/writer/director who had worked on Broadway. Originally a laborer, propman's assistant, and occasional stuntman for his brother, he rose to became an assistant director and supporting actor before turning to directing in 1917. Ford became best known for his Westerns, of which he made dozens through the 1920s, but he didn't achieve status as a major director until the mid-'30s, when his films for RKO (The Lost Patrol [1934], The Informer [1935]), 20th Century Fox (Young Mr. Lincoln [1939], The Grapes of Wrath [1940]), and Walter Wanger (Stagecoach [1939]), won over the public, the critics, and earned various Oscars and Academy nominations. His 1940s films included one military-produced documentary co-directed by Ford and cinematographer Gregg Toland, December 7th (1943), which creaks badly today (especially compared with Frank Capra's Why We Fight series); a major war film (They Were Expendable [1945]); the historically-based drama My Darling Clementine (1946); and the "cavalry trilogy" of Fort Apache (1948), She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (1949), and Rio Grande (1950), each of which starred John Wayne. My Darling Clementine and the cavalry trilogy contain some of the most powerful images of the American West ever shot, and are considered definitive examples of the Western. Ford also had a weakness for Irish and Gaelic subject matter, in which a great degree of sentimentality was evident, most notably How Green Was My Valley (1941) and The Quiet Man (1952), which was his most personal film, and one of his most popular.

It's the Western, and its origins will be explored in a summer-long series of rarely screened silent films at the Town Hall Theatre in Wilton, N.H. The series, which includes seven programs and a dozen movies, runs from early June through late August. The screenings are free to the public; a donation of $10 per person is suggested to support the Town Hall Theatre's silent film series. All programs will feature live music by silent film accompanist Jeff Rapsis. "Many of these films are over 100 years old, and so they're not far removed from the 'Old West' depicted in them," Rapsis said. The series ranges from big budget Hollywood epics such as 'The Covered Wagon'—the top grossing film of 1923—to obscure fare such as 'Salomy Jane' (1914), an early feature and the sole surviving film of the California Motion Picture Corp. Along the way, audiences will sample the stern morality of William S.
