    Olga Petrova Also Known As: Minnie Collins, Muriel Harding, Madame Petrova, O. Petrova, Olya Petrova Lived: May 10, 1884 - November 30, 1977 Worked as: co-screenwriter, film actress, film company owner, musical comedy actress, producer, screenwriter Worked In: United States by Wendy Holliday As a girl in England at the turn of the century, Olga Petrova (born Muriel Harding) felt stifled by her father’s strict rules. According to her memoir, Petrova’s father told her that while she lived in his house and ate his bread, he would set the rules. Petrova was determined to live in her own house and eat her own bread (Petrova 55-56). Her success in reaching this goal, and more, is reflected in the title of her memoir, Butter with My Bread. According to her memoir, Petrova’s desire for independence led her to run away to become a governess, but it is sometimes difficult to tell the mythmaking from reality in Petrova’s writing. She eventually met a theatre agent and became a successful actress in musicals and vaudeville in both London and New York. She likely chose the stage name Olga Petrova herself and created her own back story as a glamorous Pole or Russian. Later Hollywood publicity claimed that the studio created this persona, but press clippings and her memoir suggest that Petrova used the name on the stage. Petrova began her film acting career in The Tigress (1914), directed by Alice Guy Blaché, whom she describes as wearing a “silken glove” but “capable of using a mailed fist” in the short piece, “A Remembrance” (102–103).

  • Mary Murillo
    Mary Murillo Also Known As: Mary O’Connor, Mary Velle Lived: January 22, 1888 - February 4, 1944 Worked as: adapter, film company managing director, scenario writer, screenwriter, theatre actress Worked In: France, United Kingdom: England, United States by Christina Petersen In March 1918, Moving Picture World heralded British screenwriter Mary Murillo as a “remarkable example” of “the meteoric flights to fame and fortune which have marked the careers of many present day leaders in the motion picture profession” (1525). This was more than just promotional hyperbole, since, in just four years, Murillo had penned over thirty features, including a highly successful adaptation of East Lynne (1916) starring Theda Bara and the original story for Cheating the Public (1918), “which proved a sensation” at its New York debut according to Moving Picture World (1525). Murillo wrote or adapted over fifty films from 1913 to 1934 in the United States, England, and France, including slapstick comedies, melodramas, fairy tale adaptations, and vehicles for female stars such as Bara, Ethel Barrymore, Clara Kimball Young, Olga Petrova, and Norma Talmadge. As a scenarist, her range included several films focused on contemporary issues—gender equality, women’s suffrage, economic progressivism, and labor reform—while others, such as the child-oriented adaptation of Jack and the Beanstalk (1917), seem to have been meant to appeal as pure escapism. In the latter half of her career, Murillo left the United States for England where she joined several ventures, but never equaled her American output. Born in January 1888 and educated at the Sacred Heart Convent in Roehampton, England, Murillo immigrated to the United States in 1908 at the age of nineteen (“Mary Murillo, Script Writer” 1525; McKernan 2015, 80).

  • Alice Guy Blaché
    Alice Guy Blaché Also Known As: Alice Blache, Alice Guy, Alice Guy-Blaché Lived: July 1, 1873 - March 24, 1968 Worked as: assistant director, co-director, co-producer, co-screenwriter, director, film company owner, lecturer, producer, screenwriter, secretary, writer Worked In: France, United States by Alison McMahan From 1896 to 1906 Alice Guy was probably the only woman film director in the world. She had begun as a secretary for Léon Gaumont and made her first film in 1896. After that first film, she directed and produced or supervised almost six hundred silent films ranging in length from one minute to thirty minutes, the majority of which were of the single-reel length. In addition, she also directed and produced or supervised one hundred and fifty synchronized sound films for the Gaumont Chronophone. Her Gaumont silent films are notable for their energy and risk-taking; her preference for real locations gives the extant examples of these Gaumont films a contemporary feel. As Alan Williams has described her influence, Alice Guy “created and nurtured the mood of excitement and sheer aesthetic pleasure that one senses in so many pre-war Gaumont films, including the ones made after her departure from the Paris studio” (57). Most notable of her Gaumont period films is La Vie du Christ (1906), a thirty-minute extravaganza that featured twenty-five sets as well as numerous exterior locations and over three hundred extras. In early 1907, Guy resigned her position as head of Gaumont’s film production arm in Paris although she did not end her business relationship with Gaumont.

  • Ronald Davis Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts
    Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts in America Southern Methodist University The Southern Methodist University Oral History Program was begun in 1972 and is part of the University’s DeGolyer Institute for American Studies. The goal is to gather primary source material for future writers and cultural historians on all branches of the performing arts- opera, ballet, the concert stage, theatre, films, radio, television, burlesque, vaudeville, popular music, jazz, the circus, and miscellaneous amateur and local productions. The Collection is particularly strong, however, in the areas of motion pictures and popular music and includes interviews with celebrated performers as well as a wide variety of behind-the-scenes personnel, several of whom are now deceased. Most interviews are biographical in nature although some are focused exclusively on a single topic of historical importance. The Program aims at balancing national developments with examples from local history. Interviews with members of the Dallas Little Theatre, therefore, serve to illustrate a nation-wide movement, while film exhibition across the country is exemplified by the Interstate Theater Circuit of Texas. The interviews have all been conducted by trained historians, who attempt to view artistic achievements against a broad social and cultural backdrop. Many of the persons interviewed, because of educational limitations or various extenuating circumstances, would never write down their experiences, and therefore valuable information on our nation’s cultural heritage would be lost if it were not for the S.M.U. Oral History Program. Interviewees are selected on the strength of (1) their contribution to the performing arts in America, (2) their unique position in a given art form, and (3) availability.

    THE STOLEN FAIRY DUST: AN ANALYSIS OF THE AMERICAN FILM ADAPTATIONS OF PETER PAN * MIRALLES LÁZARO , Javier [email protected] Fecha de recepción: 16 de julio de 2013 Fecha de aceptación: 29 de julio de 2013 Título: «El polvo de hadas robado: Un análisis de las adaptaciones de Peter Pan en el cine americano» Resumen: Este trabajo tiene por objeto realizar un estudio comparativo entre Peter Pan del autor escocés J.M. Barrie y su posterior conversión al cine. Para ello, analizamos el proceso de adaptación en cuatro películas que, además de ser bien conocidas por el público, comparten la característica de haber sido producidas por estudios de cine americanos. Ateniéndonos al carácter original de la obra, adoptaremos un enfoque que nos permita reconocer las similitudes y diferencias entre el texto literario y el texto fílmico. Así pues, observaremos cómo, a través de sus numerosas recreaciones, la industria de Hollywood se ha apropiado de un relato mítico de la literatura inglesa y lo ha convertido en un producto «made in U.S.A.». Palabras clave: J.M. Barrie – cine – adaptación – derechos de autor – W. Disney – S. Spielberg Abstract: This paper aims to conduct a comparative study between Peter Pan by the Scottish author J.M. Barrie and its subsequent conversion into film. To do this, we analyse the process of adaptation in four films which, besides being well known by the public, share the characteristic of having been produced by American film studios. Guided by the original character of the work, we will adopt an approach that allows us to recognise the similarities * Este trabajo ha contado con la guía de la Dra.

  • Peter Pan, “Why Fear Death? It Is the Most Beautiful Adventure That Life Gives Us.”
    A Reader's Guide ON THE SAME PAGE 2020 MADISON LIBRARY DISTRICT Sir James Matthew Barrie, 1st Baronet James Barrie, often referred to as J.M. Barrie, was the ninth of ten children born to David Barrie, a hand weaver, and the former Margaret (Mary) Ogilvy in Kirriemuir, Scotland on May 9, 1860. Little Jamie had a complicated relationship with the matriarch of this strict Calvinist family. His maternal grandmother had died when Mary was eight, leaving her to run the large household. She had no real childhood of her own which may have tainted her relationships with her children. Mary had a very clear favorite, Jamie’s older brother David. When Jamie was six and David fourteen, David was killed in an ice skating accident, and Mary plummeted into an emotional abyss. Attempting to gain her love and give her some consolation, little Jamie began dressing in his dead brothers clothes, tried to act like him, give his familiar whistles, etc. At one point, he walked into a room where his mother was sitting in the dark, her eyes grew large and she asked, “Is that you?” to which Jamie replied, “No, it’s no him; it’s just me.” The only thing that seemed to give his mother any comfort was knowing that David would never grow up and leave her behind. Jamie was a small child, short (Even as an adult, he never passed five feet three inches.) and slight who drew attention to himself through storytelling. He spent much of his school years in Glasgow where his two oldest siblings, Mary Ann and Alexander, taught at the academy.

De este modo, en el análisis de cualquier texto audiovisual no se puede omitir la importancia del trabajo que realizan los productores y lo determinante que resulta la dirección y el diseño de la producción para que las películas, las series y otros productos audiovisuales conozcan el éxito, no sólo en la factura del film o del programa de televisión, sino también en sus procesos de explota- ción (distribución, exhibición, difusión o comercialización), en los que estos pro- fesionales participan de forma muy activa.
