S ondra Locke was an actor, producer, director and talented singer. But it was her destiny to be linked forever with Clint Eastwood, whose partner she was from the mid-1970s to the late 1980s. She was a sexy, charismatic performer with a tough, lean look who starred alongside Eastwood in hit movies like The Outlaw Josey Wales, The Gauntlet, Every Which Way But Loose (in which she sang her own songs — also for the sequel Any Which Way You Can) and Bronco Billy. But the pair became trapped in one of the most notoriously toxic relationships in Hollywood history, an ugly, messy and abusive overlap of the personal and professional — a case of love gone sour and mentorship gone terribly wrong.

  • 'Pale Rider' Is Clint Eastwood's First Western Film Since He Starred in and Directed "The Outlaw Josey Wales" in 1976
    'Pale Rider' is Clint Eastwood's first Western film since he starred in and directed "The Outlaw Josey Wales" in 1976. Eastwood plays a nameless stranger who rides into the gold rush town of LaHood, California and comes to the aid of a group of independent gold prospectors who are being threatened by the LaHood mining corporation. The independent miners hold claims to a region called Carbon Canyon, the last of the potentially ore-laden areas in the county. Coy LaHood wants to dredge Carbon Canyon and needs the independent miners out LaHood hires the county marshal, a gunman named Stockburn with six deputies, to get the job done. What neither LaHood nor Stockburn could possibly have taken into consideration is the appearance of the enigmatic horseman and the fate awaiting them. This study guide attempts to place 'Pale Rider' within the Western genre and also within the canon of Eastwood's films. We would suggest that the work on Film genre and advertising are completed before students see 'Pale Rider'. FILM GENRE The word "genre" might well be unfamiliar to you. It is a French word which means "type" and so when we talk of film genre we mean type of film. The western is one particular genre which we will be looking at in detail in this study guide. What other types of genre are there in film? Horror is one. Task One Write a list of all the different film genres that you can think of. When you have done this, try to write a list of genres that you might find in literature.

Hanes1 1Pesquisador Autônomo, Niterói, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil Abstract: Since the mythic space of the Western helped shape how Americans view themselves, as well as how the world has viewed them, the characterization of Native American, Hispanic, and Anglo interaction warrants closer scrutiny. For a corpus with substantial diachrony, every Western in the National Registry of Films produced between the end of the Second World War and the American Bicentennial (1945-1976), i.e. the cultural apex of the genre, was assessed for the presence of foreign language and interpretation, the relationship between English and social power, and change over time. The analysis showed that although English was universally the language of power, and that the social status of characters could be measured by their fluency, there was a significant presence of foreign language, principally Spanish (63% of the films), with some form of interpretation occurring in half the films. Questions of cultural identity were associated with multilingualism and, although no diachronic pattern could be found in the distribution of foreign language, protagonism for Hispanics and Native Americans did grow over time. A spectrum of narrative/cinematic approaches to foreign language was determined that could be useful for further research on the presentation of foreigners and their language in the dramatic arts.

Leah Capaldi Lay Down Private View – Sunday 06 November, 3-6pm 11 November – 18 December 2016, Friday –Sunday 12-6pm Lay Down is the first major solo show By artist Leah Capaldi. The exhiBition opens Matt’s Gallery’s temporary new space in Bermondsey, marking a new era for the gallery as it moves south of the river. Lay Down is an entirely new work By Capaldi, a site-specific installation involving a video sculpture with continual performance, inspired By her time in the deserts of the American West. Here, Capaldi met a Utah cowboy and his horse, a film exploring their relationship and the vast, performative landscape that surrounds them forms the core of the installation. Lay Down asks how power is constructed and understood, this question arising throughout the installation, in the iconic figure of the American cowboy, the influence of the suBlime landscape and the authority of the screen. The crossover area Between the disciplines of sculpture and performance are of particular interest to Leah Capaldi’s practice, with echoes of the seminal performance work of the late 1960s and early 70s. Capaldi’s work explores the pivotal relationship Between object or suBject, encouraging the audience to question themselves in relation to the work and playing with notions of surveillance and spectatorship.

  • Place Images of the American West in Western Films
    PLACE IMAGES OF THE AMERICAN WEST IN WESTERN FILMS by TRAVIS W. SMITH B.S., Kansas State University, 2003 M.A., Kansas State University, 2005 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Geography College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2016 Abstract Hollywood Westerns have informed popular images of the American West for well over a century. This study of cultural, cinematic, regional, and historical geography examines place imagery in the Western. Echoing Blake’s (1995) examination of the novels of Zane Grey, the research questions analyze one hundred major Westerns to identify (1) the spatial settings (where the plot of the Western transpires), (2) the temporal settings (what date[s] in history the Western takes place), and (3) the filming locations. The results of these three questions illuminate significant place images of the West and the geography of the Western. I selected a filmography of one hundred major Westerns based upon twenty different Western film credentials. My content analysis involved multiple viewings of each Western and cross-referencing film content like narrative titles, American Indian homelands, fort names, and tombstone dates with scholarly and popular publications. The Western spatially favors Apachería, the Borderlands and Mexico, and the High Plains rather than the Pacific Northwest. Also, California serves more as a destination than a spatial setting. Temporally, the heart of the Western beats during the 1870s and 1880s, but it also lives well into the twentieth century. The five major filming location clusters are the Los Angeles / Hollywood area and its studio backlots, Old Tucson Studios and southeastern Arizona, the Alabama Hills in California, Monument Valley in Utah and Arizona, and the Santa Fe region in New Mexico.

  • ZELLA-DAY-KICKER-Bio-2015.Pdf
    A dusky-voiced 20-year-old singer/songwriter from deep in the mountains of Arizona, Zella Day makes electro- charged, guitar-driven indie-pop that’s steeped in a magic of her own invention. After teaching herself to play guitar at a young age and writing her first batch of songs in her teens, Zella began honing a songwriting style rooted in real-life stories but shaped by her infatuation with everything from desert mystique and old spaghetti westerns to the psychedelic culture of ‘60s California. Lacing her lyrical storytelling with sunlit melodies and heavy beats, the L.A.-based artist now delivers her full-length debut with KICKER—an intimate but gorgeously expansive album. Zella explains, “The music’s spiritual resonance is clearly influenced by the Northern Arizona mountains that sheltered my creative energy from any outside implications of city mentality. The creatures I encountered while exploring the depths of my mind and the small town full of secrets all hold great importance to the characterization of this record. One of the most important characters that embody this story is KICKER. I was a young girl beginning to understand what my existence meant to the world around me, and KICKER was the ranch horseman that was coloring my imagination with the legends of his native culture. I look back now with a realization of how perfect the timing was when he came in to my life; little did I know I was being presented with a divine guidance that led me deeper into the interworking of my creative visions that contribute to my artistry today.

  • “Bloody Bill” Anderson | June 2012 & June 2016
    Essential Civil War Curriculum | Matthew C. Hulbert, William “Bloody Bill” Anderson | June 2012 & June 2016 William “Bloody Bill” Anderson By Matthew C. Hulbert, University of Georgia ame’s Anderson. Bloody Bill’s what they call me.” For myriad Americans this laconic introduction, plucked from the opening moments of The Outlaw “N Josey Wales (1976), has constituted the first and only encounter with the figure Civil War historians and western enthusiasts know well as William “Bloody Bill” Anderson. Unlike the more familiar of his Confederate contemporaries - Virginians and Lost Cause mainstays like Robert E. Lee and Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson - Anderson earned his “Bloody Bill” moniker on a different sort of battlefield. As a prominent guerrilla chieftain, he was both a major part and product of the notorious guerrilla conflict that engulfed Missouri during the Civil War.1 Bill Anderson and his irregular comrades - bushwhackers such as William Clarke Quantrill, George M. Todd, Clifton Holtzclaw, Dave Poole, Cole Younger, Charles Fletcher Taylor, Archie Clement, William H. Gregg, and Frank James, along with numerous others—operated predominantly on what is typically, though perhaps misleadingly, designated as the home front in Civil War Missouri. Under moonlit skies, down Arcadian roads, and in backcountry fields they hunted Union militiamen, federal soldiers, and alleged Union sympathizers with little regard for more formal standards of wartime conduct. Their brand of guerrilla warfare involved ambush, rape, espionage, arson, infighting, scalping, beheading, torture, theft, ethnic vendetta, and even outright massacre. Thus, while assessing the relatively short life and blood-soaked career of William T. Anderson, it is essential that his story be read with two fundamental precepts in mind.
