It’s the University that studied me”. (Eu não estudei na universidade. É a universidade que me estudou.) Woody Allen 5 Resumo Procuramos analisar os filmes e peças teatrais de Woody Allen, cineasta e ator, também dramaturgo e contista; buscamos uma influência recíproca do cinema em seu teatro e do teatro em seu cinema, desde citações intertextuais de diversos trabalhos artísticos até adaptações de suas próprias obras para outras mídias; analisamos suas paródias e as influências de outros autores em seu estilo, e também a influência de seu estilo no trabalho de novos autores. Através disto, queremos entender a presença da linguagem fílmica na sua escritura de peças teatrais e do papel desempenhado pela linguagem dramatúrgica na sua narrativa cinematográfica. 6 Abstract We tried to analyse the plays and screenplays of Woody Allen – the film diretor, actor, also a playwright and storyteller; we searched for a reciprocal influence by the cinema on his plays and by the theater on his films, since intertextuality quotations of various artistic works, until adaptations from his own work to another media; we analyzed his parodies, and the influences by other authors on his style, and also his influence on the style of new authors. Through this, we want to understand the presence of the filmic language in the writing of his plays, and the role played by the dramatic language in his cinematographic narrative. 7 Índice de ilustrações Figura 1: Allen como Weinrib contracena com o coro grego em Taormina, em Mighty Aphrodite - capa Figura 2: Allen como inventor em Midsummer Night’s Sex Comedy – p. 23 Figura 3: Allen como Zelig (índio) – p. 24 Figuras 4A e B: Sharon Stone faz figuração em Stardust Memories de Allen e o trem das pessoas tristes – p. 50 Figura 5: Bóris morto, referência a Bergman – p. 53 Figuras 6A e B: Bananas – o repórter e o presidente morto; Fielding e o segurança americano – p. 62 Figura 7: Zelig ao lado de O’ Neill – p. 67 Figura 8: Allen atrás da tela onde está sendo projetado The Lady from Shangai – p. 71 Figura 9: Yale, Ike e o esqueleto em Manhattan: improviso – p. 75 Figura 10: Barbara Hershey, Max Von Sydow e Michael Caine em Hannah – p. 78 Figura 11: Desenho de Branca de Neve com Allen em Annie Hall – p. 81 Figura 12: Cartaz de Midnight in Paris faz alusão a Van Gogh – p. 85 Figuras 13 A e B: Caruso vestido de Pagliacci e Woody Allen/Zelig posa como Caruso na ópera Pagliacci – p. 92 Figuras 14: Allen e Kavner na versão para a TV de Don’t Drink the Water – p. 95 Figura 15: Cartaz de Don’t Drink the Water versão para o cinema – p. 99 Figura 16: Quadrinhos de Inside Woody Allen, ilustração de Stuart Hample e piadas de Allen – p. 109 Figura 17: Cartaz de Across the Pacific, de John Huston, com Humphrey Bogart, no quarto de Allan, crítico de cinema de Play it Again, Sam – p. 113 Figura 18: Cartaz de Shadows and Fog – p. 118 Figura 19: Cartaz de Shadows and Fog Allen dirige Emma Stone e Colin Firth em Magic in the Moonlight – p. 127 Figura 20: Allen dirige seu pai (à esquerda) em Broadway Danny Rose – p. 132 Figuras 21 A e B: Diane Wiest no papel que lhe rendeu o segundo Oscar em Bullets over Broadway e o musical Bullets over Broadway – p. 136 Figura 22: Woody Allen interage com o coro, filmado em Taormina - p. 147 8 Figura 23: O pensamento de Annie e de Alvy aparece na tela como legendas enquanto ouvimos o diálogo – p. 179 Figura 24: Todos são Grouxo Marx, em Everybody Says I Love You - p. 181 Figura 25: Pais de Zelig com máscara de Groucho Marx – p. 181 Figura 26: Dois cenários na cena dos psiquiatras de Annie Hall – p. 183 Figura 27: Allan sentado com seus coleguinhas da escola fundamental – p. 184 Figura 28: Vovó Hall vê Alvy como se ele fosse um judeu ortodoxo – p. 185 Figura 29: À direita do quadro, Marshall MacLuhan – p. 188 Figura 30: Zelig está atrás de Hitler – p. 190 Figura 31: Melinda & Melinda – p. 195 Figura 32: Pôster ao fundo da casa do personagem Sandy em Stardust Memories – p. 199 Figura 33: Cate Blanchett no papel de Jasmine, que lhe rendeu o segundo Oscar – p. 204 Figura 34: Allen como diretor (Annie Hall) – p. 210 Figura 35: Tia Ceil e a mãe de Sheldon ao som de Benny Goodman – p. 213 Figura 36: Atriz/personagem do filme dentro do filme tentando em vão sair da tela – p. 219 Figura 37: Allen à máquina de escrever em Play it Again, Sam e em Deconstructing Harry – p. 221 Figura 38: Levitação em Stardust Memories – p. 229 Figura 39: Mae Questel – p. 230 Figura 40: Woody e Louise na teia de aranha – p. 231 Figura 41: The Curse of the Jade Scorpion – Allen e Helen Hunt – p. 232 Figura 42: Cena da ponte do Brooklyn em Manhattan – p. 244 Figura 43: Cena de Cupid’s Shaft com Candice Bergen – p. 276 9 SUMÁRIO INTRODUÇÃO GERAL............................................................................................ p. 11 1 – TUDO QUE VOCÊ SEMPRE QUIS SABER SOBRE ALLEN (Dados Biográficos) ..................................................................................................................................... p. 16 2 – A COMÉDIA QUE NASCE DA TRAGÉDIA..................................................... p. 18 2.1 – A filosofia da comédia aplicada a filmes de Allen...............................................p. 19 2.2 – Para entender o humor judaico.

The myth of the unbeatable fighter is just that, a myth. In what will go down as the single most memorable UFC fight in history, Ronda Rousey was not only defeated, but systematically destroyed by a fighter and a coaching staff that had spent years preparing for that night. On 2/28, Holly Holm and Ronda Rousey were the two co-headliners on a show at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. The idea was that Holm, a former world boxing champion, would impressively knock out Raquel Pennington, a .500 level fighter who was known for exchanging blows and not taking her down. Rousey was there to face Cat Zingano, a fight that was supposed to be the hardest one of her career. Holm looked unimpressive, barely squeaking by in a split decision. Rousey beat Zingano with an armbar in 14 seconds.

  • PDF File About Claire Windsor
    r ..~- Claire Windsor One Fan's Fond Remembrance by Al Bohrer Claire Windsor was born Clara Viola "Ola" Cronk in Cawker City, Kansas, on April 14, 1897\An early marriage, to William Bowes, ended in divorce. With her infant son, she moved with her parents to Seattle, Washington, where she entered and won a local beauty contest. Later, she moved to California and took the advice of a friend who suggested that the burgeoning film industry could help her support her little boy. She first hired on as an extra and toiled anonymously for a while. Then, one day she caught the eye of Lois Weber, the pioneer producer and director of silent pictures. Weber was impressed by Olaas rare beauty and signed her to a contract for $150 per week. She did a string of five movies from 1920 through 1922. The second year of her contract her salary increased to $350 per week. She was ideally suited to the kind of melodramas the Weber pictures called for. Another newcomer, Louis Calhern,' was her leading man in two of these, The Blot and Whatas Worthwhile (both 1921). In June of 1921, a feverish headline in the San Francisco Chronicle proclaimed: "Chaplin Offers $1000 Reward for Missing Star." This started the ball rolling. Claire was the "missing film star." Of course, this was nothing more th~n a publicity stunt. Claire had been a frequent Chaplin date. Claire and Buddy were regulars at William Randolph Hearstas "Xanadu" castle in the late 1920s. Among the many books written on this social phenomenon, the late Ken Murray did a marvelous job with his, "The Golden Days at San Simeon." Claire figured prominently in the book, among the many stars who spent happy hours frolicking in the luxurious setting.

  • From Lois Weber to Kathryn Bigelow, and the “Chick- Flick” Reputation
    Where are All the Women? From Lois Weber to Kathryn Bigelow, and the “Chick- Flick” Reputation Cathy Kostova, 9 March 2015 I. Intro Manohla Dargis argues[1] that Kathryn Bigelow’s two-fisted win at the Academy Awards, in 2009, for best director and best film, for “The Hurt Locker”, has helped dismantle stereotypes about what types of films women can and should direct. As much as I agree with her that this was a historic and exhilarating moment for women filmmakers all around the world, I find the fact that the Oscar was granted to a movie with no female point of view whatsoever and to a director who tries her best not to be identified as female when it comes to her job, proves that films with strong female characters, and women directors who create such characters, remain very rarely recognized. 1. The Academy Statistics There have been only 4 women nominated for best director, out of the 424 nominations in the history of the Oscars: 1976: Lina Wertmüller for “Seven Beauties” (1975), 1993: Jane Campion for “The Piano” (1993), 2003: Sofia Coppola for “Lost in Translation” (2003), and 2009: Kathryn Bigelow for “The Hurt Locker” (2008) A 2012 survey conducted by the Los Angeles Times found that overall, academy members are 94 percent white and 77 percent male, and that their median age is 62. Cathy Kostova 1 WHERE ARE ALL THE WOMEN? From Lois Weber To Kathryn Bigelow, and the “Chick-Flick” Reputation, 9 March 2015 Women make up 19 percent of the academy’s screenwriting branch and 18 percent of its producers branch, but only 9 percent of its directors branch.

  • Frances Marion and the Powerful Women of Early Hollywood
    LOS ANGELES IN 1924 was still coming in to its own. It had been Spanish territory when, a century and a half earlier, Franciscan friars cut a swath through the native villages and built the mission and plaza that soon formed the nucleus of the pueblo of Los Angeles. There was a brief Mexican reign before California was “proclaimed for America” in 1846, but while the gold rush that stimulated statehood in 1850 made a huge impact on northern California, turning San Francisco into a major cosmo- politan city, Los Angeles remained a “tough cow town.” It wasn’t until the land boom of the late 1800s that major changes grew visible, followed by an economic downturn, and soon Midwestern families were joining together to buy hundreds of acres, moving en masse to the area to create their own communities infused with their own values. The discovery and exploitation of oil quickly accelerated the changes, spurring the development of the port and interspersing lean-to refineries and wells away among the orange groves, the churches, a few hotels, and clusters of houses and shops. By the beginning of the new century, the southland was a series of three dozen incorporated towns and it was close to impos- sible to know where one began and another ended. The region was tied together by the Red Cars, electric trains running from San Fernando down to Newport Beach and from Riverside out to the Pacific Ocean, providing cheap, easy access from one town to the next for tourists and commuters alike. The sun, the dry air, and the ocean all factored into slowly but surely 1 Beauchamp.indd 1 10/26/2005 11:19:53 AM bringing the new phenomenon of movie making to the area.
