  • This Film Is a Poem 1,380 Words
    This Film is A Poem 1,380 words - by Cynthia Close - published in 2016 in Documentary magazine- Review of the newly remastered Criterion released A Poem is a Naked Person, by Les Blank commissioned by Leon Russell, shot from 1972-74. Blu-Ray edition contains: *90 minute restored feature A Poem is a Naked Person *New conversation between musician Leon Russell and Harrod Blank, Les Blank’s son *Excerpts from a 2013 Q&A with Les Blank *The new documentary, A Film’s Forty-year Journey: The Making of “A Poem is a Naked Person”, 2016 *Out in the Woods, a short documentary by Maureen Gosling *An Essay by critic Kent Jones Why has A Poem is a Naked Person, a film Les Blank considered the greatest he ever made, remained virtually unknown and unseen, until now, over forty years after it was completed? An answer to this question can be found in the newly restored, Criterion released Blu-Ray DVD. It is clear that such a project would never have happened if it were not for the persistence and memory of “being there”, of Harrod Blank, Les Blank’s son. As a young boy, tagging along with his filmmaker dad in the backwaters of 1970’s Oklahoma he drew admiring portraits in magic marker of Leon Russell, the intended subject of his father’s film. It was the year following the release of Mad Dogs and Englishmen, a classic concert film starring Joe Cocker and Russell who at that time was at the peak of his fame. Russell was an accomplished pianist, session musician, and star performer who was in the process of building a top notch studio and music compound ninety minutes outside of Tulsa when he and his then-partner Denny Cordell commissioned Les Blank to make what they may have envisioned as a biopic with Leon Russell at the center.

  • Collection Highlights
    COLLECTION HIGHLIGHTS “LATINOS AND BASEBALL” COLLECTING INITIATIVE Latino baseball players have been interwoven in the fabric of Major League Baseball for years. They've been some of the greatest, well-known names in baseball history. To reflect and celebrate that rich history, the National Museum of American History (“NMAH”) in collaboration with the Smithsonian Latino Center, launched Latinos and Baseball: In the Barrios and the Big Leagues. The multi-year community collecting initiative focuses on the historic role that baseball has played as a social and cultural force within Latino communities across the nation. The project launched a series of collecting events in late February in San Bernardino, California. A second event will be held in Los Angeles on July 17, 2016, and a third will be held in Syracuse, New York, on September 15, 2016. The events are designed to generate interest in the initiative, build on community relationships, record oral histories, and identify objects for possible acquisition by local historical associations as well as for the Smithsonian collections. The collaborative initiative seeks to document stories from across the U.S. and Puerto Rico and plans to collect a number of objects that could include baseball equipment; stadium signs; game memorabilia, such as handmade or mass-produced jerseys and tickets; food vendor signs; home movies; and period photographs. Curators will select objects based on the stories they represent and the insight they provide into the personal, community, and national narratives of the national pastime. “Baseball has played a major role in everyday American life since the 1800s, providing a means of celebrating both national and ethnic identities and building communities,” said John Gray, director of NMAH.
