  • Jean Harlow ~ 20 Films
    Jean Harlow ~ 20 Films Harlean Harlow Carpenter - later Jean Harlow - was born in Kansas City, Missouri on 3 March 1911. After being signed by director Howard Hughes, Harlow's first major appearance was in Hell's Angels (1930), followed by a series of critically unsuccessful films, before signing with Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer in 1932. Harlow became a leading lady for MGM, starring in a string of hit films including Red Dust (1932), Dinner At Eight (1933), Reckless (1935) and Suzy (1936). Among her frequent co-stars were William Powell, Spencer Tracy and, in six films, Clark Gable. Harlow's popularity rivalled and soon surpassed that of her MGM colleagues Joan Crawford and Norma Shearer. By the late 1930s she had become one of the biggest movie stars in the world, often nicknamed "The Blonde Bombshell" and "The Platinum Blonde" and popular for her "Laughing Vamp" movie persona. She died of uraemic poisoning on 7 June 1937, at the age of 26, during the filming of Saratoga. The film was completed using doubles and released a little over a month after Harlow's death. In her brief life she married and lost three husbands (two divorces, one suicide) and chalked up 22 feature film credits (plus another 21 short / bit-part non-credits, including Chaplin's City Lights). The American Film Institute (damning with faint praise?) ranked her the 22nd greatest female star in Hollywood history. LIBERTY, BACON GRABBERS and NEW YORK NIGHTS (all 1929) (1) Liberty (2) Bacon Grabbers (3) New York Nights (Harlow left-screen) A lucky few aspiring actresses seem to take the giant step from obscurity to the big time in a single bound - Lauren Bacall may be the best example of that - but for many more the road to recognition and riches is long and grinding.

  • Pepys Film Fantasy Card Game
    PEPYS FILM FANTASY CARD GAME A little bit about the films depicted in the game THE HARDYS RIDE HIGH The Hardys Ride High was the 6th in the series of films about the Hardy family. In it the family move to Detroit and stay in a mansion awaiting news of a $2 million legacy. Once again, as in all the series of films, there is a moral to the plot. Life is best spent in helping each other and living in the “American Way”. TARZAN IN EXILE This film was to be called Tarzan in Exile, but before release it was changed to Tarzan Finds a Son. This was partly because the emphasis in the film was more on the boy than on Jane. Maureen O’Sullivan had been expressing doubts about playing Jane anymore and played a more minor role in this film than the previous releases. Johnny Weissmuller made 12 Tarzan films altogether but Maureen O’Sullivan, who had already made 3 with him before this one, made only 6 in all. The plot revolved around the discovery by Cheetah, Tarzan’s chimpanzee friend, of a young boy as the only survivor of an aircraft crash. Tarzan and Jane name him “Boy” and begin to teach him Jungle Craft. Five years later a search party turns up looking for the boy who is Lord Greystoke and the inheritor of a fortune. This is a big departure from Edgar Rice Burroughs books because in those Tarzan himself is Lord Greystoke. After defending Boy from murderous relatives Jane takes him safely back to civilization.

  • Mogambo (John Ford, 1953) and the Last King of Scotland (Kevin
    1 AFRICA IN THE MOVIES: Red Dust (Victor Fleming, 1932); Mogambo (John Ford, 1953); Hotel Rwanda (Terry George, 2004); The Constant Gardener (Fernando Meirelles, 2005); The Last King of Scotland (Kevin Macdonald, 2006); Blood Diamond (Edward Zwick, 2006); and White Material (Claire Denis, 2009) Mogambo is very entertaining, as long as you abandon all memories of Jane Goodall and Jomo Kenyatta. (Clark Gable is taking Ava Gardner, Grace Kelly, and Donald Sinden on an expedition upcountry in East Africa. They’re in a canoe. He has just explained, by remote implication, what female circumcision is for). KELLY: Oh, I think I understand. GABLE: Sorry to be so blunt about it. KELLY: No, no, no – it was my denseness – I should have realised – GARDNER: Brother! I can take your Cook’s tour round the zoo, but when you come to this mental striptease and (glances at Kelly) hiding behind Louisa May Alcott, I wanna powder. GABLE: Watch it! Hippo! (Hippo attacks canoe. Gardner falls backwards with legs in air.) John Ford is interested in the natives in Africa the way he’s elsewhere interested in redskins in Monument Valley. African people are on a level with African animals. Gable’s a big game trapper (not hunter – he brings ’em back alive, for zoos and circuses) and Ford films the scores of men whom he employs the same way he films the elephants and gazelles: without making any distinction between the men and the animals. The animals are never seen in the same shots as the artistes. Often the artistes are acting against blue screens.

    MOVIES ARE A HIT Wacky comedies, lav- ish musicals, love stories, and gangster films all vied for the attention of the moviegoing public during the New Deal years. Following the end of silent films and the rise of “talk- ing” pictures, new stars such as Clark Gable, Marlene Dietrich, and James Cagney rose from Hollywood, the center of the film industry. These stars helped launch a new era of glamour and sophistication in Hollywood. Some films made during the 1930s offered pure escape from the hard realities of the Depression by presenting visions of wealth, romance, and good times. Perhaps the most famous film of the era, and one of ▼ the most popular of all time, was Gone With Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh starred in Gone With the Wind, a the Wind (1939). Another film, Flying Down sweeping drama about life among Southern plantation owners to Rio (1933), was a light romantic comedy during the Civil War. featuring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, who went on to make many movies together, becoming America’s favorite dance partners. Other notable movies made during the 1930s include The Wizard of Oz (1939) and Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937), which showcased the dazzling animation of Walt Disney. Comedies—such as Monkey Business (1931) and Duck Soup (1931), starring the zany Marx Brothers—became especially popular. So did films that combined escapist appeal with more realistic plots and settings. Americans flocked to see gangster films that presented images of the dark, gritty streets and looming skyscrapers of urban America. These movies fea- tured hard-bitten characters struggling to succeed in a harsh HISTORICAL environment where they faced difficulties that Depression-era audiences could easily understand.

  • Remembering Movie Stars
    Remembering Movie Stars Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers are considered the greatest dance team in history. Together, they established a new type of musical and dance comedy in Hollywood. Fred Astaire and Ginger Rodgers developed a dance style that incorporated vaudeville, ballroom dancing, tap dancing, soft shoe, and ballet. Fred Astaire was more accomplished, using his experience in ballet. Ginger Rogers perfectly followed Fred Astaire’s lead, allowing the duo to appear flawless. Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers appeared in 10 films together, including: Flying Down to Rio, Top Hat, Swing Time, and Shall We Dance. Movies consisted of numerous dance numbers which were assimilated into the plot. Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers were active in Hollywood after their dance partnership ended. Fred Astaire continued dancing and appeared in over 40 movies. A talented actress, Ginger Rogers accepted an Academy Award for Kitty Foyle in 1940. “Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers.” Gale: Biography in Context. Web. 25 Jan. 2016. James Cagney James Cagney’s lasting image of twentieth-century film is of being a tough-guy. James Cagney played complex and multi-dimensional characters. James Cagney’s first starring role was as a gangster in The Public Enemy in 1931. Warner Brothers then changed the image of James Cagney to a common man trying to make it in the United States. During 1932-1939, James Cagney appeared in 25 films, including roles as a hardworking Irish American and as an outlaw who later reformed to do the right thing. During WWII, the image of James Cagney evolved into a positive American figure who supported the Allies against the Axis powers.
