  • The Green Sheet and Opposition to American Motion Picture Classification in the 1960S
    The Green Sheet and Opposition to American Motion Picture Classification in the 1960s By Zachary Saltz University of Kansas, Copyright 2011 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Film and Media Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. John Tibbetts ________________________________ Dr. Michael Baskett ________________________________ Dr. Chuck Berg Date Defended: 19 April 2011 ii The Thesis Committee for Zachary Saltz certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: The Green Sheet and Opposition to American Motion Picture Classification in the 1960s ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. John Tibbetts Date approved: 19 April 2011 iii ABSTRACT The Green Sheet was a bulletin created by the Film Estimate Board of National Organizations, and featured the composite movie ratings of its ten member organizations, largely Protestant and represented by women. Between 1933 and 1969, the Green Sheet was offered as a service to civic, educational, and religious centers informing patrons which motion pictures contained potentially offensive and prurient content for younger viewers and families. When the Motion Picture Association of America began underwriting its costs of publication, the Green Sheet was used as a bartering device by the film industry to root out municipal censorship boards and legislative bills mandating state classification measures. The Green Sheet underscored tensions between film industry executives such as Eric Johnston and Jack Valenti, movie theater owners, politicians, and patrons demanding more integrity in monitoring changing film content in the rapidly progressive era of the 1960s. Using a system of symbolic advisory ratings, the Green Sheet set an early precedent for the age-based types of ratings the motion picture industry would adopt in its own rating system of 1968.

    as much a part of MSU as Wells Hall Ramparts v. MSU v. The CIA The University On The Run The statements from the various protagonists since last week's article ap­ peared in Ramparts magazine on MSU's 1955-1962 Vietnam advisory project have been, to say the least, Interesting and varied. Moreover, they have stimulated, at long last, a discussion of the type of educational project rep­ resented byMSU'slrole In Vietnam and of the various influences on the opera­ tion and outcome of such projects. To aid this discussion, "The Paper" contributes the following series of excerpts.—The Editors, Accusations that the MSU project was a CIA front are "ridiculous/* (Artnur) Brandstatter (chairman, School of Police Administration and Public Safety) sand. "I don't think anyone can make this statement/' **I can honestly say that I donotknow that there were any CIA people work­ ing there. Many people who were hired for their technical assistance were U.S. civil servants, including people from departments such as the Army, where their background may have included intelligence training." • • • Referring to implications in the article that MSU started its Vietnam project solely for the prestige involved, (Charles) Killingsworth (former chairman, Economics Department, now professor of labor and industrial relations) said: 44l can say with my own personal knowledge that President Hannah was not eager to take on this responsibility, and did so only at the request of the U.S. government." The Ad The State News Refused To Print Killingsworth said that he himself was not eager to take the trip to Vietnam.

  • Cowboys and Comedy: the Simultaneous Deconstruction and Reinforcement of Generic Conventions in the Western Parody
    Turner | Cowboys and Comedy: The Simultaneous Deconstruction and Reinforcement of Generic Conventions in the Western Parody Cowboys and Comedy: The Simultaneous Deconstruction and Reinforcement of Generic Conventions in the Western Parody Matthew R. Turner Ohio University Almost as long as the Western has existed as a genre in Origins of Western Parody film, there has been a sub-genre of Western comedies to parody A parody is a comical imitation of a genre that uses its ex- the generic conventions inherent in the form. From as far back as isting codes to examine the subject in a humorous way. Parody the 1920s with Buster Keaton, continuing down to the present often exists simultaneously in conjunction with satire, but can be with Jackie Chan, the Western has been a target of satire and a distinguished from satire, which is designed more specifically to rich source for comedy. Comedy relies, to a large extent, on the point out vices, follies, or problems with conventional beliefs while reversal of expectations. Because of the highly formalized and parody is generally more lighthearted. Despite Western parodies’ codified conventions of the Western, it becomes a prime target tendency to undermine or make fun of the codes of the Western, for reversals of those expectations. By studying a representative they are still situated within the Western genre. That Western sample of Western parodies from the 1940s through 2000, this parodies are a sub-genre of the Western is supported by Cawelti’s paper will examine how Western parodies subvert the conven- argument that parodies are an inevitable part of the life cycle of a tions of the Western in ways that breathe new life into the genre.

  • 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.
