Hal Roach’s OUR GANG oeuvre is generally treated as a body by reference works, and scant detail is available on the individual films. Presumably the Leonard Maltin and Richard W Benn book “Our Gang – the Life and Times of the Little Rascals” would meet this need, but I’ve so far been unable to locate a copy. In descending order – Mickey Daniels was 11, Johnny Downs 11, Joe Cobb 7, Jackie Condon 7 and “Farina” Hoskins 5. See OUR GANG – GENERAL NOTE for comments and a list of all known titles, and subject index under COMEDY and SILENT CINEMA. .

Winkler Productions Directed and written by Walt Disney. Animated by Ub Iwerks, Rollin Ham Hamilton, Thurston Harper, Hugh Harman, & Rudolf Ising. Produced by Margaret J. Winkler With Margie Gay as Alice. Music and effects soundtrack added by Raytone Productions, 1930 Left to protect Alice’s house, Julius the cat soon falls into a vat of home-brew liquor in the basement and drinks himself into oblivion. The rats, free to play, entertain themselves by dancing, playing phonograph records, cavorting with the player piano, and using the bathtub for a swimming pool. Soon the party gets completely out of control. (Why Alice was brewing alcohol in her basement remains an open question.) “Speaking of his studio in later years, Disney was fond of saying that ‘it all started with a little mouse’ – but in fact the foundation was laid in 1924 by a little girl.” – Merritt & Kaufman, Walt in Wonderland Young Walt Disney broke into the movie business in Kansas City, as an illustrator for a company that produced glass slides and advertising shorts for theaters. Along with his buddy Fred Harman, he struck out on his own, hoping to jump-start their new company with a partly-animated comical short called Laugh-O-Grams, produced for the influential local theater owner, Frank L. Newman. This was successful enough that they were able to secure funding to hire additional animators, including now- legendary pioneers Ubbe “Ub” Iwerks, Hugh Harman, Rudolph Ising, and Friz Freleng.

  • De Representatie Van Our Gang's “Sunshine Sammy”
    De representatie van Our Gang’s “Sunshine Sammy” Representatieonderzoek in Amerikaanse filmtijdschriften naar de verhouding tussen zwarte en witte acteurs van Our Gang Hannah Bremer (5705339) Begeleider: Judith Thissen ME3V15026 BA-eindwerkstuk Tweede lezer: André van der Velden Media en cultuur 2018/2019 Inleverdatum: 24-01-19 Blok 2 Woordenaantal: 8833 Abstract In dit bachelor eindwerkstuk is door middel van Amerikaanse filmtijdschriften – vakpers en filmfantijdschriften - onderzoek gedaan naar de representatie van de zwarte acteur Ernie Morrison. Hij speelde in de komedie Our Gang en stond daar bekend als “Sunshine Sammy.” Our Gang was een serie korte films die vanaf 1922 geproduceerd werd en ging over buurtkinderen die samen avonturen beleefden. Morrison’s personage is onderzocht door een vergelijking te maken met de representatie van zwarte acteur Allen Hoskins (“Farina”) en de witte acteurs Mickey Daniels en Jackie Condon. Volgens filmhistoricus Donald Bogle worden zowel Ernie Morrison als Allen Hoskins in Our Gang neergezet als pickaninny, een zwart stereotype. Hoewel Morrison wordt besproken in publicaties over Our Gang, is onderzoek naar zijn persoon en personage in de serie tot dusver beperkt. In de literatuur wordt al wel uitgebreid aandacht besteed aan het personage van de zwarte Hoskins (“Farina”). In de tijd dat de films met Our Gang werden vertoond, was zwarte stereotypering aan de orde van de dag binnen Hollywood. Hier hadden ook Morrison en Hoskins mee te maken. In dit eindwerkstuk laat ik echter zien dat Hoskins zwaarder onderhevig was aan deze stereotypering dan Morrison, maar dat beiden sterker gestereotypeerd werden dan de witte acteurs in de serie. Door de bestudering van namen wordt allereerst duidelijk dat in de bij- en artiestennamen een onderscheid ligt tussen de zwarte en witte acteurs en tussen beide zwarte acteurs.
