Perkins, Anthony (1932-1992) by Tina Gianoulis
Perkins, Anthony (1932-1992) by Tina Gianoulis Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2007 glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com The life and career of actor Anthony Perkins seems almost like a movie script from the times in which he lived. One of the dark, vulnerable anti-heroes who gained popularity during Hollywood's "post-golden" era, Perkins began his career as a teen heartthrob and ended it unable to escape the role of villain. In his personal life, he often seemed as tortured as the troubled characters he played on film, hiding--and perhaps despising--his true nature while desperately seeking happiness and "normality." Perkins was born on April 4, 1932 in New York City, the only child of actor Osgood Perkins and Janet Esseltyn Rane. His father died when he was only five, and Perkins was reared by his strong-willed and possibly abusive mother. He followed his father into the theater, joining Actors Equity at the age of fifteen and working backstage until he got his first acting roles in summer stock productions of popular plays like Junior Miss and My Sister Eileen. He continued to hone his acting skills while attending Rollins College in Florida, performing in such classics as Harvey and The Importance of Being Earnest. Perkins was an unhappy young man, and the theater provided escape from his loneliness and depression. "There was nothing about me I wanted to be," he told Mark Goodman in a People Weekly interview. "But I felt happy being somebody else." During his late teens, Perkins went to Hollywood and landed his first film role in the 1953 George Cukor production, The Actress, in which he appeared with Spencer Tracy. -
The Media World: a New Collaboration Was Born
The Media World: A New Collaboration Was Born MeCCSA and AMPE Joint Annual Conference. 5- 7 January 2005, University of Lincoln A report by Serena Formica, University of Nottingham, UK There was much anticipation and expectation leading up to the 2005 MeCCSA conference at the University of Lincoln. This was due to the event being the first joint MeCCSA (Media, Communications and Cultural Studies Association) and AMPE (Association of Media Practice Educators) conference. The purpose of this union was to highlight the common features of both organisations, such as interest in media, Cultural Studies, pedagogy -- all of them reflected in the numerous panels throughout the three-day meeting. Plenary sessions interspersed the many panels, the first of which was presented by Ursula Maier-Rabler (Director of the Centre for Advanced Studies and Research in Information and Communication Technologies and Society, University of Salzburg), who presented a paper entitled "Why do ICTs Matter? The Cultural-Social Milieu as Invisible Underpinning of New Information and Communication Technologies". Dr. Maier-Rabler highlighted the increasing importance of ICTs, considered as a Digital Network, characterised by its universality and non-linearity of contents. As Paul Virilio pointed out, ICTs are permeated by a constant acceleration, which emphasises its element of 'unfinishedness'. The cultural milieu surrounding ICTs was presented as divided into four major social-geographical areas: Social- conservative, Social-democratic, Protestant-liberal and Liberal-conservative. Maier-Rabler observed that the former belong to a collective form of State, whereas the latter belong to a form that is more individualistic. Furthermore, Dr. Maier-Rabler analysed ICTs' perspectives in terms of communication and infrastructure -- media (defined by a shift from programmes to services, media systems to infrastructure and recipient to users) and network (at a technical and social level). -

Epilogue itchcock and his works continue to experience life among generation Y Hand beyond, though it is admittedly disconcerting to walk into an undergraduate lecture hall and see few, if any, lights go on at the mention of his name. Disconcerting as it may be, all ill feelings are forgotten when I watch an auditorium of eighteen- to twenty-one-year-olds transported by the emotions, the humor, and the compulsions of his cinema. But certainly the college classroom is not the only guardian of Hitchcock ’ s fl ame. His fi lms still play at retrospectives, in fi lm festivals, in the rising number of fi lm studies classes in high schools, on Turner Classic Movies, and other networks devoted to the “ oldies. ” The wonderful Bates Motel has emerged as a TV serial prequel to Psycho , illustrating the formative years of Norman Bates; it will see a second season in the coming months. Alfred Hitchcock Presents and The Alfred Hitchcock Hour are still in strong syndication. Both his fi lms and television shows do very well in collections and singly on Amazon and other e-commerce sites. -

Music, Memory and Repression in Hitchcock’s Vertigo (1958) 1 Music, Memory and Repression in Hitchcock’s Vertigo (1958) Christophe Gelly Introduction 1 Alfred Hitchcock somehow retained a connection with the aesthetics of the silent film era in which he made his debut throughout his career, which can account for his reluctance to include dialogues when their content can be conveyed visually.1 His reluctance never concerned music, however, since music was performed during the screening of silent films generally, though an experimental drive in the director’s perspective on that subject can be observed through the fact for instance that The Birds (1963) dispenses -

Das Remake Als Fetischkunst Gus Van Sants »Psycho« Und Die Absonderlichen Serialitäten Des Hollywood-Kinos
FORSCHUNGSBEITRAG DAS REMAKE ALS FETISCHKUNST Gus Van Sants »Psycho« und die absonderlichen Serialitäten des Hollywood-Kinos Frank Kelleter 154 RKEMA ING ALS SERIELLE PRAXIS Film-Remakes und Film-Fortsetzungen verkörpern den kommerziellen Prag- matismus des Hollywood-Kinos in schamloser Manier. Kein Wunder, dass sich Feuilleton und Filmwissenschaft lange Zeit nicht mit ihnen anfreunden konnten. Noch heute muss jeder Film, der eine Zahl im Titel trägt, darauf gefasst sein, als Beispiel für die Einfallslosigkeit einer ganzen, eigentlich geldgeilen Industrie herzuhalten. Problematisch ist diese Haltung nicht, weil sie falsch wäre – Remakes und Fortsetzungen operieren tatsächlich als ›pre-sold com- modities‹ –, sondern weil Einfallsreichtum in der Geschichte des populären Films eigentlich immer schon an profitorientierte Produktionskulturen gebun- den war. Wie unbehaglich dieser Gedanke in cinephilen Kreisen weiterhin sein mag, lässt sich daran ablesen, dass die Figur des sich gegen ökonomische Zwänge behauptenden ›Auteurs‹ die Rede über Filme selbst dort noch orga- nisiert, wo die proklamierten filmtheoretischen Überzeugungen schon längst das Gegenteil behaupten. Das Problem filmischer Autorschaft steht im Zentrum von Gus Van Sants »Psycho« und vermengt sich dort in irritierender Weise mit Fragen medialer Selbstreflexion und narrativer Fortsetzungslogik. Um zu verstehen, was hier geschieht, bietet es sich an, das Format ›Neuverfilmung‹ zunächst einmal seri- alitätstheoretisch zu beschreiben. Auf den ersten Blick ist das eine kontrain- tuitive Perspektive: Remakes behaupten ja in aller Regel nicht, Episoden oder Fortsetzungen eines größeren Erzählganzen zu sein. Dennoch fällt es schwerer, POP. Kultur und Kritik ◆ Heft 7 Herbst 2015 ◆ S. 154–173 ◆ © transcript zwischen einer Neuverfilmung und einer Fortsetzung formal zu unterscheiden, als diese scheinbar eindeutigen Begriffe vermuten lassen (Verevis 2006a; siehe auch einzelne Beiträge in Heinze/Krämer 2015). -

Deposit Guide Contact: email ON THE MEANING OF A CUT: TOWARDS A THEORY OF EDITING Bartłomiej Dziadosz A dissertation submitted to the Department of English and Humanities in candidacy for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Birkbeck, University of London October 2018 Abstract I confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own and the work of other persons is appropriately acknowledged. This thesis looks at a variety of discourses about film editing in order to explore the possibility, on the one hand, of drawing connections between them, and on the other, of addressing some of their problematic aspects. Some forms of fragmentation existed from the very beginnings of the history of the moving image, and the thesis argues that forms of editorial control were executed by early exhibitors, film pioneers, writers, and directors, as well as by a fully- fledged film editor. This historical reconstruction of how the profession of editor evolved sheds light on the specific aspects of their work. Following on from that, it is proposed that models of editing fall under two broad paradigms: of montage and continuity. -
The Girl.My Final Title Page
THE GIRL by Gwyneth Hughes 8th January 2012 hughes/the girl 13.01.2012 page 1 1 INT. TV SCREEN - DAY 1 Formless shadows dancing in a soft background. Greys, slowly coalescing into blacks and whites. The sound, a patchwork of muffled voices and barely heard music. An impression of wings, and flight. Figures begin to form, but indistinctly, as we realize we are watching a television screen come into focus. It seems there may be two figures involved. Almost, but not quite, two faces. HITCH (V.O.) I’ve got an idea for a love scene, where the two heads will start apart, and then gradually come together. Now the TV screen resolves to show a commercial featuring a beautiful young woman, TIPPI HEDREN, aged 31, carefree and smiling as she looks into the camera. THE GIRL 2 INT. HITCHCOCK HOUSE - KITCHEN - DAY 2 Tippi’s commercial plays on TV in the corner as ALFRED HITCHCOCK, aged 62, washes up the morning coffee cups. He wears an apron over his usual dark suit, white shirt, dark tie. Only at private domestic moments like these do we ever see him without his jacket. He is speaking enthusiastically to someone outside the room. HITCH A quick pan, do you see, from one face to the other, whipping the camera, and as the two faces get closer together, the whipping gets less and less till it’s just a vibration... His wife ALMA brings him a final dirty cup as he finishes his perfect clearing up routine. She is 61, small, bright, determined, unglamorous, and English. -
A Score Complete Without Themes: Henry Mancini and the Frenzy Experience
A SCORE COMPLETE WITHOUT THEMES: HENRY MANCINI AND THE FRENZY EXPERIENCE. PATRICIA CLARE WHEELER-CONDON A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN MUSIC YORK UNIVERSITY, TORONTO, ONTARIO APRIL, 2013 © Patricia Wheeler-Condon, 2013 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the musical features of, and circumstances surrounding, the film score composed in 1971 by Henry Mancini for director Alfred Hitchcock's ( penultimate work, Frenzy. Mancini's music was rejected by Hitchcock, and replaced with a markedly different work written by British composer Ron Goodwin. A summation of characteristic traits emerging from Mancini's compositional style is herewith considered, as recurring features found in his thematic writing - aspects of melody, harmony, rhythm, timbre, and form-were most apparent to the non-musician film directors who engaged his services. This summation also includes an examination oft4e composer's dramatic underscore writing; an aspect of film music often overlooked in its minutiae by viewers and filmmakers alike, and, in the case of Mancini's Frenzy music, characteristic of his scores for Laslo Bene_dek's 1971 production, The Night Visitor, and Terrence Young's Wait Until Dark, from 1967. Mancini's Frenzy cue sheets, holograph, and recording were supplied by the composer's estate, allowing for an analysis which considers cue placement and length, systems of pitch and rhythmic organisation, aspects of arrangement and orchestration, and conducting and recording methods as practised by this composer. A comparison to the Goodwin score, reproduced by way of transcription from the film, is undertaken in order to explore aspects of filmic point-of-view as they play on the composer of its accompanying music, and to attempt a rationalisation of .Hitchcock's displeasure with Mancini's music.
