  • Letter from the President Holiday Party
    SAUGATUCK-DOUGLAS HISTORICAL SOCIETY | BOX 617 | DOUGLAS, MI 49406 | 269-857-5751 | www.sdhistoricalsociety.org DECEMBER 2008 LETTER FROM THE HOLIDAY PARTY PRESIDENT Dear SDHS Members, I was trying to write a SDHS parody to the story, The Night Before Christmas, but just couldn’t get it to rhyme the way it should and get the message across. Que Sera, Sera didn’t fit this time. I know that a newsletter in December is something that has not been done in the past, but we want to continue to keep the lines of communication open all year long. The Society is busy and many things are happening and much will be happening in 2009. I guess you could say this is a small historical event. The recent Holiday Party was a success and it was wonderful to see so many of you come out, in spite of the weather. A Thank You to everyone who helped plan the evening and to Mike Johnson and his hardworking staff at Coral Gables. SDHS continues to move forward and you should all have received your membership renewal information in the mail recently. We hope that you will mail your renewal back to us soon. Your membership is important to the success of the Society. If you did not receive one, please let us know by emailing us at [email protected] or calling the SDHS office at 269.857.5751. For those who have responded, we thank you. Now for a plug --- we are in need of volunteers to plan the 2009 St.

  • Raoul Walsh to Attend Opening of Retrospective Tribute at Museum
    The Museum of Modern Art jl west 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modernart NO. 34 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE RAOUL WALSH TO ATTEND OPENING OF RETROSPECTIVE TRIBUTE AT MUSEUM Raoul Walsh, 87-year-old film director whose career in motion pictures spanned more than five decades, will come to New York for the opening of a three-month retrospective of his films beginning Thursday, April 18, at The Museum of Modern Art. In a rare public appearance Mr. Walsh will attend the 8 pm screening of "Gentleman Jim," his 1942 film in which Errol Flynn portrays the boxing champion James J. Corbett. One of the giants of American filmdom, Walsh has worked in all genres — Westerns, gangster films, war pictures, adventure films, musicals — and with many of Hollywood's greatest stars — Victor McLaglen, Gloria Swanson, Douglas Fair­ banks, Mae West, James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, Marlene Dietrich and Edward G. Robinson, to name just a few. It is ultimately as a director of action pictures that Walsh is best known and a growing body of critical opinion places him in the front rank with directors like Ford, Hawks, Curtiz and Wellman. Richard Schickel has called him "one of the best action directors...we've ever had" and British film critic Julian Fox has written: "Raoul Walsh, more than any other legendary figure from Hollywood's golden past, has truly lived up to the early cinema's reputation for 'action all the way'...." Walsh's penchant for action is not surprising considering he began his career more than 60 years ago as a stunt-rider in early "westerns" filmed in the New Jersey hills.

Van Jordan Rosal: Patrick Rosal A: Speaker from audience Levy: Welcome to Our Life in Poetry: New Poets/New Poetics. I must say this is the youngest group of poets we’ve had here at the Philoctetes Center, and you’re also alive, which is different than some of the other poets. We’re really working in that direction. We want the living. I’m very proud to introduce Michael Braziller. Mike Braziller is president and publisher of Persea Books, a literary publishing company that he founded in 1975. Mike will moderate tonight’s panel and introduce our other distinguished—I don’t know how to put this—young poets. Thanks, Mike. Braziller: Thanks, Frank, and I’d like to thank Ed Nersessian, Ellen Fertig, Adam Ludwig and Polly Rosenwaike for their help—and Patricia Brody was a special help organizing this particular panel. This is a Philoctetes poetry first, a reading by three accomplished young writers, followed by discussion of formative pressures and influences, and what of their lives has come into their poems. Each will read for about ten or fifteen minutes, and then talk for a little while, generally about when poetry first occurred in their lives and about their life in poetry. We’ll look a little—it’s inevitable—at the regional, the local, family, street, neighborhoods, small town, coming of age, along with social awareness, politics, social criticism.

  • Greatest Year with 476 Films Released, and Many of Them Classics, 1939 Is Often Considered the Pinnacle of Hollywood Filmmaking
    The Greatest Year With 476 films released, and many of them classics, 1939 is often considered the pinnacle of Hollywood filmmaking.

  • Film Essay for "Ride the High Country"
    Ride the High Country By Stephen Prince “Ride the High Country” is the eye of the hurricane, the stillness at the center of the storm of transgression that Sam Peckinpah brought to American film in the late 1960s. That it hails from the on- set of that decade and of Peckinpah’s career as a feature film director ac- counts for its singular grace and affabil- ity. The serenity of its outlook and the surety of its convictions about the nature of right and wrong place it far outside the tortured worlds inscribed by his sub- sequent films. At the same time, it shows clearly the thematic obsessions and stylistic hallmarks that he would make his own when American society began to come apart in ways that ena- bled him to become the great poet of Joel McCrea and Randolph Scott as aging hired guns.
