When the CBC recently aired the 1992 Christmas film, some viewers and Canadian media outlets noticed Trump’s scene had been cut out and wanted to know why - especially because the US leader had said on Tuesday it was an “honor” to be involved in the movie. “As is often the case with feature films adapted for television, ‘Home Alone 2’ was edited for time,” said CBC spokesman Chuck Thompson. “The scene with Donald Trump was one of several that In this photo taken on Dec 24, 2019, US President Donald Trump makes were cut from the movie as none of them were integral to the plot. a video call to troops stationed worldwide at the Mar-a-Lago estate in These edits were done in 2014, when we first acquired the film and Palm Beach, Florida. — AFP before Mr Trump was elected president” in 2016, Thompson said.

Keller: Stanley Kubrick & The Evolution of Critical Consensus Stanley Kubrick’s greatness as an American director precedes him to such an extent that the virtues of his films are rarely subjected to critique. Even laymen who have not followed his career that scrupulously or may not recognize his name at all would still likely regard The Shining, 2001, and perhaps Dr. Strangelove as benchmarks of their respective genres. The influence of Kubrick on pop culture is undeniable, but his films have not always enjoyed the fine repute they cherish today, since they tended to leave the first critics who saw them divided and conflicted. Examining contemporary critiques of the director’s filmography reveals not only aspects of his technique that may have been overlooked but also insightful constants about the process of criticism and the development of consensus. One convenient way to categorize Kubrick’s works emphasizes their timeline and relationship to the Motion Picture Association of America.

At the newspaper's height, circulation was approximatly 18,000 copies. The original editorial collective included Denis Lemon (editor), Martin Corbett - who later was an active member of ACT UP, David Seligman, a founder member of the London Gay Switchboard collective, Ian Dunn of the Scottish Minorities Group, Glenys Parry (national chair of CHE), Suki J. Pitcher, and Doug Pollard, who later went on to launch the weekly gay newspaper, Gay Week (affectionately known as Gweek). Amongst Gay News' early "Special Friends" were Graham Chapman of Monty Python's Flying Circus, his partner David Sherlock, and Antony Grey, secretary of the UK Homosexual Law Reform Society from 1962 to 1970. Gay News was the response to a nationwide demand by lesbians and gay men for news of the burgeoning liberation movement. The paper played a pivotal role in the struggle for gay rights in the 1970s in the UK. It was described by Alison Hennegan (who joined the newspaper as Assistant Features Editor and Literary Editor in June 1977) as the movement's "debating chamber".

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by De Montfort University Open Research Archive Stanley Kubrick: Producers and Production Companies Thesis submitted by James Fenwick In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy De Montfort University, September 2017 1 Abstract This doctoral thesis examines filmmaker Stanley Kubrick’s role as a producer and the impact of the industrial contexts upon the role and his independent production companies. The thesis represents a significant intervention into the understanding of the much-misunderstood role of the producer by exploring how business, management, working relationships and financial contexts influenced Kubrick’s methods as a producer. The thesis also shows how Kubrick contributed to the transformation of industrial practices and the role of the producer in Hollywood, particularly in areas of legal authority, promotion and publicity, and distribution. The thesis also assesses the influence and impact of Kubrick’s methods of producing and the structure of his production companies in the shaping of his own reputation and brand of cinema. The thesis takes a case study approach across four distinct phases of Kubrick’s career. The first is Kubrick’s early years as an independent filmmaker, in which he made two privately funded feature films (1951-1955). The second will be an exploration of the Harris-Kubrick Pictures Corporation and its affiliation with Kirk Douglas’ Bryna Productions (1956-1962). Thirdly, the research will examine Kubrick’s formation of Hawk Films and Polaris Productions in the 1960s (1962-1968), with a deep focus on the latter and the vital role of vice-president of the company.
