German Identity and (Re)unification in the Films of Christian Schlingensief. Bertolt Brecht, the German playwright, made a note about his play The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui, written in 1941. The play depicts a Chicago gangster boss, clearly recognizable as a persiflage of Adolf Hitler. Brecht writes: “The big political criminals should be sacrificed, and first of all to ridicule. Because they are not big political criminals, they are perpetrators of big political crimes, which is something completely different.” (Brecht 1967, 1177). In 1997 the German filmmaker, theatre director and professional provocateur Christoph Schlingensief created the performance Mein Filz, mein Fett, mein Hase at the Documenta X – the notoriously political episode of the art manifestation in Kassel, Germany – as a tribute to Fluxus-artist Joseph Beuys.

    Chapter I: Introduction Throughout history, there have been sporadic pockets or concentrations of intense intellectual activity around the globe. From Athens to Vienna, cities have often been associated with the historical eras in which they excelled. For example, the 5th century BC dramatists in Greece such as Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides helped to make Athens a leader in artistic creation during its prime. Vienna, the European capital of the music world during the 18th century, was a center of artistic creativity that included composers such as Mozart and Haydn. During the 1920s, the Weimar Republic held the distinction of being the epicenter of human thought and art, with Berlin firmly at the heart of this activity. A few of the familiar names connected to this era in German history are Thomas Mann, Albert Einstein, Theodor Adorno, Wassily Kandinsky, Lyonel Feininger, Fritz Lang, and F.W. Murnau. In addition to these individuals, many artistic and intellectual schools such as German Expressionism, the Frankfurt School, the Bauhaus, and “Der Sturm” are associated with the Weimar Republic. Socially, the period represents an equally intense atmosphere. The Weimar Republic thrived on entertainment, clubs, and night-life in general. Berlin was at the forefront of urban entertainment in Germany, rivaling the other major cities of the Western world. The nightscape of Berlin was marked by lighted signs advertising small cabaret clubs and lavish musicals. However, the streets were also lined with disabled war veterans, prostitutes, and businessmen alike, reflecting an increase of prostitution, debauchery and crime of which all are in some way connected to the unbelievable inflation that permeated all layers of social, cultural and political life in Weimar Germany during the Republic’s first few years.

  • GSC Films: S-Z
    GSC Films: S-Z Saboteur 1942 Alfred Hitchcock 3.0 Robert Cummings, Patricia Lane as not so charismatic love interest, Otto Kruger as rather dull villain (although something of prefigure of James Mason’s very suave villain in ‘NNW’), Norman Lloyd who makes impression as rather melancholy saboteur, especially when he is hanging by his sleeve in Statue of Liberty sequence. One of lesser Hitchcock products, done on loan out from Selznick for Universal. Suffers from lackluster cast (Cummings does not have acting weight to make us care for his character or to make us believe that he is going to all that trouble to find the real saboteur), and an often inconsistent story line that provides opportunity for interesting set pieces – the circus freaks, the high society fund-raising dance; and of course the final famous Statue of Liberty sequence (vertigo impression with the two characters perched high on the finger of the statue, the suspense generated by the slow tearing of the sleeve seam, and the scary fall when the sleeve tears off – Lloyd rotating slowly and screaming as he recedes from Cummings’ view). Many scenes are obviously done on the cheap – anything with the trucks, the home of Kruger, riding a taxi through New York. Some of the scenes are very flat – the kindly blind hermit (riff on the hermit in ‘Frankenstein?’), Kruger’s affection for his grandchild around the swimming pool in his Highway 395 ranch home, the meeting with the bad guys in the Soda City scene next to Hoover Dam. The encounter with the circus freaks (Siamese twins who don’t get along, the bearded lady whose beard is in curlers, the militaristic midget who wants to turn the couple in, etc.) is amusing and piquant (perhaps the scene was written by Dorothy Parker?), but it doesn’t seem to relate to anything.

  • PRESS RELEASE Classic Horror Film, Nosferatu, Being Shown at Stambaugh Auditorium with Live Organ Accompaniment
    PRESS RELEASE Classic horror film, Nosferatu, being shown at Stambaugh Auditorium with live organ accompaniment Contact: Kelly Fertig Secondary Contact: Matt Pagac Director of Marketing & Advertising General Manager Stambaugh Auditorium Stambaugh Auditorium [email protected] [email protected] Telephone: 330-747-5175 Telephone: 330-747-5175 For Immediate Release: On Sunday, October 23rd at 4pm, Stambaugh Auditorium will present the classic, silent, horror film, Nosferatu featuring live organ accompaniment by Peter Richard Conte. While the film is free to the public, tickets are required. Tickets are available now through the Florence and Ward Beecher Box Office at Stambaugh Auditorium. This classic, silent film follows the tale of Thomas Hutter as he tries to sell a house across from his own to the mysterious Count Orlok who lives in a remote Transylvania castle. During his visit with the Count, Hutter discovers strange behaviors by Orlok and begins to suspect that he may in fact be Nosferatu, a vampire. Orlok becomes fascinated by Hutter’s wife after seeing a photo of her, and Hutter is hurt as he escapes returning to save his wife. Shot in 1921 and originally released in 1922, Nosferatu was directed by F.W. Murnau. Unable to attain the rights to Bram Stoker’s version of Dracula, the names and titles of characters were changed while the story’s vampire premise remained. Stoker’s family successfully sued and the ruling was that all copies of the film be destroyed. A few copies managed to survive. The film stars Max Schreck as Count Orlok, Gustav von Wangenheim as Thomas Hutter, and Greta Schroder as Ellen Hutter.

  • Murnau, Friedrich Wilhelm (1888-1931) by Daryl Chin
    Murnau, Friedrich Wilhelm (1888-1931) by Daryl Chin Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. A publicity portrait of F. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. W. Murnau (1929). Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Acclaimed as the greatest director of the German Expressionist period (1919-1933), F.W. Murnau created the first masterpiece of the horror film, his exquisitely stylized Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens (1921). Shooting on location, Murnau employed the limited special effects available at that time to create an atmosphere of genuine disquiet. The performance of Max Schreck remains unparalleled in its eerie malevolence. Because of copyright difficulties with the Bram Stoker estate, Nosferatu had limited release worldwide. No such problems impeded the release of Der letzte Mann (1924; American title: The Last Laugh), universally acclaimed as possibly the greatest film yet made upon its worldwide release. What is remarkable about Der letzte Mann is that the story is told without titles: this tale of an elderly man's fall from his position as doorman (epitomized by the elaborate uniform he wears for his job) to a subsidiary position as lavatory attendant (symbolized by the stripping of his uniform) is told with brilliant incisiveness through camera movement, visual composition, and lighting, all employed to provide a subjective perspective to the narrative. This film established its star, Emil Jannings, as a major international film actor, and led to his coming to America (where he would win the first Academy Award for Best Actor). Jannings' status was further established in Murnau's film of Tartuffe (1925), a fluid but somber version of the Molière play.

  • The Return of the Corpses. Nosferatu, Phantom Der Nacht (Werner Herzog)
    The Corona Crisis in Light of the Law-as-Culture Paradigm http://www.recht-als-kultur.de/de/aktuelles/ The Return of the Corpses. Nosferatu, Phantom der Nacht (Werner Herzog) Alexandre Vanautgaerden It's hard to be sententious or a preacher while people are dying. Dead people, who we don't see. In Wuhan, the epicenter of the pandemic, the real surprise was the thousands of funeral urns that appeared after the deconfinement. The corpses, reduced to ashes, came to unmask the lie of Chinese power about the real number of deaths1. On Good Friday, we heard a singular St. John Passion by Johann Sebastian Bach. In the empty St. Thomas Church in Leipzig, a tenor sang alone, accompanied by a harpsichordist and a xylophonist2. Turning away from the nave, without any congregation or music lovers, Benedikt Kristjánsson sings the first chorus (Herr, unser Herrscher) in front of the church choir. He is filmed from behind, his long hair falling over his shoulders. The slow gestures of the singer, his movements that seem choreographed, resonate with the portrait of Christ transmitted by Renaissance and Baroque painting. For more than a month now, thousands of texts have been written about coronavirus all over the world. Our society largely rejects the idea of God. The virus crept into the center a deserted sanctuary. Thousands of texts are now converging on it. Biologists, virologists, sociologists, politicians, journalists, all write and express themselves, with as much passion as the theologians of the past. Faced with the arbitrariness of death, everyone tries to make up for the absence of meaning by looking for a historical or literary referent.
