Cecil B. DeMille zei over haar: ‘She has the man- ner of a schoolgirl and the eyes of a sorceress.’ Dit jaar gaat Film Stars Don’t Die in Liverpool in première naar het gelijknamige boek van Peter Turner. In Film Stars Don’t Die in Liverpool speelt Annette Benning de rol van Gloria Grahame (geboren op 28 november 1923) in haar laatste levensjaren. Een mooie gelegenheid om het bijzondere verhaal van deze prachtige actrice nog eens te vertellen. Ze was geen klassieke Hollywood schone, maar niemand anders smeulde en gloeide zoals zij. Voor dit artikel heb ik vrijuit gegraaid uit de biografie Suicide Blonde—The Life of Gloria Grahame van Vin- cent Curcio. Zonder dit boek had ik niet zoveel details en citaten kunnen gebruiken. door Wim Jansen Gloria Grahame was inderdaad a man’s woman.

  • Member Calendar MAR
    Member Calendar MAR APR Mar–Apr 2019 “I never get over wondering at your prodigiousness,” MoMA founding director Alfred H. Barr Jr. mused admiringly to Lincoln Kirstein in 1945. Indeed, the extent of Kirstein’s influence on American culture in the 1930s and ’40s is hard to overstate. Best known for having cofounded, with the Russian choreographer George Balanchine, the School of American Ballet and the New York City Ballet, Kirstein was also a key figure in MoMA’s early history. Organizing exhibitions, writing catalogue essays, donating works to the Museum, and making acquisitions on its behalf, Kirstein championed a vision of modernism that favored figuration over abstraction and argued for an interdisciplinary marriage between the arts. Lincoln Kirstein’s Modern (Member Previews start March 13) invites you to rediscover rich areas of MoMA’s collection through the eyes of this impresario and tastemaker. The nearly 300 works on view include set and costume designs for the ballet; photography that explores American themes; sculpture that finds inspiration in folk art and classicism; finely rendered realist and magic-realist paintings; and the Latin American works that Kirstein purchased for the Museum in 1942. Some of these works might be old favorites, while others may represent new discoveries. The same is true for the Museum’s wide-ranging offerings this spring: the objects in The Value of Good Design may be things you use in your daily life; the paintings in Joan Miró: The Birth of the World may be familiar friends; while the recent acquisitions in New Order: Art and Technology in the Twenty-First Century have mostly not been seen before.

She developed assembly programs, bringing authors to talk about their books. Many years ago one of Linda’s daughters had a pen pal in Norway.

    Monday 25 July 2016, London. Ahead of Kirk Douglas’ 100th birthday this December, BFI Southbank pay tribute to this major Hollywood star with a season of 20 of his greatest films, running from 1 September – 4 October 2016. Over the course of his sixty year career, Douglas became known for playing iconic action heroes, and worked with the some of the greatest Hollywood directors of the 1940s and 1950s including Billy Wilder, Howard Hawks, Vincente Minnelli and Stanley Kubrick. Films being screened during the season will include musical drama Young Man with a Horn (Michael Curtiz, 1949) alongside Lauren Bacall and Doris Day, Stanley Kubrick’s epic Spartacus (1960), Champion (Mark Robson, 1949) for which he received the first of three Oscar® nominations for Best Actor, and the sci- fi family favourite 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (Richard Fleischer, 1954). The season will kick off with a special discussion event Kirk Douglas: The Movies, The Muscles, The Dimple; this event will see a panel of film scholars examine Douglas’ performances and star persona, and explore his particular brand of Hollywood masculinity. Also included in the season will be a screening of Seven Days in May (John Frankenheimer, 1964) which Douglas starred in opposite Ava Gardner; the screening will be introduced by English Heritage who will unveil a new blue plaque in honour of Ava Gardner at her former Knightsbridge home later this year. Born Issur Danielovich into a poor immigrant family in New York State, Kirk Douglas began his path to acting success on a special scholarship at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York City, where he met Betty Joan Perske (later to become better known as Lauren Bacall), who would play an important role in helping to launch his film career.
