  • Mean Streets: Death and Disfiguration in Hawks's Scarface
    Mean Streets: Death and Disfiguration in Hawks's Scarface ASBJØRN GRØNSTAD Consider this paradox: in Howard Hawks' Scarface, The Shame of the Nation, violence is virtually all-encompassing, yet it is a film from an era before American movies really got violent. There are no graphic close-ups of bullet wounds or slow-motion dissection of agonized faces and bodies, only a series of abrupt, almost perfunctory liquidations seemingly devoid of the heat and passion that characterize the deaths of the spastic Lyle Gotch in The Wild Bunch or the anguished Mr. Orange, slowly bleeding to death, in Reservoir Dogs. Nonetheless, as Bernie Cook correctly points out, Scarface is the most violent of all the gangster films of the eatly 1930s cycle (1999: 545).' Hawks's camera desists from examining the anatomy of the punctured flesh and the extended convulsions of corporeality in transition. The film's approach, conforming to the period style of ptc-Bonnie and Clyde depictions of violence, is understated, euphemistic, in its attention to the particulars of what Mark Ledbetter sees as "narrative scarring" (1996: x). It would not be illegitimate to describe the form of violence in Scarface as discreet, were it not for the fact that appraisals of the aesthetics of violence are primarily a question of kinds, and not degrees. In Hawks's film, as we shall see, violence orchestrates the deep structure of the narrative logic, yielding an hysterical form of plotting that hovers between the impulse toward self- effacement and the desire to advance an ethics of emasculation. Scarface is a film in which violence completely takes over the narrative, becoming both its vehicle and its determination.

  • I Stick My Neck out for Nobody

With permission of the publisher, W. W. Norton & Company, Inc. All rights reserved. Chapter 3 I Stick My Neck Out for Nobody Propertyuring of the W. 1930s, W. and intoNorton the early ’40s,& Company as the Great D Depression continued to cast its long shadow and dis- tressing memories of the Great War were still fresh in the minds of most Americans, politicians and the public at large were disinclined to meddle with the political affairs of Europe. Even after Hitler’s stunning ascent in Germany in January 1933, and the gradual rise of fascism in Italy, Americans showed little interest in waging an opposition. Hollywood, for its part, was no exception. Most studios, still reliant on sig- nificant revenue streams from the European export market, which into the mid-1930s constituted 30 to 40 percent of its box-office profits, fiercely avoided subjects that could be- con strued as offensive or insensitive. A typical attitude, voiced by M-G-M producer Irving Thalberg after returning from a trip to Germany in 1934, was “Hitler and Hitlerism will pass.” The 85 WellAlwaysHaveCasablanca_txt_final.indd 85 11/10/16 2:14 PM We’ll Always Have Casablanca imposition of the anti-Jewish Nuremberg Laws in 1935 didn’t stop most studios from continuing to retain cordial business ties with Nazi Germany, nor did the ruthless expansion of the Third Reich. “Fascism tipped the European applecart,” wrote journalist Helen Zigmond in a sobering report from December 1938, several months after the Anschluss and just weeks after the violent pogroms of Kristallnacht, “and Hollywood, instead of crying out against the bunglers, still scrambles for the fruit.” Although not without fault, Warner Bros.

  • Cuban Missile Crisis
    Cuban Missile Crisis The Cuban Missile Crisis, also known as the October 1 Earlier actions by the United Crisis (Spanish: Crisis de octubre), The Missile Scare, States or the Caribbean Crisis (Russian: Карибский кризис, tr. Karibskiy krizis), was a 13-day (October 14–28, 1962) confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union over Soviet ballistic missiles deployed in Cuba. It played out on television worldwide and was the closest the Cold War came to escalating into a full-scale nuclear war. In response to the failed Bay of Pigs Invasion of 1961, and the presence of American Jupiter ballistic missiles in Italy and Turkey against the USSR with Moscow within range, Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev decided to agree to Cuba’s request to place nuclear missiles in Cuba to deter future harassment of Cuba. An agreement was reached during a secret meeting between Khrushchev and Fidel Castro in July and construction on a number of missile launch facilities started later that summer. An election was underway in the U.S. and the White House had denied Republican charges that it was ignoring Fidel Castro embracing Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev, 1961 dangerous Soviet missiles 90 miles from Florida.

First, Peter Trubowitz has been an excellent dissertation chair and, before that, faculty adviser. From contacting me via email after I was accepted into the University of Texas at Austin, through the coursework phase of my graduate training and right up until the defense of this dissertation manuscript, he has been an unstinting source of encouragement, mentorship and guidance. It will be obvious to anybody familiar with our work that mine takes a liberal dose of inspiration from his. I think that good doctoral training should resemble an apprenticeship and I am grateful that I was able to learn my craft alongside a true master of the art. Bruce Buchanan, too, has been a dependable ally within the Department of Government ever since my earliest dealings with him.

  • “Can't Help Singing”: the “Modern” Opera Diva In
    “CAN’T HELP SINGING”: THE “MODERN” OPERA DIVA IN HOLLYWOOD FILM, 1930–1950 Gina Bombola A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music in the College of Arts and Sciences. Chapel Hill 2017 Approved by: Annegret Fauser Tim Carter Mark Katz Chérie Rivers Ndaliko Jocelyn Neal ©2017 Gina Bombola ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Gina Bombola: “Can’t Help Singing”: The “Modern” Opera Diva in Hollywood Film, 1930–1950 (Under the direction of Annegret Fauser) Following the release of Columbia Pictures’ surprise smash hit, One Night of Love (1934), major Hollywood studios sought to cash in on the public’s burgeoning interest in films featuring opera singers. For a brief period thereafter, renowned Metropolitan Opera artists such as Grace Moore and Lily Pons fared well at the box office, bringing “elite” musical culture to general audiences for a relatively inexpensive price. By the 1940s, however, the studios began grooming their own operatic actresses instead of transplanting celebrities from the stage. Stars such as Deanna Durbin, Kathryn Grayson, and Jane Powell thereby became ambassadors of opera from the highly commercial studio lot. My dissertation traces the shifts in film production and marketing of operatic singers in association with the rise of such cultural phenomena as the music-appreciation movement, all contextualized within the changing social and political landscapes of the United States spanning the Great Depression to the Cold War. Drawing on a variety of methodologies—including, among others, archival research, film analysis, feminist criticisms, and social theory—I argue that Hollywood framed opera as less of a European theatrical art performed in elite venues and more of a democratic, albeit still white, musical tradition that could be sung by talented individuals in any location.

Gilbert , Department of History Between 1930 and 1947 (and ultimately, to 1967) , the Hollywood film industry adhered to a set of rules, known as the Production Code, that set boundaries on the content of movies produced and distributed by the major studios. Influenced by Catholic theology, and written by a Catholic lay person an d a Catholic priest, the Production Code and the films of the Production Code -era have been mined by historians for evidence of Catholic censorship in Hollywood. This thesis explores another side the relationship between Hollywood and the Church, exploring the productive relationship between these major twentieth -century institutions, and the cultural negotiations that resulted in the representation of Catholicism as the American religion of the silver screen.
