  • Sonja Henie, Norwegian Star in Hollywood
    Stars and Stardom, the Liv Ulmann Conference Trondheim, December 10 – 11, 2008 Presentation by Mona Pedersen, Hedmark University College Sonja Henie, Norwegian Star in Hollywood The title “Norwegian star in Hollywood” indicates what I’d like to enlighten in my presentation; Henie as a Hollywood made Star; which elements constructs her star persona? I will also elaborate if or how national identity is portrayed in her films, and the Norwegian response to this. But first I will give you a short outline of Henie’s career. Sonja Henie was born in Oslo in 1912 and she died of leukaemia in 1969 – only 57 years old. According to the latest biography (Stenseth 2002) she had three careers in her relatively short life; first as a sports athlete from 1924 to 1936, second as a film star and entertainer from 1936 to 1960, and third as an art collector and keen lover of modern art the last nine years of her life. It is, of course, Henie’s second career as a film star and entertainer that we shall pay attention here, and especially her twelve years (starting in 1936) in the film industry. In 1936, Sonja Henie won her third Olympic Gold Medal and her tenth World Championship in a row in figure skating. She was 24 and world famous. Henie decided it was time to give up her sports career and pursue a career as a film actress. The strategy behind this change was put together with the help of her father Wilhelm who until his death in 1937 was his daughter’s manager.

  • Pioneer Film Director Honored / HENRY KING
    The Museum of Modern Art 'iWest 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modemart NO. 57 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PIONEER FILM DIRECTOR HONORED SEVEN WEEK RETROSPECTIVE FOR HENRY KING CO-SPONSORED BY MUSEUM AND DIRECTORS GUILD OF AMERICA "...the most underpublicized filmmaker in Hollywood. This tall, lean, handsome, urbane, but unflamboyant model of a corporation president makes film hits so easily, so efficiently, and so calmly that he is not news in a community of blaring trumpets, crashing cymbals and screaming egos." -Frank Capra Henry King, one of the founding fathers of American film, who began his career early in the century, remains today one of the legendary figures in Hollywood, and though he preserves his privacy, his films such as "The Song of Bernadette," "Twelve O'clock High" and "The Gunfighter" speak for themselves, and these and other major works will be part of a seven week retrospective given in King's honor by New York's Museum of Modern Art in association with the Directors Guild of America. The Virginia-born director, who has specialized, like D.W. Griffith and John Ford, in Americana themes since his first classic, "Tol'able David," and later with "State Fair", "In Old Chicago," "Jesse James" and "Alexander's Ragtime Band," will make a trip from the West Coast to New York to participate in the opening of this program. On June 29 and 30, he will address the Museum audiences, although he seldom makes public appearances. While he contributed to Hollywood's worldwide reputation, King, who recognized such early superstars as Richard Barthelmess, Ronald Colman and Gary Cooper and gave them their first leading roles on the screen, has managed to retain his relative anonymity in an ostentatious environment.

  • Representing History
    Representing History The Pianist To Kill A King Why use film? History is currently `in vogue’ with the media. Documentaries cover the five terrestrial channels, historical non-fiction tops the best selling charts and Simon Schama, Michael Wood and David Starkey are now superstar presenters. Time Team and Restoration positively encourage us to take a `hands on’ approach – we can now affect what happens to our heritage directly. Historical films are also as popular as ever, with Pirates of the Caribbean currently topping the UK Box Office (although historians may argue exactly which historical period it is from!) and there are still many costume drama classics that draw in audiences across the world. Films that attempt to show history are sometimes derided by historians and critics for their lack of accuracy and sometimes hilariously bad casting - John Wayne as Genghis Khan anyone? However, if we view historical films as documents to begin an investigation, and if we look at how the film itself works, as well as examining how it purports to tell us about the past, the result can be a rewarding and enjoyable journey. A film can capture a feeling for a time; can create a mood and a picture of the past that perhaps, with further historical research and examination of the other contemporary art forms (drama, literature, painting, music etc.) can make that world come to life. © Film Education 2003 1 Curriculum Links The case study films below have been chosen both for their specific links to historical topics but also because of their filmic interest, either as a new take on a particular subject or an innovative way of telling a story.

  • Twentieth Century Fox: 1935-1965
    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release June 1990 Twentieth Century Fox: 1935-1965 July 1 - September 11, 1990 This summer, The Museum of Modern Art pays tribute to Twentieth Century Fox with a retrospective of over ninety films made between 1935 and 1965. Opening on July 1, 1990, TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX: 1935-1965 traces three key decades in the history of the studio, celebrating the talents of the artists on both sides of the cameras who shaped this period. The exhibition continues through September 11. Formed in 1915, the Fox Film Corporation merged in 1935 with the much younger Twentieth Century to launch a major new studio. Under the supervision of Darryl F. Zanuck, Twentieth Century Fox developed a new house style, emphasizing epic biographies such as John Ford's The Prisoner of Shark Island (1936) and Allan Dwan's Suez (1938) and snappy urban pictures such as Sidney Lanfield's Hake Up and Live (1937) and Roy Del Ruth's Thanks a Million (1935). The studio also featured such fresh screen personalities as Tyrone Power, Alice Faye, and Shirley Temple. From this time on, the studio masterfully anticipated and shaped the tastes of the movie-going public. During World War II, Twentieth Century Fox made its mark with a series of exuberant Technicolor musicals featuring such actresses as Betty Grable and Carmen Miranda. After the war, the studio shifted focus and began to highlight other genres including films noirs such as Edmund Goulding's Nightmare Alley (1947) and Otto Preminger's Where the Sidewalk Ends (1950), wry satirical films such as Joseph L.

  • Press Release-5-27-08-Pdf
    Press Release: After 53 Year Absence, '34 Packard V12 and Its Owner Return to Pebble Beach Concours Marvin Zukor, who first showed his 1934 Packard V12 Convertible Victoria at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance in 1955, is returning for the upcoming event in August. Read more about his historic car in the following release. AFTER 53 YEAR ABSENCE, '34 PACKARD V12 AND ITS OWNER RETURN TO PEBBLE BEACH CONCOURS d'ELEGANCE First owned by actor Cesar Romero, then driven by current owner for nearly 5 ½ decades, vintage Packard returns to world's most prestigious car event FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (May 27, 2008) - In 1955, San Francisco police officer Marvin Zukor drove his 1934 Packard V12 Convertible Victoria about 100 miles down the California coast to participate in the third Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance®. Fifty- three years later, Zukor and his prized possession will again be competing in the Aug. 17 Concours, which has grown from a local collector car show into an annual showcase for classic automobiles from around the world. The lineage of Zukor's Packard is rather unique: it's first two owners have stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The car was originally purchased from a Beverly Hills auto dealer in 1933 by actor Cesar Romero, who starred in dozens of films, but is possibly best known as the Joker on TV's Batman. The next owner was sportscaster-actor Bill Stern, who broadcast the first major league baseball game on TV. After World War II, the Packard somehow became a Stanford University "rally car" driven around the stadium track during football games.
