ROBÍN DE LOS BOSQUES (The Adventures of Robin Hood) -1938 ROBÍN DE LOS BOSQUES (The Adventures of Robin Hood) -1938- FICHA TÉCNICA RESUMIDA: Producción: First National, Warner Bros (Jack Warner, Henry Blanke, Hal B. Wallis) Dirección: William Keighley, Michael Curtiz Guión: Norman Reilly Raine, Seton I. Miller Música: Erich Wolfgang Korngold Fotografía: Tony Gaudio, Sol Polito Intérpretes principales: Errol Flynn - Robin de Locksley Olivia de Havilland - Lady Marian Claude Rains - Príncipe Juan Basil Rathbone - Sir Guy de Gisbourne Alan Hale - Little John Patrick Knowles - Will Scarlett Eugen Pallette - Fraile Tuck Melville Cooper - Sheriff de Notthingham Ian Hunter - Rey Ricardo Corazón de León Una O´Connor - Bess Montagu Love - Obispo ALGUNOS ELEMENTOS DESTACABLES Y CURIOSIDADES - Estuvo nominada al Premio Oscar en la categoría de Mejor Película (que ganaría la película Vive como quieras, de Frank Capra). No obstante, ganó tres Premios Oscar: Mejor Dirección Artística (Carl Jules Weyl), Mejor Montaje (Ralph Dawson) y Mejor Banda Sonora (Erich Wolfgang Korngold). - Fue la película más cara del momento. Su producción total superó los dos millones de dólares (doblando el presupuesto inicial). Hubo numerosos problemas durante el rodaje, así como diversas sustituciones (la más sonada la de los directores, sustituyendo Michael Curtiz a William Keighley, parece ser que por su “excesivo” perfeccionismo -según los productores- y, por tanto, mayor lentitud al rodar y ,quizás también, por no ser un experto en las secuencias de acción –siendo Curtiz un especialista–). - A destacar el ritmo de la película (como hemos dicho ganó el Oscar por el Mejor Montaje) y el sentido del humor dominante en toda la película. - A modo de curiosidad, decir que las localizaciones exteriores para el Bosque de Sherwood fueron hechas en el Parque Bidwell de Chico (California). Parece ser que el verde de algunos árboles del bosque no “daba” bien al Technicolor y tuvieron que pintar sus hojas de un verde que quedara mejor. - Erich Wolfgang Korngold, compositor reconocido de origen austriaco, en un principio se negó a componer la banda sonora de la película alegando, en una carta al productor Wallis, que él era: “... un compositor de corazón, de las pasiones y la psicología; [...] no un ilustrador musical de una película de acción en un 90% [...] no puedo tomar la responsabilidad de una labor que va a dejarme artísticamente insatisfecho y que terminaré abandonando, después de trabajar varias semanas y cobrar por ello”. Finalmente, Wallis supo convencerle y Korngold compuso la premiada banda sonora. SECUENCIAS ANTOLÓGICAS - En la que Robin de Locksley (Errol Flynn) se presenta en el banquete que da el Príncipe Juan (Claude Rains) para retarle públicamente a él y a sus acompañantes, en especial a Sir Guy de Gisbourne (Basil Rathbone). - El duelo a espada entre Robin de Locksley y Sir Guy de Gisbourne. .

    THE ADVENTURES OF ROBIN HOOD PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Dr Roger Lancelyn Green,Arthur Hall,John Boyne | 336 pages | 29 Feb 2016 | Penguin Books Ltd | 9780141329383 | English | London, United Kingdom The Adventures of Robin Hood - Wikipedia Surrounded by his enemies, he fearlessly accuses John of treason against his brother Richard the Lionhearted, and then fights his way out of the castle again. Another actor might have wanted to project a sense of uncertainty, or resolve, or danger; Flynn shows us a Robin Hood so supremely alive that the whole adventure is a lark. Yes, his eyes shift to note that the exit is being barred and guards are readying their swords, but he observes not in fear but in anticipation. This is the scene at which Maid Marian first sees Robin, and we first see her. That Olivia de Havilland was a great beauty goes without saying, but as I watched the new DVD of "The Adventures of Robin Hood," I found myself more than once pausing the film to simply look at de Havilland in closeup, her cheeks rosy in Technicolor, her features fine and resolute. The shift in her feelings about Sir Robin is measured out scene by scene. It is not a sudden transition but a gradual dawning upon her that this is the man she loves, and that she must escape her arranged marriage to Gisbourne. Their love scenes, so simple and direct, made me reflect that modern love scenes in action movies are somehow too realistic; they draw too much on psychology and not enough on romance and fable.

  • In Show Girl in Hollywood (1930)
    Nicholas Emme The Reality of Illusion: Self-Reflexivity in Show Girl in Hollywood (1930) Abstract This article explores the little-seen 1930 Warner Bros. filmShow Girl in Hollywood as an early example of self-reflexive sound cinema, a behind-the-scenes musical portraying Hollywood through the distortions of fictional storytelling and studio gimmickry. Combining archival research with textual analysis, the article details the film’s original intentions as an A-production vehicle for the studio’s early sound-era star, Alice White, and its promise to hold up a mirror to Hollywood show business, and compares those intentions to the results: in some cases predictable and trite, in others providing striking insights into early studio system filmmaking. As the movie attempts to show everyday Hollywood life as well as actual film production, it simultaneously and unwittingly documents the logic and motivations of the nascent studio era. White and her film may have been consigned to the periphery of American film history, but their convergence created a compelling document of early sound production as well as the possibilities, limitations, and unintentional revelations of self-reflexive studio-era filmmaking. “The silencing of the camera and documentary footage, Show Girl in Hollywood the introduction of directional mikes attempts to give audiences a behind-the-scenes combined with this simple tool [the peek at Hollywood, and in the process even show boom] to produce high-quality vocal how sound films were made in 1930, most notably recording. But like other film technology, in a musical sequence midway through the film that the boom did not instantly replace its demonstrates sound film production.
