    Todd Gutterman - President Greetings, everyone! Welcome to the 2021 Minnesota Selects Hockey Festival! I want to acknowledge the events of the past 18 months. We have all faced many unforeseen challenges, both within and beyond the hockey world. For the safety of everyone involved, the Minnesota Selects Executive Board made the difficult decisions to cancel the 2020 Festival and delay the 2021 Festival until now. While the dates have changed for this year, players and fans will still enjoy many of the features that have made our Festival great since its debut in 1989: * No gate fee. * High-quality jerseys with player names lettered on the back. * Saturday’s Skills Competition (a fan fave!) with prizes. * Sunday’s awards program, including individual player recognition and a strong focus on recognizing our student athletes. * The college-level program with a complete history of the Festival’s participants. * A weekend of great competition, excitement, and fun! On behalf of Minnesota Selects, I want to thank our 680 players and the coaches, families, friends, and volunteers for all the time, planning, and commitment it takes to make our tournament the success that it is and always has been. It’s been a long wait, but we are excited to be back for our 33rd year!

  • Raoul Walsh to Attend Opening of Retrospective Tribute at Museum
    The Museum of Modern Art jl west 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modernart NO. 34 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE RAOUL WALSH TO ATTEND OPENING OF RETROSPECTIVE TRIBUTE AT MUSEUM Raoul Walsh, 87-year-old film director whose career in motion pictures spanned more than five decades, will come to New York for the opening of a three-month retrospective of his films beginning Thursday, April 18, at The Museum of Modern Art. In a rare public appearance Mr. Walsh will attend the 8 pm screening of "Gentleman Jim," his 1942 film in which Errol Flynn portrays the boxing champion James J. Corbett. One of the giants of American filmdom, Walsh has worked in all genres — Westerns, gangster films, war pictures, adventure films, musicals — and with many of Hollywood's greatest stars — Victor McLaglen, Gloria Swanson, Douglas Fair­ banks, Mae West, James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, Marlene Dietrich and Edward G. Robinson, to name just a few. It is ultimately as a director of action pictures that Walsh is best known and a growing body of critical opinion places him in the front rank with directors like Ford, Hawks, Curtiz and Wellman. Richard Schickel has called him "one of the best action directors...we've ever had" and British film critic Julian Fox has written: "Raoul Walsh, more than any other legendary figure from Hollywood's golden past, has truly lived up to the early cinema's reputation for 'action all the way'...." Walsh's penchant for action is not surprising considering he began his career more than 60 years ago as a stunt-rider in early "westerns" filmed in the New Jersey hills.

Bilko, M*A*S*H and the Heyday of U.S. Military Sitcoms (1955-75) Dennis Tredy 1 If the title of this paper quotes part of the refrain from Edwin Starr’s 1970 protest song, “War,” the song’s next line, proclaiming that war is good for “absolutely nothing” seems inaccurate, at least in terms of successful television sitcoms of from the 1950s to the 1970s. In fact, while Starr’s song was still an anti-Vietnam War battle cry, ground- breaking television programs like M*A*S*H (CBS, 1972-1983) were using laughter and tongue-in-cheek treatment of the horrors of war to provide a somewhat more palatable expression of the growing anti-war sentiment to American audiences.

  • Jackie Cooper
    Jackie Cooper Titles: 49+ Sources: 10 Stills: 52 aka: Leonard Cooper Born: John Bigelow; Los Angeles, California; September 15th 1921/22 Son of studio production manager C.J. Bigelow; nephew of director Norman Taurog Homely puppy hits the Big Time – Cooper‟s big break was in “SKIPPY” Source: indeterminate “One day I‟ll be editor of the Daily Planet!” – Studio publicity shot Source: indeterminate website The snub-nosed tyke with truculent pout look was evidently a real winner in the thirties. Jackie Cooper had none of Coogan’s soulful vulnerability, none of Bartholomew’s precious decorousness. He hadn’t the sheer energy and vaudevillean versatility of Rooney, or the offhand prettiness of Dickie Moore and others. Analyising Cooper’s appeal is a puzzle. It cannot even in fairness be said of him that he was a talented child actor. In titles like “THE BOWERY” or “TREASURE ISLAND”, for example, his performance is servicable at best. Jackie Cooper was, as James Cagney famously characterised himself, a “bread and butter” actor, his everyman face and voice struck a chord with Depression-era audiences. He had few pretensions, worked hard, and put the bacon on the table. Behind him, as ever, a mother determined to get her son on the screen, in this case by a judicious fiddling of the studio books. In many of his best-remembered titles the young Cooper was teamed with burly aw-shucks Wallace Beery, and the studios obviously regarded them as something of an item, but in a revealing aside during a recent interview, Cooper indicated that Beery was actually quite offhand towards him when the cameras weren't turning, so they didn't hit it off at all so well as the screen gave out.

  • Introduction Cinemas of Boyhood, Part II
    Introduction Cinemas of Boyhood, Part II Timothy Shary We are proud to present a second set of essays on the topic of boyhood in cinema, adding to those that appeared in issue 8.2 of this journal. Again, the range of interests is eclectic, further illustrating the diverse concerns that boyhood’s representation evinces in movies and all media. My introductory comments in the previous issue focused on the com- pelling research about boyhood that has provoked so much discussion in the field over the past two decades, from political sociology and pop psy- chology to specific studies of the representation of boys in cinema. Given the scope of films discussed in this issue, from Britain and India as well as from silent Hollywood and so-called new Hollywood in the 1980s, I direct my overview to relevant films about boyhood, and to the young actors in them, that have instigated cogent analyses such as those presented here. Peter Lee’s article on the gendered evolution, as it were, of Jackie Coogan in the 1920s brings out many relevant historical tensions about how boy- hood has been negotiated on- and off-screen during this decade. Lee points out that Coogan was not the first boy star—he names “Vitagraph Boy” Kenneth Casey, to whom we could add Ben Alexander, John Tansey, Ray- mond Hackett, and Gordon Griffith—but Coogan became the most famous of his era. He was followed in the next decade by Jackie Cooper who, for his title role in Skippy (1931) when he was barely nine years old, became the first child ever nominated for an Academy Award, and who then went on to greater fame in The Champ (1931), The Bowery (1933), and Treasure Island (1934).
