  • Zorro Rides Again
    Zorro Rides Again In 1937, New Orleans became the first city in the United States to be provided funding under the Wagner Act. Contracts for the St. Thomas and Magnolia housing projects were the first signed by FDR under Senator Robert Wagner’s legislation, and with it the Housing Authority of New Orleans (HANO) was created. A young LBJ was one of the principal authors of the Housing Act of 1937, and he saw to it that the first three grants were announced in alphabetical order (with Austin being mentioned before New Orleans and New York). Hermes makes its debut, The New Orleans Item, February 5, 1937 Also that year, New Orleans saw the debut of a vibrant new carnival organization, the Knights of Hermes (which continues to charm the city with its annual parade). Hermes, HANO and housing were the talk of the town, and Hitler was the talk of the nation. For those who wanted some form of escapism, there was always the local movie house. Among numerous neighborhood theatres, there was the Bell, the Cortez, the Casino and the Carrollton (which had been rebuilt the year before). Or perhaps one visited the Imperial on Hagan Avenue (Jefferson Davis Parkway today) followed by a stop at the Parkway Bakery (also on Hagan … then as today). New Orleans-born John Carroll in 1937’s “Zorro Rides Again” 1937 produced great films like Frank Capra’s “Lost Horizon”, the Marx Brothers in “A Day at the Races”, “Stella Dallas”, “Topper” and “The Awful Truth”. In addition to these classics were the serial Westerns from Republic, and 1937’s “Zorro Rides Again” was one of these twelve-chapter runs.

  • La Leyenda De MOVIELAND; Historia Del Cine En El Estado De Durango
    La Leyenda de MOVIELAND; Historia del Cine en el Estado de Durango (1897 - 2004) Antonio Avitia Hernández México, 2005 Introducción De manera casi tan fortuita y tan veleidosa como los criterios y las posibilidades económicas de las compañías cinematográficas, de los productores y de los directores de cine, algunos paisajes naturales del estado de Durango han sido seleccionados como escenario del rodaje de diversas películas. Hasta donde se ha podido investigar, entre los años de 1897 a 2004, se han filmado un total de doscientos setenta y ocho (278) cintas en la entidad. De éstas, treinta (30) son de la época del cine silente, producidas entre 1897 y 1936. Noventa y ocho (98) son de formato de ocho, super ocho y dieciséis milímetros, independientes, así como filmes documentales científicos, antropológicos y culturales, entre otros. Con respecto al cine industrial, ciento cincuenta (150) han sido los filmes rodados en territorio durangueño entre los años de 1954 a 2004. Los objetivos principales de esta historia del cine en Durango son: hacer el recuento cuantitativo y cronológico, la ubicación histórica, la reseña de las sinopsis argumentales, las fichas filmográficas y la relación de los personajes y locaciones sobresalientes de las películas rodadas en la entidad, así como describir la impresión que, en el imaginario colectivo regional, ha tenido el cinematógrafo, en tanto séptimo arte e industria cinematográfica. De manera colateral, hasta donde ha sido posible, se hace referencia a la suerte de los filmes en lo que respecta a su distribución. En el primer capítulo El cine silente en Durango se hace el recuento, sinopsis argumental, situación histórica y establecimiento de los treinta filmes del periodo silente rodados en la entidad, desde el arribo de los enviados de Edison en 1897 hasta la cinta documental de propaganda política laudatoria, grabada por encargo del gobernador del estado coronel Enrique R.

Fernando is a life insurance salesman whose clients always fall ill (and die?) after he sells them a policy; this does not endear him to his boss. But Fernando has bigger problems: he’s visited by La DDeeaatthh TTaakkeess aa HHoolliiddaayy Muerte, in the person of a beautiful woman. She says his habit of repeatedly saying things like “I’d give 5 years of my life for a new bicycle” has reduced his assigned life-span. He pleads for a postponement, and La Muerte gives him 15 days, saying she needs a holiday anyway, and wants to understand why humans cling to life and fear death. After all, they invent weapons of mass destruction such as the atomic and hydrogen bombs that threaten their lives, and life after death is peaceful and pleasant. La Muerte insists she must live with Fernando for the 15 days, and he’s forced to introduce her to his family--his suspicious wife Minerva, lazy brother-in- law Jorge, cynical maid María, and young daughter La Muerte enamorada [Death in Love] Lulú--as Tasia, his Greek cousin.

  • AN ABSTRACT of the THESIS of Olga B. Rodriguez-Walmisley For
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Olga B. Rodriguez-Walmisley for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Arts in English and Spanish presented on May 25, 2011. Title: How the Portrayal of Women Characters in the Zorro and Robin Hood Stories Has Changed Over Time. Abstract approved: _______________________________________________________ Kayla García This thesis explores how female characters in the Zorro and Robin Hood stories have changed throughout time, from beginnings until present day. I began my analysis by first researching whether Zorro and Robin Hood existed, and found that Robin Hood was most likely a real man who lived during the 1300s, while Zorro was created by the author Johnston McCulley in 1919. Then I investigated five sources from the Robin Hood canon and five from the Zorro canon, looking for patterns and differences in the female characters. I found that both stories started out with a strong female character, both fluctuated between a strong a weak female character, and both, at some point, split the main female character into two characters, one strong and one weak. In the latest versions of the Robin Hood and Zorro stories, the female characters are blended together again to form a character stronger than ever before. I conclude that the characters were split because it was unacceptable at the time each story was set for women to display both strength and weakness. The blending of different aspects of personality, such as masculinity and femininity, beauty and strength, allow for the development of a multi-faceted person. ©Copyright by Olga B.

    nowing that popular culture constructs, informs, and reflects, Borderless Cultures brings together Kfilmmakers and scholars to share films that are otherwise not in wide release to talk about about Latinx peoples and film. Thus, we have selected films that can spark conversations about the U.S. racialization of Latinx peoples. Conceived between collaborators and colleagues on opposite coasts, Borderless Cultures is our offering to gather across space, and share time and ideas. Bringing his talents as a content creator and art educator, Emmanuel Ramos-Barajas thinks through narrative and artistic vision, while Professor Annette Rodríguez fixates on historical context and the value of scholarly analysis. Our goal is to reframe Latinx histories— and by extension, the interlaced histories of Indigenous, Mexican, Black, Asian & Anglo peoples— in what today is the South and West of the United States. film festival film festival This syllabus presents additional resources that might help audiences delve further into The Head of Joaquin Murrieta (John J. Valadez, 2016). We hope that reading, watching and listening to some of the most influential and noteworthy versions of Murrieta’s story will help paint a more complete picture in regards to what he has represented across different times and spaces.
