    1 Hollywood Misfits. Marilyn Monroe E Ben Hecht Sarebbe Curioso Se

    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Institutional Research Information System University of Turin 1 Hollywood Misfits. Marilyn Monroe e Ben Hecht Sarebbe curioso se risultasse che sono un’autrice. Anita Loos, Gli uomini preferiscono le bionde. Ben Hecht, uno degli sceneggiatori più importanti e prolifici della storia del cinema americano classico, tra le tante cose che ha fatto nella sua poliedrica carriera, è stato anche ghostwriter di Marilyn Monroe, per un progetto abortito di autobiografia, intitolata My Story, che avrebbe trovato un esito editoriale solo nel 1974, dopo che sia la diva sia lo scrittore erano ormai morti da tempo (Hecht scompare poco meno di due anni dopo Marilyn, nell’aprile del 1964). In questa sede, intendo, da un lato, ricostruire la complessa vicenda della redazione e della pubblicazione del libro, uno «highly problematic text», lo definisce giustamente Sarah Churchwell nel suo The Many Lives of Marilyn Monroe1, basandomi sui documenti che ho esaminato alla Newberry Library di Chicago, dove sono conservati i “Ben Hecht Papers”2. Dall’altro lato, proverò a ragionare sul contenuto di My Story, inteso sia come opera di/su Marilyn Monroe, sia in quanto opera “di” Hecht. Per molti versi, My Story è il libro “onesto e feroce” su Hollywood che Hecht avrebbe potuto scrivere e che non scrisse mai, quanto meno non con il suo nome in copertina. Quando esce per la prima volta, su iniziativa di Milton Greene (fotografo e amico dell’attrice), My Story è a firma unicamente della Monroe. Solo con la riedizione del 2007, per i tipi di Taylor Trade, viene riconosciuto l’apporto dello sceneggiatore (questa volta, l’opera è attribuita a: «Marilyn Monroe with Ben Hecht»).

    2008: a Year of Variety

    The Judy Room2008 Year In Review 2008: A YEAR OF VARIETY In 2008 our world of “Judy Fandom” experienced a wide variety of products, events, and celebrations. Along with some wonderful CD, DVD and print releases, we were treated to some great events, like the high-tech “Judy Garland In Concert” which suc- essfully showcased Judy “live” in concert. Warner Home Video announced their first- ever 6k resolution restoration - and they chose A Star Is Born! Vincente Minnelli’s childhood home received a commemorative marker. The off-Broadway show “Judy and Me” received glowing reviews. The artwork to Judy’s 1962 animated film Gay Purr-ee (she was the voice of the main character, “Mewsette”) was featured in a special exhibition by the Academy of Mo- tion Picture Arts & Sciences. The Judy Garland Festival in Grand Rapids, Minnesota was again a success. And the 2009 70th anniversary of The Wizard of Oz began early with com- memorative stamps and noted designers creating their own interpretations of the famed Ruby Slippers, all for the Elizabeth Glazer Pediatric AIDS foundation - some- thing Judy herself probably would have supported had she lived. The following pages feature the highlights of the year, plus what’s to come (that I know of so far) for 2009. It’s a testament to Judy’s tal- ent and genius that here we are almost 40 years past her death, and she’s still making news, and still having an impact on the world of entertainment. I hope you enjoy this year’s Year In Review, and I thank you for your continued support.

    Ruth Prawer Jhabvala's Adapted Screenplays

    Absorbing the Worlds of Others: Ruth Prawer Jhabvala’s Adapted Screenplays By Laura Fryer Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of a PhD degree at De Montfort University, Leicester. Funded by Midlands 3 Cities and the Arts and Humanities Research Council. June 2020 i Abstract Despite being a prolific and well-decorated adapter and screenwriter, the screenplays of Ruth Prawer Jhabvala are largely overlooked in adaptation studies. This is likely, in part, because her life and career are characterised by the paradox of being an outsider on the inside: whether that be as a European writing in and about India, as a novelist in film or as a woman in industry. The aims of this thesis are threefold: to explore the reasons behind her neglect in criticism, to uncover her contributions to the film adaptations she worked on and to draw together the fields of screenwriting and adaptation studies. Surveying both existing academic studies in film history, screenwriting and adaptation in Chapter 1 -- as well as publicity materials in Chapter 2 -- reveals that screenwriting in general is on the periphery of considerations of film authorship. In Chapter 2, I employ Sandra Gilbert’s and Susan Gubar’s notions of ‘the madwoman in the attic’ and ‘the angel in the house’ to portrayals of screenwriters, arguing that Jhabvala purposely cultivates an impression of herself as the latter -- a submissive screenwriter, of no threat to patriarchal or directorial power -- to protect herself from any negative attention as the former. However, the archival materials examined in Chapter 3 which include screenplay drafts, reveal her to have made significant contributions to problem-solving, characterisation and tone.

    Everything Began with the Movie Moulin Rouge (2001)

    Introduction Everything began with the movie Moulin Rouge (2001). Since I was so obsessed with this hit film, I couldn’t but want to know more about this particular genre - musical films. Then I started to trace the history of this genre back to Hollywood’s classical musical films. It’s interesting that musical films have undergone several revivals and are usually regarded as the products of escapism. Watching those protagonists singing and dancing happily, the audience can daydream freely and forget about the cruel reality. What are the aesthetic artifices of this genre so enchanting that it always catches the eye of audience generation after generation? What kinds of ideal life do these musical films try to depict? Do they (musical films) merely escape from reality or, as a matter of fact, implicitly criticize the society? In regard to the musical films produced by Hollywood, what do they reflect the contemporary social, political or economic situations? To investigate these aspects, I start my research project on the Hollywood musical film genre from the 1950s (its Classical Period) to 2002. However, some people might wonder that among all those Hollywood movies, what is so special about the musical films that makes them distinguish from the other types of movies? On the one hand, the musical film genre indeed has several important contributions to the Hollywood industry, and its influence never wanes even until today. In need of specialty for musical film production, many talented professional dancers and singers thus get the chances to join in Hollywood and prove themselves as great actors (actresses), too.
