Pride of the Bimbos by John Sayles. By John Sayles. Nation Books (2005, world English rights) Paper • ISBN: 1550255560 • US $15.95 • 8.5 in x 6.5 in • 258 pgs. ABOUT THE BOOK: Pride of the Bimbos , with its outrageous plot and cast of outlandish characters, is both funny and profound. It is about a man who refuses to admit he’s a freak: Pogo Burns, midget and former private eye. Pogo plays for the Brooklyn Bimbos, a cross-dressing circus sideshow softball team, and is pursued by an evil superpimp named Dred, whom he once shot in order to rescue the woman he loved. The tale of Pogo’s rise, fall and eventual immortality is narrated with wit and depth. This remarkable book marked the start of legendary filmmaker John Sayles’s career as a novelist.

John Sayles is a force of nature, a do-it-yourself renaissance man - director, actor, screenwriter, script doctor, novelist. As far as we know, he wasn't part of the Navy Seal Team 6 that nabbed Bin Laden, but his boundless creative energy and narrative marksmanship, not to mention his longevity, put him squarely in a most elite squad of storytellers. Melville, Whitman, Mark Twain, Robert Altman: like the greatest American originals, Sayles has crossed genres and warped minds for three decades now, unleashing classics such as Return of the Secaucus Seven , Matewan , Eight Men Out , The Secret of Roan Inish , Lone Star , and Sunshine State on the silver screen, and the National Book Award- nominated Union Dues and Los Gusanos , two heavyweight novels that could duke it out with just about any other contemporary work of fiction. Now Sayles has unveiled his most ambitious project to date in any genre, A Moment In the Sun , a bloody, brilliant, nearly 1,000 page globetrotting epic set at the turn of the last century, a time not so different from our own, it turns out. John recently took time out of his very busy schedule to talk to The Rumpus a block or so from New York's Port Authority. He had to embark on a cross-country road trip .

  • Film As Representations of American Democracy and Oppression in the Long 20Th Century
    Curriculum Units by Fellows of the Yale-New Haven Teachers Institute 2015 Volume II: American Culture in the Long 20th Century Film as Representations of American Democracy and Oppression in the Long 20th Century Curriculum Unit 15.02.09 by Matthew S. Monahan “I believe that the motion picture is destined to revolutionize our educational system and that in a few years it will supplant largely, if not entirely, the use of textbooks” (Thomas Edison, 1922). Section One: Introduction 1.1 Statement of Context Metropolitan Business Academy, an interdistrict magnet high school, has a history with the Regional Educational Support Center, the Center for 21st Century Skills. Although I do not teach courses that culminate with the Student Innovation Expo, I have developed and teach an introductory film course. Introduction to Film is an elective that is open only to juniors and seniors. I also teach senior level English. It is my aim that students who complete this unit through either of my courses, although my primary purpose and method of delivery will be Introduction to Film, will have a deeper understanding of American democracy and the struggles that different groups have endured in their attempts to attain power and voice in the face of oppression throughout the “long 20 th century,” a term I shall attribute to Yale Professor Matthew Frye Jacobson to mean the late 1800s to present. Students will critically assess three major movements in which “Americans” have both struggled against and acted as forces of oppression: the early labor movement beginning roughly in the 1920s, the Civil Rights era of the 1960s, and present day post-9/11 post-Katrina America.

  • Faith, Politics, and the Films of John Sayles
    PSC 319/CTH 369: Faith, Politics and the Films of John Sayles Levan Room 100 Monday 6-9:15 p.m. Professor Michael L. Budde Department of Catholic Studies Office: 570 SAC [email protected] (773) 325-1974 Office Hours: M 3-6 p.m. and by appointment Course Description: The work of John Sayles, among the best known of American independent filmmakers, has ranged across many important and controversial issues – race, economic exploitation, ethnicity, sexuality and more. While the political significance of his films is often acknowledged, his work is also suffused with religious and spiritual symbols and insights he attributes in part to his Catholic heritage (he once described himself as a “Roman Catholic Atheist”). He has received several Academy Award nominations, and received a MacArthur Foundation “genius grant” in 1983. Sayles’ work – and how he does it – also provides insights into the conditions of cultural production and artistic freedom in an era of large-scale corporate culture industries (e.g., Time- Warner, Disney, Fox). Unlike most filmmakers, Sayles works free of studio control and oversight – he provides much of the money for his films through his work as a high-priced “script doctor” for the studios (his uncredited scripts include Apollo 13, Mimic, and many others). Sayles’ better-known films, which he has written and directed, include Eight Men Out, Lone Star, Men With Guns, Matewan, and Passion Fish. This course will explore the interplay of politics, commerce, spirituality and culture in Sayles’ work. We will watch many of Sayles’ films in their entirety, discuss and debate issues raised in them, and use Sayles’ experience as a way to investigate larger questions regarding corporate control of cultural production, the social and political significance of independent storytelling, and the ambiguous location of religion (and Catholicism in particular) in contemporary culture industries.

The Audubon Room exhibit poster and banner were adapted with permis- sion from the original poster by Shepard Fairey. Introduction This collection of artifacts from the John Sayles Archive together with the interpretive exhibit in the Gallery provide a glimpse into the life and work of this author, screenwriter, and famously independent filmmaker. The Sayles Archive comprises more than 200 boxes and documents his life and work from his 1950s boyhood through the 2013 release of Go for Sisters. His lifelong personal and professional partner Maggie Renzi is a constant presence in the Archive, represented in personal notebooks, journals, and correspondence, as well as production-related documents. This Archive joins those of Orson Welles and Robert Altman in our American Film Mavericks at Michigan Collection that has proven to be a rich source of primary materials for students and researchers. The artifacts exhibited here only hint at the depth of these extensive archives and their potential to illuminate both the history of filmmaking and the working methods and creative processes of these enormously influential artists.
