  • 2006 Was Another Year of Great Events, New Releases, and Accolades for and About Judy Garland’S Great Talent and Body of Work
    2006 was another year of great events, new releases, and accolades for and about Judy Garland’s great talent and body of work. The biggest news for this past year was the discovery of two of the lost Decca recordings that Judy made in 1935. Thought to be lost forever, these recordings were transferred to digital format and put up for auction (see following page for details). The other big news for the year would have to be the highly successful release of the Judy Garland stamp on what would have been Judy’s 84th birthday, June 10, 2006 (see following page for details) June 2006 could well be remembered as the best “Judy Garland Month” ever! We had the stamp release, two new CDs, over 10 DVDs, the Judy Garland Festival in Minnesota, and more! Plus, The Judy Room has a new look! Beginning in Summer 2006, I began making “vintage magazine covers” the theme of the homepage (see the thumbnails below). These covers reflect the change in seasons and special events or holidays while also fondly looking back to golden age of fan magazines . A BIG THANK YOU to “Alex in Belgium” for his masterful photo colorization. I would like to extend a special thanks and appreciation to Eric Hemphill, Scott Schechter, “tinman”, Donald, and everyone else who has helped to make The Judy Room a success. I hope you all know that I couldn’t do this without you. THANK YOU! Sincerely, Scott Brogan The Judy Room JANUARY 12, 2006: The Recording Industry Association Of America (RIAA) announces their Grammy Hall Of Fame inductees, and the 1956 M-G-M Records soundtrack to The Wizard Of Oz is included.

  • LISTENING to DRAG: MUSIC, PERFORMANCE and the CONSTRUCTION of OPPOSITIONAL CULTURE DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillmen
    LISTENING TO DRAG: MUSIC, PERFORMANCE AND THE CONSTRUCTION OF OPPOSITIONAL CULTURE DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy In the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Elizabeth Kaminski, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Vincent Roscigno, Advisor Professor Verta Taylor _________________________ Advisor Professor Nella Van Dyke Sociology Graduate Program ABSTRACT This study examines how music is utilized in drag performances to create an oppositional culture that challenges dominant structures of gender and sexuality. I situate this analysis in literature on the role of music and other cultural resources in the mobilization of social movement protest. Drawing from multiple sources of data, I demonstrate that drag queen performers make use of popular songs to build solidarity, evoke a sense of injustice, and enhance feelings of agency among audience members – three dimensions of cognition that constitute a collective action framework, conducive to social protest. The analysis is based on observations of drag performances; content analysis of the lyrics of drag songs; intensive interviews with drag queens at the 801 Cabaret in Key West, Florida; focus groups with audience members who attended the shows at the 801 Cabaret; and interviews with drag queen informants in Columbus, Ohio. I demonstrate how drag performers use music to construct new alliances and understandings of gender and sexuality among gay and heterosexual members of the audience. The data illustrate that drag performers strategically select songs to evoke an array of emotions among audience members. First are songs that utilize sympathy, sorrow, and humor to build solidarity.

  • ANNA KARENINA on the LARGE and SMALL SCREEN Peter Cochran
    1 ANNA KARENINA ON THE LARGE AND SMALL SCREEN Peter Cochran Edmund Goulding, 1927; Clarence Brown, 1935; Julien Duvivier, 1948; Rudolph Cartier, 1961; Alexandr Zarkhi, 1967; Basil Coleman, 1977; Simon Langton, 1985; Bernard Rose, 1997; David Blair, 2000; Sergei Solovyov, 2005; Joe Wright, 2012 It seems impossible to make a fully-balanced film or television version of Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina . Despite the film-makers’ best intentions, something always goes wrong. The main problem is that the films are, for the most part, two hundred years behind Tolstoy in moral complexity, and in frankness about love, sex, and human relations. Not until the year 2000 do they catch up with him. As a result, most early twentieth-century films represent, not a reaction to Tolstoy, but a deflection of attention away from him. The novel is either a beautiful tale of doomed romance, or a dissection of the way the female sexual impulse wreaks havoc if given too loose a rein … or both. Most films opt for the former interpretation, as more marketable. There are some things which novels can do but which films can’t: At the very moment when Vronsky thought that now was the time to overtake Mahotin, Frou-Frou herself, understanding his thoughts, without any incitement on his part, gained ground considerably, and began getting alongside of Mahotin on the most favorable side, close to the inner cord. Mahotin would not let her pass that side. Vronsky had hardly formed the thought that he could perhaps pass on the outer side, when Frou-Frou shifted her pace and began overtaking him on the other side.
