Contents/ SHOPPING The It List Music/Movies/Books Shop Away Bou1iquing Brooklyn DINING The Patio Is Open Manhattan/Brooklyn Dinner/Drinks/Dessert by Diane Snyder THE IT LIST/ Taboo and Toad Live Months after the end of its ill-fated Broadway run, the cast album of TABOO (DRG) is finally out. The show was much better than the reviews sug­ gested, and Boy George's vibrant score- the best original score of this past Broadway season - is one reason why. It's so nice to hear pop songs and ballads that were written for the musical stage, not taken off the pop charts and sandwiched into a show. Rising Broadway stars Raul Esparza and Liz McCartney deliver show-stopping turns alongside London cast members Euan Morton and George O'Dowd (Boy George himself). A year after its short-lived Broadway run, the sweet but not saccharine A YEAR WITH FROG AND TOAD (P.S. Classics LLC) is out in CD. Based on a series of beloved children's books, this show has a bouncy, enchanting score by Willie and Robert Reale. It's a great way to introduce kids to musical theater, and adults will find songs like "Gena Loada Toad" and "Cookies" getting under their skin as well - but in a good way. Jay Goede and Mark Linn-Baker lead the cast. Sw1ft Work Carolee Carmello and Gavin Creel lead a cast of Broadway and cabaret artists in this studio record­ ing of the rarely heard 1930 musical FINE AND DANDY (P.S. Classics Inc.). The score by Kay Swift, one of only few female composers working at that time, and Paul James, includes the classic "Can't We Be Friends?" As George Gershwin's assistant, Swift learned a thing or two from the mas­ ter. Mark Linn-Baker, Mario Cantone and Ann Hampton ~a ll away are also featured on the album. The Barber's Back At long last this 1982 performance of SWEENEY TODD (Warner) - starring original Mrs. Loven Angela Lansbury - has arrived on DVD. Stephen Sondheim's take on the barbarous barber whose unfortunate clients get served for dinner instead of shaved is gruesomely grand. Taped in Los Angeles during the national tour of the musical's original Broadway production, it effectively captures Harold Prince's majestic staging. Lansbury and co-star George Hearn are haunting and hilarious in their award-winning performances.

Charlie Smith's year-old creation, SCARLET GINGER (376 Atlantic Ave., 718-852-8205), features an eclectic mix of the owner's singular designs, hand-picked vintage pieces and one-of-a­ kind imports and pieces from local designers. Smith got her start in the London fashion world, designing an eponymous line of handbags. Soon after moving to New York with her family two years ago, she realized her dream of opening her own store. When the store first opened, Smith also rent­ ed vintage eveningwear. That sideline stopped after clients kept clamoring to buy the pieces they'd bor­ rowed. Smith develops her designs in an onsite workshop, and limits the production of any one design. The store has made a name for itself with tie-dyed vin­ tage slip dresses, and in addition to Smith's pieces (including a line of delicate knits handmade in Argentina), the boutique carries Sigh cheesecloth dresses, skirts and tops and Sendra custom-made cowboy boots from Spain. Vintage accessories, purses and jeans are a huge draw, as are the bags and pillows Smith creates with fabrics imported from France. Yvonne Chu is another designer making her home on Atlantic Avenue with KIMERA (366 Atlantic Ave., 718-422-1 147; also, 274 Fifth Ave., 718-965-1313). The store's interior-greens, oranges and yellows-speaks to the East meets West aesthetic of the store. The name, a play on the Chimera, a mythological fire-breathing monster with the liead of a lion, the body of a goat and the tail of a serpent, reflects the designer's interest in the blending of cultures. A dramatic collection of scarves in a range of fab­ rics from silk shantung to felted tulle greet you when you enter the store, which is a showcase for her off­ the-rack and custom designs. Chu produces a non­ traditional wedding and special occasion line and works primarily with silk shantung. The colors are vibrant, from scarlets and oranges to brilliant blues. In addition to her own pieces, Chu sells the work of other Brooklyn-based clothing and jewelry design­ ers: Tolonen is a line of hand-felted clothing and accessories, Cool not Cruel's designs are environ­ mentally friendly. The Patio Is Open Since the warm weather we yearn Nestled among the chic boutiques and perpetu­ al bodegas along Park Slope's new Seventh for in January is finally here, and Avenue is Patio Lounge (179 5th Ave., 718-857- it's not going anywhere until at least 3477). The aptly named space has a superb outdoor garden. Inside there are inviting couch­ September, why not get outside es, beta fish and a gigantic magna comic span­ and savor it? And you can do that ning the back wall Outside, ivy-{;overed trellises surround small round tables scattered among while you're savoring a good meal pebbles. Locals and couples taking in the night or refreshing happy hour drink at enjoy saki, sangria, wine and beer. Come here for happy hour (weekdays 5 to 8 p.m.) to taste one of these establishments. $10 pitchers of sangria. The white sangria, made with fresh apples, is refreshing during these sweaty months. You can also imbibe some of the tastiest saki drinks ever; including one made with sweet lychee juice and lots of fresh lime wedges-a new summer favorite. Don't pass up ordering a grilled cheese sand­ wich, "just like mom use to make" ($1 0) or a bowl of delicious edamame soaked in ginger, soy sauce, garlic and lemon ($4). Yum. Another soon-to-be talked about garden can be found in the recently opened restaurant on the border where Prospect Heights meets Prospect Park, Franny's (295 Flatbush Ave., 718-230- 0221 ) has wooden floors, small square tables and an exposed brick wall that give this pizzeria a modern Tuscany feel. The menu, determined by seasonal fruits and vegetables, changes daily. If rhubarb is in season when you visit, try the rhubarb bridge ($8.50), served in a martini glass with just the right amount of Kettle One, The 'Freaks' and Greats Take the Stage By Liz French The name Nile Rodgers may not carry instant recognition, but if you were around in the disco days of the 1970s you probably danced to his group Chic's chart-topping single "Le Freak." And it's the music that matters, as Rodgers learned from his longtime bandmate, bassist Bernard Edwards, at a sold-out concert in Tokyo 24 hours before Edwards' death in 1996.

    THE GOLDEN GATE BLUES SOCIETY NEWSLETTER Issue 6, July 2010 GOLDEN GATE GROOVES FROM THE EDITOR Deb Lubin The period since the last newsletter was published was very busy, with planning for upcoming blues society events, going out to hear our favorite local blues bands, and our annual pilgrimage to Memphis in May for the Blues Music Awards. The BMAs are a wonderful event that all blues lovers should attend at least once. This year in Memphis, we got to see many of our favorite musicians from the Bay Area, among them Rick Estrin and the Nightcats, including Kid Andersen; the entire Tommy Castro Band, which took home several awards; Laura Chavez and Kennan Shaw from Candye Kane's band; Maria Muldaur, and others with Bay Area ties. I had so much fun reconnecting with old friends both on and off the stage. Meanwhile, the GGBS is rolling. We're getting ready for several big events that we're either sponsoring, partnering with, or supporting, including the 5th annual Redwood City Blues Festival in July, the first U.S. events of the European-based charity United by Music , the San Jose Jazz Festival in August, and events to select a member band to compete in the Blues Foundation's International Blues Challenge (IBC) in Memphis in February 2011, among others. Please look for information about all of these events in this issue of the newsletter. In addition, East Bay musician/cat lover/pre-war blues specialist Joel Fritz reviews four CDs by local bands.

  • 'However Sick a Joke…': on Comedy, the Representation
    10 ‘However sick a joke…’: on comedy, the representation of suffering, Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s Melodrama and Volker Koepp’s Melancholy Stephanie Bird Primo Levi invokes the notion of a joke when he first arrives in Auschwitz. The prisoners, who have had nothing to drink for four days, are put into a room with a tap and a card that forbids drinking the water because it is dirty: ‘Nonsense. It seems obvious that the card is a joke, “they” know that we are dying of thirst and they put us in a room, and there is a tap, and Wassertrinken Verboten’.1 In Levi’s example, the relationship of mocked and mocker is clear, as is the moral evaluation that condemns those that would ridicule and taunt the prisoners. Yet in Imre Kertész’s novel Fateless, the moral clarity offered by Levi is obscured is absent from Kertész’s reference to the notion of a joke. In it, the 14 year-old boy, György Köves, describes how the procedure he and his fellow passengers must undergo from arrival in Birkenau to either the gas chambers or showers elicits in him a ‘sense of certain jokes, a kind of student prank’.2 Despite feeling increasingly queasy, for he is aware of the outcome of the procedure, György nevertheless has the impression of a stunt: gentlemen in imposing suits, smoking cigars who must have come up with a string of ideas, first of the gas, then of the bathhouse, next the soap, the flower beds, ‘and so on’ (Fateless, 111), jumping up and slapping palms when they conjured up a good one.

    What’s Past is Prologue: Filming Fascism and the Family in Japan and West Germany in the 1970s Jillian Helena Vasko A Thesis in The Mel Hoppenheim School of Cinema Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts (Film Studies) at Concordia University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada August 2017 © Jillian Vasko, 2017 CONCORDIA UNIVERSITY School of Graduate Studies This is to certify that the thesis prepared By: Jillian Vasko Entitled: What’s Past is Prologue: Filming Fascism and the Family in Japan and West Germany in the 1970s and submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (Film Studies) complies with the regulations of the University and meets the accepted standards with respect to originality and quality. Signed by the final Examining Committee: Marc Steinberg Chair Chair’s name Kay Dickinson Examiner Examiner’s name Yuriko Furuhata Examiner Examiner’s name Joshua Neves Supervisor Supervisor’s name Approved by Marc Steinberg Chair of Department or Graduate Program Director August 30th 2017 Rebecca Taylor Duclos Dean of Faculty Abstract: This thesis theorizes the correlation between national historical trauma in Japan and West Germany, and the excessive, gendered and often sexualized violence inflicted upon and by women protagonists in films emerging from these nations in the 1970s. The thesis provides a comparative analysis of two films which investigate the origins of ‘fascism’ in their nation through the allegory of the female protagonist and her relationship to the institution of the family: Toshiya Fujita’s 1973 Lady Snowblood (Shurayukihime) and Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s 1974 film Martha.

  • Newsletter 2004/2005
    THE FASSBINDER FOUNDATION Newsletter 2004/2005 Dear Friends, Partners, Followers and Supporters of RWFF and FF Inc., Since we did not send out a Newsletter last year we thought we should not delay in sending you this year's Newsletter before the spring is out. To start with, there is one especially good piece of news: we have "modernized" our website. In future, you will be able to find the latest reports and information at www.fassbinderfoundation.de under the heading NEWS. The German version is running since March 1, 2005, the English version will be ready shortly, and the French version from April 1, 2005 on. It is not only past events which we have cause to celebrate. We were particularly delighted to move offices in December 2003 to our new base at Giesebrechtstrasse 7, which is in the Berlin district of Charlottenburg not far from the Kurfürstendamm. Our new premises have been specially designed for our needs, and the move was organized so impeccably by our employee and Curator Dr. Daniel Kletke, who heads up logistics and coordination, that just one day after the official moving date, we were able to resume daily business. Since 2000 –and thus also last year –the focus of our work has been on the development and prepa- ration of our extensive RWF manuscript archive as well as preparations for releasing further Fass- binder films on DVD. With 24 titles having been released in the USA to date, this year we are launch- ing DVD editions in France, Belgium, Spain and Japan. From April 2005, the titles of sets 3 and 4 al- ready announced by e-m-s will be continued by Kinowelt Home Entertainment under the Arthaus label.
