Golden Globes Red Carpet Transformed by Black Dress Protest by Leanne Italie, Associated Press 01/12/2018 English IV: NTI Day 8 Golden Globes red carpet transformed by black dress protest By Leanne Italie, Associated Press 01/12/2018 Meryl Streep (left) and Ai-jen Poo arrive at the 75th annual Golden Globe Awards at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on January 7, 2018, in Beverly Hills, California. Photo by Jordan Strauss/Invision/AP The highly anticipated wear-black protest at the Golden Globes took off Sunday as soon as the red carpet opened, including A-listers Meryl Streep in a deep V-cut gown and Michelle Williams in an embellished off-the-shoulder look with "Me Too" founder Tarana Burke at her side. Streep, accompanied by domestic violence advocate Ai-jen Poo, said she chose black to stand in solidarity with others trying to right the power imbalance that leads to sexual abuse. "We want to fix that and we feel sort of emboldened in this particular moment to stand together in a thick black line," Streep told the black-clad Ryan Seacrest on the carpet in Beverly Hills, California. What would Katharine Graham think of all the black? "I think she'd be over the moon," said Streep, who portrays Graham in "The Post." Turning the Globes dark on the fashion front had been anticipated for days after a call for massive reform following the downfall of movie mogul Harvey Weinstein and numerous others accused of sexual misconduct in Hollywood, media, fashion, tech, publishing and other industries. The new initiative Time's Up, backed by more than 300 women in Hollywood, doled out pins intended in part for those who might already have locked in more colorful looks. Though the red carpet was dominated by black, actors made it their own: Allison Williams provided a pop of orange and silver on the bodice of her black Armani Prive column gown. Singer Kelly Clarkson sported gold at the neck and on one sleeve of her black Christian Siriano dress. "We're here because of Tarana," Michelle Williams told E! "Because Tarana started a movement and she planted the seed years ago." Burke added: "It's deeply humbling." Jessica Biel kept the fairy tale alive in a princessy strapless Dior with dainty sheer embellishment. Eva Longoria and Reese Witherspoon power coupled in strong black looks with clean lines — the pregnant Longoria's tuxedo inspired. Shailene Woodley donned a silk beaded turtleneck and black tulle evening skirt from Ralph Lauren Collection. Diane Kruger chose a Prada black-dotted tulle gown with a cascading shawl train, edges rimmed in fun metal beading. Claire Foy of the Netflix series "The Crown" went with a black pantsuit and Tracee Ellis Ross accessorized her black jersey halter dress by Marc Jacobs with a matching headscarf. Catherine Zeta-Jones wore a couture, sheer lace Zuhair Murad A- line gown. Margot Robbie, star of "I, Tonya," wore a custom Gucci black satin V-neck gown with crystal bow and three- dimensional floral embroideries. Susan Kelechi Watson, of "This Is Us," earned some social media attention for a low-cut trouser combo from Monsoori. It sparkled in the night's top color. One of the bite-sized stars of "Stranger Things," Sadie Sink, joined the black protest, paired with Chopard jewels. And the men? Well, Chris Sullivan wore the traditional black tuxedo and showed off black nail polish. Not everybody supported the protest. Rose McGowan, who has accused Weinstein of rape, has loudly and persistently called the effort an empty gesture. Daniel Kaluuya, star of "Get Out," supported in a black tux from Gucci with a Time's Up pin on his lapel. He said he feels privileged to stand by the women fighting against the unnecessary evils that are happening in the industry. Alison Brie, nominated for her Netflix wrestling show "Glow," wore a long, dramatic strapless top with a sweetheart neckline and pants underneath. She thinks change will come when more women are in power at the top and a lot more listening needs to happen across all industries. Connie Britton wore a black sweater with the words "poverty is sexist" embroidered on it. Alfred Molina was among those men who paired their traditional tuxedos with black shirts rather than the typical white ones. So did David Harbour of "Stranger Things," Nick Jonas and Bob Odenkirk. "It's out of solidarity in a way," Molina told the Associated Press. "I can tell you it's a very small gesture. Me wearing black isn't going to change anything, but from small gestures come big ones. I think it's important to let women know that you listen to them and believe them." Kendall Jenner had the social media choir puzzled as to why she was there. She won biggest dress in a huge high-low gown with a long train, nearly swallowing her up. Viola Davis showed off her natural hair in a body-hugging, black velvet custom Brandon Maxwell dress with a sweetheart neckline. Among the actors and actresses wearing black was Oprah Winfrey. The former talk show host, actress, film and TV producer gave a powerful speech when she accepted the Golden Globes' Cecil B. DeMille Award. She notably became the first black woman to be given the prestigious award. "For too long, women have not been heard or believed if they dared to speak their truth to the power of those men," Winfrey said. "But their time is up! Their time is up! Their time is up!" she shouted to a standing ovation. The phrase referenced the Time's Up initiative led by women in Hollywood, which was at the center of the message actresses sent by wearing mainly black at the Golden Globes this year. While a few actresses have worn black to the event before, never before have so many people worn so much black for the Golden Globes. Part 1: Multiple Choice 1. Which statement accurately represents the relationship between the article's CENTRAL ideas? (A) A wear-black protest by celebrities at the Golden Globes was highly anticipated by many; the most anticipated and most popular event of the evening was an inspiring speech by Oprah Winfrey as she received a lifetime achievement award. (B) A wear-black protest by celebrities at the Golden Globes was highly anticipated by many; however, some actors and actresses have expressed concern that it was an empty gesture that will actually accomplish little for those who have been victims. (C) Many actors and actresses transformed the Golden Globe Awards by choosing to wear black; while many feel privileged to work in Hollywood, they are disappointed by the sexual abuses that they did not realize were happening in the industry. (D) Many actors and actresses transformed the Golden Globe Awards by choosing to wear black; the highly anticipated event was meant to stand in solidarity with others trying to stand up against the power imbalance that leads to sexual abuse. 2. Read the two details from the article. "It's out of solidarity in a way," Molina told the Associated Press. "I can tell you it's a very small gesture. Me wearing black isn't going to change anything, but from small gestures come big ones. I think it's important to let women know that you listen to them and believe them." "For too long, women have not been heard or believed if they dared to speak their truth to the power of those men," Winfrey said. "But their time is up! Their time is up! Their time is up!" she shouted to a standing ovation. Select the option that BEST explains HOW these details develop a CENTRAL idea of the article. (A) Both details emphasize the view that celebrities have a responsibility to speak out against injustice whenever they see it. (B) Both details reflect the view that wearing black is only a gesture that cannot result in significant systemic change. (C) Both details highlight the perspective that current cultural changes should give women the confidence to speak out and be believed. (D) Both details illustrate the perspective that small steps are important in securing new rights and safeties to prevent sexual misconduct. 3. Which idea did the author develop LEAST in this article about the wear-black protests? (A) the arguments in favor of initiatives and protests like this one (B) the approach that some men in Hollywood took toward the protests (C) the relationship between the "Me Too" movement and the protests (D) the reasons why some people believe the protests were a waste of time 4. HOW does the author describe the wear-black protest over the course of the article? (A) The author begins by noting that prominent celebrities brought women's activists to the awards as their guests, then summarizes the wardrobe choices of many others who wore black. The author continues by quoting celebrities who are hopeful that this will lead to bigger change. (B) The author begins by describing the role that prominent actresses have historically played in bringing attention to women's issues in Hollywood, then provides background information on these issues. The author continues by contrasting men's attitudes toward women in the past and present. (C) The author begins with an anecdote about celebrities walking the red carpet at the Golden Globes, then outlines the movies that have made violence against women a prominent issue. The author concludes by emphasizing the need for greater change in the Hollywood system. (D) The author begins with a summary of the actresses and actors who wore black to this year's Golden Globes, then contrasts them with others who chose to wear colors.

  • Novel to Novel to Film: from Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway to Michael
    Rogers 1 Archived thesis/research paper/faculty publication from the University of North Carolina at Asheville’s NC DOCKS Institutional Repository: http://libres.uncg.edu/ir/unca/ Novel to Novel to Film: From Virginia Woolf’s Mrs. Dalloway to Michael Cunningham’s and Daldry-Hare’s The Hours Senior Paper Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For a Degree Bachelor of Arts with A Major in Literature at The University of North Carolina at Asheville Fall 2015 By Jacob Rogers ____________________ Thesis Director Dr. Kirk Boyle ____________________ Thesis Advisor Dr. Lorena Russell Rogers 2 All the famous novels of the world, with their well known characters, and their famous scenes, only asked, it seemed, to be put on the films. What could be easier and simpler? The cinema fell upon its prey with immense rapacity, and to this moment largely subsists upon the body of its unfortunate victim. But the results are disastrous to both. The alliance is unnatural. Eye and brain are torn asunder ruthlessly as they try vainly to work in couples. (Woolf, “The Movies and Reality”) Although adaptation’s detractors argue that “all the directorial Scheherezades of the world cannot add up to one Dostoevsky, it does seem to be more or less acceptable to adapt Romeo and Juliet into a respected high art form, like an opera or a ballet, but not to make it into a movie. If an adaptation is perceived as ‘lowering’ a story (according to some imagined hierarchy of medium or genre), response is likely to be negative...An adaptation is a derivation that is not derivative—a work that is second without being secondary.

  • Smoothing the Wrinkles Hollywood, “Successful Aging” and the New Visibility of Older Female Stars Josephine Dolan
    Template: Royal A, Font: , Date: 07/09/2013; 3B2 version: 9.1.406/W Unicode (May 24 2007) (APS_OT) Dir: //integrafs1/kcg/2-Pagination/TandF/GEN_RAPS/ApplicationFiles/9780415527699.3d 31 Smoothing the wrinkles Hollywood, “successful aging” and the new visibility of older female stars Josephine Dolan For decades, feminist scholarship has consistently critiqued the patriarchal underpinnings of Hollywood’s relationship with women, in terms of both its industrial practices and its representational systems. During its pioneering era, Hollywood was dominated by women who occupied every aspect of the filmmaking process, both off and on screen; but the consolidation of the studio system in the 1920s and 1930s served to reduce the scope of opportunities for women working in off-screen roles. Off screen, a pattern of gendered employment was effectively established, one that continues to confine women to so-called “feminine” crafts such as scriptwriting and costume. Celebrated exceptions like Ida Lupino, Dorothy Arzner, Norah Ephron, Nancy Meyers, and Katherine Bigelow have found various ways to succeed as producers and directors in Hollywood’s continuing male-dominated culture. More typically, as recently as 2011, “women comprised only 18% of directors, executive producers, cinematographers and editors working on the top 250 domestic grossing films” (Lauzen 2012: 1). At the same time, on-screen representations came to be increasingly predicated on a gendered star system that privileges hetero-masculine desires, and are dominated by historically specific discourses of idealized and fetishized feminine beauty that, in turn, severely limit the number and types of roles available to women. As far back as 1973 Molly Haskell observed that the elision of beauty and youth that underpins Hollywood casting impacted upon the professional longevity of female stars, who, at the first visible signs of aging, were deemed “too old or over-ripe for a part,” except as a marginalized mother or older sister.
