  • GSC Films: S-Z
    GSC Films: S-Z Saboteur 1942 Alfred Hitchcock 3.0 Robert Cummings, Patricia Lane as not so charismatic love interest, Otto Kruger as rather dull villain (although something of prefigure of James Mason’s very suave villain in ‘NNW’), Norman Lloyd who makes impression as rather melancholy saboteur, especially when he is hanging by his sleeve in Statue of Liberty sequence. One of lesser Hitchcock products, done on loan out from Selznick for Universal. Suffers from lackluster cast (Cummings does not have acting weight to make us care for his character or to make us believe that he is going to all that trouble to find the real saboteur), and an often inconsistent story line that provides opportunity for interesting set pieces – the circus freaks, the high society fund-raising dance; and of course the final famous Statue of Liberty sequence (vertigo impression with the two characters perched high on the finger of the statue, the suspense generated by the slow tearing of the sleeve seam, and the scary fall when the sleeve tears off – Lloyd rotating slowly and screaming as he recedes from Cummings’ view). Many scenes are obviously done on the cheap – anything with the trucks, the home of Kruger, riding a taxi through New York. Some of the scenes are very flat – the kindly blind hermit (riff on the hermit in ‘Frankenstein?’), Kruger’s affection for his grandchild around the swimming pool in his Highway 395 ranch home, the meeting with the bad guys in the Soda City scene next to Hoover Dam. The encounter with the circus freaks (Siamese twins who don’t get along, the bearded lady whose beard is in curlers, the militaristic midget who wants to turn the couple in, etc.) is amusing and piquant (perhaps the scene was written by Dorothy Parker?), but it doesn’t seem to relate to anything.

  • Sweet Bird of Youth
    Sweet Bird of Youth Relentless caper for all those who step The legend of their youth into the noon —Hart Crane The American poet Hart Crane was Tennessee Williams’s spiritual and literary mentor. Williams traveled with a picture of Crane and a volume of his poetry. Central to Crane’s work was the notion of a “usable past,” the idea of using one’s own personal history as metaphor and material for art. Williams began his play Sweet Bird of Youth with the above quote from Crane, which suggests that Williams may have been drawing heavily on his own personal history when writing the play. The inability to change one’s past is a central theme of Sweet Bird of Youth. In the play, Chance Wayne, having caused Heavenly, the love of his life, to contract a venereal disease, becomes the companion of an aging actress, Alexandra del Lago (called Princess), hoping that she can help him establish an acting career. Chance returns to his hometown, St. Cloud, to attempt a reconciliation with Heavenly, but in the end he is unable to recapture the love that they shared. He is abandoned by Princess when her career takes a better turn, and in the end he submits to castration in retribution for his corruption of Heavenly. The items in this exhibition are selections from the Fred W. Todd Tennessee Williams Collection, which is now housed at the Williams Research Center. The Todd Collection is currently being processed; sections of the collection will be made available to the public as they are completed.
