    “Something Else Besides a Mother”: Stella Dallas and the Maternal Melodrama Linda Williams JCMS: Journal of Cinema and Media Studies, Cinema Journal Retrospective, pp. 2-27 (Article) Published by Michigan Publishing DOI: https://doi.org/10.1353/cj.2018.0091 For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/707330 [ Access provided at 29 Sep 2021 07:56 GMT with no institutional affiliation ] "Something Else Besides a Mother": Stella Dallas and the Maternal Melodrama by Linda Williams Oh, God! I'll never forget that last scene, when her daughter is being married inside the big house with the high iron fence around it and she's standing out there-I can't even remember who it was, I saw it when I was still a girl, and I may not even be remembering it right. But I am remembering it-it made a tremendous impression on me-anyway, maybe it was Barbara Stanwyck. She's standing there and it's cold and raining and she's wearing a thin little coat and shivering, and the rain is coming down on her poor head and streaming down her face with the tears, and she stands there watching the lights and hearing the music and then she just drifts away. How they got us to consent to our own eradication! I didn't just feel pity for her; I felt that shock of recognition-you know, when you see what you sense is your own destiny up there on the screen or on the stage. You might say I've spent my whole life trying to arrange a different destiny!' These words of warning, horror, and fascination are spoken by Val, a character who is a mother herself, in Marilyn French's 1977 novel The Women's Room.

  • Betty Macdonald – of Eggs, Plagues and Cures 1908-1958
    Betty MacDonald – Of Eggs, Plagues and Cures 1908-1958 Betty MacDonald, was born Ann Elizabeth Campbell Bard March 26, 1908 in Colorado. As a child she lived in mining camps in Idaho, Montana and Mexico, thriving on the rugged life (or did she?). She became one of America’s best-loved humorists, dying of cancer February 7, 1958 at 49. When she was only 12 years old her father died. Betty then lived with her mother and her grandmother. Gammy told and read stories to Betty every night. Betty had two sisters and one brother. Graduating from Lincoln High in Seattle, Betty attended, but didn’t complete studies at the University of Washington. Instead she met Bob Haskett and married him in 1927. An insurance salesman, Bob announced on their honeymoon that he had bought a chicken farm! This was a challenging life, essentially a big chore, and Betty never took to it. They lived near Chimacum, a village just south of Port Townsend on the Olympic Peninsula. The Egg & I stories derive from her experiences on the chicken farm. Having had enough, Betty divorced Bob, and moved in with her mother and sister in Seattle, taking her two girls. Betty was the first woman to work for the government at the National Recovery Administration. She married her second husband, Donald MacDonald, in 1942. She wrote nine books.

  • The First Radios Were Introduced in the Intermountain Region and Used By
    The first radios were introduced in the Intermountain Region and used by the Forest Service in about 1928 or 1929*, and required a pack outfit to haul them in plus tools and equipment to set them up. They were a great aid to Forest Service men. 1/ The first two-way radios were used about 1937 or 1938 for communication between fire camps and the Supervisor's Of- fice in Jackson. 2/ Voice communication via a system of radio repeater stations, was established in 1964 on the Teton National Forest. With the completion of a radio repeater station constructed on Hawk's Rest Mountain in the Teton Wilderness Area radio con- tact was now possible to practically any area in the back country of the Wilderness area. Other stations located at Phillips Ridge, Rosie's Ridge, Monument Ridge, Oil Well Ridge and Huckleberry Mountain enable radio communications over practically the entire Teton National Forest. The system also includes radio transmitters and receivers at all Ranger Stations and Guard Stations, along with mobile radio units in some of the Forest Service vehicles and several hand portable radios. 3/ The repeater stations pick up radio signals, amplify them and then rebroadcast the signal. This allows a radio signal which is broadcast from any location of the Forest to be heard anywhere else on the Forest. 4/ The radio network was established to provide quick and adequate communications between District Rangers, field men, and the Supervisor's office. It is also used in times of emergency such as coordinating the search efforts for lost persons, avalanche rescues, fire and civil defense.

  • We Hold These Truths” (December 15, 1941) Added to the National Registry: 2004 Essay by Mary Ann Watson (Guest Post)*
    “We Hold These Truths” (December 15, 1941) Added to the National Registry: 2004 Essay by Mary Ann Watson (guest post)* Norman Corwin “We Hold These Truths” (Bill of Rights Special) aired December 15, 1941 and was written, produced and directed by Norman Corwin. It was commissioned to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the American Bill of Rights. The hour-long broadcast was carried by CBS, NBC-Red, NBC-Blue, and the Mutual Broadcasting network, eight days after the attack on Pearl Harbor. William B. Lewis, the vice-president of programming at the CBS radio network, who had hired Norman Corwin, in 1938, left his post at CBS to join the war effort by working in the Office of Facts and Figures (later to become the Office of War Information). The Office of Facts and Figures planned to celebrate the sesquicentennial of the American Bill of Rights in December 1941. Lewis urged the planning committee to use radio in the effort. With the support of President Franklin Roosevelt, Lewis proposed a monumental broadcast to be aired on all the major radio networks in prime time. Lewis thought of the one man to handle the task to create the show to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the ratification of the first ten amendments to the U.S. Constitution on December 15, 1941 was Norman Corwin. Corwin, already recognized as radio’s greatest writer, was flattered by the faith of his former boss, but freshly exhausted after the completion his series “Twenty Six by Corwin”; he was reluctant to take on the enormous project.

Born in February 1890 in Acton, Indiana, Main was given the name Mary Tomlinson but changed it when she became an actress to avoid embarrassing her family, who did not approve of her chosen career. During her childhood, her family moved to Elkhart, Indiana, and she grew up as a rural farm girl. Despite her pastor father's disapproval of acting, Main was actually inspired to act from his family readings of Charles Dickens and would regularly put on performances for the family. Main continued with her love of performing, first attending first Franklin College in Indiana and then Hamilton College's School of Dramatic Expression in Lexington, Kentucky.

  • Marjorie Main Acton, Marion County February 24, 1890 – April 10, 1975
    Marjorie Main Acton, Marion County February 24, 1890 – April 10, 1975 Born Mary Tomlinson in Acton, Indiana, Marjorie Main adopted a stage name to avoid embarrassing her father who was a church minister and did not approve of dramatics as a form of entertainment. She briefly attended Franklin College in Indiana but left to attend Hamilton School of Dramatic Expression in Lexington, Kentucky. Upon graduation, she taught dramatics for a year but eventually went into vaudeville in the 1910s and debuted on Broadway in 1916. After marrying Dr. Stanley Krebs, in 1921, she more or less gave up performing. For the next several years, she spent most of their time traveling with her husband and helping him with his work. Since his activities kept him mostly in New York City, she returned to the stage with his approval and appeared in several W.C. Fields productions on Broadway. But with the death of her husband in 1935, Marjorie began working again. Her film career began with small roles in the early 1930s. The scratchy-voiced Marjorie became a character actress, appearing in almost 100 films during her twenty year career as a contract player for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. Her film debut was in A House Divided (1931); but, her breakthrough role was that of the impoverished mother of gangster, Humphrey Bogart, in Dead End (1937). She earned an Oscar nomination for Best Actress in a Supporting Role for The Egg and I. She also appeared in the film adaptation of Jessamyn West’s Friendly Persuasion (1956), which earned her a Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actress.
