  • 1 “I Grew up Loving Cars and the Southern California Car Culture. My Dad Was a Parts Manager at a Chevrolet Dealership, So V
    “I grew up loving cars and the Southern California car culture. My dad was a parts manager at a Chevrolet dealership, so ‘Cars’ was very personal to me — the characters, the small town, their love and support for each other and their way of life. I couldn’t stop thinking about them. I wanted to take another road trip to new places around the world, and I thought a way into that world could be another passion of mine, the spy movie genre. I just couldn’t shake that idea of marrying the two distinctly different worlds of Radiator Springs and international intrigue. And here we are.” — John Lasseter, Director ABOUT THE PRODUCTION Pixar Animation Studios and Walt Disney Studios are off to the races in “Cars 2” as star racecar Lightning McQueen (voice of Owen Wilson) and his best friend, the incomparable tow truck Mater (voice of Larry the Cable Guy), jump-start a new adventure to exotic new lands stretching across the globe. The duo are joined by a hometown pit crew from Radiator Springs when they head overseas to support Lightning as he competes in the first-ever World Grand Prix, a race created to determine the world’s fastest car. But the road to the finish line is filled with plenty of potholes, detours and bombshells when Mater is mistakenly ensnared in an intriguing escapade of his own: international espionage. Mater finds himself torn between assisting Lightning McQueen in the high-profile race and “towing” the line in a top-secret mission orchestrated by master British spy Finn McMissile (voice of Michael Caine) and the stunning rookie field spy Holley Shiftwell (voice of Emily Mortimer).

  • Sociaal Darwinisme Op De Werkvloer
    SOCIAAL DARWINISME OP DE WERKVLOER Voorstelling: Glengarry Glen Ross door Toneelgroep Amsterdam / Toneelschuur Producties Gezien: 29 september, Theater Frascati, Amsterdam Door: Daniël Bertina Regisseur Eric de Vroedt maakte een bewerking van het toneelstuk Glengarry Glen Ross van David Mamet. Mamets grimmige kritiek op de kapitalistische graaicultuur krijgt in de versie van De Vroedt een manische vrolijkheid mee. Hoe ervaar je een toneelstuk als je de filmversie hebt verslonden? Empire. Keizerrijk. In grote rode neonletters hangt dit woord boven over de hoofden van de acteurs. Als een zwaard van Damokles. Onder deze dreigende boodschap staan – als een groep onderdanen – vijf zakenmannen achter elkaar fel blauwe cocktails achterover te slaan. Deze snelle vastgoedjongens, gehuld in afgrijselijk glimmende maatpakken, zijn aan het netwerken in de lounge van een Aziatisch restaurant. Druk in gesprek, en flirtend met de serveerster is toch de spanning voelbaar: het zijn krappe tijden. Ontslag dreigt voor twee van hen, en het is ieder voor zich. Dit is Glengarry Glen Ross. Mercedes Benz Regisseur Eric de Vroedt bewerkte het stuk voor acteurs van Toneelgroep Amsterdam (TA-2), in coproductie met De Toneelschuur. Glengarry Glen Ross is een toneelstuk in twee bedrijven, en volgt in die vorm een avond en ochtend in het leven van vier vastgoedverkopers – Roma, Mos, Levi en Aaron – die in hun werk worden bijgestaan door Willems, een stuntelende manager. Op hun vastgoedkantoor is een markante verkoopwedstrijd uitgeschreven. Eerste prijs is een bonus en een Mercedes Benz, de tweede prijs een set steakmessen. De derde en vierde prijs? Ontslag. In een wanhopige poging het hoofd boven water te houden en hun baan te behouden staan de werknemers elkaar – scheldend, tierend en huilend – naar het leven.

  • It Started with the Maze…
    It started with the maze… In The Maze Runner Thomas (Dylan O’Brien) woke up as he was being delivered to the glade. He had no memory of who he was or why he’d become a member of a community of young people; among them Minho (Ki Hong Lee), lead maze runner; Newt (Thomas Brodie- Sangster), a good friend and advisor, Gally (Will Poulter), a leader and adversary and Teresa (Kaya Scodelario), the only female glader, with whom Thomas may have a potentially dark history. Together they are trapped, surrounded by 200 foot walls and an ever-changing maze. Bad turns to worse when the gladers finally escape the maze only to discover they are in the middle of a desolate wasteland called The Scorch. In Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials , Thomas and the surviving gladers met new allies while discovering clues about a mysterious group behind all of their “tests” – an organization known as WCKD. With Maze Runner: The Death Cure the motives of WCKD become clearer: Dr. Ava Paige, WCKD’s executive director is close to what she believes is a cure for the disease known as The Flare, an infection that has decimated the world’s population. But the cure comes by sacrificing the few young people left in the world who are apparently immune. In order to free those who have been rounded up as test subjects, including his friend Minho, Thomas must now band together with fellow survivors, old and new, and take the battle to what may be the last remaining city and the final stronghold of WCKD.

  • An Analysis of Three Plays by David Mamet Through the Lens of Kirkian Conservatism
    PROTECT, PRESERVE, AND REFORM: AN ANALYSIS OF THREE PLAYS BY DAVID MAMET THROUGH THE LENS OF KIRKIAN CONSERVATISM Jennifer Shadle A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2018 Committee: Angela Ahlgren, Advisor Jonathan Chambers © 2018 Jennifer Shadle All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Angela Ahlgren, Advisor American playwright David Mamet announced his conservatism in 2004 through an article in The Village Voice. While many of his plays have inspired scholarship, especially regarding the use of unethical business practices in his work, analyses of the influence of his conservatism are rare. With a mixed methodology of character and literary analysis, through a lens of Kirkian conservatism, I examine the implications of conservative themes in character interactions in three of David Mamet’s plays. Specifically, I explore the mentor/student relationship in American Buffalo (1975), the spirit or potential of the individual in Glengarry Glen Ross (1984), and natural law and justice in The Anarchist (2012). I found that a question at the heart of conservatism, what must be preserved, protected, and reformed so that society may progress, was also a vital component to Mamet’s work. It is my hope that my study will expand existing scholarship about the philosophies of playwrights, and that I might provide a voice to a previously unexplored group in theatre. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First, to my advisor, Angela Ahlgren, I would like to convey my gratitude. Her wisdom and thoughtful questions were invaluable in crafting this study, and I can’t properly express my appreciation for all the ways she pushed me to think more intently about Mamet and Kirk.

After doing so, they were required to write an essay which identified and illustrated the strategies used by the screenwriter and director to open up the play and make it more cinematic. avid Mamet’s play Glengarry Glen Ross, first staged and published in 1983, won the author a Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1984 (Sauer 143). It was hailed by one critic as “a play with Dreal muscle,” “carving characters and conflicts out of language” (Cushman). In addition to the Pulitzer, the play earned accolades from the New York Drama Critics Circle, the Dramatists Guild, and a nomination for a Tony Award (Sauer 143). Given the play’s success, the process of translating it into a feature film would be a daunting task for even the most expert of filmmakers.
