Four perfectly healthy young men were stretched out lazily on the grass in front of the new George Washington Hall, in attitudes which expressed disdain for all forms of mental and physical exertion. Every¬ where around them frenzied people were hurrying to and fro, shouting vague questions and consult¬ ing mysterious documents. Not far away, on the massive granite portico of the great Main Build¬ ing, were little clusters of bewildered youngsters, evidently hoping that some one would soon come along to tell them what to do. Now and then a huge truck would rumble up to Phillips or Bartlet Halls and disgorge a load of miscellaneous bag¬ gage. Indeed, these four idlers were the only ones in the immediate vicinity who looked com¬ pletely at peace with the world. 11 12 THE ANDOVER WAY They happened to be close friends who were slowly getting reacquainted after the three months of summer vacation,—friends so inti¬ mate that they were often known as the “ Four Musketeers,” Athos, Porthos, Aramis, and D’Ar- tagnan. Very different in character and person¬ ality, they had certain fundamental ideas on which they were agreed, and among them they represented nearly all the important phases of Andover school life. Suddenly the chimes in the imposing Memorial Tower struck eleven, and one of the group rose on his elbow to listen attentively. “ Say, those bells do sound good to me,” he ex¬ claimed, when the last echo had died away. “ Over in Day Hall last year I used to hate them, espe¬ cially when ‘ Doc ’ Schleiermacher would wake us up by playing them early on holidays. But this summer out in Montana, off on the plains where there wasn’t any noise at all, I used to feel mighty lonely without them. The ‘ Doc’ can rattle away as much as he likes for all of me.” The speaker was a muscular, square-jawed chap, with curly auburn hair, piercing blue eyes, and a look of independence on his handsome face. His stolid indifference to the bustle near him was a THE HERO APPEARS 13 positive indication that he had been through it all before. As a matter of fact, he was a senior, “ Steve ” Fisher by name, who, as halfback on the eleven and captain of the baseball team, was a personage in the academy. But the honors which he had won did not seem to fill his companions with awe. “ That’s all piffle, you know! ” burst out a tall, dark-complexioned fellow, with a haughty manner and a somewhat cynical expression hovering over his lips. “You talk like a sweet young thing! After you’ve been back a week or two you’ll be cursing at those clanging bells like all the rest of us.” It was “ Hal ” Manning, editor of the school paper, a highly sophisticated gentleman, who liked to boast that he had tasted life and found it ashes. He resembled the Athos of Dumas’s romance, and had even been known to wear a carnation in his buttonhole. “ Oh, dry up, Hal! ” growled a burly hulk of a boy, with a neck like a Roman gladiator and yel¬ low pompadour hair. “You make me tired! Just because you dwell in Boston’s Back Bay and your Pilgrim ancestors stole Cape Cod from a tribe of helpless Indians, you consider yourself privileged to laugh at all sentiment. You really 14 THE ANDOVER WAY love Andover as much as any of us.” These re¬ marks came from “ Joe ” Watson, a genial giant, who was captain of the track team and uni¬ versally popular because of his skill as a shot- putter, his football prowess, and his good nature. He was the Porthos of the group. “ Yes,” added Steve, “ all this place has done for Hal is to teach him to conceal his unselfish impulses behind a sinister sneer. He has devel¬ oped into a model movie villain, who ought to stalk up and down gnawing his nether lip and blowing clouds of smoke into the air.” “ Well, when you come right down to it, Steve, what has Andover done for you? ” This query, in a sarcastic tone, came from the last member of the quartette, a thin youth with a rather discon¬ tented countenance, whose fondness for the spec¬ tacular was shown by his bright blazer and loud flannel knickerbockers. He was “ Ted ” Sher¬ man, manager of the football team and a very active and shrewd politician,—Aramis, beyond a doubt. “ What do you want me to answer? ” replied Steve, undisturbed by the insinuation. “ It has knocked a little sense into my bony cranium, I hope. It has made me understand that I don’t THE HERO APPEARS 15 know quite everything. That’s what it does for nearly everybody.” “ Righto! ” put in Joe, coming to Steve’s de¬ fense. “ It takes the conceit out of us. And it still has a lot to do in some cases I know.” He glanced significantly in Hal’s direction. “At last I feel at home again,” commented Hal. “ I’ve been waiting for that courteous retort. It’s the same gang that we had last year. Rave on, will you, and get it out of your systems. I’m willing to admit, if it will do any good, that I’m glad to be back, even if I do have to associate with low company once more.” The repartee was about to become more spir¬ ited, but just then Ted, rising to a sitting posture, interrupted by crying out, “ Say, what’s this com¬ ing? It’s a 4 knock-out,’ by George! You say that Andover improves men! What do you sup¬ pose even this school can do to develop stuff like that? ” Following the line of Ted’s extended finger, his companions saw what were evidently a mother and son, the latter obviously a new student. He was fully six feet in height and had a big frame, but he had a pronounced stoop forward and was very thin, so that he seemed about to float off 16 THE ANDOVER WAY at any moment in the light south breeze. His broad forehead bulged out over his eyes, which were hidden behind tortoise-shell spectacles of unusually large circumference. On his head was a wide-brimmed white fedora hat, of a type never worn in Andover except by octogenarians, and his cravat was so conspicuously crimson that it flamed in the sunlight. Little patches of hair, growing down his cheeks in the shape of “ side¬ burns/’ gave him an oddly foreign look. His tweed suit, which was tight and closely-fitted in the European style, allowed his bony wrists to project into space, like those of the famous Icha- bod Crane. He resembled nothing so much as a comic-paper caricature of little Rollo from Beacon Hill. All four boys sat up straighter to have a better view of this unexpected apparition. “What do you call it?” asked Joe in amaze¬ ment, as his eyes travelled over the strange figure. “ Name it yourself,” answered Hal. “ It looks for all the world as if the keeper of the zoo had been careless.” “ No, you’re wrong,” said Joe, who had a literal mind. “ It’s really a ‘ prep,’ and he is bringing his mother to see that he gets started right. See how he’s banging on her arm.” I <4* Ctoj) Obviously a new student .—Page 15. THE HERO APPEARS 17 “ If that is a sure-enough ‘ prep/ we’re going to have a strong candidate for Joe’s place in the line. Gase upon those legs! Wouldn’t he shine in a scrimmage? ” “ Yes,” mused Ted, “ I suppose you fellows think that this school is going to transform that kind of raw material into a finished product worth having, don’t you? ” “ I’m not so sure,” replied Steve.

  • Film Flashback… the SIXTH SENSE PREMIERES on 8/2/1999 We Know How Most Movies Will End Before We See Them
    Monday, August 2, 2021 | No. 179 Film Flashback… THE SIXTH SENSE PREMIERES ON 8/2/1999 We know how most movies will end before we see them. Boy loses girl, but gets girl back. Killers are captured or shot escaping. Superheroes live to save the universe again. Horror villains survive to return in sequels. A notable exception to audience expectations came with the premiere Aug. 2, 1999 of M. Night Shyamalan's thriller "THE SIXTH SENSE." No one was expecting its now legendary ending, although the filmmakers worried they'd given some visual clues that might reveal too much about those "dead people" Haley Joel Osment famously insisted he could see. As it turned out, the clues went unseen. What was seen were long lines at theatres, where Universal opened "SIXTH" to a then sizable $26.7M. It did $672.8M worldwide, kick-starting Shyamalan's career. Twenty-two years later, he's still one of very few directors whose names are well enough known to bring moviegoers into theatres. When Shyamalan's latest film, "OLD," opened #1 last weekend, it was his sixth out of 11 films to do so. Since "SIXTH," he's become identified with twist endings that leave audiences wondering how they missed seeing them. Over the years, of course, some films worked better globally than others -- like "SIGNS" (2016) with $408.2M, "THE LAST AIRBENDER" (2010) with “I see dead people…” $319.7M, "SPLIT" (2016) with $278.5M & "UNBREAKABLE" (2000) with $248.1M. Click to Play As enviable as Shyamalan's successes have been, there's also a long list of high profile projects he turned down along the way.

  • SAMUEL GOLDWYN (NOT) BORN 8/27/1882 Most of the Pioneers Who Started the Film Business About 120 Years Ago Are Unfamiliar Names Today
    Monday, August 23, 2021 | No. 182 Film Flashback… SAMUEL GOLDWYN (NOT) BORN 8/27/1882 Most of the pioneers who started the film business about 120 years ago are unfamiliar names today. Samuel Goldwyn is an exception – but for the wrong reason. People recognize Goldwyn as Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's middle name, but don't realize he was never part of MGM. Actually, Goldwyn wasn't even the legendary producer's birth name and August 27, 1882 wasn't really his birthday – although he always said it was. No one knows the real date, but it's agreed he was born in Warsaw and anglicized his name to Samuel Goldfish. In 1913, as a successful New York glove salesman, he became interested in making movies. With difficulty, Sam convinced his then brother-in-law, Jesse Lasky, that there was big money in films. They began by producing the first feature film ever made in Hollywood, The Squaw Man. Sam stayed in New York to sell the distribution rights. From the start, Sam was a difficult partner no matter whom he partnered with. He enjoyed fighting just for the sake of fighting – even with people who agreed with him. This led to big problems when Lasky merged with Adolph Zukor's Famous Players. Zukor was president of both Click to Play FP-L and its distribution arm. Goldfish was chairman of FP-L, which later adopted its distributor's name – Paramount Pictures. By August 1916, Zukor and Goldwyn's relationship had deteriorated so badly that Zukor gave Lasky an ultimatum – either Goldfish goes or Zukor goes.

  • Film Flashback… JAWS Opened on 6/20/1975 Box Office Results
    Monday, June 21, 2021 | No. 173 Film Flashback… JAWS Opened on 6/20/1975 Our summer box office recovery got a blockbuster start with A QUIET PLACE PART 2 and will soon be delivering likely blockbusters such as F9 and BLACK WIDOW. We take mega-hits for granted now, but 46 years ago there weren't any. Blockbuster business requires very wide distribution with costly marketing campaigns to drive moviegoers into theatres opening weekend. That's not something studios did until June 20, 1975 when Universal opened Steven Spielberg's scary thriller JAWS about a great white shark terrorizing a summer resort. It starred Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw & Richard Dreyfuss. Spielberg wasn't quite "Spielberg" yet. He'd only made one feature, Universal's crime drama SUGARLAND EXPRESS starring Goldie Hawn, but it put him on track to do bigger things. For his next film, he convinced SE's well connected power producers Richard D. Zanuck & David Brown to let him direct JAWS. In 1973 they'd purchased the rights to JAWS pre-publication for $175,000. JAWS had the right ingredients to be a blockbuster. It was based on Peter Benchley's bestselling novel, had a high concept action storyline and beach settings that were perfect for summertime moviegoing. Jaws (1975) is widely credited as In those days, studios didn't open movies at 4,000 theatres with expensive TV ad campaigns. the first Summer Blockbuster Films typically opened in New York & L.A. and, perhaps, a few other major markets where they Click to Play were reviewed and generated publicity -- in newspapers & magazines and on radio.

  • Film Flashback… Cecil B. Demille Born 8/12/1881
    Monday, August 16, 2021 | No. 181 Film Flashback… Cecil B. DeMille Born 8/12/1881 Only a handful of directors have emerged over the years as household names able to attract moviegoers to see their films. Spielberg, Hitchcock & Chaplin come to mind as does Cecil B. DeMille, whose birth Aug. 12, 1881 came years before anyone was making movies. The roots of DeMille's film career go back to 1911 when fate sent vaudeville producer Jesse Lasky to see DeMille's mother, who had an agency in New York representing playwrights. Lasky needed a writer for an operetta. He wanted Mrs. DeMille's well known son William, but William was doing a play for Broadway impresario David Belasco. Mrs. DeMille strongly recommended her younger son, Cecil. Not expecting much, Lasky met with Cecil, who talked himself into the job -- and got Lasky to put up a then sizable $100 advance. After their operetta succeeded, DeMille became a close associate of Lasky, who by 1913 was in a group preparing to film the play "THE SQUAW MAN," which Dustin Farnum had starred in on Broadway in 1911. The group included Sam Goldfish; a glove salesman then married to Lasky's sister. Their new venture, the Jesse L. Lasky Feature Play Company, raised $26,500. Acquiring rights to the play cost $5,000. Farnum got $5,000 salary after cautiously turning down their offer of a 25% stake in the new company. DeMille, who was in charge of making the film, and Farnum set out by train for Flagstaff, Arizona. Flagstaff had sounded like the perfect location, but when they got there, they saw absolutely nothing.
