  • Marlon Riggs
    Speaking the Self: Cinema of Transgression Flaming Creatures “At once primitive and sophisticated, hilarious and poignant, spontaneous and studied, frenzied and languid, crude and delicate, avant and nostalgic, gritty and fanciful, fresh and faded, innocent and jaded, high and low, raw and cooked, underground and camp, black and white and white on white, composed and decomposed, richly perverse and gloriously impoverished, Flaming Creatures was something new. Had Jack Smith produced nothing other than this amazing artifice, he would still rank among the great visionaries of American film.” [J. Hoberman] Jack Smith: Flaming Creatures, 1963 • Writer, performance artist, actor. Classic “downtown” underground personality. • Smith endorsed a realm of “secret flix” ranging from B-grade horror movies to Maureen O'Hara Spanish Galleon films, from Busby Berkeley musicals to Dorothy Lamour sarong movies. Singled out Universal Pictures' “Queen of Technicolor,” Maria Montez, star of exotic adventure films such as Arabian Nights (1942), Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves (1944), and Cobra Woman (1944). • Loose tableau set to scratchy needle-drop music: “polymorphous perverse.” • Banned in New York state, 1964. Vigorous defense by Susan Sontag and others. Outsiders • David Lynch: “John Waters opened up an important space for all of us.” Pink Flamingos • Why has this work come to be celebrated? Midnight Movie shock value or esthetic/cultural importance? • What role does this film play in the lives of its actors? • Film as an esthetic experience vs. film as a liberatory social rallying cry. Compare to punk music. • How does this film address its audience? How might “specific, historical audiences” read this differently? Outsiders “The term camp—normally used as an adjective, even though earliest recorded uses employed it mainly as a verb—refers to the deliberate and sophisticated use of kitsch, mawkish or corny themes and styles in art, clothing or conversation.

  • Edward Said: on Orientalism
    MEDIA EDUCATION FOUNDATIONChallenging media TRANSCRIPT EDWARD SAID: ON ‘ORIENTALISM’ EDWARD SAID On ‘Orientalism’ Executive Producer & Director: Sut Jhally Producer & Editor: Sanjay Talreja Assistant Editor: Jeremy Smith Featuring an interview with Edward Said Professor, Columbia University and author of Orientalism Introduced by Sut Jhally University of Massachusetts-Amherst 2 INTRODUCTION [Montage of entertainment and news images] SUT JHALLY: When future scholars take a look back at the intellectual history of the last quarter of the twentieth century the work of Professor Edward Said of Columbia University will be identified as very important and influential. In particular Said's 1978 book, Orientalism, will be regarded as profoundly significant. Orientalism revolutionized the study of the Middle East and helped to create and shape entire new fields of study such as Post-Colonial theory as well influencing disciplines as diverse as English, History, Anthropology, Political Science and Cultural Studies. The book is now being translated into twenty-six languages and is required reading at many universities and colleges. It is also one of the most controversial scholarly books of the last thirty years sparking intense debate and disagreement. Orientalism tries to answer the question of why, when we think of the Middle East for example, we have a preconceived notion of what kind of people live there, what they believe, how they act. Even though we may never have been there, or indeed even met anyone from there. More generally Orientalism asks, how do we come to understand people, strangers, who look different to us by virtue of the color of their skin? The central argument of Orientalism is that the way that we acquire this knowledge is not innocent or objective but the end result of a process that reflects certain interests.

  • Trash Is Truth: Performances of Transgressive Glamour
    TRASH IS TRUTH: PERFORMANCES OF TRANSGRESSIVE GLAMOUR JON DAVIES A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Graduate Programme in Film and Video, Critical and Historical Studies. York University Toronto, Ontario June 2004 1 2 3 Abstract I will examine several transgressive and transformative performances of glamour in American queer cinema. Primarily, I will look at Mario Montez in the films of Andy Warhol and of Jack Smith (1960s), Divine in the films of John Waters (1970s), and George Kuchar in his own video diaries (1980s). These performances are contradictory, messy, abject, and defiant; they are also profoundly moving to identifying spectators. The power of these performances lies in their harnessing of the experience of shame from queer childhood as a force to articulate deviant queer subjectivities. By forging a radical form of glamour based on a revaluation of trash and low culture, these performances refuse to value authenticity over artifice, beauty over ugliness, truth over trash. This trash glamour is intimately connected to the intense star identification of Hollywood cinematic spectacle that was a survival strategy for queer male children in post-World War Two America. 4 Table of Contents Abstract 4 Table of Contents 5 Introduction 6 1.

  • “I Look Sexy-But Sweet”: Notes on Mario and Maria Montez
    “I look Sexy-but Sweet”: Notes on Mario and Maria Montez Mediático is delighted to present below an essay on Latina star of the 1940s Maria Montez, and Warhol superstar and drag pioneer Mario Montez by Roberto Ortiz, an independent scholar. He is working on a book on female stardom in classic Mexican cinema and another on Latino icons and camp stardom (Intellect) that will dedicate a chapter to Maria Montez.” “I adopted my name from her. She does everything with such fire—nothing is pretended.” –Mario Montez, 1967 “I am sick and tired of those [publicity] photographs. They make me look like a smoldering fire.” –Maria Montez, 1944 I must have first come across the name of Mario Montez (1935-2013) sometime during grad school, but I didn’t really pay attention to his work until much later, following a casual conversation with a scholar who had written about him. He spoke admiringly of José Rodriguez-Soltero’s little-seen 1966 film Life, Death and Assumption of Lupe Velez and fondly of meeting its star, Mario Montez. When he described him, the adjective that stuck to my mind was “sweet,” a word that I did not associate with being a member of New York City’s queer underground arts scene in the 1960s. I was reminded of that last year while reading film critic J. Hoberman’s obituary of Mario Montez :“Mario was a sweet, unassuming, modest man, and once he went into character, every inch a star” (2013). Hoberman’s words also brought to mind a 1944 profile describing Dominican movie star Maria Montez (1912-1951), after whom Mario took his stage name: “She is a junior Dietrich, a sultrier Lamour.

  • David Parkinson, “Festivals and Seasons,” Empire, September, 2011
    David Parkinson, “Festivals and Seasons,” Empire, September, 2011. Jack Smith is one of the talismen of the 1960s American avant-garde. Difficult, provocative and far from prolific, he was besotted with the 1940s Queen of Technicolor, Maria Montez, and it's fitting that A Feast for Open Eyes, the ICA's retrospective of his little-seen canon, commences on the 60th anniversary of the day that the Dominican-born star drowned in her bath in Paris at the tragically young age of 39. The programme will make virtually no sense to newcomers unless they first watch Mary Jordan's outstanding documentary Jack Smith and the Destruction of Atlantis (2006). Making inspired use of clips from Smith's eclectic oeuvre and recollections from those who either worked with him or count him as a crucial influence, this not only puts the work in a biographical context, but also goes some way to explaining its recurrent themes and motifs. Indeed, so compelling and compassionate is this profile that some may even come to find Smith's art much less interesting than his life. Sister Mary Sue Slater proves key to unlocking Smith's paranoid and ultimately self-destructive personality by revealing the traumas he suffered as a boy. Born in Columbus, Ohio he lost his father at an early age and despised his mother for marrying twice more and relocating him to Galveston, Texas and Kenosha, Wisconsin. His only solace in this unhappy period was his weekly trip to the movies and it was here he was bewitched by the fantasy teamings of Maria Montez and Jon Hall that kept Universal solvent during the war years.
