Casting was not the only problem. The script was labored over by 16 writers, 13 of whom went uncredited including cast members Jack Haley and Bert Lahr, poet Ogden Nash, and screenwriter Herman J. Mankiewicz, who authored Citizen Kane (1941). The picture went through five directors (Norman Taurog, Mervyn LeRoy, George Cukor, Richard Thorpe and Victor Fleming), a ton of extras and they almost fried Margaret Hamilton in the effects created for the The Rocky Road to OZ Wicked Witch’s fiery exit. the time The Wizard of Oz premiered at Sid Grauman’s Chinese Theater on a summer night Yet despite the difficulties, and the initial lackluster box By in 1939, it had been staged successfully as a office,The Wizard of Oz was Oscar®-nominated for Best Broadway musical and three silent film versions had already Picture, Color Cinematography, Interior Decoration, and been released.

MGM also had under contract some of Hollywood's most talented directors, including Clarence Brown, George Cukor, Vincente Minnelli, and King Vidor, as well as outstanding cinematographers, production designers, costume designers, and editors. Exhibition highlights include Erich von Stroheim's Greed (1925), Victor Fleming's Gone Hith the Hind and The Wizard of Oz (both 1939), Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), and Ridley Scott's Thelma & Louise (1991).

  • 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.

  • Les Campagnes Électorales À Travers Le Cinéma Français Et Américain
    Couverture : Affiche du film The Phantom President, 1932 Exposition « Élections » – Du lundi 10 avril au mardi 9 mai 2017 à la BU Paris Nanterre Les campagnes électorales à travers le cinéma français et américain Filmographie sélective Bibliothèque Universitaire ADAV, Allociné, IMDB, Première.fr, sens-critique.com, Télérama Les synopsis sont extraits des sites – Paris Nanterre consultés le 20 janvier 2017. Le cinéma… Un miroir le long de la route ... « Le cinéma nous apparaît comme un reflet du temps présent. On pourrait dire de lui ce que Stendhal disait du roman : c'est un miroir qu'on promène le long de la route ; l'époque s'y révèle avec ses façons de penser et de vivre, ses grandeurs et ses faiblesses, ses tourments, ses espoirs et ses rêves, sa physionomie enfin. Certes il est difficile de connaître son propre temps : l'homme d'aujourd'hui ne sera connu que par l'homme de demain qui pourra, grâce au recul historique, dessiner les traits définitifs de son visage, le reconstruire tel qu'il aura été, tel qu'il se sera fait par l'histoire. Pourtant bien des films portent déjà témoignage et ou pourrait dire qu'ils parlent davantage à notre esprit qu'ils ne le feront pour une postérité qui ne verra peut-être plus les choses comme nous et qui devra tenter d'abord de se comprendre elle-même. Le cinéma est capable de nous donner immédiatement et plus que les autres arts une idée de ce que nous sommes, nous les hommes de ce temps. Bien des films témoignent en effet des inquiétudes actuelles, du malaise de la conscience contemporaine, des difficultés du monde qui se fait sous nos yeux, de la crise que traverse une humanité à la recherche de son équilibre.
