Fore- most among these women is the figure of Alice Guy Blaché—also known simply as Alice Guy, before she married Herbert Blaché in 1907—who was responsible for numerous “firsts” in cinema history: the first film with narrative La Fée aux Choux (The Cabbage Patch Fairy; 1896), as well as early experiments with color dye processes, synchronized sound recording, multi-reel films, and other cinematic advances. Gaumont put out a set of her French films for that com- pany—she was the head of production for Gaumont between 1896 and 1907—in a superb DVD in 2009 entitled Gaumont Treasures Vol- ume 1 (1897–1913), but this compilation necessarily did not deal with her subsequent work in America, where she founded her own produc- tion company, Solax, and set about making a series of energetic films in every possible genre.

  • Film Essay for "Shoes"
    Shoes By Shelley Stamp A profile of director Lois Weber published shortly after the release of “Shoes” celebrated her ability to probe “complex questions which are challenging in- telligent thinkers the world over” in a “dignified and dramatic manner.”1 Working at Universal in the mid- 1910s, where she enjoyed enormous respect and substantial creative control, Weber wrote and di- rected ambitious features on highly topical and deeply contentious issues of the day, including drug addiction, capital punishment, and the fight to legal- ize contraception. She considered cinema a modern “voiceless language” capable of engaging popular audiences in critical cultural debates, much as a newspaper editorial or a religious sermon might do. In “Shoes” Weber tackled one of the early twentieth century’s most pronounced social phenomena – the influx of young, single women into the wage labor force where they were often exploited and under- paid. Eva Meyer (Mary MacLaren), the film’s central character, supports her entire family with the meager salary she earns working in a five-and-dime store. They are destitute as a result, often unable to buy basic necessities. In one of the film’s most harrowing scenes, Eva lies awake at night haunted by the This advertisement appeared in the June 24, 1916 edition specter of poverty that grips her family.

  • From Lois Weber to Kathryn Bigelow, and the “Chick- Flick” Reputation
    Where are All the Women? From Lois Weber to Kathryn Bigelow, and the “Chick- Flick” Reputation Cathy Kostova, 9 March 2015 I. Intro Manohla Dargis argues[1] that Kathryn Bigelow’s two-fisted win at the Academy Awards, in 2009, for best director and best film, for “The Hurt Locker”, has helped dismantle stereotypes about what types of films women can and should direct. As much as I agree with her that this was a historic and exhilarating moment for women filmmakers all around the world, I find the fact that the Oscar was granted to a movie with no female point of view whatsoever and to a director who tries her best not to be identified as female when it comes to her job, proves that films with strong female characters, and women directors who create such characters, remain very rarely recognized. 1. The Academy Statistics There have been only 4 women nominated for best director, out of the 424 nominations in the history of the Oscars: 1976: Lina Wertmüller for “Seven Beauties” (1975), 1993: Jane Campion for “The Piano” (1993), 2003: Sofia Coppola for “Lost in Translation” (2003), and 2009: Kathryn Bigelow for “The Hurt Locker” (2008) A 2012 survey conducted by the Los Angeles Times found that overall, academy members are 94 percent white and 77 percent male, and that their median age is 62. Cathy Kostova 1 WHERE ARE ALL THE WOMEN? From Lois Weber To Kathryn Bigelow, and the “Chick-Flick” Reputation, 9 March 2015 Women make up 19 percent of the academy’s screenwriting branch and 18 percent of its producers branch, but only 9 percent of its directors branch.

Hollywood nasceu oficialmente em 1913 com The Sqaw, de Cecil B. DeMille, que dois anos depois realizaria um filme que teria enorme impacto sobre os intelectuais e cineastas franceses (que tinham influência além das fronteiras do país), muito superior ao que tivera nos Estados Unidos, The Cheat.

  • Son of Universal: More Rediscovered Gems from the Laemmle Years May 5–16, 2017 the Roy and Niuta Titus Theaters Screening Schedule
    Son of Universal: More Rediscovered Gems from the Laemmle Years May 5–16, 2017 The Roy and Niuta Titus Theaters Screening Schedule Young Desire. 1930. USA. Directed by Lewis D. Collins. Screenplay by Winifred Reeve, from a play by William R. Doyle. With Mary Nolan, William Janney, Mae Busch. Another of Hollywood’s tragic blondes, Mary Nolan was a Ziegfeld Girl who fled to Germany in the wake of a scandal, where she changed her name to “Imogene Robertson” and appeared in 17 films before returning to the US and landing a 1928 contract with Universal. Though addicted to drugs and difficult to work with, Nolan was a memorably haunted presence in a handful of films, including this early sound melodrama in which she stars as a carnival hoochie-coochie dancer who dreams of quitting the trade and marrying a rich young man. The film’s startling conclusion anticipates Nolan’s own unhappy fate. 35mm. 68 min. Friday, May 5, 5:00 p.m., T2 Sunday, May 14, 4:30 p.m., T2 Outside the Law. 1930. USA. Directed by Tod Browning. Screenplay by Browning, Garret Fort. With Edward G. Robinson, Mary Nolan, Owen Moore. Tod Browning returned to Universal to direct this early sound remake of his 1920 Lon Chaney vehicle, this time with Edward G. Robinson in a pre–Little Caesar role as a cigar-chomping gangster who tries to muscle in on a bank robbery planned by an up- and-coming crook (Owen Moore) and his affectless moll (Mary Nolan, top-billed). Browning’s lowlife predilections come into rich conflict with middle-class propriety when Moore and Nolan go into hiding, disguised as a pair of young newlyweds.
