Dabney, Melina Kristine (BA/MA Film Studies) Re-mixing Old Character Tropes on Screen: Kerry Washington, Viola Davis, and the New Femininity Thesis directed by Professor Melinda Barlow While there is a substantial amount of scholarship on the depiction of African American women in film and television, this thesis exposes the new formations of African American femininity on screen. African American women have consistently resisted, challenged, submitted to, and remixed racial myths and sexual stereotypes existing in American cinema and television programming. Mainstream film and television practices significantly contribute to the reinforcement of old stereotypes in contemporary black women characters. However, based on the efforts of African American producers like Shonda Rhimes, who has attempted to insert more realistic renderings of African American women in her recent television shows, black women’s representation is undergoing yet another shift in contemporary media.

  • Love the Movie Read the Book
    Love the movie? Read the book. (May contain spoilers)! ! When I first watched the Hunger Games in the theaters, I was surprised at how they portrayed Katniss in the movie. In the books, Katniss was way whinier, way more boy obsessed and far less brave. In fact, she made impulsive and rash decisions out of fear and was an unwilling martyr for her people. However, while munching on popcorn in the theaters, I observed Jennifer Lawrence’s portrayal of Katniss is seen to be much more akin to being the modern day Joan of Arc than her whiny teen image in the books.! This is why I always say, if you love the movie, go read the book. The book came first for a reason. It was successful first for a reason. Who knows how movies have butchered or altered the true thesis of the stories we so love?! ! There are so many reasons a book can be a delicious alternative to the film. More depth, more internal dialogue and greater understanding of the protagonist and his or her conflict.! ! Here’s a list of books that are almost a necessity to read if you loved the movie:! ! 1. Gone Girl GIF of throat slitting scene in Gone Girl So when I think of Gone Girl, the film, I picture the scene where Rosamund Pike pikes it to Neil Patrick Harris by gruesomely slitting his throat in an ultimate that girl cray move. Barney really got legend... wait for it... bloodied, legend-bloodied good, didn’t he? Most lay audiences see Gone Girl as the classic stalker woman gone mad scenario.

  • Alan Bennett's Prize-Winning Comedy Talking Heads Will Receive Its
    by BWW News Desk October 18, 2014 Alan Bennett's prize-winning comedy Talking Heads will receive its central Ohio premiere when APT launches its third professional touring production with three public performances beginning on November 13-21. Talking Heads will be performed at the BalletMet Performance Space in downtown Columbus on November 13, at the First Unitarian Universalist Church in Clintonville on November 20 and at the Abbey Theater of Dublin on November 21st. All performances are at 8 pm. Linda Dorff plays "Violet," who at nearly one hundred years of age has lost some of her memory but none of her wicked sense of humor. Kerry Shanklin is "Irene," a lonely woman who writes one-too-many poison-pen letters. Anne Diehl is "Miss Fozzard," a prim, middle-aged department store saleswoman whose sore feet lead her into a rather unusual romance. All three are members of Actors Equity Association, the union of professional actors. Originally produced on the BBC in 1988 and 1998, Talking Heads is a series of twelve prize-winning dramatic monologues focusing on seemingly unremarkable people (mostly women) whose lives are nonetheless filled with tragedy, melodrama and especially comedy. Acclaimed by critics - and now included in the advanced high school curriculum in Britain - these mini-plays have become what one critic called "a British cult classic." Talking Heads was produced in the West End (the British equivalent of Broadway) in 1992 and 1998, and has been produced on professional stages all over the English-speaking world. An award-winning Off-Broadway production in 2003 ran for two hundred performances and several of the pieces have been seen on PBS's Masterpiece Theatre.

  • Tasha Smith Bio
    TASHA SMITH BIO Tasha Smith is a multifaceted actress whose work brings style and intensity to the subjects she plays on the big and small screens. She currently stars in the Tyler Perry television series, “FOR BETTER OR WORSE,” on OWN for which she earned an NAACP Image Award nomination as “Outstanding Actress in a Comedy Series.” Smith‟s memorable portrayal of „Angela,‟ in Perry‟s box office hits, “WHY DID I GET MARRIED?” and its sequel, “WHY DID I GET MARRIED, TOO?”, alongside Janet Jackson and Jill Scott, sparked the creation of the spin-off series which is focused around her relationship with onscreen husband, „Marcus,‟ played by Michael Jai White. She will next be seen on the silver screen in Lionsgate‟s upcoming feature, “ADDICTED,” with Sharon Leal and Boris Kodjoe. The film, adapted from the popular erotic fiction novel which follows trials and tribulations of a successful sex-addicted African-American businesswoman, is slated for an October 10, 2014 theatrical release. Additionally, Smith was just tapped for Fox‟s Lee Daniels hip-hop drama pilot, “EMPIRE,” in a recurring role opposite Taraji P. Henson. Smith‟s other film credits include Tyler Perry‟s “DADDY’S LITTLE GIRLS” (Lionsgate), as “Jennifer” opposite Idris Elba and Gabrielle Union. Her performance still resonates with audiences and critics alike. Smith went on to co-star in the #1 box office film, “JUMPING THE BROOM” (Columbia), starring Paula Patton, Laz Alonso and Angela Bassett. She also appeared in the romantic comedy, “COUPLES RETREAT” (Universal), starring opposite Vince Vaughn, Jon Favreau, Jason Bateman and Faizon Love, adding to her already impressive box office resume which includes; “ATL” (Warner Bros.) with T.I.
