Why Call Them "Cult Movies"? American Independent Filmmaking and the Counterculture in the 1960S Mark Shiel, University of Leicester, UK
Why Call them "Cult Movies"? American Independent Filmmaking and the Counterculture in the 1960s Mark Shiel, University of Leicester, UK Preface In response to the recent increased prominence of studies of "cult movies" in academic circles, this essay aims to question the critical usefulness of that term, indeed the very notion of "cult" as a way of talking about cultural practice in general. My intention is to inject a note of caution into that current discourse in Film Studies which valorizes and celebrates "cult movies" in particular, and "cult" in general, by arguing that "cult" is a negative symptom of, rather than a positive response to, the social, cultural, and cinematic conditions in which we live today. The essay consists of two parts: firstly, a general critique of recent "cult movies" criticism; and, secondly, a specific critique of the term "cult movies" as it is sometimes applied to 1960s American independent biker movies -- particularly films by Roger Corman such as The Wild Angels (1966) and The Trip (1967), by Richard Rush such as Hell's Angels on Wheels (1967), The Savage Seven, and Psych-Out (both 1968), and, most famously, Easy Rider (1969) directed by Dennis Hopper. Of course, no-one would want to suggest that it is not acceptable to be a "fan" of movies which have attracted the label "cult". But this essay begins from a position which assumes that the business of Film Studies should be to view films of all types as profoundly and positively "political", in the sense in which Fredric Jameson uses that adjective in his argument that all culture and every cultural object is most fruitfully and meaningfully understood as an articulation of the "political unconscious" of the social and historical context in which it originates, an understanding achieved through "the unmasking of cultural artifacts as socially symbolic acts" (Jameson, 1989: 20).

Dennis Hopper
GALERIE THADDAEUS ROPAC DENNIS HOPPER ICONS OF THE SIXTIES PARIS PANTIN 21 Oct 2015 - 27 Feb 2016 OPENING: WEDNESDAY, 21 OCTOBER 2015, 7PM-9PM Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac Paris Pantin is delighted to present Dennis Hopper’s exhibition Icons of the Sixties, a selection of photographs and personal objects alongside an emblematic sculpture as well as an installation composed of two canvases and an experimental film. The multitalented actor, director, photographer and painter Dennis Hopper (1936 – 2010) was known as an icon of the New Hollywood and of the artistic underground in California. In his early age he started as an actor alongside James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause (1955), working within the traditional Hollywood studio system, yet he felt driven to other artistic fields. Dean advised him to pick up a photo camera to investigate new creative territories. At this time Hopper painted a lot, “influenced by abstract expressionism and jazz” as he said, but after a fire devastated his house in Bel Air in 1961 and destroyed almost all his paintings, he stopped painting and turned more and more to photography. In the following years he always walked around with a camera, as a chronicler of his time, eager to capture the cultural and social seism that hit the American way of life specifically on the West coast – with its revolutionary wave of beat, pop and art. At the centre of the exhibition in Paris Pantin we present a selection of hand-signed vintage photographic prints by Dennis Hopper where he experimented with an irregular black frame produced by the photo-emulsion.

Photographs by Dennis Hopper
G A G O S I A N G A L L E R Y 9 September 2014 PRESS RELEASE GAGOSIAN GALLERY VIA FRANCESCO CRISPI 16 T. +39.06.4208.6498 00187 ROME F. +39.06.4201.4765 GALLERY HOURS: Tue–Sat: 10:30am–7:00pm and by appointment SCRATCHING THE SURFACE: Photographs by Dennis Hopper Tuesday, 23 September–Saturday, 8 November 2014 Opening reception: Tuesday, September 23rd, from 6:00 to 8:00pm This is a story of a man/child who chose to develop his five senses and live and experience rather than just read. —Dennis Hopper Gagosian Rome is pleased to announce an exhibition of the late Dennis Hopper’s photographs of the 1960s, together with the Drugstore Camera series of the early 1970s and continuous screenings of his films and interviews. This will be the first major exhibition of Hopper's work in Rome. Hopper established his reputation as a cult actor and director with Easy Rider (1969), and maintained this status with gritty performances in The American Friend (1977), Apocalypse Now (1979), Blue Velvet (1986), Hoosiers (1986), and as director of Colors (1988). During his rise to Hollywood stardom, he captured the establishment-busting spirit of the 1960s in photographs that travel from Los Angeles to Harlem to Tijuana, Mexico, and which portray iconic figures including Jane Fonda, Andy Warhol, and John Wayne. Spontaneous portraits of now-legendary artists, actors, and musicians are among a selection of nearly one hundred signed vintage prints. Claes Oldenburg appears at a wedding, standing among plaster cake slices that he created as party favors, plated and placed in uniform rows on the ground.

American International Pictures Retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art
The Museum of Modern Art 50th Anniversary •JO NO. 47 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL PICTURES RETROSPECTIVE AT THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART The Department of Film of The Museum of Modern Art will present a retrospective exhibition of films from American International Pictures beginning July 26 and running through August 28, 1979. The 38 film retrospective, which coincides with the studio's 25th anniversary, was selected from the company's total production of more than 500 films, by Adrienne Mancia, Curator, and Larry Kardish, Associate Curator, of the Museum's Department of Film. The films, many in new 35mm prints, will be screened in the Museum's Roy and Niuta Titus Auditorium and, concurrent with the retro spective, a special installation of related film stills and posters will be on view in the adjacent Auditorium Gallery. "It's extraordinary to see how many filmmakers, writers and actors — now often referred to as 'the New Hollywood'—took their first creative steps at American International," commented Adrienne Mancia. "AIP was a good training ground; you had to work quickly and economically. Low budgets can force you to find fresh resources. There is a vitality and energy to these feisty films that capture a certain very American quality. I think these films are rich in information about our popular culture and we are delighted to have an opportunity to screen them."

Wright 1 OFF THE ROAD Imperialism And Exploration In The American Road Movie “Road movies are too cool to address serious socio-political issues. Instead, they express the fury and suffering at the extremities of a civilized life, and give their restless protagonists the false hope of a one-way ticket to nowhere.” –Michael Atkinson, quoted in “The Road Movie Book” (1). “‘Imperialism’ means the practice, the theory, and the attitudes of a dominating metropolitan center ruling a distant territory; ‘colonialism’, which is almost always a consequence of imperialism, is the implanting of settlements on distant territory” –Edward Said, Culture and Imperialism (9) “I am still a little bit scared of flying, but I am definitely far more scared of all the disgusting trash in between places” -Cy Amundson, This Is Not Happening “This is gonna be exactly like Eurotrip, except it’s not gonna suck” -Kumar Patel, Harold and Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay Wright 2 Off The Road Abstract: This essay explores the imperialist nature of the American road movie as it is defined by the film’s era of release, specifically through the lens of how road movies abuse the lands that are travelled through.

And the Ship Sails On
And The Ship Sails On by Serge Toubiana at the occasion of the end of his term as Director-General of the Cinémathèque française. Within just a few days, I shall come to the end of my term as Director-General of the Cinémathèque française. As of February 1st, 2016, Frédéric Bonnaud will take up the reins and assume full responsibility for this great institution. We shall have spent a great deal of time in each other's company over the past month, with a view to inducting Frédéric into the way the place works. He has been able to learn the range of our activities, meet the teams and discover all our on-going projects. This friendly transition from one director-general to the next is designed to allow Frédéric to function at full-steam from day one. The handover will have been, both in reality and in the perception, a peaceful moment in the life of the Cinémathèque, perhaps the first easy handover in its long and sometimes turbulent history. That's the way we want it - we being Costa-Gavras, chairman of our board, and the regulatory authority, represented by Fleur Pellerin, Minister of Culture and Communication, and Frédérique Bredin, Chairperson of the CNC, France's National Centre for Cinema and Animation. The peaceful nature of this handover offers further proof that the Cinémathèque has entered into a period of maturity and is now sufficiently grounded and self-confident to start out on the next chapter without trepidation. But let me step back in time. Since moving into the Frank Gehry building at 51 rue de Bercy, at the behest of the Ministry of Culture, the Cinémathèque française has undergone a profound transformation.

This thesis is a rhetorical analysis of Easy Rider exploring how auteurs Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper and Terry Southern's use of road, regional and cowboy mythology creates a text that simultaneously exposes and is dominated by the ironies inherent in American culture while breathing new life into the cowboy myth and reaffirming his place as one of America's most enduring cultural icons.

John Lurie and the Lounge Lizards
John Lurie and The Lounge Lizards John Lurie the sax player, the actor, the painter and the fisherman. Though this might sound like a schizophrenic portrait it's simply the truth. All these different personalities suit in the same physical body. Born in Worcester, Massachusetts on December 14 1952, he's mostly known as the founder of The Lounge Lizards, a modern jazz ensemble featuring a bunch of hipsters of the New York Downtown scene. Along with his brother Evan on piano there were Arto Lindsay (guitar), Anton Fier (drums) and Steve Piccolo (bass). This is the band playing inside “The Lounge Lizards” (EEG, 1981), their first official album, although the band was already active at the end of the seventies. The ensemble underwent a few changes over the years: Arto Lindsay was later replaced by Marc Ribot on guitar and more elements were added until the band expanded into an octet, sometimes even a nonet, maintaining John Lurie in New York, 1982 however their typical unsettling, ironic, often sharp, sound. The Lounge Lizards perfectly embodied the Downtown noir-like atmosphere surrounding the artists in New York at the beginning of the eighties. “No pain for cakes” (Island, 1987), “Voice of Chunk” (Strange & Beautiful Music, 1990), “Queen of all ears” (Strange & Beautiful Music, 1998) plus a bunch of live recordings followed their self-titled debut release and are the overall output of the band. Not too much of an output considering when the band was formed, but John used the stage to refine, rearrange and shape the tunes over and over.

Nobody Had Ever Seen Themselves Portrayed in a Movie
1 “Nobody had ever seen themselves portrayed in a movie. At every love-in across the country people were smoking grass and dropping LSD, while audiences were still watching Doris Day and Rock Hudson!” -Dennis Hopper1 “So the doobs and the Heinie kicked right in and I fell into the photograph and thought, that’s it! I know what to do for my next sex, motorcycle and drugs movie!” -Peter Fonda2 Three major events in the summer of 1969 changed America; the Woodstock music festival, the Manson family murders, and Easy Rider. Woodstock captured the feeling of free love, drugs and music the youth culture espoused at the time. The Manson murders were a stark reminder of the dangerous level societal tensions had reached, and what could happen when they boil over. Easy Rider is the generation's expression of these two disparate realities colliding. The movie creates a dichotomy of freedom and violence and rides the jagged line between them. As Pauline Kael put it, the viewer of “Easy Rider may still be caught by something edgy and ominous in it – the acceptance of the constant danger of sudden violence.”3 Motorcycle movies had become popular and ‘cool’ in the mid 1950s with The Wild One and remained so for a few years before petering out. The genre had resurfaced in 1966 with The Wild Angels, also starring Peter Fonda and Hells Angels on Wheels, starring Jack Nicholson. Fonda and Dennis Hopper were in the party scene of young Hollywood and were growing tired of the formulaic ‘motorcycle pictures’ that were being rehashed.
