  • 04 Cumberland 43-59
    Links & Letters 6, 1999 43-59 North American desire for the Spanish Other: Three film versions of Blasco Ibáñez's Blood and Sand Sharon Cumberland Seattle University, USA September 1998 Abstract: There are three film versions of Vicente Blasco Ibáñez's taurine novel Sangre y arena (1908). All are entitled Blood and Sand and feature male and female actors who epitomise the erotic possibilities of the North American fascination with Spanish stereotypes: Rudolph Valentino in 1922, Tyrone Power and Rita Hayworth in 1941, and Sharon Stone in 1989. By comparing the three film versions of Blood and Sand to Sangre y arena, it becomes clear that the North American appropriation of Spanish stereotypes displaces Blasco Ibáñez's theme of class conflict onto a safely diffused locus of erotic desire. Included are discussions of stereotypes in North American literary and film culture, Hollywood and North American audiences, and the españolada tradition compared to other North American genres. Key words: Blasco Ibáñez; Blood and Sand; Sangre y arena; Bullfighting; Culture Criti- cism; Españolada; Spanish Stereotypes. Although styles in popular culture come and go, North American audiences have never lost their desire for artistic representations of the exotic Spanish Other. «Desire» in this sense, is composed of both an erotic longing pro- jected into a safe, fantasy world, and a need for an exotic stereotype against which to read one's own identity. The romantic hero with flashing eyes and a taste for danger, whether manifested as a Conquistador, gypsy, or «Latin Lover», always seems to return to the popular imagination. For instance, as these lines are being written (summer, 1998) one of the top films showing in North America is The Mask of Zorro, starring Antonio Banderas, a Spanish actor who has developed a cross-over career in Hollywood by capitalising on the latent desire of North American audiences for a new embodiment of this familiar stereotype.

  • June Mathis's Valentino Scripts: Images of Male "Becoming" After the Great War
    June Mathis's Valentino Scripts: Images of Male "Becoming" After the Great War Thomas J. Slater Cinema Journal, 50, Number 1, Fall 2010, pp. 99-120 (Article) Published by University of Texas Press For additional information about this article http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/cj/summary/v050/50.1.slater.html Access Provided by University of California @ Santa Cruz at 03/30/11 4:04PM GMT June Mathis’s Valentino Scripts: Images of Male “Becoming” After the Great War by THOMAS J. SLATER Abstract: In the screenplays she wrote for Rudolph Valentino in 1921–1922, June Mathis redefi ned masculinity according to a socially useful, sexually open, anti- materialist, non- violent model, an achievement that deserves recognition because it expands our under- standing of how American culture, and especially women, responded to the Great War. aylyn Studlar defi nes the immediate post–World War I years as “an era marked by fears of national and masculine enfeeblement” in which “there was a veritable obsession with the attainment of masculinity.”1 Many writers G at the time suggested these fears were based on “a causal connection be- tween the standard of masculinity enforced by American capitalism and the sexual, erotic, emotional defi ciencies of American men.”2 Men therefore felt threatened when women turned “matinee idols” into cult hero objects of sexual desire, and none seemed more threatening than Rudolph Valentino. For his success, he was of- ten vilifi ed by male journalists because, as Miriam Hansen states, “Valentino called into question the very idea of a stable sexual identity.”3 During the early 1920s, writes Studlar, “Valentino had been culturally poised between a traditional order of masculinity and a utopian feminine ideal, between an enticing sensual excess ascribed to the Old World and the functional ideal of the New.”4 This transitional status was established not through mise- en- scène alone, 1 Gaylyn Studlar, This Mad Masquerade: Stardom and Masculinity in the Jazz Age (New York: Columbia University Press, 1996), 12, 13.

  • Cooperative Cinema Venture Launched by Brooklyn Academy and Museum
    /d> The Museum of Modern Art fok RLASE SEPTEMBER 28.1970 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modernart COOPERATIVE CINEMA VENTURE LAUNCHED BY BROOKLYN ACADEMY AND MUSEUM Cinema classics from the archives of The Museum of Modem Art will be shown weekly, starting October 7, at the Brooklyn Academy, Harvey Llchtensteln, Director of the Academy and John Hlghtower, Director of the Museum, announced today. The 112-year-old performing arts center at 30 Lafayette Avenue also plans to present The Museum of Modern Art's latest "What's Happening?" programs of documentaries using technical Innovations to cover social and news events In a significant manner. The "What's Happening?" series starts October 9, at 7:30 p.m. and will continue almost every Friday evening through the spring season. It will be open to the public. The classics program, available only to members of both institutions on con­ secutive Wednesdays at 2:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., will also run through May. The series opens with films of 1919 vintage. The early films of renown include Harold Lloyd's comedy "High and Dizzy;" "The Mark of Zorro," in which Douglas Fairbanks "soared" to stardom in swashbuckling roles; "Blood and Sand," starring the myth- hero of his time, Rudolph Valentino; and "Stella Dallas," with Ronald Colman, the most popular sentimental melodrama of the "silent" twenties. On the program are three D.W, Griffith films: "Broken Blossoms" and "Way Down East," both starring Lillian Glsh and Richard Barthelmess, and Griffith's epic work "Intolerance." The latter combines four stories and four historic periods—early Babylon, the Christian era, 16th century France, and the 20th century—and was intended as a modern-day parable.

  • Hodkinson, Hays and Hollywood [1921-1922]
    HODKINSON, HAYS AND HOLLYWOOD [1921-1922] Compiled by: Charles Stepczyk, Paramount Archives Before the Fatty Arbuckle scandal broke and spilled down into Hollywood in Sept of 1921, William Desmond Taylor, President of the Motion Picture Directors' Association, introduced William Wadsworth Hodkinson at a meeting of the organization earlier in the year in February. Hodkinson, one of the founders of Paramount, ran the W. W. Hodkinson Corp, which over its run distributed more than 130 independently-made films between the years 1918 and 1924, [some of which were also distributed by Pathe, including at least a few in 1922]. Amongst the exhibitor topics of the day, Hodkinson spoke a bit about the "rising wave" relative to "sex movies, reformers, blue laws, and censorship". Hodkinson preached to some degree a form of self regulation amongst his peers: "I believe that you gentlemen, if you grasp the significance of this, if you realize the parts that you are playing in making these elements up and serving them out to millions of the public--shaping their minds and their thoughts--if you take yourselves seriously to that extent and realize that your influence is more potent than that of the school teacher or the educator in any other branch, and fight that in your individual way. Fight for certain standards of cleanliness and decency in this business 1 that you want preserved in your home and in society generally, the standards that you would want followed in the theaters if your children were going to the theaters.” The next year in January of 1922, Will Harrison Hays Sr.

  • P-74 Film Frame Collection
    P-74 Film Frame Collection Repository: Seaver Center for Western History Research, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County Span Dates: 1889 – 1947, undated (bulk 1900 – 1933, undated) Extent: 5.8 linear feet Language: English Abstract: Specimens of motion picture film compiled and catalogued by Earl Theisen (1903-1973). A portion of the collection is derived from other motion picture history donations to the museum, but most of the items were collected by the donor. Biographical Note: Theisen (1903-1973) was the Honorary Curator of Motion Picture and Theatrical Arts at the then-called Los Angeles Museum for several years following 1931. He had a primary role at the museum in developing the Motion Picture Gallery. Much of the film collections in the museum’s History Department were acquired as a result of his efforts. He was a technician at the Dunning Process Plant, a member of the Society of Motion Picture Engineers, and a member of the Society’s Historical Committee. He wrote articles for the publication “The International Photographer” from about 1932 to 1936 and also served as its Associate Editor. In articles he discussed the history of motion pictures; film production and the film industry, including the art of animation; in a semi- regular column he covered news about the Hollywood industry. One of the articles from the May, 1934 issue noted that he was a “member of the Faculty as Lecturer in the Department of Cinematography, University of Southern California.” While serving as curator at the museum, Theisen became active as the Executive Secretary of the Motion Picture Hall of Fame at the California-Pacific International Exposition (1935-1936) at San Diego, California.

  • Dorothy Arzner
    Dorothy Arzner Lived: January 3, 1897 - October 1, 1979 Worked as: director, editor, film cutter, screenwriter Worked In: United States by Allyson Nadia Field With a film career spanning from 1919 to 1943, fifteen years of which were spent as a director, Dorothy Arzner remains the most prolific woman studio director in the history of American cinema. She has received significant scholarly attention from feminist film critics and queer theorists who have been interested in this pioneer filmmaker both for her body of work and for the critical possibilities suggested by feminist approaches to reading that work as a whole. Arzner grew up in Hollywood, California, where her father owned a restaurant next to a theatre that was popular with actors. Her work in the film industry began when she started typing scripts for the Famous Players-Lasky Corporation, which would later become Paramount. After six months, she became a cutter and editor at Realart Studio, a subsidiary of Paramount. As chief editor, she cut and edited fifty-two films before being recalled to Paramount to cut and edit the Valentino vehicle Blood and Sand (1922), her first “big picture” and the first film for which she had undertaken some of the filming (Peary and Kay, 21). At Paramount, Arzner worked on several pictures with director James Cruze, often mentioned as her mentor, then left to write scripts for independent companies, among them Dorothy Davenport Reid Productions, for which she adapted an Adela Rogers St. Johns story on a scandalous trial as the important The Red Kimona (1925). Returning to work at Paramount, Arzner wrote the shooting script for Old Ironsides (1926), which she also cut and edited.
