When, where and how their interaction and origin is begun? There should be no glamor and red carpet when The Lumière brothers short films like Workers leaving the Lumière factory, The Gardener, Baby’s Breakfast on the birth of cinema in 1895. However, we notice that artificially costumes are tailor-made for A Trip to the Moon in Georges Méliès and D. W. Griffith’s Intolerance. Suddenly, it adds the aesthetical and modernist elements into the blood of cinema beside the raw-realism of how the daily life of the common people is represented on the silver screen. Some kinds of bourgeois ideology and middle class value is enhanced. It is so unbelievable that some ordinary actress like Mary Pickford transforming into a movie star after beautifully dressing up. Not only the audience feel the power of movie magic but also the fashion magic. This paper explores the different perspective of movie and fashion in terms of fashion and film costumes, movie stars icon, fashion trends influenced by movies, and how fashion designers changes the look of cinema as well, etc. Keywords: ideology, movie images, stardom, fashionability Introduction Cinema is somehow like a showcase of fashion. General audiences are fans of movie stars not just because of their personal charisma, but because of the fashion they wear.

  • Stanley Donen, ‘Master of the Musical’ Who Directed ‘Singin’ in the Rain,’ Dies at 94
    LOG IN Stanley Donen, ‘Master of the Musical’ Who Directed ‘Singin’ in the Rain,’ Dies at 94 Stanley Donen in 1958. He directed some of Hollywood’s most beloved musicals, including “On the Town” (1949). Ronald Grant Archive, via Alamy By Richard Severo Feb. 23, 2019 Stanley Donen, who directed Fred Astaire dancing on the ceiling, Gene Kelly singing in the rain and a host of other sparkling moments from some of Hollywood’s greatest musicals, died on Thursday in Manhattan. He was 94. His son, Mark Donen, confirmed the death. Stanley Donen brought a certain charm and elegance to the silver screen in the late 1940s through the 1950s, at a time when Hollywood was soaked in glamour and the big studio movies were polished to a sheen. “For a time, Donen epitomized Hollywood style,” Tad Friend wrote in The New Yorker in 2003. Mr. Donen, he wrote, “made the world of champagne fountains and pillbox hats look enchanting, which is much harder than it sounds.” Mr. Donen worked with some of the most illustrious figures of his era: from Astaire and Kelly to Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn. He also worked with Leonard Bernstein, the lyricist Alan Jay Lerner and the writing team of Comden and Green, not to mention Frank Sinatra and Elizabeth Taylor. Mr. Donen’s filmography is studded with some of Hollywood’s most loved and admired musicals. “Royal Wedding” (1951), in which Astaire defied gravity, and “Singin’ in the Rain” (1952), in which Kelly defied the weather, were just two of his crowd-pleasers.

  • Presents Directed by Alice Waddington Running Time: 94 Min
    Presents Directed by Alice Waddington Running time: 94 min Genre: Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Thriller Press Contact: KWPR - Katrina Wan, [email protected] Samuel Goldwyn Films – Ryan Boring, [email protected] LOGLINE A young woman is sent to Paradise Hills to be reformed only to learn that behind the high-class facility’s beauty is a sinister secret. SYNOPSIS On an isolated island, Uma (Emma Roberts) wakes up to find herself at Paradise Hills, a facility where high-class families send their daughters to become perfect versions of themselves. The facility is run by the mysterious Duchess (Milla Jovovich) where calibrated treatments including etiquette classes, vocal lessons, beauty treatments, gymnastics and restricted diets, revolve all physical and emotional shortcomings within two months. The outspoken Uma finds solace and friendship in other Paradise Hills residents -- Chloe (Danielle McDonald), Yu (Awkwafina) and Mexican popstar Amarna (Eiza Gonzalez). Uma soon realizes that lurking behind all this beauty is a sinister secret. It's a race against the clock as Uma and her friends try to escape Paradise Hills before it consumes them all. DIRECTOR’S NOTES In 2015, I began working on the treatment and first concept art pieces for Paradise Hills as my own kind of personal exorcism. I imagined more of a narrative feature than my arthouse short Disco Inferno – a tale that was Gothic, yet futuristic, a diverse story about universal female fears (loneliness, social rejection, hyper-control) set in our own world, a few decades into the future. I wanted to give girls and women an entertaining fairy tale that acted like a poison apple, filled with all of the visual and narrative treats that had fascinated me as a teenager: High fantasy, ‘90s shôjo manga, science fiction and costume dramas.

  • Review of Charade
    City University of New York (CUNY) CUNY Academic Works Publications and Research CUNY Graduate Center 2010 Review of Charade Michael Adams City University of New York How does access to this work benefit ou?y Let us know! More information about this work at: https://academicworks.cuny.edu/gc_pubs/114 Discover additional works at: https://academicworks.cuny.edu This work is made publicly available by the City University of New York (CUNY). Contact: [email protected] Charade (Blu-ray) (Criterion, 9.21.2010) “Oh, it’s a Universal picture. I’ll bet it’s Charade. I’m Stanley Donen. I produced and directed this picture. I hope you forgive me.” “I’m Peter Stone. I wrote it, and you don’t have to forgive me. I’m pleased as punch.” Thus begins the commentary by the director and screenwriter of Charade, and Stone gets it right. Charade is a nearly perfect entertainment, arguably the best imitation Hitchcock, and one of the last true movie-star movies before the studio system bit the dust. I’ve seen it at least 25 times since its 1963 release and never grow tired of its considerable charms. Charade opens with the murder of Charles Lampert, soon followed by the discovery by his widow, Reggie (Audrey Hepburn), that she knew nothing about her husband. The mysterious Peter Joshua (Cary Grant), who goes by three additional names before the film ends, tries to help Reggie sort out a puzzle made more complicated by the presence of three thugs, Gideon (Ned Glass), Tex (James Coburn), and Herman (George Kennedy).

  • ​CORE WORDS: ​Laugh
    CORE WORDS: Laugh ​ ​ For Educators, Related Service Providers and Parents Wait Time: Last month we addressed Aided Language Stimulation, this month ​ we take a look at wait time. Providing adequate ‘wait time’ is an important consideration for communication partners while interacting and engaging with persons who use AAC systems. Sometimes the need to ‘wait’ may seem uncomfortable at first but over time, practice and when given focused attention, the amount of wait time needed for each individual will become more natural. As communication partners we can wait expectantly for AAC users to respond and engage. WAYS WE CAN USE THE WORD SHARE INFORMATION (e.g. I laughed so hard at my brother) COMMENT (e.g. I laughed) ​ ​ ASK QUESTIONS (e.g. Did you laugh at the joke?) ANSWER QUESTIONS (e.g. Yes, I laughed) EXPRESS A FEELING (e.g. I was so surprised, I couldn’t stop laughing) SHARE NEEDS (e.g. I need a laugh). ROUTINES AND SCHEDULES Morning Meeting: Adults can provide two choices of funny songs for students ​ and ask them to pick the one that makes them laugh more. ​ ​ 1 Shared reading: Students can pick a funny book to read and then the adult can ​ model the word, ‘laugh’ on the talker when they see a funny picture. PLAY Adults can model the word, laugh in natural environments and occurrences ​ ​ during play or during funny moments during the day. Adults can start making funny faces, and when the students laugh, the adult can model the word, ‘laugh’ on the talker. If watching a funny video during a break time, the adult can model the word, laugh on the AAC system.

  • Choreography Inspired by Coltrane
    Choreography Inspired by Coltrane By GIA KOURLAS Published: February 19, 2010 THE choreographer Lar Lubovitch is nothing if not aware of his own predilections. “I do this very old-fashioned thing,” he said, as the lines around his eyes crinkled affably over breakfast in Chelsea. “I design the music visually. And at my age and after all the years I’ve spent doing it, I’m not embarrassed to lay claim to it.” Andrea Mohin/The New York Times Mr. Lubovitch, below, will present an all-jazz program at the Joyce Theater. Mr. Lubovitch, 66, has always been drawn to music; during his teenage years in Chicago he managed to sneak into clubs like Birdhouse and the Sutherland Lounge with friends to listen to jazz. “Even though we were under age, we would somehow pass a $20 to the guy at the door and get smuggled in and stand at the back,” he said. “I’m embarrassed to admit we really didn’t know who we were hearing. We just snuck in and listened, and it was amazing.” In honor of his company’s two-week engagement at the Joyce Theater, beginning on Tuesday night, Mr. Lubovitch has returned to his roots with a premiere, “Coltrane’s Favorite Things,” the final dance in an all-jazz program that also includes “Elemental Brubeck” and “Nature Boy: Kurt Elling.” (Another program will feature a new male duet, “Dogs of War,” set to Prokofiev.) For the Coltrane piece Mr. Lubovitch found inspiration in a 1963 live recording from a Copenhagen performance of the saxophonist’s effervescent interpretation of Richard Rodgers’s “My Favorite Things.” “I’ve known the piece of music for a long time,” he said.
