    A N I L L U M I N E D I L L U S I O N S E S S A Y B Y I A N C . B L O O M TTHHEE LLAADDYY FFRROOMM SSHHAANNGGHHAAII Directed by Orson Welles Produced by Orson Welles Distributed by Columbia Pictures Released in 1948 ured by the attractive wife (Rita Hayworth) of a crooked crippled lawyer (Everett Sloane) to L serve on board their yacht after he had saved her from an assault, Michael O'Hara finds himself caught in a high-stakes game of fools. And he is the key player. Fighting his desires every step of the way, Michael (Orson Welles) is maneuvered into accepting a position for the long journey to San Francisco. By all evidence their initial meeting was by chance, Michael loping along, Elsa sitting pretty in her horse-drawn carriage. The assault by the three dopey mugs could have been staged to further draw Michael in. But this is pure speculation (and would take some very quick thinking on her part). Soon we learn that Michael is a sailor, a veteran of the anti-Franco Communist forces, and he killed a man in Spain, back in '39. Her past is more obscure, but we can ascertain that Elsa was a high-class prostitute in China, where she was born to White Russian parents. They get along well, she coy, he feeling heroic, but then she lets on that she is married. This freezes Michael. He doesn't want trouble, and though he admits in voice-over that he is terrible at smelling danger, he can see it.

  • JEANNE MOREAU: NOUVELLE VAGUE and BEYOND February 25 - March 18, 1994
    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release February 1994 JEANNE MOREAU: NOUVELLE VAGUE AND BEYOND February 25 - March 18, 1994 A film retrospective of the legendary French actress Jeanne Moreau, spanning her remarkable forty-five year career, opens at The Museum of Modern Art on February 25, 1994. JEANNE MOREAU: NOUVELLE VAGUE AND BEYOND traces the actress's steady rise from the French cinema of the 1950s and international renown as muse and icon of the New Wave movement to the present. On view through March 18, the exhibition shows Moreau to be one of the few performing artists who both epitomize and transcend their eras by the originality of their work. The retrospective comprises thirty films, including three that Moreau directed. Two films in the series are United States premieres: The Old Woman Mho Wades in the Sea (1991, Laurent Heynemann), and her most recent film, A Foreign Field (1993, Charles Sturridge), in which Moreau stars with Lauren Bacall and Alec Guinness. Other highlights include The Queen Margot (1953, Jean Dreville), which has not been shown in the United States since its original release; the uncut version of Eva (1962, Joseph Losey); the rarely seen Mata Hari, Agent H 21 (1964, Jean-Louis Richard), and Joanna Francesa (1973, Carlos Diegues). Alternately playful, seductive, or somber, Moreau brought something truly modern to the screen -- a compelling but ultimately elusive persona. After perfecting her craft as a principal member of the Comedie Frangaise and the Theatre National Populaire, she appeared in such films as Louis Malle's Elevator to the Gallows (1957) and The Lovers (1958), the latter of which she created a scandal with her portrayal of an adultress.

They think he's lost on some horizon. Kate Bush, ‘The Man with the Child in his Eyes’, 1978 In this article, I will examine romantic representations of the subject in Jacques-Henri Bernardin de Saint-Pierre’s novel Paul et Virginie (1788) and in Karen Blixen’s short story ‘The Immortal Story’(1958). Literary intertexts from the period of romanticism and after – Maria Edgeworth’s Belinda (1801), Charlotte Brontë’s Villette (1853), and William Hurrell Mallock’s The New Paul and Virginia (1878), and a much later novel Perillisen ominaisuudet (1963) by the Finnish author Pentti Holappa – will also be discussed. The starting point for my discussion of the intertextual recurrence of literary characters is Bernardin de Saint-Pierre’s highly successful novel Paul et Virginie.1 In the course of the nineteenth century, Paul and Virginie, the eponymous main couple of Bernardin’s novel, became a synonym for the romantic success stories avidly consumed by the reading public.
