When did the rascals of “The Front Page” turn into the scoundrels of “Absence of Malice”? Why did reporters stop being heroes played by Clark Gable, Bette Davis and Cary Grant and become bit actors playing rogues dogging at the heels of Bruce Willis and Goldie Hawn? It all happened in the dark as people watched movies and sat at home listening to radio and watching television. “The Image of the Journalist in Popular Culture” explores the continuing, evolving relationship between the American people and their media. It investigates the conflicting images of reporters in movies and television and demonstrates, decade by decade, their impact on the American public’s perception of newsgatherers in the 20th century. The class shows how it happened first on the big screen, then on the small screens in homes across the country. The class investigates the image of the cinematic newsgatherer from silent films to the 1990s, from Hildy Johnson of “The Front Page” and Charles Foster Kane of “Citizen Kane” to Jane Craig in “Broadcast News.” The reporter as the perfect movie hero.

  • Censorship: an Historical Interpretation
    FALL 1991 167 Censorship: An Historical Interpretation Gregory D. Black In Giuseppe Tornatore's Cinema Paradiso, a nostalgic look at growing up in a small Sicilian village, the local movie theater dominates the social life of the town. Everyone, it seems, went to the movies because they brought information, entertainment, excitement, and romance to the village. But at least one person feared the power and influence of this modern entertainment. The local priest insisted on censoring the films before they contaminated his flock with the infectious immorality of the outside world. As one villager complained: "I haven't seen a kiss in twenty years!" The experience of those who attended the Cinema Paradiso, while extreme, was shared by movie fans the world over. Convinced that films were capable of seductively changing the moral, ethical, and political values of the audience, censors and moral guardians from Sicily to Hollywood fought to prevent films from achieving the artistic freedom the other art forms enjoyed. Nowhere was this more true than in America. While the Italian priest tried to protect his flock from "immorality," films were also censored for political content. An analysis of films made in Hollywood from 1930 to the 1960s would show that only a handful dealt with such issues as depression, unemployment, changing moral standards, social reform, racism, fascism, communism and war with the level of realism and honesty they deserved. Hollywood was seemingly ruled by the old adage, attributed to Samuel Goldwyn, "if you have a message, send it by Western Union." Marked by fluff, rather than substance, Hollywood filmmakers were committed to "harmless entertainment." But why was the industry so afraid of making films other than the westerns, cops and robbers, mindless comedies, action thrillers and musicals that dominated studio production? One answer is obvious.

  • The Irish-American Gangster in Film
    Farrell 1 THE IRISH-AMERICAN GANGSTER IN FILM By Professor Steven G. Farrell 1 Farrell 2 When The Godfather was released in the early seventies, it effectively created a myth of the virtually unbeatable Italian crime family for the American public that endured for the remainder of the century. This film also effectively eliminated all other white ethnic organized gangs from the silver screen, as well as from the public’s eye. Hollywood, as we shall see, had their history wrong in this case. The Italian Mafia was never as invincible as Hollywood depicted it on film, nor did they always have everything their own way when it came to illegal activities. It wasn’t until the close of the last century that the film industry began to expose the old-time hoods as being fallible and besieged on all sides from new criminal elements connected with newly arrived immigrant groups. The Cubans, Russians and the Colombian hoods, along with the longer established African and Mexican American gangs, had begun to nibble away at the turf long controlled by the almighty Italian mob. As the paradigm of the urban underworld began to shift to reflect the new realities of the global economy, another look at the past by historians and Hollywood is revealing that the Italian gang never had absolute power as it was once commonly believed. The Irish hoodlums, to single out the subject of this paper, were actually engaged in gangland activities years before the arrival of the Italians and the Irish also competed with the Italians up until recently.

This controversial cycle, which was initiated by the success of films like Boyz N the Hood and Menace II Society, participated in the period’s broad cultural debates about race, class, crime and youth. As film cycles are strongly shaped by audience desire, financial viability, current events and studio whims, I argue that they retain the marks of their historical, socioeconomic and generic contexts more precisely than genres, which, because of their longevity and heterogeneity, can be unwieldy objects of study.

Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2015 https://archive.org/details/pictureshowannua00amal_14 im&m Robert Young and Helen Gilbert in “ Florian. On the Cover : Bette Davis and Errol Flynn in “ The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex." r think most cinemagoers favour the idea of the revival of favourite films, for to those who saw the originals there are the memories of the past and also comparisons between the old produc- tions and the new, particularly in respect to those that have been made both as a silent and a talkie. To the newer generation of the cinema public there is interest in comparing the old-time screen stones with the modem ones. “ ” To be technically correct, revival is not the right word, for the old favourites are re-made, but in the majority of cases the original film is not altered to any great extent so far as the story is concerned, though the introduction of spoken dialogue must necessarily be more expensive them that recorded by the printed sub-title of the silent picture. On the whole, the re-making of popular pictures is done so well that it is deserving of the highest praise, but there is one criticism I have to make. I think it is a great mistake to alter the original title. Take a person who saw the original film passing by a cinema which is showing a revival under a new title. There is nothing to indicate that this is a new version of an old favourite, and such a person might well walk on to another cinema, missing what would have been a real treat.

This belief' was based mostly on recent crime statistics, such as the claim that "Between 1985 and 1992, the rate at which males ages 14 to 17 committed murder increased by about 50 percent for whites and over 300 percent for blacks.'" Also, "Between 1985 and 1991 the number of juveniles in custody increased from 49,000 to nearly 58,000.,,2 From crime statistics like these, scholars generally concluded that juvenile crime was getting worse, and that it would eventually get much, much worse - "some analysts argued that what had typically only been only a threat to lower-class, inner-city dwellers, might become a reality for the rest of society.,,3 Scholars pointed to the increase in the number of juveniles, a product of the baby- boom generation, as a reason for the increase in juvenile crime.
