  • Cole Porter: the Social Significance of Selected Love Lyrics of the 1930S
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Unisa Institutional Repository Cole Porter: the social significance of selected love lyrics of the 1930s by MARILYN JUNE HOLLOWAY submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the subject of ENGLISH at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA SUPERVISOR: PROFESSOR IA RABINOWITZ November 2010 DECLARATION i SUMMARY This dissertation examines selected love lyrics composed during the 1930s by Cole Porter, whose witty and urbane music epitomized the Golden era of American light music. These lyrics present an interesting paradox – a man who longed for his music to be accepted by the American public, yet remained indifferent to the social mores of the time. Porter offered trenchant social commentary aimed at a society restricted by social taboos and cultural conventions. The argument develops systematically through a chronological and contextual study of the influences of people and events on a man and his music. The prosodic intonation and imagistic texture of the lyrics demonstrate an intimate correlation between personality and composition which, in turn, is supported by the biographical content. KEY WORDS: Broadway, Cole Porter, early Hollywood musicals, gays and musicals, innuendo, musical comedy, social taboos, song lyrics, Tin Pan Alley, 1930 film censorship ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I should like to thank Professor Ivan Rabinowitz, my supervisor, who has been both my mentor and an unfailing source of encouragement; Dawie Malan who was so patient in sourcing material from libraries around the world with remarkable fortitude and good humour; Dr Robin Lee who suggested the title of my dissertation; Dr Elspa Hovgaard who provided academic and helpful comment; my husband, Henry Holloway, a musicologist of world renown, who had to share me with another man for three years; and the man himself, Cole Porter, whose lyrics have thrilled, and will continue to thrill, music lovers with their sophistication and wit.

  • Father Riggs of Yale by Stephen Schmalhofer
    Dispatch March 24, 2021 05:11 pm Father Riggs of Yale by Stephen Schmalhofer We open in Venice. On an Italian holiday in 1926, early on in his Broadway career, Richard Rodgers bumped into Noël Coward. Together they strolled the Lido before ducking into a friend’s beach cabana, where Coward introduced Rodgers for the first time to “a slight, delicate-featured man with soft saucer eyes.” Cole Porter grinned up at the visitors and insisted that both men join him for dinner that evening at a little place he was renting. Porter sent one of his gondoliers to pick up Rodgers. At his destination, liveried footmen helped him out of the boat. He gazed in wonder up the grand staircase of Porter’s “little place,” the three-story Ca’ Rezzonico, where Robert Browning died and John Singer Sargent once kept a studio. This was not the only dramatic understatement from Porter that day. In the music room after dinner, their host urged Rodgers and Coward to play some of their songs. Afterwards Porter took his turn. “As soon as he touched the keyboard to play ‘a few of my little things,’ I became aware that here was not merely a talented dilettante, but a genuinely gifted theatre composer and lyricist,” recalled Rodgers in his autobiography, Musical Stages. “Songs like ‘Let’s Do It,’ ‘Let’s Misbehave,’ and ‘Two Babes in the Wood,’ which I heard that night for the first time, fairly cried out to be heard from the stage.” Rodgers wondered aloud what Porter was doing wasting his talent and time in a life of Venetian indolence.

  • Twentieth Century Fox: 1935-1965
    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release June 1990 Twentieth Century Fox: 1935-1965 July 1 - September 11, 1990 This summer, The Museum of Modern Art pays tribute to Twentieth Century Fox with a retrospective of over ninety films made between 1935 and 1965. Opening on July 1, 1990, TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX: 1935-1965 traces three key decades in the history of the studio, celebrating the talents of the artists on both sides of the cameras who shaped this period. The exhibition continues through September 11. Formed in 1915, the Fox Film Corporation merged in 1935 with the much younger Twentieth Century to launch a major new studio. Under the supervision of Darryl F. Zanuck, Twentieth Century Fox developed a new house style, emphasizing epic biographies such as John Ford's The Prisoner of Shark Island (1936) and Allan Dwan's Suez (1938) and snappy urban pictures such as Sidney Lanfield's Hake Up and Live (1937) and Roy Del Ruth's Thanks a Million (1935). The studio also featured such fresh screen personalities as Tyrone Power, Alice Faye, and Shirley Temple. From this time on, the studio masterfully anticipated and shaped the tastes of the movie-going public. During World War II, Twentieth Century Fox made its mark with a series of exuberant Technicolor musicals featuring such actresses as Betty Grable and Carmen Miranda. After the war, the studio shifted focus and began to highlight other genres including films noirs such as Edmund Goulding's Nightmare Alley (1947) and Otto Preminger's Where the Sidewalk Ends (1950), wry satirical films such as Joseph L.

  • MARK HELLINGER THEATER (Originally Hollywood Theater), 217-239 West 51St Street, Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission January 5, 1988; Designation List 199 LP-1338 MARK HELLINGER THEATER (originally Hollywood Theater), 217-239 West 51st Street, Manhattan. Built 1929; architect, Thomas Lamb. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1023, Lot 11. On June 14 and 15, 1982, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Mark Hellinger Theater and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 34). The hearing was continued to October 19, 1982. Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Eighty-one witnesses spoke or had statements read into the record in favor of designation. One witness spoke in opposition to designation. The owner, with his representatives, appeared at the hearing, and indicated that he had not formulated an opinion regarding designation. The Commission has received many letters and other expressions of support in favor of this designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The Mark He 11 inger Theater survives today as one of the few intact grand movie palaces in Manhattan, as well as one of the historic theaters that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Built for Warner Brothers in 1929 as the Hollywood Theater, it showcased movies and then vaudeville until 1934, when it was first converted for use as a legitimate theater. Warner Brothers was one of the great studios dominating American film­ making in the 1920s. Having successfully developed sound movies, the company in 1928 embarked on a campaign to buy or build theaters in which to exhibit its new sound productions.
