  • Black Soldiers in Liberal Hollywood

    Black Soldiers in Liberal Hollywood

    Katherine Kinney Cold Wars: Black Soldiers in Liberal Hollywood n 1982 Louis Gossett, Jr was awarded the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his portrayal of Gunnery Sergeant Foley in An Officer and a Gentleman, becoming theI first African American actor to win an Oscar since Sidney Poitier. In 1989, Denzel Washington became the second to win, again in a supporting role, for Glory. It is perhaps more than coincidental that both award winning roles were soldiers. At once assimilationist and militant, the black soldier apparently escapes the Hollywood history Donald Bogle has named, “Coons, Toms, Bucks, and Mammies” or the more recent litany of cops and criminals. From the liberal consensus of WWII, to the ideological ruptures of Vietnam, and the reconstruction of the image of the military in the Reagan-Bush era, the black soldier has assumed an increasingly prominent role, ironically maintaining Hollywood’s liberal credentials and its preeminence in producing a national mythos. This largely static evolution can be traced from landmark films of WWII and post-War liberal Hollywood: Bataan (1943) and Home of the Brave (1949), through the career of actor James Edwards in the 1950’s, and to the more politically contested Vietnam War films of the 1980’s. Since WWII, the black soldier has held a crucial, but little noted, position in the battles over Hollywood representations of African American men.1 The soldier’s role is conspicuous in the way it places African American men explicitly within a nationalist and a nationaliz- ing context: U.S. history and Hollywood’s narrative of assimilation, the combat film.

    Reviews of William Wyler's Wuthering Heights

    REVIEWS OF WILLIAM WYLER’S WUTHERING HEIGHTS Frank S. Nugent, “Goldwyn Presets Film of 'Wuthering Heights' at Rivoli,” New York Times, April 14, 1939 After a long recess, Samuel Goldwyn has returned to serious screen business again with his film "Wuthering Heights," which had its première at the Rivoli last night. It is Goldwyn at his best, and better still, Emily Brontë at hers. Out of her strange tale of a tortured romance Mr. Goldwyn and his troupe have fashioned a strong and somber film, poetically written as the novel not always was, sinister and wild as it was meant to be, far more compact dramatically than Miss Brontë had made it. During December's dusty researches we expect to be filing it away among the year's best ten; in April it is a living thing, vibrant as the wind that swept Times Square last night. One of the most incredible aspects of it is the circumstance that the story has reached the screen through the agency of Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur, as un-Brontian a pair of infidels as ever danced a rigadoon upon a classicist's grave. But be assured: as Alexander Woollcott was saying last week, they've done right by our Emily. It isn't exactly a faithful transcription, which would have served neither Miss Brontë nor the screen—whatever the Brontë societies may think about it. But it is a faithful adaptation, written reverently and well, which goes straight to the heart of the book, explores its shadows and draws dramatic fire from the savage flints of scene and character hidden there.

    WELCOME to FILM NOIR/NEO-NOIR a Robbery Or Holdup; to Take Unlawfully, Especially in a Robbery Or Holdup; Steal

    WELCOME TO FILM NOIR/NEO-NOIR a robbery or holdup; to take unlawfully, especially in a robbery or holdup; steal From The Philosophy of Neo-Noir In essence, Point Blank is an archetypical revenge thriller, but turned inside out. From 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die • …John Boorman’s thriller is as arrestingly and unselfconsciously stylish as the day it was released, • The perfect thriller in both form and vision, Boorman’s use of widescreen to full effect --- urban horizons appear bleak and wide; characters are thrown from one long end of the frame to another... Roger Ebert: • …as suspense thrillers go Point Blank is pretty good. It gets back into the groove of Hollywood thrillers, after the recent glut of spies, counterspies, funny spies, anti-hero spies and spy-spier spies. Marvin is just a plain, simple tough guy who wants to have the same justice done for him as was done for Humphrey Bogart. From FILM NOIR OF THE WEEK: •Based very loosely on Donald Westlake's crime novel 'The Hunter', John Boorman's dazzling 'Point Blank' is a fusion of 1960's New Wave aesthetics on a traditional Noir revenge plot - with decidedly fascinating results… at once an exiting and brutal revenge Noir, and an elliptical fragmented, art film influenced by New Wave filmmakers like Resnais and Antonioni. • Along with displaying a mesmerizing, rigorous color scheme (suits matching decor, dresses matching cars), and a consistently chilly use of widescreen isolation (characters divided by columns, doorways, or space), Point Blank is easily the sexiest of early neo-noirs.

    Museum of the Moving Image Presents Comprehensive Terrence Malick Retrospective

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MUSEUM OF THE MOVING IMAGE PRESENTS COMPREHENSIVE TERRENCE MALICK RETROSPECTIVE Moments of Grace: The Collected Terrence Malick includes all of his features, some alternate versions, and a preview screening of his new film A Hidden Life November 15–December 8, 2019 Astoria, New York, November 12, 2019—In celebration of Terrence Malick’s new film, the deeply spiritual, achingly ethical, and politically resonant A Hidden Life, Museum of the Moving Image presents the comprehensive retrospective Moments of Grace: The Collected Terrence Malick, from November 15 through December 8. The films in the series span a period of nearly 50 years, opening with Malick’s 1970s breakthroughs Badlands (1973) and Days of Heaven (1978), through his career-revival masterworks The Thin Red Line (1998) and The New World (2005), and continuing with his 21st- century films—from Cannes Palme d’Or winner The Tree of Life (2011); the trio of To the Wonder (2012), Knight of Cups (2015), and Song to Song (2017); and sole documentary project Voyage of Time (2016)—through to this year’s A Hidden Life. Two of these films will be presented in alternate versions—Voyage of Time and The New World—a testament to Malick’s ambitious and exploratory approach to editing. In addition to Malick’s own feature films, the series includes Pocket Money (1972), an ambling buddy comedy with Lee Marvin and Paul Newman, which he wrote (but did not direct), and Thy Kingdom Come (2018), the documentary featurette shot on the set of To the Wonder by photographer Eugene Richards.
