  • The Glorious Career of Comedienne Judy Holliday Is Celebrated in a Complete Nine-Film Retrospective
    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release November 1996 Contact: Graham Leggat 212/708-9752 THE GLORIOUS CAREER OF COMEDIENNE JUDY HOLLIDAY IS CELEBRATED IN A COMPLETE NINE-FILM RETROSPECTIVE Series Premieres New Prints of Born Yesterday and The Marrying Kind Restored by The Department of Film and Video and Sony Pictures Born Yesterday: The Films of Judy Holliday December 27,1996-January 4,1997 The Roy and Niuta Titus Theater 1 Special Premiere Screening of the Restored Print of Born Yesterday Introduced in Person by Betty Comden on Monday, December 9,1996, at 6:00 p.m. Judy Holliday approached screen acting with extraordinary intelligence and intuition, debuting in the World War II film Winged Victory (1944) and giving outstanding comic performances in eight more films from 1949 to 1960, when her career was cut short by illness. Beginning December 27, 1996, The Museum of Modern Art presents Born Yesterday: The Films of Judy Holliday, a complete retrospective of Holliday's short but exhilarating career. Holliday's experience working with director George Cukor on Winged Victory led to a collaboration with Cukor, Garson Kanin, and Kanin's wife Ruth Gordon, resulting in Adam's Rib (1949), Born Yesterday (1950), The Marrying Kind (1952), and // Should Happen To You (1952). She went on to make Phffft (1954), The Solid Gold Cadillac (1956), Full of Life (1956), and, for director Vincente Minnelli, Bells Are Ringing (1960). -more- 11 West 53 Street, New York, New York 10019 Tel: 212-708-9400 Fax: 212-708-9889 2 The Department of Film and Video and Sony Pictures Entertainment are restoring the six films that Holliday made at Columbia Pictures from 1950 to 1956.

  • Honey, You Know I Can't Hear You When You Aren
    Networking Knowledge Honey, You Know I Can’t Hear You (Jun. 2017) Honey, You Know I Can’t Hear You When You Aren’t in the Room: Key Female Filmmakers Prove the Importance of Having a Female in the Writing Room DR ROSANNE WELCH, Stephens College MFA in Screenwriting; California State University, Fullerton ABSTRACT The need for more diversity in Hollywood films and television is currently being debated by scholars and content makers alike, but where is the proof that more diverse writers will create more diverse material? Since all forms of art are subjective, there is no perfect way to prove the importance of having female writers in the room except through samples of qualitative case studies of various female writers across the history of film. By studying the writing of several female screenwriters – personal correspondence, interviews and their writing for the screen – this paper will begin to prove that having a female voice in the room has made a difference in several prominent films. It will further hypothesise that greater representation can only create greater opportunity for more female stories and voices to be heard. Research for my PhD dissertation ‘Married: With Screenplay’ involved the work of several prominent female screenwriters across the first century of filmmaking, including Anita Loos, Dorothy Parker, Frances Goodrich and Joan Didion. In all of their memoirs and other writings about working on screenplays, each mentioned the importance of (often) being the lone woman in the room during pitches and during the development of a screenplay. Goodrich summarised all their experiences concisely when she wrote, ‘I’m always the only woman working on the picture and I hold the fate of the women [characters] in my hand… I’ll fight for what the gal will or will not do, and I can be completely unfeminine about it.’ Also, the rise of female directors, such as Barbra Streisand or female production executives, such as Kathleen Kennedy, prove that one of the greatest assets to having a female voice in the room is the ability to invite other women inside.

Grove St. Born Yesterday is one of America’s original screwball comedies! Harry Brock is a business tycoon who goes to Washington trying to break into the ‘special interest’ business with an ethically-challenged senator. He realizes that his fiancee, Billie Dawn, may need a makeover to fit his new inside-the-beltway image. To ensure that Billie gets properly ‘culturefied,’ Brock hires a D.C. journalist to give the seemingly dim-witted blonde a crash course in politics, history, literature, and—of course—true love.

American Studies, University of Massachusetts Boston A Jewish-created urban and cosmopolitan working girl feminism persisted in the 1950s as a cultural alternative to the suburban, domestic consumerism critiqued so eloquently by Betty Friedan in The Feminine Mystique . The film persona of Jewish, Academy Award-winning actress Judy Holliday embodied this working girl feminism. Audiences viewed her portrayals of popular front working girl heroines in three films written by the Jewish writer and director Garson Kanin, sometimes in association with his wife, the actress Ruth Gordon, and directed by the Jewish director George Cukor in the early 1950s: Born Yesterday (1950), The Marrying Kind (1952), and It Should Happen to You (1954).

  • Ancient Tragedy, Echoed by a Chorus of Veterans - the New York Times
    The Lunatic Is on the Air: A Stoppard Radio Play for Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon' - NYTimes.com MARCH 28, 2013, 8:51 AM The Lunatic Is on the Air: A Stoppard Radio Play for Pink Floyd’s ‘Dark Side of the Moon’ By DAVE ITZKOFF The 40th anniversary of the release of “The Dark Side of the Moon,” that best-selling Pink Floyd album, technically occurred earlier this month. But in the case of a seminal prog-rock record that deals with the nature of time (and the slowing-down thereof), we’ll forgive Tom Stoppard if his unique effort to celebrate this milestone doesn’t actually arrive until the summer. Mr. Stoppard, the celebrated playwright of “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead” and “The Coast of Utopia” and a screenwriter of “Shakespeare in Love,” among many other works, has written a new play for British radio that will mark the 40 years since “The Dark Side of the Moon” was released in March 1973, The Guardian reported. But this latest dramatic work is no simple narrative of how Roger Waters, David Gilmour and company spent several months at Abbey Road recording songs like “Money,” “Time” and “Breathe.” This one’s … a little weird. Describing Mr. Stoppard’s radio play, called “Dark Side,” at its Web site, the BBC called it “a fantastical and psychedelic story based on themes from the seminal album” that incorporates “music from the album and a gripping story that takes listeners on a journey through their imaginations.” (So keep your black-light posters handy, apparently.)

  • BORN YESTERDAY by Garson Kanin Directed by Susi Damilano
    For immediate release Publicist: Anne Abrams [email protected] San Francisco Playhouse presents BORN YESTERDAY By Garson Kanin Directed by Susi Damilano Press Opening: Saturday, January 27th at 8pm Performances: January 23 – March 10, 2018 Tues, Wed, Thurs 7pm / Fri, Sat 8pm / Sat 3pm, Sun 2pm Preview Performances: January 23 – 26 at 8pm SAN FRANCISCO (December 2017) — San Francisco Playhouse (Artistic Director Bill English; Producing Director Susi Damilano) announced casting for the third show of its 2017-18 Mainstage Season—Born Yesterday. Written by Garson Kanin, the play premiered on Broadway in 1946. Susi Damilano will direct the San Francisco Playhouse revival. Harry, a ruthless, thuggish millionaire—with his showgirl fiancée, Billie, in tow—comes to Washington to bribe a senator and enrich his business interests. He soon hires a reporter to clean up Billie’s image; but as she awakens to a world full of possibilities, she starts to question corruption’s stranglehold over the disadvantaged. “When I read this play, I was immediately struck by how resoundingly its message still rings after 70 years,” said Producing Director Susi Damilano. “The timeless story of integrity triumphing over political self-interest feels as relevant as ever—and, I hope, will provide us with an opportunity to reflect on our own human nature.” The cast of Born Yesterday will feature Millie Brooks*, Michael Torres*, Anthony Fusco*, Ed Berkeley*, Jason Kapoor*, Louis Parnell*, Derek Fischer, Terry Bamberger, Casey Robert Spiegel, Marty Lee Jones, and Melissa Quine. Garson Kanin (Playwright) was an esteemed theater and film director as well as a prolific writer.

Gleichzeitig steht sie auch für die Entwicklung einer hoch effizienten Industrie, die durch die standardisierte und radikal am Markt orientierte Filmproduktion maximale Gewinne erwirtschaften konnte. Um die Genregeschichte im Hollywoodkino nachzeichnen zu können, muss daher auch eine historisch-ökonomische Perspektive eingenommen werden. Dies ist Aufgabe und Ziel des vorliegenden Artikels, der zu diesem Zweck bei den Entstehungsjahren der Filmindustrie in Hollywood beginnt, anschließend auf die Etablierung und den Zerfall des Studiosystems eingeht, bevor dann auf das global erfolgreiche Megagenre ‚Blockbuster‘ eingegangen wird.

  • Born Yesterday by Ariel Schudson
    Born Yesterday By Ariel Schudson Originally penned by Garson Kanin with assistance from wife and creative partner Ruth Gordon, “Born Yester- day” began as a successful Broadway play. The original stage cast included such luminaries as Paul Douglas, Jean Arthur, Judy Holliday and even Lon Chaney Junior in one non-Broadway production! Eventually, the play moved towards Hollywood and became the film re- leased by Columbia Pictures, receiving certification in September of 1950. The screenplay was credited to Albert Mannheimer (who also received an Oscar nomination), but it was not the one that was ultimately used. None of the major players liked it -- not Garson Kanin, not George Cukor, and especially not Columbia studio head Harry Cohn. William Holden, Broderick Crawford and Judy Holliday.
