  • Musical Movie Memories Discussion Guide for 1940S Music Run DVD Film Segments on a TV Or Projection TV System to an Assembled Group
    DiMusicalscussion Guide forMovi 1920s-30se MusicMemories Run film segments one at a time on a TV or projection system. Pause on the 4 questions at the end of each so the viewers can respond and share their memories woken by the film. This Discussion Guide suggests additional questions to aid the session leader. All films in this special program are filled with music, singers and bands from the late 1920s through the 1930s. Music has proven helpful in bringing smiles and distant memories even to seniors with alzheimers. Unlike regular volumes of Movie Memories with their vast variety, there may not be that much to discuss with some of the films. You can tell by reactions whether the viewers enjoy the films. Standard questions which can be applied to each segment are: Did you like the song? Do you like jazz and swing bands? Do you remember ___________? Would you like to watch the film again? What is your favorite song from this era? Do you want to see more Bing Crosby musicals? Etc. Do not hesitate to ask these simple questions again and again! Disc #1 Al Jolson Trailers We just watched coming attractions for 3 Al Jolson films: Wonder Bar (1934), Go Into Your Dance (1935) and The Singing Kid (1936). These “trailers” showed the highlights of three of Al’s films from the mid-1930s. Have you ever see the first sound film -- The Jazz Singer -- with Al Jolson on TV? Do the trailers make you want to see the complete movies? Who are your favorite singers, stars or dancers from 1930s Hollywood musicals? Glorifying the American Girl This 1929 musical comedy was produced by Florenz Ziegfeld and highlights Ziegfeld’s current star, dancer Mary Eaton.

    University of California Berkeley of California Regional Oral History Office University California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, Norma Teagarden GRAND LADY OF PIANO JAZZ With Introductions by Cyra McFadden and Marilyn Unsworth Interviews Conducted by Caroline Crawford 1992-1994 Copyright 1994 by The Regents of the University of California Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well -placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the Nation. Oral history is a modern research technique involving an interviewee and an informed interviewer in spontaneous conversation. The taped record is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The resulting manuscript is typed in final form, indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************************************ All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Norma Teagarden dated March 28, 1994.
