At the same time, both Jules Verne's novel and its screen adaptations contain clear-cut western pragmatism – the confidence that if a man has a proper will he can rule his destiny. Keywords: media stereotypes; Russian image; media studies; media literacy education; film studies; students; screen; film; Michael Strogoff. Introduction The last bright Cold War movie peak fell on the early 1980s when Russians as part of the monolithic and aggressive system were portrayed as products of their environment – malicious, potent, highly revolutionary in the whole world.

  • Jules Verne's Mikhail Strogoff Chapter 1 Complete
    JULES VERNE'S MIKHAIL STROGOFF translated by Stephanie Smee Translated from the original French text, Michel Strogoff: Moscou—Irkoutsk, by Jules Verne, first published by J.Hetzel et cie in Paris, 1876. Translation copyright © Stephanie Smee To be Published by Eagle Books, 2016 All rights reserved. PART ONE I A BALL AT THE NEW PALACE ‘Sire, fresh news just in!’ ‘From?’ ‘From Tomsk.’ ‘And beyond that town the line is cut?’ ‘It has been since yesterday.’ ‘Have a telegram sent to Tomsk on the hour, every hour, and keep me informed, General.’ ‘Yes, Sire,’ replied General Kissoff. The exchange took place at two o’clock in the morning, just as the ball at the New Palace was at the height of its glory. The Preobrajensky and Paulovsky regimental orchestras had carefully selected from their dance repertoire the best of their polkas, mazurkas, schottisches and waltzes and had played non- stop. Dancing couples multiplied into the distance across the magnificent reception rooms of the palace, built just a few steps from that ‘old house of stones’, scene in the past to so many terrible tragedies, echoes of which had returned that night to beat time with the quadrilles. The Grand Marshal of the court found himself well assisted in his rather sensitive duties. Grand dukes and their aides-de-camp, chamberlains and palace officials all presided over the order of the dances. Diamond-bedecked grand duchesses in their finest ball gowns, surrounded by their ladies-in-waiting, valiantly set the tone for the wives of senior civil and military officials from the old ‘white-stone’ city.

  • Les Avatars Cinématographiques Du Michel Strogoff De Joseph N. Ermolieff
    Submitted September 21, 2014 Published January 2, 2015 Proposé le 21 septembre 2014 Publié le 2 janvier 2015 Les avatars cinématographiques du Michel Strogoff de Joseph N. Ermolieff Philippe Burgaud Abstract Jules Verne's novels were often adapted for the cinema, but some adaptations of Michael Strogoff deserve a special mention. The producer J.N. Ermolieff had the good idea to make several versions with the same actor in the role of Michael Strogoff, and even a version in which, with another actor, he reused the footage of battle scenes or movements of crowds of the first version. This set of four versions represent a curiosity produced in the thirties and forties. Being the first speaking version of this novel, the French and German versions of Michael Strogoff were followed by an American version and finally by a Mexican version. Many advertisements and newspaper articles (ads and reports) accompanied the release of the films in many countries. Résumé Les romans de Jules Verne ont souvent été adaptés au cinéma, mais certaines adaptations de Michel Strogoff méritent une mention spéciale. Le producteur J.N. Ermolieff eut la bonne idée de réaliser plusieurs versions avec le même acteur dans le rôle de Michel Strogoff, et même une version dans laquelle, en changeant d'acteur, il réutilisait les séquences des scènes de batailles ou des mouvements de foules de la première version. Cet ensemble de quatre versions constitue une curiosité produite dans les années trente et quarante. Pour une première version parlante de ce roman, un Michel Strogoff en français et en allemand sera suivi par une version américaine et finalement par une version mexicaine.

  • A Certain Tendency of the French Cinema Francois Truffaut
    A CERTAIN TENDENCY OF THE FRENCH CINEMA FRANCOIS TRUFFAUT These notes have no other object than to attempt to define a certain tendency of the French cinema - a tendency called "psychological realism" - and to sketch its limits. If the French cinema exists by means of about a hundred films a year, it is well understood that only ten or twelve merit the attention of critics and cinephiles, the attention, therefore of "Cahiers." These ten or twelve films constitute what has been prettily named the "Tradition of Quality"; they force, by their ambitiousness, the admiration of the foreign press, defend the French flag twice a year at Cannes and at Venice where, since 1946, they regularly carry off medals, golden lions and grands prix. With the advent of "talkies," the French cinema was a frank plagiarism of the American cinema. Under the influence of Scarface, we made the amusing Pepe Le Moko. Then the French scenario is most clearly obliged to Prevert for its evolution: Quai Des Brumes (Port Of Shadows) remains the masterpiece of poetic realism. The war and the post-war period renewed our cinema. It evolved under the effect of an internal pressure and for poetic realism - about which one might say that it died closing Les Portes De La Nuit behind it - was substituted psychological realism, illustrated by Claude Autant-Lara, Jean Dellannoy, Rene Clement, Yves Allegret and Marcel Pagliero. SCENARISTS' FILMS If one is willing to remember that not so long ago Delannoy filmed Le Bossu and La Part De L'Ombre, Claude Autant-Lara Le Plombier Amoureux and Lettres D Amour, Yves Allegret La Boite Aux Reves and Les Demons De L’Aube, that all these films are justly recognized as strictly commercial enterprises, one will admit that, the successes or failures of these cineastes being a function of the scenarios they chose, La Symphonie Pastorale, Le Diable Au Corps (Devil In The Flesh), Jeux Interdits (Forbidden Games), Maneges, Un Homme Marche Dans La Ville, are essentially scenarists' films.
