Hughes, Secretary • Druaud 6/ 66 Delta Kappa Alpha .._ ·. ·- ... September 13, 1966 Mr. Paul M. Sherr 2305 Sabine Austin, Texas 78703 Dear Mr. Sherr: Dr. Kantor has given me you letter of August 5th in which you ask several 9uestions . First, let me say that we are sending you copies of our Bulletins, both under 7 raduate and graduate and some other published material regarding the curriculum and the Deparbnent. We do not have a list of text books used in all the classes s i nce this changes from semester to semester depending upon the courses which are offered, the instructor, and the books which are availabii at the t~e. This takes into con­ sideration those books which go out of print and the · few new ones \oihich become available. I am sending you material from the current bookstore list which relates only to this fall semester . I hope that this :i.nfor­ mation is of some help to you. As far as a film fraternity i s concerned, we do have such an organization on our campus. Delta Kappa Alpha has been active continously since about 1936. This is nominally a national organization since ther e are now well over a thousand alumni members who have been active members of the Alpha chapter when they were in school. At different times, chapter• have been founded at other shcools and these tvwre active as long as the one person who seemed to be the "spark plug" kept up his int er est . In every case, after a year or two, the roup seemed to degenerate and we were never able to keep it going. The operation never got big enough to put out a regular newsletter and we have relied on alumni contacts through Cinema to maintain relationships. Chapters were started at UCLA, NYU, and Boston, but none of these are active at the present time. One of the criteria used in establishing the chapters wa~ that the particular shcool needed to offer a full major course of study in cinema or motion pictures. I have been acting aa Executi ve Secretary really without po r.~ol io , in an effort to keep together the records for the time when the national organization mi~ht again become a g~re ssiv fly ~ctive. Perhaps the proper procedure would be for me to get you in contact with the officers of the Alpha chapter at USC for such help as they could be in help·ng you to organize a program and get going. Af ter a year or t\-10 of successful operation as a local film group, \Je ~ould then know tt~hether or not it would be desirable to consider affi liation as a par t of t national organization. I would appreciate your thinking on this. 2305 Sabine Austin, Texas, 78703 August 5, 1966 Dr. Bernard Kantor Chairman, Dept. of Cinema University of wouthern California University Park Los Angeles, California Dear Dr. Kantor, I am p l eased to think that you will remember me as one of your students last summer. Unfortuneately, financial reasons have prevented me from returning to USC as I had disscussed with you, but I hope I can still prevail upon our friendship. I am now working toward my Master's de gree at the University of Texas, and I am i nvolved in research and making plans to teach Cinema in the future. I have three re ~uests: Fi rst, I would like to know~~ if you could recomm end a ge e al bibliography of books ~Q..,of/1 ~ ( \., qv-i on film. Secondly, I woul.d like to have a list of the courses offered at USC, and, mOre importantly, a list t.A~t"'i of t he texts used~y, a personal project of mine ~ 1 is to organize a film fraternity here at the University --- 11 7'/ f {. o";, ~ ... of Te xas for spea cer progr ams, parties, and so on, as well , J ~ ch1 "f4J ~ as t offer a focus of attention for t he people on campus c~ (, ,J 0 """' • • .. r .. -2- I / interested in film .

    An Excursion into the Lower Depths: Hollywood, Urban Primitivism, and St. Louis Blues, 1929-1937 Peter Stanfield Cinema Journal, 41, Number 2, Winter 2002, pp. 84-108 (Article) Published by University of Texas Press DOI: 10.1353/cj.2002.0004 For additional information about this article http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/cj/summary/v041/41.2stanfield.html Access Provided by Amherst College at 09/03/11 7:59PM GMT An Excursion into the Lower Depths: Hollywood, Urban Primitivism, and St. Louis Blues, 1929–1937 by Peter Stanfield This essay considers how Hollywood presented the song St. Louis Blues in a num- ber of movies during the early to mid-1930s. It argues that the tune’s history and accumulated use in films enabled Hollywood to employ it in an increasingly com- plex manner to evoke essential questions about female sexuality, class, and race. Recent critical writing on American cinema has focused attention on the struc- tures of racial coding of gender and on the ways in which moral transgressions are routinely characterized as “black.” As Eric Lott points out in his analysis of race and film noir: “Raced metaphors in popular life are as indispensable and invisible as the colored bodies who give rise to and move in the shadows of those usages.” Lott aims to “enlarge the frame” of work conducted by Toni Morrison and Ken- neth Warren on how “racial tropes and the presence of African Americans have shaped the sense and structure of American cultural products that seem to have nothing to do with race.”1 Specifically, Lott builds on Manthia D iawara’s argument that “film is noir if it puts into play light and dark in order to exhibit a people who become ‘black’ because of their ‘shady’ moral behaviour.2 E.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to extend my sincere thanks to our members, professional staff, and volunteers who have put enormous time and energy into making this conference a reality. This is my final conference as SCMS President, a position I have held for the past four years. Prior to my presidency, I served two years as President-Elect, and before that, three years as Treasurer. As I look forward to my new role as Past-President, I have begun to reflect on my near decade-long involvement with the administration of the Society. Needless to say, these years have been challenging, inspiring, and expansive. We have traveled to and met in numerous cities, including Atlanta, London, Minneapolis, Vancouver, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Los Angeles. We celebrated our 50th anniversary as a scholarly association. We planned but unfortunately were unable to hold our 2009 conference at Josai University in Tokyo. We mourned the untimely death of our colleague and President-Elect Anne Friedberg while honoring her distinguished contributions to our field. We planned, developed, and launched our new website and have undertaken an ambitious and wide-ranging strategic planning process so as to better position SCMS to serve its members and our discipline today and in the future. At one of our first strategic planning sessions, Justin Wyatt, our gifted and hardworking consultant, asked me to explain to the Board why I had become involved with the work of the Society in the first place.

  • The World's Largest and Most Extraordinary Collection
    For Immediate Release: THE WORLD’S LARGEST AND MOST EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION OF SIGNED HOLLYWOOD PHOTOGRAPHS WILL BE OFFERED AT JULIEN’S AUCTIONS IN LOS ANGELES ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2016 Harold Lloyd’s Rogues Gallery of Exclusive Hollywood Autographed Photographs Los Angeles, California – (September 15, 2016) – Julien’s Auctions, the world-record breaking auction house to the stars, will present one of the world’s most extraordinary collections of autographed Hollywood photographs — Harold Lloyd’s Rogues Gallery — on Friday, September 23, 2016 in Los Angeles. The collection features nearly 200 rare, signed photographs from Hollywood’s Golden Era. The auction will take place at the highly-anticipated Icons & Idols: Hollywood auction event that weekend at Julien’s Auction Gallery in Los Angeles. The Rogues Gallery Autograph Collection is the most extensive and unique autograph collection amassed by the silent film star Harold Lloyd and is comprised of the most significant figures of Hollywood’s “Golden Age.” This one-of-a-kind collection is a time capsule of Hollywood, Americana and the politics of the day. “The King of Daredevil Comedy,” Harold Lloyd is best remembered today as the young man dangling desperately from a clock tower in the 1923 classic, “Safety Last.” At the height of his career, Lloyd was one of the most popular and highest-paid stars of his time. He made more films than his contemporaries Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton combined. With hits like his 1922 film “Grandma’s Boy,” Lloyd became a strong force in bringing about the advent of the “feature-length” film. Harold Lloyd’s acting career rose to prominence during the silent film era and spanned 34 years of active filmmaking, over 200 comedies and one 1928 Academy Award nomination.

  • HAROLD LLOYD Brooklyn Speedy Film Location Tour a SILENT VISIONS Tour of Brooklyn This Tour Is Provided As a Spec
    HAROLD LLOYD Brooklyn Speedy Film Location Tour A SILENT VISIONS Tour of Brooklyn This tour is provided as a special bonus to author John Bengtson’s introduction of Harold Lloyd’s Speedy at Film Forum, 209 West Houston Street, New York, on Sunday, October 21 at 3:10 pm, and on Monday, October 22 at 7:30 pm, supplementing his book Silent Visions: Discovering Early Hollywood and New York through the Films of Harold Lloyd, Santa Monica Press (2011). The tour is annotated with corresponding page numbers (SV) from Bengtson’s book. Harold Lloyd filmed his final silent comedy feature Speedy (1928) in New York and Brooklyn during the late summer of 1927. Aside from a lengthy sequence filmed at Coney Island (filmed partly at Venice, California), most of the Brooklyn locations were filmed in the D.U.M.B.O. (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass) neighborhood. While the elevated trolley tracks appearing in the film that once ran along Old Fulton Street and along Broadway no longer exist, many filming spots are still recognizable. Lloyd plays title character Harold “Speedy” Swift (“Speedy” was Lloyd’s real‐life nickname), who celebrates losing his soda jerk job by taking his girl, Jane (played by Ann Christy), to Coney Island for the day. Speedy’s next job as a taxi‐cab driver ends disastrously, but not before he takes Babe Ruth (in a cameo appearance) on a wild ride to Yankee Stadium. Jane’s grandfather, Pop, operates the last remaining horse‐drawn trolley franchise in New York. Shady developers wish to buy out Pop’s interest, but when he refuses their low offer, they steal his trolley, as they know the franchise will expire if the trolley does not run at least once every 24 hours.
