Marvin, Tony Meehan and Bruce Welch, Richard O’Sullivan and Melvyn Hayes. Directed by: Sidney J. Furie. A swinging sixties British film musical, featuring Cliff Richard as a young singer, Robert Morley as his father and Carole Gray as the love interest. Legendary guitar group The Shadows perform as his band. A classic ‘the show must go on’ story, in which a group of young people find that their youth club is in danger of being flattened to make way for a new office block unless they can pay off the new owner, a ruthless property tycoon. To help raise the cash, Nicky, played by Cliff Richard, records a song and his friends broadcast it via a pirate radio station, calling him “The Mystery Singer” - the plan works and interest in their up and coming show is heightened by this new but unknown heart-throb. However, Nicky has an even bigger secret that he cannot share, even with his girlfriend Toni. Filmed in immaculate Eastmancolor with ambitious use of crane shots, the film stands out among the typical British pop vehicle of its day, paving the way for generations of youthful musicals.

It argues that the biopic is a necessary category because producers, reviewers and cinemagoers have significant investments in biographical subjects, and because biopics construct a ‘public history’ for a broad audience.

  • War Cinema– Or How British Films Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Affluent Society
    1 THE PROFESSIONAL OFFICER CLASS IN POST- WAR CINEMA– OR HOW BRITISH FILMS LEARNED TO STOP WORRYING AND LOVE THE AFFLUENT SOCIETY A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Andrew Roberts College of Business, Arts and Social Sciences of Brunel University 22nd September2014 2 ABSTRACT My central argument is that mainstream British cinema of the 1951 – 1965 period marked the end of the paternalism, as exemplified by a professional ‘officer class’, as consumerism gradually came to be perceived as the norm as opposed to a post-war enemy. The starting point is 1951, the year of the Conservative victory in the General Election and a time which most films were still locally funded. The closing point is 1965, by which point the vast majority of British films were funded by the USA and often featured a youthful and proudly affluent hero. Thus, this fourteen year describes how British cinema moved away from the People as Hero guided by middle class professionals in the face of consumerism. Over the course of this work, I will analyse the creation of the archetypes of post-war films and detail how the impact of consumerism and increased Hollywood involvement in the UK film industry affected their personae. However, parallel with this apparently linear process were those films that questioned or attacked the wartime consensus model. As memories of the war receded, and the Rank/ABPC studio model collapsed, there was an increasing sense of deracination across a variety of popular British cinematic genres. From the beginning of our period there is a number films that infer that the “Myth of the Blitz”, as developed in a cinematic sense, was just that and our period ends with films that convey a sense of a fragmenting society.

    Celebrating British cinema of the 1950s ian mackillop and neil sinyard To counterbalance the rather tepid humanism of our cinema, it might also be said that it is snobbish, anti-intelligent, emotionally inhibited, willfully blind to the conditions and problems of the present, dedicated to an out of date, exhausted national idea. (Lindsay Anderson) Who will ever forget those days at Iver when, cloistered in the fumed oak dining room (reminiscent of the golf club where no one ever paid his sub- scription), frightened producers blanched at the mere idea of any film that contained the smallest tincture of reality? (Frederic Raphael) T this book is an event which took place on Saturday, 5 December 1998 at the British Library in London. It was a study day consisting of lectures about British cinema in the 1950s: most of these are printed here, with an equal number of new essays which have been written since. In the evenings of the week preceding the study day, seven films were screened. They appeared under the headings of ‘Festive Fifties’ (The Impor- tance of Being Earnest, in a sparkling new print), ‘Community Fifties’ (John and Julie and The Browning Version), ‘Tough Fifties’ (Women of Twilight and Hell Drivers) and ‘Women’s Fifties’ (My Teenage Daughter and Yield to the Night). I am Professor of English Literature at the University of Sheffield. I am the author of two books on British intellectual life: F. R. Leavis: A Life in Criticism (Allan Lane, 1995) and The British Ethical Societies (Cambridge University Press, 1985), and a book about François Truffaut and Henri Pierre Roché, author of Jules and Jim and Two English Girls and the Continent.

  • Adaptations of Robbery Under Arms, None of These Ventures Came to Fruition
    ADAPTATIONS ranks with Marcus Clarke’s His Natural R LLifeife () and Steele Rudd’s On Our Selection () as one of the Australian works most frequently adapted for stage and screen. The very popular stage-melodrama version by Garnet Walch and Alfred Dampier, first performed in , was followed in by one of the earliest Australian feature films, produced by theatrical entrepreneur Charles MacMahon. In Dampier’s daughter Lily and her husband Alfred Rolfe made another silent film version under the title Captain Starlight, presumably to distinguish it from MacMahon’s film.1 Actor Kenneth Brampton, however, went back to the original title for his silent film, which he directed as well as wrote, also playing the leading role as Captain Starlight. While a number of major figures in the Australian film industry, including Raymond Longford, Ken Hall and Charles Chauvel, later planned to undertake adaptations of Robbery Under Arms, none of these ventures came to fruition. Eventually, Jack Lee directed a sound and technicolour version for the English Rank Organisation, released in , starring Peter Finch as Starlight. This was followed in by another Australian production by Jock Blair, made in separate versions for both film and television, with Sam Neill as Starlight. An adaptation of a work to another medium can be seen as a materialised reading, one determined not only by the constraining technologies, legal regulations and generic conventions prevailing at the time the adaptation is made, but also by assumptions about audience expectations and prevailing moral standards. As a police magistrate himself, Rolf Boldrewood became incensed at claims 1 ‘Introduction’, Alfred Dampier and Garnet Walch, Robbery Under Arms, ed.
