  • Marilyn Monroe and Niagara
    Icons are all around us, and often we don’t even question it. So ingrained is their power their image becomes synonymous with what they represent. The Statue of Liberty, a gift from the French, has come to represent a cultural welcome, freedom from oppression. After thousands of immigrants arrivals and generations of hardship, the sighting of the Statue in New York harbor has become iconic. Fifteen minutes of fame does not an icon make. An icon requires survival of a multistep process, which pushes the image to its limits. Firstly, an icon needs to have common roots, at least one foot among the masses. This is what allows the spectator to take ownership and feel connected and makes them a viable icon. An icon cannot be a representative of a group if it is not one of what it stands for. Secondly, the icon while remaining at its base “common”, must have an exceptional, unique qualtiy whic makes it the best example of something. It is the fastest, the highest, or the furthest. After it gains popularity because of these two first qualities, it then must stand a rigorous litany of deconstruction, digestion, and interrogation, before it can reach the fourth phase of being praised, lauded and embraced as the quintessential one of its kind. The irony is that once it claims icon status, all that made it so interesting to begin with has been stripped away. It has been so contorted, manipulated as to be simplified for the masses that only that one outstanding unique quality remains, and everything else is ignored.

  • Dean Martin, La Voce Di “That’S Amore”
    Dean Martin, la voce di “That’s amore” Dean Martin, pseudonimo di Dino Paul Crocetti (Martin deriva da Martino, cognome della madre molisana), nasce a Steubenville, nello stato dell'Ohio, il 7 giugno 1917. Abbandonata la scuola a sedici anni, compie diversi lavori, compreso il pugile e il benzinaio, fino a quando, con il nome d'arte di Dean Martin, s'impone come cantante a New York. E' il 25 luglio 1946 quando Dean Martin si esibisce per la prima volta in coppia con Jerry Lewis al "Club 500" di Atlantic City. I due artisti danno vita ad un duo comico di successo, che dura per un decennio esatto, realizzando anche quindici film di successo, da "La mia amica Irma" di George Marshall (1949) a "Hollywood o morte!" (1956), passando per "Irma va a Hollywood", "Il sergente di legno", "Quel fenomeno di mio figlio" e "Attente ai marinai", tutti di Hal Walker, tra il 1950 e il 1951, quindi "Il caporale Sam", "Il cantante matto", "Occhio alla palla", "Più vivo che morto", "Il nipote picchiatello" e "Mezzogiorno di fifa", tutti di Norman Taurog, tra il 1952 e il 1955. Ancora: "Morti di paura" e "I figli del secolo" di George Marshall (1953-54), "Il circo a tre piste" di Joseph Pevney (1954), "Artisti e modelle" e "Hollywood o morte!" di Frank Tashlin (1955-56). La coppia è legata anche a programmi televisivi, come il varietà di successo "The Colgate Comedy Hour" (1950), di cui diventano anche conduttori. Il sodalizio artistico s'interrompe il 24 luglio 1956. La carriera di Martin, nonostante la rottura della coppia, continua a mietere successi.

  • Announces: NIAGARA Composed by SOL KAPLAN RIVER of NO RETURN Composed by LIONEL NEWMAN, LEIGH HARLINE, and CYRIL MOCKRIDGE Intra
    Announces: NIAGARA Composed by SOL KAPLAN RIVER OF NO RETURN Composed by LIONEL NEWMAN, LEIGH HARLINE, and CYRIL MOCKRIDGE Intrada Special Collection Volume ISC 157 Intrada's latest double-header from the 20th Century Fox catalog features two films starring Marilyn Monroe. The first, Niagara (1953), is a tight, nasty film noir, crisply directed by veteran Henry Hathaway and starring Monroe, Joseph Cotten as her tortured husband, and Jean Peters as an innocent young woman whose kindness entangles her with Monroe’s nefarious plans to get rid of her spouse. Composing duties fell to composer Sol Kaplan, whose music for Niagara features an aural landscape of fretfully circling strings, blaring brass, and rumbling percussion. There is unsettling thriller music aplenty here and even the occasional moment of overheated humor. The second score featured is to the 1954 film River of No Return, telling the tale of a rancher with a past (Robert Mitchum), his young son, and a dance hall girl (Monroe) who yearns for a better life – all thrown together by chance and forced to brave Indians, mountain lions, a host of scurvy Western no-accounts, and the vagaries of a wild and woolly river. Their efforts are supported by a delightfully varied and colorful score, delivered by no less than four composers. Lionel Newman wrote the main title song, “River Of No Return,” with lyrics by Fox mainstay Ken Darby, here sung by Tennessee Ernie Ford. This tune—along with another Newman/Darby composition, “Down in the Meadow”—gets considerable instrumental play in the score; both featuring charming pieces of gentle Americana.

    The Birth of the Auteur – How the Studio Production Process Kept the Director both in and Under Ronny Regev Working Paper #47, Spring 2012 The Birth of the Auteur – How the Studio Production Process Kept the Director both In and Under Control Ronny Regev Phd Candidate in History, Princeton University [email protected] During the golden age of the Hollywood studios, what was the difference between the creative status of a screenwriter and that of a director? Consider the production of Lives of a Bengal Lancer, a Paramount picture based on a novel by Francis Yeats-Brown that followed the struggles of three British soldiers in India. Initial work on the screenplay was assigned to two writers by the names of Malcolm Stewart Bailey and Harvey Gates in early 1932. As writer Grover Jones testified, “in those days we used to write scripts alphabetically as the sequence came, A, B, C and so on. Well, they wrote and wrote and got a little discouraged, and finally got down to F and said, ‘the hell with it,’ and quit.” Then the job was handed over to Jones and his partner William Slavens McNutt. They wrote a script but the studio decided not to pursue it. Afterwards, “two or three years went by, maybe four. Writers came from all over the world to work on Bengal Lancer. They were from every place. And the cost accumulated – I have forgotten the exact figure now – almost up to $300,000, $400,000 or half a million.” At that point director Henry Hathaway came on board.
