  • Hitchcock in the Forties Marshall Deutelbaum, Coordinator and Presenter
    WALLA Spring, 2015 Hitchcock in the Forties Marshall Deutelbaum, Coordinator and Presenter Rope (Transatlantic Pictures / Warner Bros., 1948) 81 min. James Stewart (Rupert Cadell); John Dall (Brandon Shaw); Farley Granger (Phillip Morgan); Dick Hogan (David Kentley); Sir Cedric Hardwicke (Mr. Henry Kentley); Constance Collier (Mrs. Anita Atwater); Douglas Dick (Kenneth Lawrence); Joan Chandler (Janet Walker). Hitchcock’s Rope, based on Patrick Hamilton’s play of 1929, “Rope’s End,” was the first production of the company formed by Hitchcock and Sidney Bernstein. Initially adapted by Hume Cronin, Arthur Laurents wrote the final script, Americanizing the English play which was thought to have been based most likely on the kidnapping and thrill murder in Chicago some five years earlier of 14 year old Bobby Franks by Nathan Leopold, Jr. and Richard Loeb. Rather than simply a thrill killing, Brandon Shaw and Phillip Morgan murder David Kentley at the beginning of the film as an intellectual exercise in Nietzschean philosophy as taught to them by Rupert Cadell. To satisfy the censorial demands of the Production Code, the homosexual relationship between Brandon and Phillip is never explicitly mentioned, though it remains a subtext in the drama. Rope is Hitchcock’s most experimental film. Restricted after the opening shot to a single set, it mostly consists of unedited long takes lasting as long as ten minutes. To create the illusion that the film is unedited, Hitchcock hid the few moments where one long take is edited to the next by moving the camera into a close-up of a man’s dark jacket or some other object in order to black out the screen momentarily during the change of shot.

    Harbin_Text.qxd 12/3/2004 12:50 PM Page 248 After King Lear, Laughton’s health deteriorated drastically. Once home in the United States, he suffered with gall bladder problems, followed by a heart attack. When he recovered suf‹ciently, he began ‹lming Advise and Consent (1962), directed by Otto Preminger. Laughton played Seab Cooley, the homophobic southern senator, with subtlety, “creat[ing] a Laughton character at once sly and childlike, devious and amusing, ruthless and 248 charming” (Higham, 226). Ill throughout ‹lming, Laughton neverthe- less later attempted a reading tour with Bruce Ashe but had to be hospi- talized after a fall in the bath. Doctors discovered cancer, which soon became pervasive. Laughton was ›own home and died in Los Angeles on December 15, 1962. See S. Callow, Charles Laughton: A Dif‹cult Actor, London, 1987; K.

  • Production Long Takes
    Rope (1948) is a film written by Hume Cronyn and Arthur Laurents, produced and directed by Alfred Hitchcock, starring James Stewart, John Dall and Farley Granger. It is the first of Hitchcock's Technicolor films, and is notable for taking place in real time and being edited so as to appear as a single continuous shot through the use of long takes. The film was based on the play Rope by Patrick Hamilton, which was said to be inspired by the real-life murder of fourteen-year-old Bobby Franks in 1924 by two University of Chicago students named Leopold and Loeb who simply wanted to show that they could commit a murder and get away with it. However, they were both arrested and received long prison terms. Production The film is one of Hitchcock’s most experimental and "one of the most interesting experiments ever attempted by a major director working with big box-office names" [2] , abandoning many standard film techniques to allow for the long unbroken scenes. Each shot ran continuously for up to ten minutes without interruption. It was shot on a single set, aside from the opening establishing shot street scene. Camera moves were planned in advance and there was almost no editing. The walls of the set were on rollers and could silently be moved out of the way to make way for the camera, and then replaced when they were to come back into shot. Prop men also had to constantly move the furniture and other props out of the way of the large Technicolor camera, and then ensure they were replaced in the correct location.

  • Laurents, Arthur (1917-2011) by Raymond-Jean Frontain
    Laurents, Arthur (1917-2011) by Raymond-Jean Frontain Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Playwright, librettist, screenwriter, and director, Arthur Laurents brought an independent sensibility to some of the most important works of stage and screen in the post-World War II era. He dared to live openly with a male lover in Hollywood when the studios insisted upon the appearance of sexual conformity. And, in a prime example of what theorist Wayne Koestenbaum has termed "male double writing," Laurents collaborated with such major gay talents as Stephen Sondheim, Leonard Bernstein, Jerry Herman, Harvey Fierstein, and Jerome Robbins on musicals that challenged audiences to accept an unorthodoxy that goes against the grain of the American success myth. Asked by a judgmental American spinster to justify the dishonesty required for his extramarital affairs, the courtly Renato Di Rossi in Laurents' The Time of the Cuckoo (1952) replies simply, "I am in approval of living." So was Laurents. Laurents was born July 14, 1917 in the Flatbush section of Brooklyn to middle-class Jewish parents from whom he inherited socialist leanings. Following graduation from Cornell University, Laurents served during World War II in an army film production unit in Astoria where he wrote scripts designed to educate servicemen going overseas, as well as radio plays intended to foster civilian support for the war. The success of Laurents' first commercially produced play, Home of the Brave (1945)--written in nine days and critically applauded for addressing the issue of anti-Semitism in the armed forces--encouraged him to move to Hollywood, then in its heyday.
