Eyewitness Illustrations I. Author’s Eyewitness Historical-Context Introduction written July 29, 2007 Revealing the Iconography of Drummer: When James Dean Met Marlon Brando, Heath Ledger, and Jake Gyllenhaal Marlon Brando: “Stella!” James Dean: “You’re tearing me apart.” Jake Gyllenhaal to Heath Ledger: “I wish I knew how to quit you.” As soon as we teenagers invented and liberated our tortured selves in the pop culture of the deadly dull 1950s, my leather bomber jacket morphed in meaning from “play clothing” to teen symbol. I was swept up by the movie Blackboard Jungle (1955) and its theme song, Bill Haley’s “Rock around the Clock,” which was played every ten minutes on the radio because no other white rock-n-roll songs yet existed. At the same instant, I found my first lover in James Dean, in his jackets, his motorcycle, his face, his attitude, his verite. When he was killed at age twenty-four on September 30, 1955, I was sixteen, a junior in high school, and stricken with grief. Even though I was in the Catholic seminary and was a sexually pure boy, art and literature and movies cancelled my chances of being paro- chial.

A Comparative Commentary on Frank O'hara's “In Memory of My Feelings
ORNATE AND EXPLOSIVE GRIEF A COMPARATIVE COMMENTARY ON FRANK O’HARA’S “IN MEMORY OF MY FEELINGS” AND “TO HELL WITH IT”, INCORPORATING A SUBSTANTIAL GLOSS ON THE SERPENT IN THE POETRY OF PAUL VALÉRY, AND A THEORETICAL EXCURSUS ON ORNATE POETICS. Sam Ladkin Abstract: Frank O’Hara’s “In Memory of My Feelings” and “To Hell with It” are read consecutively to make a comparative point about the lessons of the first poem being taken up in the challenges of the second. Essays on the influence of Paul Goodman’s theory of grief and anger and Byron’s ecstatic elegy provide a theoretical groundwork for a close, comparative reading of the serpent in the poetry of Paul Valéry and O’Hara. An excursus on the ornate and ornamental offers a broader theoretical account for my readings. A commentary on “To Hell with It” is divided into close readings and digressions on the work of Mayakovsky, Shelley, Rimbaud, and the Tutivillus. 189 GLOSSATOR 8 190 LADKIN – ORNATE AND EXPLOSIVE GRIEF CONTENTS 1.

Como tal, o foco será no trabalho desenvolvido pelo realizador com o ator Marlon Brando no filme On the Waterfront (Há Lodo no Cais, 1954), e com o ator James Dean em East of Eden (A Leste do Paraíso, 1955). De modo a explorar o conceito de “Method Acting” como uma abordagem à formação de atores, foi primeiro necessário conhecer o seu predecessor o “System”. -
