Hollywood Chinese by Erica Marcus Published: April 10, 2008
Hollywood Chinese By Erica Marcus Published: April 10, 2008 Hollywood Chinese: A Very Queer Story An Interview with Filmmaker Arthur Dong Filmmaker Arthur Dong, who created Coming Out Under Fire, Licensed to Kill, Family Fundamentals and other LGBT films, has finished a new film Hollywood Chinese, a vivid and entertaining journey tracking the experience of Chinese Americans in America’s film industry. The film opens in the Bay Area on April 11 at San Francisco’s Sundance Kabuki Cinemas and at Oakland’s Grand Lake Theater. A San Francisco native, Arthur Dong Whowould have thought that it would be a heterosexual Chinese recently spoke to Bay Times about the director (Ang Lee) to bring the a great gay love story (Brokeback film. Mountain) to the silver screen. (Bay Times) So, you’re going to be at the screening in San Francisco on Friday and in Oakland on Saturday. You’ve assembled one hell of a cast - Ang Lee, Wayne Wang, Joan Chen, David Henry Huang, B.D. Wong, Nancy Kwan, Amy Tan and Fu Man Chu. But I gotta ask - is it a queer film? (Arthur Dong) Am I queer? No, I mean is the film, Hollywood Chinese, queer? That’s the answer. Am I queer? Ah ha! So there. Okay, identity politics is so passé. You got me, but now I’m curious. Do you believe that a queer sensibility is embedded in one’s vision? I believe that my films are embedded with my vision and I happen to be a gay man. I’m not saying all gay people produce gay products, but I do. -

Jami Attenberg, Nata Nel 1971, Vive a Booklyn Ed È Autrice Di Quattro Romanzi
Jami Attenberg, nata nel 1971, vive a Booklyn ed è autrice di quattro romanzi. Laureata alla John Hopkins University, collabora con riviste e giornali tra cui il New York Times, il Wall Street Journal e Nerve. I Middlestein è il suo primo romanzo pubblicato in Italia ed è stato scelto tra i finalisti del L.A. Times Book Prize, dopo esser stato tradotto in 9 lingue. Scrive Jonathan Franzen di questo romanzo: «I Middlestein mi hanno conquistato fin dalle prime pagine, e una volta giunto alle ultime ho ammirato la compassione di Jami Attenberg e la sua maestria nel saper raccontare una storia». Il suo quinto libro, Saint Mazie, uscirà nelle librerie nel 2015. Yossi Berg e Oded Graf sono due coreografi e ballerini israeliani che condividono, oltre ad una compagnia, l'infaticabile lavoro nella danza dal 2005. In passato hanno lavorato con coreografi dal calibro di Yasmeen Godder e si esibiscono con compagnie di fama mondiale, come la Batsheva Dance Company e DV8 Physical Theatre, e amano mescolare la loro magistrale fisicità con la ricerca dinamica della recitazione, del testo e della voce, incontrando le realtà sociali e politiche della vita contemporanea. Nonostante mantengano solide basi in Israele e in Danimarca, Berg e Graf portano le loro opere nei festival e nei teatri più prestigiosi, tra cui il Montpellier Danse, l'American Dance Festival, il Madrid En Danza, il Kultur Festival di Stoccolma, il Place Theater di Londra e il MaMa di New York City. Al Festival Internazionale di Letteratura e Cultura Ebraica si esibiranno con il loro capolavoro Heroes. -

ABSTRACT Stereotypes of Asians and Asian Americans in the U.S. Media
ABSTRACT Stereotypes of Asians and Asian Americans in the U.S. Media: Appearance, Disappearance, and Assimilation Yueqin Yang, M.A. Mentor: Douglas R. Ferdon, Jr., Ph.D. This thesis commits to highlighting major stereotypes concerning Asians and Asian Americans found in the U.S. media, the “Yellow Peril,” the perpetual foreigner, the model minority, and problematic representations of gender and sexuality. In the U.S. media, Asians and Asian Americans are greatly underrepresented. Acting roles that are granted to them in television series, films, and shows usually consist of stereotyped characters. It is unacceptable to socialize such stereotypes, for the media play a significant role of education and social networking which help people understand themselves and their relation with others. Within the limited pages of the thesis, I devote to exploring such labels as the “Yellow Peril,” perpetual foreigner, the model minority, the emasculated Asian male and the hyper-sexualized Asian female in the U.S. media. In doing so I hope to promote awareness of such typecasts by white dominant culture and society to ethnic minorities in the U.S. Stereotypes of Asians and Asian Americans in the U.S. Media: Appearance, Disappearance, and Assimilation by Yueqin Yang, B.A. A Thesis Approved by the Department of American Studies ___________________________________ Douglas R.

For more information contact [email protected] 1 Politicising Stardom: Jane Fonda, IPC Films and Hollywood, 1977-1982 James Michael Rafferty Queen Mary, University of London Thesis submitted for the qualification of Doctorate of Philosophy (PhD) 2 Abstract This thesis is an empirical analysis of Jane Fonda’s films, stardom, and political activism during the most commercially successful period of her career. At the outset, Fonda’s early stardom is situated in relation to contemporaneous moral and political ideologies in the United States and how she functioned as both an agent and symbol of these ideologies. Her anti-war activism in the early-1970s constituted the apex of Fonda’s radicalisation and the nadir of her popular appeal; a central question of this thesis, therefore, is how her stardom was rehabilitated for the American mainstream to the point of becoming Hollywood’s most bankable actress. As the star and producer of IPC Films, Fonda developed political projects using commercial formats, namely Coming Home (1978), The China Syndrome (1979), Nine to Five (1980), and Rollover (1981).
