For more information, please contact [email protected]. EDDIE MURPHY IN THE CUT: RACE, CLASS, CULTURE, AND 1980S FILM COMEDY by GAIL A. MCFARLAND Under the Direction of Lia T. Bascomb, PhD ABSTRACT Race, class, and politics in film comedy have been debated in the field of African American culture and aesthetics, with scholars and filmmakers arguing the merits of narrative space without adequately addressing the issue of subversive agency of aesthetic expression by black film comedians. With special attention to the 1980-1989 work of comedian Eddie Murphy, this study will look at the film and television work found in this moment as an incisive cut in traditional Hollywood industry and narrative practices in order to show black comedic agency through aesthetic and cinematic narrative subversion. Through close examination of the film, Beverly Hills Cop (Brest, 1984), this project works to shed new light on the cinematic and standup trickster influences of comedy, and the little recognized existence of the 1980s as a decade that defines a base period for chronicling and inspecting the black aesthetic narrative subversion of American film comedy.

Tobacco Control Policy Making: United States
UCSF Tobacco Control Policy Making: United States Title Tobacco product placement and its reporting to the Federal Trade Commission Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7kd981j3 Authors Polansky, Jonathan R Glantz, Stanton A, PhD Publication Date 2016-07-01 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Tobacco product placement and its reporting to the Federal Trade Commission Jonathan R. Polansky Onbeyond LLC, Fairfax, California Stanton A. Glantz, PhD University of California, San Francisco ___________________________ University of California, San Francisco This publication is available at www.escholarship.org/uc/item/7kd981j3 July 2016 Tobacco product placement and its reporting to the FTC | 2 Summary of findings The historical record strongly suggests that asking tobacco companies to report their product placement activities and expenditures did not capture all activity in this area. This report compares expenditures for product placement described in internal documents from American Tobacco, Brown & Williamson, Liggett & Myers, Philip Morris and RJ Reynolds tobacco companies with reports the companies were required to submit to the US Federal Trade Commission in the “endorsements and testimonials” category of cigarette promotion and advertising. During that time, in their internal documents, American Tobacco, Brown & Williamson, Philip Morris and RJ Reynolds, or their contracted product placement agents, listed 750 motion pictures as engaged for product placement, 600 of which were released widely to theaters (Appendix). Substantial discrepancies exist between product placement spending described in the internal industry records and the spending reported to the Federal Trade Commission in the “endorsements and testimonials” category. Nearly half (47 percent; $2.3 million of about $5 million) of spending for on-screen product placement described in internal industry records between 1978 and 1994 was not reported in to the FTC in the “endorsements and testimonials” category.

Murphy's Lore Guile Beats the System and in the Meantime Teaches Those Tight-Asses in Authority a Thing Or Two About Humanity and 'Real' Values
PREVIEW Andrea Stuart on Hollywood's streetwise screen success Murphy's Lore guile beats the system and in the meantime teaches those tight-asses in authority a thing or two about humanity and 'real' values. If Harlem Nights dies at the box-office, it will be vir- tually the first of Mr Mur- phy's projects to do so. From the moment he stole the show from veteran Hollywood lead- ing man, Nick Nolte, in his first film 48 Hours, Murphy has been the undisputed King of Comedy. His films have grossed more than a billion dollars and Beverly Hills Cop, the movie that launched his career into the stratosphere alongside Sly Stallone and Clint Eastwood, is the highest-earning come- dy of all time. With Eddie Murphy, other- wise known as 'Eddie Mo- ney', 'Big Money' or just plain 'Money' to his friends, it hasn't been just a case of everything he touches turn- ing to gold; more a case of turning to platinum (includ- ing his single Party All The Time, which got to No 2 in the American charts). Even his turkeys, like Golden Child - 'a piece of shit' is how Mur- phy described it - can't help making mullah, in that instance $100m-worth. This unprecedented cross- over appeal has meant in- evitably that his films have In Harlem Nights, Eddie Murphy plays alongside his idol Richard Pryor been heavily scrutinised. Black critics and right-on 'Eeeh-eeh-eeh-eeeh.' For a US for plagiarism over the moments play on the central white folk have often res- man whose laugh is arguably storyline of an earlier film.

Belknap Collection for the Performing Arts - the AFRICAN-AMERICAN CINEMA COLLECTION
AFRICAN-AMERICAN CINEMA CINEMA AFRICAN-AMERICAN CINEMA The history of the African-American Cinema is a harsh timeline of racism, repression and struggle contrasted with film scenes of boundless joy, hope and artistic spirit. Until recently, the study of the "separate cinema" (a phrase used by historians John Kisch and Edward Mapp to describe the segregation of the mainstream, Hollywood film community) was limited, if not totally ignored, by writers and researchers. The uphill battle by black filmmakers and performers, to achieve acceptance and respect, was an ugly blot on the pages of film history. Upon winning his Best Actor Oscar for LILLIES OF THE FIELD (1963), Sidney Poitier accepted, on behalf of the countless unsung African-American artists, by acknowledging the "long journey to this moment." This emotional, heartbreaking and inspiring journey is vividly illustrated by the latest acquisition to the Belknap Collection for the Performing Arts - THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN CINEMA COLLECTION. The valuable research material, housed in this collection, includes over 300 pressbooks (illustrated campaign and advertising catalogs sent to theatre owners), press kits (media packages including biographies, promotional essays and illustrations), programs and over 1000 photographs and slides. The journey begins with the blatant racism of D.W. Griffith's THE BIRTH OF A NATION (1915), a film respected as an epic milestone, but reviled as the blueprint for black film stereotypes that would appear throughout the 20th century. Researchers will follow African-American films through an extended period of stereotypical casting (SONG OF THE SOUTH, 1946) and will be dazzled by the glorious "All-Negro" musicals such as STORMY WEATHER (1943), ST.LOUIS BLUES (1958) and PORGY AND BESS (1959).

TIMELINE OF INDEPENDENT CINEMA and the AMERICAN NEW WAVE PRECURSORS TO AMERICAN NEW WAVE 1954 Roger Coran directs The Monster From the Ocean Floor for independent producers James Nicholson and Samuel Arkoff, for $10,000. Starts a production relationship of low budget, quickly made films and independent distribution that continues until 1970 1956 American International Pictures formed in 1956 from American Releasing Corporation by James H. Nicholson and Samuel Z. Arkoff, dedicated to releasing independently produced, low-budget films, primarily of interest to the teenagers of the 1950s. Nicholson and Arkoff served as executive producers while Roger Corman and Alex Gordon were the principal film producers and, sometimes, directors. 1957 John Cassavetes shoots Shadows. 1957 Louis B. Mayer, legendary head of MGM and founder of Studio Star system dies. Marking in part the end of the old Hollywood moguls 1961 Method actor and maverick auteur film-maker John Cassavetes' low-budget, black and white, non-Hollywood studio film Shadows, was his first directorial effort - deliberately created as a contrast to Hollywood's studio system. The self-financed, self-distributed cinema verite film (initially shot in 1957) with a jazzy score was a story about an inter-racial couple. It was first publically screened in 1958, but then withdrawn and reshots in 1959, and then re- released - first to European audiences and then to US audiences in 1961. Shot on 16-mm film and using a non-professional cast and crew, the improvisational film symbolized the emergence of the New American Cinema movement, and inspired the growth of underground films and other independent ("indie") and personal works.
