  • The Thin Man
    THE THIN MAN Screenplay by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett Based on the novel by Dashiell Hammett Shooting Draft, 1935 Property of M.G.M FADE IN: EFFECT SHOT: THE SHADOW OF THE THIN MAN! The shadow, grotesquely thin, is cast by one strong light which reflects itself against a white cement wall. When we first see the shad-ow, it is standing upright, examining some- thing which it holds in its hands. Now the shadow bends down and as it does so, CAMERA PULLS BACK TO REVEAL CLYDE WYNANT in his work-shop. He is a tall, thin man of about fifty-five, with white hair. He has a fine, sensi- tive face. He is a very successful inventor. A man who is capable of sudden fits of anger which he forgets almost immediately, but which are quite terrifying while they last. Just now he is utterly absorbed in what he is doing -- working on a delicately-wired part which has to do with a new form of combustion engine that he has invented. (Through the entire scene, from the first shadow effect, we hear the engine in operation as he is working over it.) Wynant is dressed in overalls, and possibly a long shade over his eyes. The shop itself is in the base- ment of a small warehouse building, in the thirties between First Avenue and the East River, in New York. It is a long and narrow machine shop, full of interest and character in its mechanical layout. Miniatures of engine-models of various kinds -- vats of molten lead -- carbon racks -- welding instruments -- delicate light bulbs, and such other apparatus as composes a combination shop and laboratory of this machine type.

  • William Powell ~ 23 Films
    William Powell ~ 23 Films William Horatio Powell was born 29 July 1892 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. In 1907, he moved with his family to Kansas City, Missouri, where he graduated from Central High School in 1910. The Powells lived just a few blocks away from the Carpenters, whose daughter Harlean also found success in Hollywood as Blonde Bombshell Jean Harlow, although she and Powell did not meet until both were established actors. After school, Powell attended New York City's American Academy Of Dramatic Arts. Work in vaudeville, stock companies and on Broadway followed until, in 1922, aged 30, playing an evil henchman of Professor Moriarty in a production of Sherlock Holmes, his Hollywood career began. More small parts followed and he did sufficiently well that, in 1924, he was signed by Paramount Pictures, where he stayed for the next seven years. Though stardom was elusive, he did eventually attract attention as arrogant film director Lev Andreyev in The Last Command (1928) before finally landing his breakthrough role, that of detective Philo Vance in The Canary Murder Case (1929). Unlike many silent actors, the advent of sound boosted Powell's career. His fine, urbane voice, stage training and comic timing greatly aided his successful transition to the talkies. However, not happy with the type of roles he was getting at Paramount, in 1931 he switched to Warner Bros. His last film for them, The Kennel Murder Case (1933), was also his fourth and last Philo Vance outing. In 1934 he moved again, to MGM, where he was paired with Myrna Loy in Manhattan Melodrama (1934).

  • GSC Films: S-Z
    GSC Films: S-Z Saboteur 1942 Alfred Hitchcock 3.0 Robert Cummings, Patricia Lane as not so charismatic love interest, Otto Kruger as rather dull villain (although something of prefigure of James Mason’s very suave villain in ‘NNW’), Norman Lloyd who makes impression as rather melancholy saboteur, especially when he is hanging by his sleeve in Statue of Liberty sequence. One of lesser Hitchcock products, done on loan out from Selznick for Universal. Suffers from lackluster cast (Cummings does not have acting weight to make us care for his character or to make us believe that he is going to all that trouble to find the real saboteur), and an often inconsistent story line that provides opportunity for interesting set pieces – the circus freaks, the high society fund-raising dance; and of course the final famous Statue of Liberty sequence (vertigo impression with the two characters perched high on the finger of the statue, the suspense generated by the slow tearing of the sleeve seam, and the scary fall when the sleeve tears off – Lloyd rotating slowly and screaming as he recedes from Cummings’ view). Many scenes are obviously done on the cheap – anything with the trucks, the home of Kruger, riding a taxi through New York. Some of the scenes are very flat – the kindly blind hermit (riff on the hermit in ‘Frankenstein?’), Kruger’s affection for his grandchild around the swimming pool in his Highway 395 ranch home, the meeting with the bad guys in the Soda City scene next to Hoover Dam. The encounter with the circus freaks (Siamese twins who don’t get along, the bearded lady whose beard is in curlers, the militaristic midget who wants to turn the couple in, etc.) is amusing and piquant (perhaps the scene was written by Dorothy Parker?), but it doesn’t seem to relate to anything.

Translating Nancy Drew from Print to Film Diana Beeson and Bonnie Brennen ~ ~ ancy Drew has the distinction of remaining a teenager over a ~ ~ span of more than six decades. She sprang Athena-like out of the head of Edward Stratemeyer in 1930, but her stout heart and generous mind were steeled by Mildred Wirt Benson, who wrote twenty-three of the first thirty books in the series. Nancy, however, was not the creative ideation of a single set of parents. During her sixty-five years as a teenage sleuth, a multitude of authors have assumed the pen name Carolyn Keene, writing new mysteries and revising the old ones, to maintain Nancy's status as a contemporary of her reading public. This essay looks at the changing Nancy Drew as her character shifts over time on the pages of her books and as her characteriza­ tion undergoes treatment by Hollywood. It focuses specifically on the second book in the series, The Hidden Staircase (1930), written by Benson. A film of the same name was released in 1939, and some twenty years later, in 1959, Simon & Schuster issued a revised and updated version of the book.
