The three performances that I examine are: George M. Cohan’s production of Little Johnny ii Jones (1904), Eleanor Powell’s “Tribute to Bill Robinson” in Honolulu (1939), and Terry- Toons’ cartoon, “The Dancing Shoes” (1949). These performances share an obvious move away from the use of blackface makeup within a minstrel context, and a move towards the masked enjoyment in “black culture” as it contributes to the development of a uniquely American form of entertainment. In bringing these three disparate performances into dialogue I illuminate the many ways in which American entertainment has been built upon an Africanist aesthetic at the same time it has generally disparaged the black body.

  • Yankee Doodle Dandy, Starring Jimmy Cagney As Playwright George M
    ALL EARS!! The Litchfield Fund Weekly Newsletter “We just don’t hear it on the street, we have our ears spread across all the fields!!!!!” During the first half of the 20th century, Americans received most of their news from newspapers & magazines. Weekly magazines like Life, Time & The Saturday Evening Post might arrive by mail, but a regular stop at the newsstand was part of most people’s lives! During the first week of July, 1942, by request of FDR, all of the U.S. magazines patriotically displayed an American Flag on their cover*. Of course by 1942, the movie industry was churning out patriotic movies, which that year included Yankee Doodle Dandy, starring Jimmy Cagney as playwright George M. Cohan & as his wife Mary, the beautiful redhead Joan Leslie. Yankee Doodle Gal: Miss Leslie, one of our favorite actresses, passed away recently at age 90. She often played the young ingénue in WWII movies & besides the somewhat fictionalized account of Mr. Cohan’s life, appeared in many patriotically inspired movies such as Sergeant York, The Sky’s the Limit, This is the Army, Thank Your Lucky Stars & Hollywood Canteen. After the war, she fought Warner Brothers for better roles, eventually breaking her contract. She moved on to independent productions & early television. She retired to focus on raising her young twin daughters, taking occasional TV roles into the 1990s! Watching Yankee Doodle Dandy on TV was a Fourth of July family tradition growing up! The nearly 30-year old movie was inspiring then & remains so today. The Fourth was always this little boy’s favorite holiday, for the same reason as Mr.

  • 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.

  • MICHAEL CURTIZ: from HUNGARY to HOLLYWOOD Release
    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release November 1992 MICHAEL CURTIZ: FROM HUNGARY TO HOLLYWOOD November 27, 1992 - January 23, 1993 A survey of more than fifty films by Michael Curtiz (1888-1962), one of cinema's most prolific directors from the studio era, opens on November 27, 1992, at The Museum of Modern Art. As Warner Bros, house director in the 1930s and 1940s, Curtiz symbolizes the crispness and energy that distinguished the Warners' style. On view through January 23, 1993, MICHAEL CURTIZ: FROM HUNGARY TO HOLLYWOOD explores the consistent quality and versatility of the filmmaker's work. The Hungarian-born Curtiz mastered virtually all genres and, during his twenty-seven-year career at Warner Bros., made every type of film from westerns and musicals to social dramas and comedies. A strong director of actors, he made stars of such disparate types as Errol Flynn, John Garfield, and Doris Day, and earned an Academy Award and a renewed career for Joan Crawford in Mildred Pierce (1945). Many of his films were popular critical and financial successes. Curtiz possessed an acute narrative sense, displayed in such remarkable films included in the exhibition as The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938), with Flynn and Olivia de Havilland; Casablanca (1942), for which Curtiz received an Academy Award for Best Director; Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942), the musical which won James Cagney an Academy Award; Mildred Pierce, the film noir portrait of an imperfect American family; Young Man with a Horn (1950), starring Kirk - more - 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019-5498 Tel: 212-708-9400 Cable: MODERNART Telex: 62370 MODART 2 Douglas as an obsessed jazz trumpeter and inspired by Bix Beiderbecke's life; and The Breaking Point (1950), based on Ernest Hemingway's To Have and Have Not, His early successes -- Cabin in the Cotton (1932), a melodrama about sharecroppers, and The Mystery of the Max Museum (1933), an early all-color horror film -- are also included in the exhibition.

Its name was changed to honour one Adam Fergusson, who was despatched from Scotland in the 1820s and 30s to study the immigration potential of the area. He and his business partner bought land and built the first house in 1833. Fergus was named not only for himself but for Fergus, King of Scotland.
