    Films from the THIRTIES: PART II 1935-39

    t% The Museum of Modern Art 1] West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 245-3200 Cable: Modernart No. 83 FOR RELEASE: Friday, August 25, I968 Films from THE THIRTIES: PART II 1935-39 The Museum of Modern Art, will present a retrospective of films from the thirties beginning August 23, and running through October 6. The Thirties, according to Willard Van Dyke, Director of the Department of Film, will consist of 39 pictures, representing some of the richest creative talent in American cinema at a time that has been called "the dear, dead days not beyond recall." Two years ago the Museum presented The Thirties, U.S.A., Part I, covering the first half of the decade. The films being shown now as Part II were made from 1935 ^^ 193 '• Among the pictures to be shown are: Frank Capra's "Lost Horizon"; Paul Muni in "The Life of Emile Zola," the Story of a Northern Jew's lynching in the South; the great thriller "Night Must Fall," an adaptation of the Emlyn Williams play starring Robert Montgomery; and "The Good Earth," a spectacle film in black and white, from Pearl Buck's popular novel, for which Luise Rainer won her second Academy Award, with Paul Muni in the starring role. The latter part of the thirties was characterized by further achievements in the musical film, largely due to the talents of Fred Astaire, who with Ginger Rogers starred in "Top Hat," and "Shall We Dance," both of which are in the retrospective. The most important contributions to the annals of films made in the thirties was the series of "snowball" comedies Hollywood turned out at a time of grim, economic hardships.

  • Closest Equivalent to Restoration Comedy”

    Closest Equivalent to Restoration Comedy”

    American Movies’ ”Closest Equivalent to Restoration Comedy” By Oliver Tilley Fall 2009 Issue of KINEMA ”IT MAY BE AMERICAN MOVIES’ CLOSEST EQUIVALENT TO RESTORATION COMEDY” (Pauline Kael on Bringing Up Baby) I will attempt to ascertain the accuracy of Pauline Kael’s comment. It is a difficult issue, demanding a telescoping of two distinctive cultures, nations and media as well as an exploration of the concept of genre and intertextuality. In many ways Kael’s assertion - written, as she herself attests ’hurriedly’, being ’frequently dependent on [her] old, spotty memories’(1) - is superficial and breaks down after analysis. Her comparison is flawed in its assumptions that genres can contain such diverse works as they denote, over a fifty-year period on the one hand and a 10 year period on the other; while the idea that these genres can then be parallelled with each other is yet further problematic. Despite this, Kael’s perhaps unthinking observation proves a worthwhile area to explore and reach beyond the surface qualities of tone and style on which she seems to base her assessment. Kael, in her conversation with Ann Geracimos in 1969 concerning the ’Woman Reading’, discusses how much she loves reading, how it is her ’favourite’ pastime and how she could ’live without movies much more easily than [she] could live without books’(2). During her conversation with Geracimos, Kael details a large variety of books, ranging from Nabokov to Synge, which she had read or which she had found compelling, with, significantly, no mention of Restoration Comedy. It is still possible that she had deeply exploredthe genre and simply not thought to mention her interest during this interview, but it offers the provocative suggestion that she has never read, and only cursorily seen, any of the plays.

  • Clark Gable ~ 27 Films

    Clark Gable ~ 27 Films

    3 Clark Gable ~ 27 Films William Clark Gable was born on 1 February 1901 in Cadiz, Ohio, to William Henry and Adeline Gable. When he was seven months old, his mother died and his father, an oil-well driller, sent him to live with his maternal aunt and uncle in Pennsylvania, where he stayed until he was two, after which his father fetched him back to Cadiz. At 16, Gable quit school and worked at an Akron, Ohio, tyre factory until, after seeing the play The Bird of Paradise, he decided to become an actor. He toured in stock companies, worked oil fields and sold neckties. In December 1924, he married his acting coach Josephine Dillon, fifteen years his senior. The pair moved to Hollywood so Gable could further his acting career. A number of small silent film and stage roles followed. In April 1930, the marriage ended in divorce. A year later, Gable married Maria Langham, also about seventeen years his senior. While working in the theatre, Gable became a lifelong friend of prominent and influential thespian Lionel Barrymore. Despite several failed screen tests for Barrymore and Darryl Zanuck, in 1930 Gable was signed by MGM. After a small part in The Painted Desert (1931), Joan Crawford asked for him as co-star with her in Dance, Fools, Dance (also 1931). In the same year, the public loved his manhandling of Norma Shearer in A Free Soul. His unshaven lovemaking with Jean Harlow in Red Dust (1932) made him MGM's most important star, after which his acting career flourished.

Of the few actors that I have known who had the genius, I admired most Jack Barrymore . he was the greatest actor of my time. —Ben Hecht (A Child of the Century 431) • SPIRING ACTRESS MILDRED PLOTKA—Carole Lombard—is crying. Theatrical impresario Oscar Jaffe—John Barrymore—has broken A her down. Poor Mildred is to play Mary Jo Calhoun in Jaffe’s lat- est production, Hearts of Kentucky. In this play, she is to assume the stage moniker “Lily Garland,” the dreamt-up name of the star Jaffe would like Miss Plotka to become. But she can’t get the cry right. Blocking and directing her movements on the stage with zig-zagging chalk, Jaffe has made sure Mildred knows where to stand. But she doesn’t yet know how to project her voice and body theatrically. When her character’s character is to react to her father’s death, Lombard raises her hands to her throat and gazes up at the heavens with a subtlety only a film camera could register.
