  • Lacon 1 Film Program
    BY WAY OF INTRODUCTION This film program represents for the most part an extremely personal selection by me, Bill Warren, with the help of Donald F. Glut. Usually convention film programs tend to show the established classics -- THINGS TO COME, METROPOLIS, WAR OF THE WORLDS, THEM - and, of course, those are good films. But they are seen so very often -- on tv, at non-sf film programs, at regional cons, and so forth -- that we decided to try to organize a program of good and/or entertaining movies that are rarely seen. We feel we have made a good selection, with films chosen for a variety of reasons. Some of the films on the program were, until quite recently, thought to be missing or impossible to view, like JUST IMAGINE, TRANSATLANTIC TUNNEL, or DR JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE. Others, since they are such glorious stinkers, have been relegated to 3 a.m. once-a-year tv showings, like VOODOO MAN or PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE. Other fairly recent movies (and good ones, at that) were, we felt, seen by far too few people, either due to poor distribution by the releasing companies, or because they didn't make enough money to ensure a wide release, like TARGETS or THE DEVIL'S BRIDE. Still others are relatively obscure foreign films, a couple of which we took a sight-unseen gamble on, basing our selections on favorable reviews; this includes films like THE GLADIATORS and END OF AUGUST AT THE HOTEL OZONE. And finally, there are a number of films here which are personal favorites of Don's or mine which we want other people to like; this includes INTERNATIONAL HOUSE, MAD LOVE, NIGHT OF THE HUNTER, RADIO RANCH, and SPY SMASHER RETURNS.

  • The Hollywood Art Director
    The Museum of Modern Art 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modernart NO. 36 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MUSEUM EXHIBITION SPOTLIGHTS ART DIRECTORS Kane's Xanadu, Scarlett's Tara, Rebecca's Manderly, Dr. Franken­ stein's laboratory—these and many other indelible images sprang from the drawing board of the Hollywood art director. Since the birth of the art form some sixty years ago, the art director has been the archi­ tect of our movie dreams--and, ironically, the most anonymous of all the craftsmen who have contributed crucially to film art. Now, in an exhibition entitled DESIGNED FOR FILM: THE HOLLYWOOD ART DIRECTOR, The Museum of Modern Art is spotlighting the art director's achievement through more than 100 sketches, matte paintings, storyboards, and film stills. The exhibition, which is on view in the Auditorium Gallery from May 11 through September 26, was directed by Mary Corliss, Curatorial Assistant, Department of Film; and designed by Kathleen Haven. Carlos Clarens acted as Consultant. The source of much of Hollywood's spectacular glamour will be on display in this exhibition—from an early sketch for the Babylonian sequence from D.W. Griffith's "Intolerance," through designer William Cameron Menzies' continuity sketches for "Gone With the Wind," to a six-foot panorama of Imperial Rome made by art director John de Cuir for "Cleopatra." Design styles range from the super-realistic (George Jenkins' meticulous plan for the Washington Post newsroom in "All the President's Men") to the surrealistic (Salvador Dali's design of the dream sequence in Hitchcock's "Spellbound").

    ART DIRECTORS GUILD TO INDUCT THREE ADDITIONAL LEGENDARY PRODUCTION DESIGNERS INTO ITS HALL OF FAME ON FEBRUARY 4, 2012 LOS ANGELES, September 12, 2011 —Three legendary Production Designers will be inducted into the Art Directors Guild Hall of Fame at the Guild’s 16th Annual Excellence in Production Design Awards ceremony to be held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on February 4, 2012. The Guild’s Council has named Production Designers Robert Boyle, William Darling and Alfred Junge as its latest Hall of Fame inductees. In making the announcement, ADG President, Thomas A. Walsh, said, “This continues to be a proud moment for our Guild as we look to the past so we may build the bridges to our future. The ADG Hall of Fame recognizes the many achievements of those artists who created and evolved the unique discipline of art direction for the moving image. Their creative legacy continues to inspire and challenge all of those who have chosen the art of production design as their profession and it is appropriate that we honor their memory through their induction into the ADG Hall of Fame.” Nominations for the 16th Annual ADG Awards will be announced on January 4, 2012. On awards night, February 4, the ADG will present winners in nine competitive categories for theatrical films, television productions, commercials and music videos along with the Guild’s lifetime achievement award to production designer Tony Walton and another soon to be announced for Outstanding Contribution to Cinematic Imagery. For the third consecutive year Paula Poundstone is set to host this year’s show, which is themed to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Guild.

  • The Influence of the Exposition Des Arts Décoratifs Et Industriels Moderne, Paris 1925 on Hollywood Films
    The Influence of The Exposition des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Moderne, Paris 1925 on Hollywood Films of the Late 1920s and 30s by Ann Rishell A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Approved June 2014 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Beverly Brandt, Chair Diane Bender Gray Sweeney ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY August 2014 ABSTRACT Abstract The Influence of The Exposition des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes, Paris 1925, on Hollywood films of the late 1920s and 30s Ann Snyder Rishell Arizona State University The author explores the influences on the interiors of Hollywood films of the late 1920s and 30s. The Exposition des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes, Paris 1925 is examined in historical context and its influence on design trends internationally. The Hollywood film industry is examined, in general, and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and its longtime art director, Cedric Gibbons, in particular. Eight MGM films are discussed and their interiors analyzed for related influence from the 1925 Paris Exposition. The thesis makes a case for the influence of the 1925 Paris Exposition on Cedric Gibbons and the interiors of the MGM films of the late 1920s and 30s. i DEDICATION To my wonderful husband, Mike Rishell, who believed and encouraged me the whole long way. And to my creative daughter, Juliette Sabine, who amazes me every day. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to acknowledge all the people who have helped me through the thesis process. My brother-in-law, Mike Gebert, who, through late night talks after all the kids were put to bed helped form the germ of an idea that became this thesis.
