  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers in Bessemer
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.

  • First Break Surfer Mercury Rising Generation Why a Room for the Past
    First Break Mercury A Room for Generation Surfer Rising the Past Why P. 06 P. 16 P. 48 P. 68 Original Mercury cover, November 1968 MERCURY Dear Members, This issue of Mercury focuses on our different generations and on the connections we feel through the continuum of LAAC’s past, present, and future. From our past, we draw inspiration. The story of Duke Kahanamoku celebrates a life of extraordinary athletic achievement played out against a backdrop of beautiful beaches during a time of remarkable historical transition. The story of Frank Garbutt follows an innovator’s various ventures as they lead him to a lasting legacy in the film industry. These people and many others have left indelible marks on our Club and on our lives. The History Room houses countless artifacts from LAAC’s past, providing tangible representations of our intricate ties to past generations. In the present, we find ourselves and our community. We strive to build connections. We have fun, and we face challenges. We push ourselves to improve. We revel in the “now-ness” of life by throwing dance parties, enjoying passionately prepared meals, and achieving success as part of a team, a club, a community. Whether it’s through a group exercise class, a women’s club, or a champion basketball team, LAAC helps us seize the day. We look to the future with hope and wonder. We build friendships, networks, and organizations that not only fortify ourselves, but also lay foundations for future generations. As we spoke with members of all ages about the Club’s effects on their lives, a prominent and common theme was that of camaraderie.

  • 8 Hollywood Fatherhood: Paternal Postfeminism in Contemporary
    8 Hollywood Fatherhood: Paternal Postfeminism in Contemporary Popular Cinema Hannah Hamad Contemporary Hollywood cinema is rife with representations of fatherhood since paternalised protagonists have become an increasingly and often overwhelmingly omnipresent feature of popular film in the early twenty-first century, while the currency of fatherhood as a defining component of ideal masculinity has emerged as a dominant cultural trope of postfeminism, and a structuring paradigm of mediated masculinity. This chapter addresses articulations of fatherhood in recent popular cinema which are discursively congruent with the sensibilities of postfeminist culture, exploring the ubiquity and centrality of fatherhood as the anchoring trope of the multiplicity of contemporary Hollywood masculinities. The summer of 2002 marked a watershed moment for what subsequently became the pronounced and widespread paternalisation of Hollywood’s cinematic output, when it saw the release of a small but significant cluster of films, all of which conspicuously pushed issues of fatherhood to the discursive fore. The films that comprised this group were Steven Spielberg’s man-on-the-run science-fiction action thriller Minority Report, Sam Mendes’ historical gangster melodrama Road to Perdition, and M. Night Shyamalan’s moody alien invasion drama Signs. All were high grossing and wide releases,1 star vehicles, and genre films. All showcased big name directors, and all featured narratives in which the goal of the protagonist was causally and hyperbolically linked to his fatherhood. Minority Report starred Tom Cruise as John Anderton, a guilt ridden traumatized father, struggling to solve the mystery of his son’s disappearance; Road to Perdition saw Tom Hanks playing against type as widowed single father Mike Sullivan, a small town mobster hit man determined to protect his son from his Chicago enemies after the boy witnesses a murder; and Mel Gibson starred in Signs as lapsed clergyman Graham Hess, a widowed single father protecting his children from malevolent and hostile extra-terrestrials.

  • Ad Litteram Film Folklore and Urban Legends
    FILM • FOLKLORE KOVEN rom Alien to When a Stranger Calls, many fi lms are based on folklore or employ an element of urban legend to propel the narrative. But once folklore aspects within such F fi lms have been identifi ed, do they warrant further scrutiny? In Film, Folklore, and Urban Legends, Mikel J. Koven explores the convergence of folklore with popular cinema FILM, studies, bringing attention to the signifi cance of these intertwined modes of storytelling. Going well beyond the identifi cation of traditional motifs in popular cinema, Koven reveals FILM, FOLKLORE, FILM, FOLKLORE, new paradigms of fi lm analysis that expand through the lens of folklore. In particular, this book focuses on the study of urban legends and how they inspired numerous fi lms. FOLKLORE, This book begins with a general survey of existing literature on folklore and fi lm, predominantly from the perspective of folklore studies. Subsequent chapters address discourses of belief, how urban legends provide the organizing principle of some fi lms, and how certain fi lms “act out” or perform a legend. Movies discussed include Alligator, Candyman, The Curve, URBAN Dead Man on Campus, I Know What You Did Last Summer, Urban Legend, Weekend at AND Bernie’s, and The Wicker Man, as well as zombie fi lms, killer-bee movies, and slasher fi lms, including Black Christmas, The Burning, Halloween, and Terror Train. Koven also devotes attention to such key television shows as The X-Files and Most Haunted. LEGENDS AND In his analysis, Koven explains not only how fi lm and television narratives are built upon preexisting popular culture beliefs but also how those beliefs are recycled back into popular culture.
