The Films of Allan Dwan Ik NO. 29 The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release iWest 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modernart PIONEER FILM DIRECTOR HONORED BY MUSEUM OF MODERN ART Allan Dwan, at 86 one of America's oldest living directors and with over 400 films to his credit, will be honored with a five-week film re­ trospective beginning March 4 at The Museum of Modern Art. The series, assembled by Peter Bogdanovich, a filmmaker himself, spans 45 years of the director's career, from the 1912 film "The Fear" to "The River's Edge," a 1957 Western and one of Dwan's last films. Mr. Bogdanovich is the author of the new book AJ_J[a^nJDwanj^_jni_e_Jj_a^st_ published by Praeger concurrently with the Museum series. Allan Dwan has directed such noted stars as Gloria Swanson, Douglas Fairbanks, Sr., Victor McLaglen, Wallace Beery, Shirley Temple and John Wayne. Some of his most well-known pictures, included in the Museum tribute, are "Robin Hood," a 1922 film with Douglas Fairbanks, Sr. ; "The Iron Mask" (1929), also starring Fairbanks; "Suez" (1938), the epic with Tyrone Power and Loretta Young; and "The Sands of Iwo Jima" (1949), the war film for which John Wayne received his first Oscar nomination. Allan Dwan, who has worked in many genres, began his career in motion pictures almost by accident. An engineer, he designed special lights for the Essanay Studio in Chicago and was supervising their use on the set, when he learned that the studio paid $25 for scripts. He began writing with such success that he was asked to be Essanay' s scenario editor. Arriving on a set in Arizona to supply some scripts, he found that the director had left town and was soon notified by Essanay that he was to direct. This was in 1909 and Dwan stayed with the job for more than half a century. Dwan's early films, such as "Three Million Dollars" (1911), his (more) -2- 11 fortieth one-reeler, are technically very simple—each scene is recorded from a fixed position and there is a minimum of cutting. By 1913, how­ ever, he felt the influence of D. W. Griffith and began to cut within scenes and introduce much greater flexibility. Dwan himself has acknow­ ledged his debt to Griffith; "The only man I ever watched was Griffith, and I just did what he did. It was a wonderful, successful thing to do." Dwan came up with numerous solutions to technical problems himself, and Bogdanovich credits him with the invention of the dolly shot in 1915. "Robin Hood" (1922), starring Douglas Fairbanks, Sr., remains one of Dwan' s greatest films. Robert E. Sherwood, the playwright, then a film critic, wrote at the time "It represents the high-water mark of film production. " Dwan had a very close association with the two leading stars of the 20s, Fairbanks and Gloria Swanson. "Manhandled," a 1924 film starring Miss Swanson, will be shown at the Museum. It is a comedy romance with an outstanding performance by the leading lady. While he has always felt that sound detracted from what he considers a uniquely visual medium, Dwan made the transition to talkies with success. Given little opportunity in the mid-thirties to work with superior material, the success of two Shirley Temple films he directed—"Heidi" and "Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm —" led to his assignment to direct "Suez," a 1938 adventure story built around the construction of the Suez Canal, and a film which remains one of his best. After making a number of successful comedies in the forties, he switched genres with his usual ability and closed out the decade with the successful "The Sands of Iwo Jima," a war film starring John Wayne. Dwan continued working actively until the early 60s. His films are marked by expressive but unpretentious camera work; a sense of humor which pokes fun at pretense; and a focus on simple people.

  • The Black Tent
    The Black Tent (1956) and Bengazi (1955): The Image of Arabs in Two Post-Empire Journeys into the Deserts of Libya Richard Andrew Voeltz [email protected] Cameron University Volume 7.1 (2018) | ISSN 2158-8724 (online) | DOI 10.5195/cinej.2018.200 | http://cinej.pitt.edu Abstract These two little known films are both part of the cycle of post-imperial films dealing with the decline of the British Empire. They are perhaps the only films set in or near the historical period of the British Military Administration of Libya after 1945. The Black Tent frequently gets lumped in with the genre of World War II British war films. Bengazi marks the cinematic journey of the actor Victor McLaglen from The Lost Patrol (1934) to Bengazi (1955), his career encapsulating the beginning and end of the Hollywood British Empire film genre. Both films contain redemptive dramatic journeys into the deserts of Libya involving the loss of British imperial male power. The case studies of The Black Tent and Bengazi show the beginnings of new post-empire film genres and new mentalities toward the Arab “Other” that partially promotes a decolonization of western cinema.

Pilot Season by Kelly Cousineau An undergraduate honorsrequirements thesis submitted for the degree in partial of fulfillment of the Bachelor of Arts in University Honors and Film Thesis Adviser William Tate Portland State University 2014 Abstract In the 1930s, two historical figures pioneered the cinematic movement into color technology and theory: Technicolor CEO Herbert Kalmus and Color Director Natalie Kalmus. Through strict licensing policies and creative branding, the husband-and-wife duo led Technicolor in the aesthetic revolution of colorizing Hollywood. However, Technicolor's enormous success, beginning in 1938 with The Wizard of Oz, followed decades of duress on the company. Studios had been reluctant to adopt color due to its high costs and Natalie's commanding presence on set represented a threat to those within the industry who demanded creative license. The discrimination that Natalie faced, while undoubtedly linked to her gender, was more systemically linked to her symbolic representation of Technicolor itself and its transformation of the industry from one based on black-and-white photography to a highly sanctioned world of color photography.

  • Native Americans and World War II
    Reemergence of the “Vanishing Americans” - Native Americans and World War II “War Department officials maintained that if the entire population had enlisted in the same proportion as Indians, the response would have rendered Selective Service unnecessary.” – Lt. Col. Thomas D. Morgan Overview During World War II, all Americans banded together to help defeat the Axis powers. In this lesson, students will learn about the various contributions and sacrifices made by Native Americans during and after World War II. After learning the Native American response to the attack on Pearl Harbor via a PowerPoint centered discussion, students will complete a jigsaw activity where they learn about various aspects of the Native American experience during and after the war. The lesson culminates with students creating a commemorative currency honoring the contributions and sacrifices of Native Americans during and after World War II.
