S ondra Locke was an actor, producer, director and talented singer. But it was her destiny to be linked forever with Clint Eastwood, whose partner she was from the mid-1970s to the late 1980s. She was a sexy, charismatic performer with a tough, lean look who starred alongside Eastwood in hit movies like The Outlaw Josey Wales, The Gauntlet, Every Which Way But Loose (in which she sang her own songs — also for the sequel Any Which Way You Can) and Bronco Billy. But the pair became trapped in one of the most notoriously toxic relationships in Hollywood history, an ugly, messy and abusive overlap of the personal and professional — a case of love gone sour and mentorship gone terribly wrong. Locke was already married when she met Eastwood — to a gay sculptor called Gordon Leigh Anderson, with whom she had a platonic relationship. She never divorced him and the marriage was still legal throughout her relationship with Eastwood, a fact which undoubtedly counted against her in their painful legal contest. She became a test case and talking-point in America’s sexual politics debate when she sued Eastwood twice, once for “palimony” after their relationship acrimoniously ended, and then a second time for fraud, alleging that the project-development deal Eastwood subsequently set up for her was a trick, designed to buy off the palimony suit and which resulted in no directing jobs. She claimed she had been thrown out of her house by the man she thought was the love of her life. It could well be that Locke was the victim of macho mind games, and her case was an eerie echo of the critic Pauline Kael who was suckered into (temporarily) quitting her job at the New Yorker by Warren Beatty for a similarly unproductive production deal. And Locke was a serious-minded if underused director. Her 1986 fantasy-parable Ratboy (produced by Eastwood) was the subject of much critical bafflement, mockery and head-scratching, but it gained a certain cult status: the LA Times called it a fairy-tale with a cutting edge. It was a bizarre Elephant-Man-type story of a desperate woman (played by Locke herself) who discovers a hybrid creature in a dumpster, part rat, part human, and tries to exploit him/it commercially. It could be that Locke was commenting on the nature of exploitation and that she herself knew what it was like to be hybrid: part sexy female lead, and part serious director whose talents couldn’t be acknowledged in a misogynist business. As for Clint, there was no doubting what Sondra thought. There was no “hybrid”. He was all rat. Earlier, in Josey Wales, she was the young granddaughter of a woman, rescued from Comanches by the revenger Wales. The Gauntlet was a better showcase role for her: she is the prostitute with mob connections whom Eastwood’s hardbitten alcoholic cop has to accompany from Las Vegas to Phoenix to testify in court against the gangsters. She taunts her minder continually: “You really get off roughing up girls, huh?” In the knockabout adventure comedy Every Which Way But Loose, co-starring an orangutan, she plays Lynn, the alluring but duplicitous country singer with whom Eastwood’s character falls in love. She sings her own stuff, including the song Too Loose (“Your love’s too loose and mine is too tight….”). It isn’t often thought of an integral part of the Eastwood canon but this was one of his biggest hits and a vital part of his clout in the industry — that clout, in fact, which Locke thought he was going to use to sponsor her directing career. As for Eastwood, he appeared mildly bemused at the way the orangutan stole the show, but it was all playing sweet music at the box office. Sondra Locke. Photograph: Warner Bros/Kobal/REX/Shutterstock. In Bronco Billy, Locke had what was probably her best role opposite Eastwood: she is the disaffected heiress, Lily, who smokes cigarettes through a holder and loathes her scheming stepmother and who instantly gets a sexual frisson from her encounter with Billy (Eastwood) a former shoe salesman turned pseudo-cowboy who leads a travelling Wild West circus show. She gamely joins up as his assistant. None of the Eastwood films really stretched her, and sadly when it came for her to play the famous singer Rosemary Clooney (aunt of George) in a TV movie in 1982, the songs were dubbed by Rosemary herself. Perhaps the veteran director Alan Rudolph gave her more of a chance in her final film, Ray Meets Helen, from 2017, a moody and elegiac film in which she is an ageing loner who forms a relationship with Keith Carradine’s ex- boxer. Would it have been better for Locke if she had never had a personal relationship with one of Hollywood’s biggest male stars? Maybe. But her portfolio of potential couldn’t easily be fitted into any of the career paths mostly occupied by men. Thread: The elephant vanishes: how a circus family went on the run. The elephant vanishes: how a circus family went on the run. The elephant vanishes: how a circus family went on the run. Dumba has spent her life performing in circuses around Europe, but in recent years animal rights activists have been campaigning to rescue her. When it looked like they might succeed, Dumba and her owners disappeared A0049B84-C2A3-4015-BC59-841C27F840C8.jpeg. O ne day in late September 2020, the Kludsky family � Yvonne, a slim, blond woman in her 60s, her husband, George, who is over 80 but still fit and strong, and their son Martyn � led their elephant up a ramp into the 10-metre trailer that constituted her second home. Dumba went willingly, as always; it was her owners who dragged their feet. The family had spent much of their lives on the road, but this time they did not know how long they would be gone, or if they would ever return. Where did they go and why? In the early 2010s, a Spanish animal rights organisation, Faada, had begun petitioning the Spanish authorities to take Dumba away from the Kludskys, on the basis that it was cruel to keep her in such a small enclosure with no other elephants for company. In 2014, the authorities duly inspected the property and recommended some improvements. The Kludskys, they said, should provide Dumba with shelter and a pond to bathe in, as well as more �environmental enrichment� � or psychological stimulation. Faada staff and volunteers continued to photograph and film Dumba from the Kludskys� perimeter fence. There were further inspections culminating in a visit in July 2018, again commissioned by the authorities, of a team of experts in elephant welfare. They reported that, although Dumba now had a tent, her outdoor enclosure was too small, her shade was inadequate and she still had no bathing pool. Paisley Paver. Paisley Paver is a businesswoman who serves as the CEO of Pave Nature Incorporated. As her company's name suggests, Paisley seeks to "pave over" nature. She relies on her henchman, Rex, to run her fleet of paving machines. Contents. Description. Physical appearance. Paisley is a middle aged woman of notably short stature, with light blonde hair and light green eyes. A businesswoman, her attire consists of a long- sleeved gray suit with a dark grey shirt underneath, as well as a skirt and black heels. She also wears glasses. Personality. Paisley is quite picky, but also very prim and proper. She despises nature, calling it disgusting and panicking over something little as just stepping on soil, and does not generally care for wildlife. Her goal, as she put it, is "to pave all wild places for future generations." She also doesn't like delays or people wasting her time. She wants and expects things to be done on time or early than expected. Background. Paisley Paver makes her first appearance in the episode, " Spirit Bear " as her boat approaches an island inhabited by bears (where the Kratt bros and Aviva happen to be too), wanting to turn it into a mega-storage facility. At there, she gives her henchmen Rex permission to start the pavers, (and also reveals her dislike for nature). In the midst of her progress, she is interrupted by the sudden appearance of Martin Kratt, who stops her from unknowingly flattening a spirit bear cub (named Spirit Jr. by Martin). Finding Martin and Spirit Jr. to be nuisances, she uses an extendable arm feature on her main paver to get them out of the way by capturing them, but Martin is able to warn Chris and Aviva about Paisley Paver's plot.

  • 'Pale Rider' Is Clint Eastwood's First Western Film Since He Starred in and Directed "The Outlaw Josey Wales" in 1976
    'Pale Rider' is Clint Eastwood's first Western film since he starred in and directed "The Outlaw Josey Wales" in 1976. Eastwood plays a nameless stranger who rides into the gold rush town of LaHood, California and comes to the aid of a group of independent gold prospectors who are being threatened by the LaHood mining corporation. The independent miners hold claims to a region called Carbon Canyon, the last of the potentially ore-laden areas in the county. Coy LaHood wants to dredge Carbon Canyon and needs the independent miners out LaHood hires the county marshal, a gunman named Stockburn with six deputies, to get the job done. What neither LaHood nor Stockburn could possibly have taken into consideration is the appearance of the enigmatic horseman and the fate awaiting them. This study guide attempts to place 'Pale Rider' within the Western genre and also within the canon of Eastwood's films. We would suggest that the work on Film genre and advertising are completed before students see 'Pale Rider'. FILM GENRE The word "genre" might well be unfamiliar to you. It is a French word which means "type" and so when we talk of film genre we mean type of film. The western is one particular genre which we will be looking at in detail in this study guide. What other types of genre are there in film? Horror is one. Task One Write a list of all the different film genres that you can think of. When you have done this, try to write a list of genres that you might find in literature.

Hanes1 1Pesquisador Autônomo, Niterói, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil Abstract: Since the mythic space of the Western helped shape how Americans view themselves, as well as how the world has viewed them, the characterization of Native American, Hispanic, and Anglo interaction warrants closer scrutiny. For a corpus with substantial diachrony, every Western in the National Registry of Films produced between the end of the Second World War and the American Bicentennial (1945-1976), i.e. the cultural apex of the genre, was assessed for the presence of foreign language and interpretation, the relationship between English and social power, and change over time. The analysis showed that although English was universally the language of power, and that the social status of characters could be measured by their fluency, there was a significant presence of foreign language, principally Spanish (63% of the films), with some form of interpretation occurring in half the films. Questions of cultural identity were associated with multilingualism and, although no diachronic pattern could be found in the distribution of foreign language, protagonism for Hispanics and Native Americans did grow over time. A spectrum of narrative/cinematic approaches to foreign language was determined that could be useful for further research on the presentation of foreigners and their language in the dramatic arts.

  • AN ABSTRACT of the THESIS of Brad D. Foster for the Degree of Master of Arts in English Presented on July 16, 2007. Title
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Brad D. Foster for the degree of Master of Arts in English presented on July 16, 2007. Title: Constructing a Heroic Identity: Masculinity and the Western Film Abstract approved: ____________________________________________________________________ Jon Lewis This thesis employs the study of gender to demonstrate how recent Hollywood western films have constructed a hero that is reflective of contemporary beliefs regarding masculinity. Beginning with a New Historicist approach at studying gender, this work first considers the construction of masculinity in post World War II America and traces the evolution of the western hero’s masculinity from its iconic state in the 1950’s through it trial during second wave feminism, its rebuilding during the Reagan years, and its refinement within recent Hollywood films. This thesis considers each period of western films as a representation and reflection of its current culture, and as a result ultimately argues that the western genre has recently endeavored to perpetuate the conservative cultural view that a marital union is the ideal in contemporary American society. In tracing the progression of masculinity in the western hero, through cultural and textual readings, this thesis concludes that today’s paragon of the masculine western hero is more subject to domesticity and as such is more likely than its 1950s predecessors to accept marital living. © Copyright by Brad D.

Rastro y huella de Bronco Billy IGNACIO GAZTAKA EGUSKIZA Universidad del País Vasco (UPV/EHU Resumen El western, en su calidad de mito, evoca una época que, gracias a la admiración que ha suscitado por parte del público, ha logrado huir del olvido. Este análisis cinematográfico centra su objeto de estudio en el filme Bronco Billy de Clint Eastwood (1980). Se ha seguido la línea histórica de este mítico cowboy que nos ha llevado a los orígenes del propio arte cinematográfico. Más tarde este personaje renacería gracias a James Rokos, antes de caer en manos de Eastwood. El western parece saber adaptarse a los mensajes y propósitos que directores de diferentes épocas y contextos pretenden lanzar al público, empleando personajes históricos nacidos del vientre de este género cinematográfico. Palabras clave: Cine, western, Bronco Billy, Clint Eastwood, análisis cinematográfico About the cowboy's quixotic myth recovery. Trace and footprint of Bronco Billy Abstract The western, as a myth, evokes an era that, thanks to the admiration it has aroused by the public, has managed to escape from oblivion. This film analysis focuses his studio object on Clint Eastwood's 1980 film Bronco Billy. The historical line of this mythical cowboy that has led us to the origins of cinematic art itself has been followed. Later this character would be reborn thanks to James Rokos, before falling into Eastwood's hands. The western seems to know how to adapt to the messages and purposes that directors from different eras and contexts intend to launch to the public, employing historical characters born from the womb of this film genre.
