  • Lonely Places, Dangerous Ground
    Introduction Nicholas Ray and the Potential of Cinema Culture STEVEN RYBIN AND WILL SCHEIBEL THE DIRECTOR OF CLASSIC FILMS SUCH AS They Live by Night, In a Lonely Place, Johnny Guitar, Rebel Without a Cause, and Bigger Than Life, among others, Nicholas Ray was the “cause célèbre of the auteur theory,” as critic Andrew Sarris once put it (107).1 But unlike his senior colleagues in Hollywood such as Alfred Hitchcock or Howard Hawks, he remained a director at the margins of the American studio system. So too has he remained at the margins of academic film scholarship. Many fine schol‑ arly works on Ray, of course, have been published, ranging from Geoff Andrew’s important auteur study The Films of Nicholas Ray: The Poet of Nightfall and Bernard Eisenschitz’s authoritative biography Nicholas Ray: An American Journey (both first published in English in 1991 and 1993, respectively) to books on individual films by Ray, such as Dana Polan’s 1993 monograph on In a Lonely Place and J. David Slocum’s 2005 col‑ lection of essays on Rebel Without a Cause. In 2011, the year of his centennial, the restoration of his final film,We Can’t Go Home Again, by his widow and collaborator Susan Ray, signaled renewed interest in the director, as did the publication of a new biography, Nicholas Ray: The Glorious Failure of an American Director, by Patrick McGilligan. Yet what Nicholas Ray’s films tell us about Classical Hollywood cinema, what it was and will continue to be, is far from certain. 1 © 2014 State University of New York Press, Albany 2 Steven Rybin and Will Scheibel After all, what most powerfully characterizes Ray’s films is not only what they are—products both of Hollywood’s studio and genre systems—but also what they might be.

  • SFSFF 2018 Program Book
    elcome to the San Francisco Silent Film Festival for five days and nights of live cinema! This is SFSFFʼs twenty-third year of sharing revered silent-era Wmasterpieces and newly revived discoveries as they were meant to be experienced—with live musical accompaniment. We’ve even added a day, so there’s more to enjoy of the silent-era’s treasures, including features from nine countries and inventive experiments from cinema’s early days and the height of the avant-garde. A nonprofit organization, SFSFF is committed to educating the public about silent-era cinema as a valuable historical and cultural record as well as an art form with enduring relevance. In a remarkably short time after the birth of moving pictures, filmmakers developed all the techniques that make cinema the powerful medium it is today— everything except for the ability to marry sound to the film print. Yet these films can be breathtakingly modern. They have influenced every subsequent generation of filmmakers and they continue to astonish and delight audiences a century after they were made. SFSFF also carries on silent cinemaʼs live music tradition, screening these films with accompaniment by the worldʼs foremost practitioners of putting live sound to the picture. Showcasing silent-era titles, often in restored or preserved prints, SFSFF has long supported film preservation through the Silent Film Festival Preservation Fund. In addition, over time, we have expanded our participation in major film restoration projects, premiering four features and some newly discovered documentary footage at this event alone. This year coincides with a milestone birthday of film scholar extraordinaire Kevin Brownlow, whom we celebrate with an onstage appearance on June 2.

    MoMA CELEBRATES 10 YEARS OF RIALTO PICTURES WITH 17-FILM RETROSPECTIVE Series by Leading Distributor of Classic Repertory Cinema Spotlights Some of the Finest Filmmaking Talents Such as Robert Bresson, Luis Buñuel, Federico Fellini, Jean- Luc Godard, and Jean-Pierre Melville Rialto Pictures: Reviving Classic Cinema July 25–August 10, 2007 The Roy and Niuta Titus 1 and 2 Theaters NEW YORK, June 26, 2007—Celebrating a decade of titles issued by Rialto Pictures, The Museum of Modern Art presents a 17-film survey from the distributor’s catalogue of extraordinary cinema. Rialto Pictures: Reviving Classic Cinema, presented July 25 through August 10, 2007, in The Roy and Niuta Titus 1 and 2 theaters, includes some of the most acclaimed films produced over the past six decades. These classics of cinema include Jules Dassin’s stylish and taut heist film Rififi (1955), Carol Reed’s memorable film noir thriller The Third Man (1949), and Jean-Pierre Melville’s powerful depiction of French Resistance fighters in L’armée des ombres (Army of Shadows, 1969), which was released in the United States for the first time in 2006, to wide critical acclaim. The exhibition is organized by Laurence Kardish, Senior Curator, Department of Film, The Museum of Modern Art. In 1997, film programmer and curator Bruce Goldstein established Rialto Pictures, a company dedicated to invigorating classic cinema by ensuring that it continued to be viewed, as originally intended, on the big screen. Since then Goldstein, in conjunction with his partner Adrienne Halpern, has released almost 40 fresh, and often restored, 35mm prints of classic foreign films with new English subtitles not seen in theaters since their original runs, and has premiered films never before distributed in America.
