METHOD to the MADNESS of JERRY LEWIS” – by Mansfield Avenue Productions –
ABOUT “METHOD TO THE MADNESS OF JERRY LEWIS” – by Mansfield Avenue Productions – This film showcases the greatest American comedic genius ever: Jerry Lewis. Jerry is a comedian, actor, film producer, writer, film director, singer, humanitarian, professor, and soon to be a musical theater director. This project is unlike all other documentaries, not only because of Jerry’s uniqueness; it also revolves around his life today while taking a look back at his unparalleled past. At the age of eighty-five, this living legend is as vital now as he has ever been. The Film The film is grounded in the present from start to finish (looking back at his life and career when appropriate). We have pulled from our arsenal of over 50 hours of brand new and original 23.976 fps /1080p HD footage, specifically shot for this project, to explore the life of this comedy superstar from a fresh and unexpected perspective. The foundation of the film consists of recent milestones currently taking place in Jerry’s life. Our filmmaking technique allows the audience to seamlessly look back at his illustrious career without ever breaking the contemporary flow. By incorporating interviews with today’s hottest stars and directors of film, stage and television, one quickly learns of the major impact that Jerry has had, not only on Hollywood, but the entire world. Film Topics Martin & Lewis In 1946, when Jerry Lewis teamed up with a young crooner named Dean Martin, the face of entertainment was forever changed. By ad-libbing together, improvising insults and jokes, squirting seltzer water, and creating a general atmosphere of zaniness, their partnership dominated show business for ten years. -
Ethan De Seife
Ethan de Seife • Assistant Professor of Film Studies • RTVF Department ethandeseife.wordpress.com My recent book, Tashlinesque, investigates the career of Frank Tashlin, an important and overlooked director of very funny and visually inventive American film comedies. I have also written a book on the great film This Is Spinal Tashlin made Looney Tunes cartoons as well as live-action Tap. features with such performers as Bob Hope, Jerry Lewis, and Jayne Mansfield. I like to think that this book goes to 11. All previous studies of Tashlin’s work operate under the assumption that, because he worked in both animation and live-action, Tashlin made cartoons that “anticipate” his live- action features, and that his live-action features are somehow “cartoony.” My book disputes this claim as too simplistic, taking a historical/aesthetic approach to understanding Tashlin’s films. I use several new contexts instead: • Vaudeville history and aesthetics • Economic and censorship policies of the film industry • Performative styles in mid-century Hollywood • Sexual comedy and social satire Within the last 18 months, I have also published articles and delivered talks on a wide range of subjects within film and media studies.

Timeline for World War II — Japan
Unit 5: Crisis and Change Lesson F: The Failure of Democracy and Return of War Student Resource: Timeline for World War II — Japan Timeline for World War II — Japan Pre-1920: • 1853: American Commodore Matthew Perry arrived in Tokyo harbor and forced the Japanese to allow trade with U.S. merchants with threat of military action. • 1858: Western nations forced Japan to sign the Unequal Treaties. These articles established export and import tariffs and the concept of "extraterritoriality" (i.e., Japan held no jurisdiction over foreign criminals in its land. Their trials were to be conducted by foreign judges under their own nation's laws). Japan had no power to change these terms. • 1868: Japan, in an effort to modernize and prevent future Western dominance, ousted the Tokugawa Shogunate and adopted a new Meiji Emperor. The next few decades saw rapid and successful industrialization during the Meiji Restoration. • 1899: With newly gained power from recent industrialization, Japan successfully renegotiated aspects of the Unequal Treaties. • 1899–1901: The Boxer Rebellion led China to a humiliating defeat by the Eight-Nation Alliance of Western powers including the United States and Japan, ceding more territory, and dealing one of the final blows to the struggling Qing Dynasty. • 1904–1905: The Russo-Japanese War began with a surprise attack and ended by an eventual Japanese victory over Imperial Russia. The Japanese took control of Korea. • 1914: During World War I, Japan and other Allies seized German colonial possessions. • 1919: Japan, as a member of the victorious Allies during World War I, gained a mandate over various Pacific islands previously part of the German colonial empire. -
