Signed __________________________________ Date ____________________________________ 2 ABSTRACT This thesis reassesses the years 1945-1955 as a hingepoint in British culture, a moment when literature, film and art responded to the wartime hiatus of consumer capitalism by resisting the turn towards conspicuous consumption and self- commodification. This resistance can be discerned in a gothic impulse in post-war culture, in which uncanny encounters with haunted, recalcitrant or overassertive objects proliferated, and provided a critique of the subject/object relationship on which consumerism was predicated. In the opening chapter, the ubiquity of bombsite rubble is brought into dialogue with mid-century mural painting both in literature and at the Festival of Britain.

  • A Salute to the National Film Archive, British Film Institute
    The Museum of Modern Art Department of Film 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel: 212-708-9400 Cable: MODERNART Telex: 62370 MODART ENTRANCE at 18 W. 54 release #10 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE A SALUTE TO THE NATIONAL FILM ARCHIVE, BRITISH FILM INSTITUTE April 29 - May 19, 1983 In celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the British Film Institute, and as part of the city-wide "Britain Salutes New York" Festival, The Department of Film of The Museum of Modern Art and The National Film Archive of the British Film Institute will co-present 18 programs of films culled from the London archive. The three-week series, to be screened in MoMA's Roy and Niuta Titus Theater 2 from April 29 through May 19, 1983, will include an eclectic sampling of British films preserved by the National Film Archive. The series will'include such classics as Alfred Hitchcock's 1926 The Lodger, Laurence Olivier's Henry V (1944), Alexander Korda's Rem­ brandt (1936) with Charles Laughton in the title role, E.A. Dupont's Piccadilly (1929), also starring Laughton with Anna May Wong, and, in a newly restored color print, Herbert Wilcox's 1937 Victoria the Great. The series will feature some exciting rediscoveries as well, among them Laburnum Grove (1936), an early Carol Reed comedy from the J.B. Priestley play, and Victor Saville's elegant First a Girl (1935), starring Jessie Matthews and taken from the same source as Blake Edwards's recent Victor/Victoria. Other programs include the directorial debut of writers Frank Launder and Sidney Gilliat with their 1943 wartime drama, Millions Like Us, to be shown in its original version for the first time in the U.S.; John and Roy Boulting's tense and low-key thriller, Seven Days to Noon (1950); and No Funny Business, a 1933 trifle (in its abbreviated 1951 reissue version) in which Laurence Olivier watches Gertrude Lawrence play the piano in a most unusual fashion.

  • War Cinema– Or How British Films Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Affluent Society
    1 THE PROFESSIONAL OFFICER CLASS IN POST- WAR CINEMA– OR HOW BRITISH FILMS LEARNED TO STOP WORRYING AND LOVE THE AFFLUENT SOCIETY A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Andrew Roberts College of Business, Arts and Social Sciences of Brunel University 22nd September2014 2 ABSTRACT My central argument is that mainstream British cinema of the 1951 – 1965 period marked the end of the paternalism, as exemplified by a professional ‘officer class’, as consumerism gradually came to be perceived as the norm as opposed to a post-war enemy. The starting point is 1951, the year of the Conservative victory in the General Election and a time which most films were still locally funded. The closing point is 1965, by which point the vast majority of British films were funded by the USA and often featured a youthful and proudly affluent hero. Thus, this fourteen year describes how British cinema moved away from the People as Hero guided by middle class professionals in the face of consumerism. Over the course of this work, I will analyse the creation of the archetypes of post-war films and detail how the impact of consumerism and increased Hollywood involvement in the UK film industry affected their personae. However, parallel with this apparently linear process were those films that questioned or attacked the wartime consensus model. As memories of the war receded, and the Rank/ABPC studio model collapsed, there was an increasing sense of deracination across a variety of popular British cinematic genres. From the beginning of our period there is a number films that infer that the “Myth of the Blitz”, as developed in a cinematic sense, was just that and our period ends with films that convey a sense of a fragmenting society.

  • The University of Liverpool the REPRESENTATION OF
    The University of Liverpool THE REPRESENTATION OF COMMUNISM IN POST-WAR BRITISH FILM, THEATRE AND ART 1945-63 Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of The University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Jacqueline Clulow August 2012 Abstract In contrast to previous cold war studies which have focussed on propaganda and the cultural contest between the USA and USSR, this thesis demonstrates how British film, theatre, and art marginalised communism, and by association political radicalism, through the reinforcement of dominant negative stereotypes. This thesis examines how largely negative portrayals of communism reflected the views of their creators: individuals and groups who were not part of the official state apparatus, but were illustrating their own perception of the communist threat. It is therefore a cultural examination of the visual portrayal of a political ideology within British film, theatre and art. Through the use of recognisable stereotypes, communism was demonised through a variety of guises: from aggressive and sinister domestic militants through to the portrayal of communism as being ‘un-British’ and a challenge to traditional values and beliefs. Although such anti-communist representations were dominant, more sympathetic portrayals gradually emerged, such as the naive, the gullible or those simply disillusioned and seeking change. Through a determined eclectic analysis of a broad range of sources from film, theatre and art this thesis will show that domestic concerns dominate in all three media. An in-depth look at the CPGB, the Artists Group and Realism, will demonstrate that British communism had no positive cultural influence within the media considered, leaving any sympathetic portrayals down to individuals.

  • British National Cinema
    British national cinema With films as diverse as Bhaji on the Beach, The Dam Busters, Mrs Miniver, Trainspotting, The Draughtsman's Contract, and Prick Up Your Ears, twentieth- century British cinema has produced wide-ranging notions of British culture, identity and nationhood. British National Cinema is a comprehensive introduction to the British film industry within an economic, political and social context. Describing the development of the British film industry, from the Lumière brothers’ first screening in London in 1896 through to the dominance of Hollywood and the severe financial crises which affected Goldcrest, Handmade Films and Palace Pictures in the late 1980s and 1990s, Sarah Street explores the relationship between British cinema and British society. Using the notions of ‘official’ and ‘unofficial’ cinema, the author demonstrates how British cinema has been both ‘respectable’ and ‘disreputable’ according to the prevailing notions of what constitutes good cinema. British National Cinema analyses the politics of film and establishes the difficult context within which British producers and directors have worked. Sarah Street questions why British film-making, production and distribution have always been subject to government apathy and financial stringency. In a comparison of Britain and Hollywood, the author asks to what extent was there a 'star system' in Britain and what was its real historical and social function. An examination of genres associated with British film, such as Ealing comedies, Hammer horror and 'heritage' films, confirms the eclectic nature of British cinema. In a final evaluation of British film, she examines the existence of 'other cinemas': film-making which challenges the traditional concept of cinema and operates outside mainstream structures in order to deconstruct and replace classical styles and conventions.
