It argues that the tune’s history and accumulated use in films enabled Hollywood to employ it in an increasingly com- plex manner to evoke essential questions about female sexuality, class, and race. Recent critical writing on American cinema has focused attention on the struc- tures of racial coding of gender and on the ways in which moral transgressions are routinely characterized as “black.” As Eric Lott points out in his analysis of race and film noir: “Raced metaphors in popular life are as indispensable and invisible as the colored bodies who give rise to and move in the shadows of those usages.” Lott aims to “enlarge the frame” of work conducted by Toni Morrison and Ken- neth Warren on how “racial tropes and the presence of African Americans have shaped the sense and structure of American cultural products that seem to have nothing to do with race.”1 Specifically, Lott builds on Manthia D iawara’s argument that “film is noir if it puts into play light and dark in order to exhibit a people who become ‘black’ because of their ‘shady’ moral behaviour.2 E.

  • Steinhart Runaway Hollywood Chapter3
    Chapter 3 Lumière, Camera, Azione! the personnel and practices of hollywood’s mode of international production as hollywood filmmakers gained more experience abroad over the years, they devised various production strategies that could be shared with one another. A case in point: in May 1961, Vincente Minnelli was preparing the production of Two Weeks in Another Town (1962), part of which he planned to shoot in Rome. Hollywood flmmaker Jean Negulesco communicated with Minnelli, ofering some advice on work- ing in Italy, where Negulesco had directed portions of Tree Coins in the Fountain (1954) and Boy on a Dolphin (1957) and at the time was producing his next flm, Jessica (1962): I would say that the most difcult and the most important condition of mak- ing a picture in Italy is to adapt yourself to their spirit, to their way of life, to their way of working. A small example: Tis happened to me on location. As I arrive on the set and everything is ready to be done at 9 o’clock—the people are having cofee. Now, your assistant also is having cofee—and if you are foolish enough to start to shout and saying you want to work, right away you’ll have an unhappy crew and not the cooperation needed for the picture. But if you have cofee with them, they will work for you with no time limit or no extra expense.1 Negulesco’s letter underscores a key lesson that Hollywood moviemakers learned overseas when confronted with diferent working hours, production practices, and cultural customs.

  • February (Gypsy)
    Gypsy is a 1959 musical with music by Jule Styne, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, and a book by Arthur Laurents. Gypsy is loosely based on the 1957 memoirs of Gypsy Rose Lee, the famous striptease artist, entitled Gypsy: Memoirs of America’s Most Celebrated Stripper and focuses on her mother, Rose, whose name has become synonymous with "the ultimate show business mother." Gypsy tells the story of the dreams and efforts of one hungry, powerhouse of a woman to get her two daughters into show business. It follows the dreams and efforts of Rose to raise two daughters to perform onstage and casts an affectionate eye on the hardships of show business life. The character of Louise is based on Lee, and the character of June is based on Lee's sister, the actress June Havoc. Gypsy is famous for helping launch lyricist Stephen Sondheim’s career, and features a book by Arthur Laurents that is widely considered to be one of the classic examples of a traditional “book musical.” At the heart of the musical is the gregarious Rose, whose journey made critic Frank Rich call Gypsy, “Broadway’s own brassy, unlikely answer to King Lear.” The musical features songs that have become standards of the musical theatre canon, including “Some People,” “Let Me Entertain You,” “Rose’s Turn,” and the show-stopping “Everything’s Coming Up Roses”. It is frequently considered one of the crowning achievements of the mid-twentieth century's conventional musical theatre art form. Gypsy has been referred to as the greatest American musical by numerous critics and writers, among them Ben Brantley who wrote ”what may be the greatest of all American musicals...".

Simpson, the producer Rita Moreno: Zelda Zanders, Lina's friend Douglas Fowley: Roscoe Dexter, the hysterical director Cyd Charisse: Dancer in "Broadway Melodies" fantasy Background on the Film Singin’ in the Rain is nearly a documentary of the American cinema at a particularly fraught point in its history: as it made the transition from the silent film to the sound film in 1926. It represents the three subsystems that made up the classic studio system: the star system, the system of genre films, and the factory system of production. It is one of the premier genres that derived from that transition to sound: the film musical. It also documents a picture of the film industry that includes the audience as well as people behind the screen. The film shows us that exhibition as well as production is an important part of the film industry. Singin’ in the Rain illustrates the qualities of the classical Hollywood narrative: the moral nature of the characters, the dramatization of their conflicts, the organization of plot events, and the resolution of the story are all typical of classical Hollywood films. For all these reasons, it serves as a fitting culmination to this course; it is a reflexive film that allows us to meditate on Hollywood, cinema in general, and the particular films and concepts we have studied throughout this semester.

  • VINCENTE MINNELLI Biography
    American MovieMakers VINCENTE MINNELLI Biography "Basically, I work to please myself," Vincente Minnelli wrote in his autobiography, I Remember It Well. "But I'm the hardest person to please that I know. I'm not an artist in the classical sense. I'm still not sure if movies are an art form. And if they're not, let them inscribe on my tombstone what they could about any craftsman who loves his job: 'Here Lies Vincente Minnelli. He died of hard work.1" Vincente Minnelli (1903-86) was a unique filmmaker who combined special affinities for composition, color, and visual detail with an innate sensitivity and sophistication to create some of Hollywood's most memorable and dazzling films. From his film directorial debut in 1943 with Cabin in the Sky (1943) -- an all-black musical featuring Ethel Waters, Lena Home, Eddie (Rochester) Anderson, and Louis Armstrong -- to such musical classics as Meet Me in St. Louis (1944), An American in Paris (1951), The Band Wagon (1953), and Gigi (1958), the dramas Lust for Life (1956) and The Bad and the Beautiful (1953), and the comedies The Long, Long Trailer (1954) and Father of the Bride (1950), Minnelli put his special stamp on a treasured and unequaled movie legacy. "I approach each film as an entirely new experience growing out of the particular material involved," he once said. "Musical, romantic comedy or tragic drama, each contains different aspects of the same basic problem. That is, to tell a story through characters, dialogue, sometimes through dance or pantomime, in a manner as nearly unique for that particular film as ability, resourcefulness, and inspiration will permit.
