  • Film Reviews Jonathan Lighter
    Film Reviews Jonathan Lighter Lebanon (2009) he timeless figure of the raw recruit overpowered by the shock of battle first attracted the full gaze of literary attention in Crane’s Red Badge of Courage (1894- T 95). Generations of Americans eventually came to recognize Private Henry Fleming as the key fictional image of a young American soldier: confused, unprepared, and pretty much alone. But despite Crane’s pervasive ironies and his successful refutation of genteel literary treatments of warfare, The Red Badge can nonetheless be read as endorsing battle as a ticket to manhood and self-confidence. Not so the First World War verse of Lieutenant Wilfred Owen. Owen’s antiheroic, almost revolutionary poems introduced an enduring new archetype: the young soldier as a guileless victim, meaninglessly sacrificed to the vanity of civilians and politicians. Written, though not published during the war, Owen’s “Strange Meeting,” “The Parable of the Old Man and the Young,” and “Anthem for Doomed Youth,” especially, exemplify his judgment. Owen, a decorated officer who once described himself as a “pacifist with a very seared conscience,” portrays soldiers as young, helpless, innocent, and ill- starred. On the German side, the same theme pervades novelist Erich Maria Remarque’s All Quiet on the Western Front (1928): Lewis Milestone’s film adaptation (1930) is often ranked among the best war movies of all time. Unlike Crane, neither Owen nor Remarque detected in warfare any redeeming value; and by the late twentieth century, general revulsion of the educated against war solicited a wide acceptance of this sympathetic image among Western War, Literature & the Arts: an international journal of the humanities / Volume 32 / 2020 civilians—incomplete and sentimental as it is.

  • Spider-Man: Homecoming’
    Audi MediaInfo Culture & Trends Communications Christian Günthner Phone: +49 841 89-48356 E-mail: [email protected] www.audi -mediacenter.com/en Audi A8 in disguise as surprise guest at the world premiere of ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ Audi figurehead car in Spider-Man camouflage on the red carpet in Los Angeles Leading actor Tom Holland as a VIP passenger Official presentation of the Audi A8 on July 11 at Audi Summit in Barcelona Los Angeles/Ingolstadt, June 29, 2017 – Wednesday night the new Audi A8* could be seen in Los Angeles alongside many Hollywood stars at the world premiere of ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming.’ Tom Holland, who stars as Peter Parker / Spider-Man, was chauffeured down the red carpet at the TCL Chinese Theatre. Meanwhile, Robert Downey Jr. and Jon Favreau arrived together in a black Audi R8 Spyder*. Normally, Audi’s Technical Development team conceals their secret prototypes with a special adhesive foil with a camouflaged pattern of black and white swirls. However, this time Audi Design developed a new camouflage foil with a Spider-Man design specifically for the appearance on the red carpet at the world premiere of ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’. The traditional swirl design has been modified to incorporate spider webs on the vehicle doors and within the signature rings. Even before its official world premiere, the first glimpses of the Audi A8’s can be seen on the big screen in ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ – viewers can see parts of the front and side designs in the film. In addition, moviegoers also get to see Audi AI Traffic Jam Pilot in action when Happy Hogan drives Peter Parker and momentarily removing his hands from the wheel.

Juli auf Audi Summit in Barcelona Ingolstadt, 13. Juni 2017 – Noch vor seiner offiziellen Weltpremiere kommt der neue Audi A8 ins Kino. Das Flaggschiff der Premiummarke hat einen Gastauftritt im Marvel- Blockbuster „Spider-Man: Homecoming“. Damit sind Kinofans die ersten, die die Luxuslimousine bei der Filmpremiere am 28. Juni in Los Angeles zu Gesicht bekommen. Tom Holland lässt sich in dem Marvel-Blockbuster als „Peter Parker“ von Bodyguard „Happy Hogan“ (Jon Favreau) im neuen Audi A8 L chauffieren. In der Filmszene sind Teile des Front- und Seitendesigns der neuen Limousine zu sehen. Ausserdem bekommen die Kinogänger einen Eindruck vom hochautomatisierten Fahren in Stausituationen: „Happy“ nimmt während der Fahrt seine Hände vom Lenkrad. Dank aktiviertem Audi AI Staupilot übernimmt der Audi A8 die Fahraufgabe, das Lenkrad dreht sich wie von Geisterhand weiter. Neben dem A8 haben zwei weitere Audi-Modelle Gastauftritte in dem neuen Spielfilm: Tony Stark setzt traditionell auf den Audi R8 V10 Spyder, während „Peter Parker“ selbst im Audi TTS Roadster unterwegs ist. Offiziell präsentiert Audi den neuen A8 am 11. Juli 2017 auf dem Audi Summit (www.summit.audi) in Barcelona der Öffentlichkeit. „Spider-Man: Homecoming“ mit dem neuen Audi A8 startet am 13.

    “WE CAN’T EVEN PLAY OURSELVES”: MIXED-RACE ACTRESSES IN THE EARLY TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI'I AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN AMERICAN STUDIES AUGUST 2017 By Valerie M. Lo Dissertation Committee: Robert Perkinson, Chairperson Mari Yoshihara Jonna Eagle Konrad Ng Jonathan Okamura Keywords: Mixed race, Ambiguity, Post-Racial, Color-blind, Film ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This project has been a test of my resiliency and grew from my desire to add a small contribution to the ongoing discussion of mixed race representations in film and television. Many people have come into my life in the last several years and encouraged my studies, talked excitedly with me, and subtly (or blatantly) pushed me to continue when I thought the road ahead looked too ominous. In 2005, at San Francisco State University’s Asian American Studies banquet, my Master’s thesis chair, Wei Ming Dariotis, remarked that a PhD was in the stars for me. Those words stayed close to me during my graduate work at the University of Hawai'i. My first teaching assistantship with Isabelle Peluad at San Francisco State University in Asian American Literature showed me exactly what I wanted to immerse myself in for the rest of my life. Graduate courses with Russell Jeung and Madeline Hsu reaffirmed my desire to work within the field of Asian American Studies and continue on to a doctorate program. My coursework in American Studies was rigorous and pushed me out of my comfort zone in the best way.

Eye-opening, entertaining films, thoughtful discussion, and free refreshments July 10 ITZHAK (Documentary – USA, 2017 / 1 hr 22 min) Winner - Audience Award: Cherry Hill Jewish Film Festival & New Jersey Jewish Film Festival. “…a joyous film about a joyous man.” – RogerEbert.com Alison Chernick's enchanting documentary explores Perlman as a life force, looking beyond the sublime musician to see the polio survivor whose parents emigrated from Poland to Israel, and the young man who struggled to be taken seriously as a music student when schools saw only his disability. Itzhak himself is funny, irreverent and self-deprecating, and here his life story unspools in conversations with masterful musicians, family and friends, and most endearingly his devoted wife of 50 years, Toby. In English and Hebrew. July 17 IN BETWEEN (Drama – Israel, 2016 / 1 hr 43 min) Winner: Ophir Award for Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress “Maysaloun Hamoud’s film about three Palestinian women sharing an apartment in Tel Aviv, is fatalistic about the local political situation, pessimistic about men and encouraged by the power of female solidarity. In other words, whether by serendipity or prophetic insight or some combination of the two, it’s a perfect movie for the moment.” – A.O. Scott (New York Times) Director Hamoud received the Women in Motion Young Talents award at this year’s Cannes festival. Isabelle Huppert, who selected her for the award, declared that “the free spirited and joyful women [Hamoud] portrays… are true heroines of our time.” July 24 SAMMY DAVIS, JR.: I’VE GOTTA BE ME (Documentary – USA, 2018 / 1 hr 40 min) Multiple Award Winner:Audience Award, Nashville Film Festival, Seattle Jewish Film Festival, Denver Jewish Film Festival, Palm Beach Jewish Film Festival.
