  • Douglas Sirk in Nazi Germany
    '.seum of (VSodern Art 50'^ Anrnvprsarv NO. 40 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART FILM PROGRAM TO SHOW FOUR RARE FILMS DIRECTED BY DOUGLAS SIRK IN NAZI GERMANY Four rare films directed by Douglas Sirk during his career in Germany in the mid-1930s will be shown by The Museum of Modern Art Department of Film, August 15-18, 1980. All films will have English subtitles. Introduced by film historian Richard Traubner, the films are: TO NEW SHORES (1937, Zu neuen Ufern) and LA HABANERA (1937), both starring Zarah Leander; FINAL CHORD (1936, Schlussakkord), with Willy Birgel and Lil Dagover; and PILLARS OF SOCIETY (1935, Stutzen der Gesellschaft), with Heinrich George. Schedule as follows: TO NEW SHORES, Friday, August 15 at 6:00 (Introduced by Mr. Traubner) Sunday, August 17 at 8:30 LA HABANERA, Friday, August 15 at 8:30 Sunday, August 17 at 6:00 FINAL CHORD, Saturday, August 16 at 6:00 Monday, August 18 at 8:30 PILLARS OF SOCIETY, Saturday, August 16 at 8:30 Monday, August 18 at 6:00 Numerous Douglas Sirk films produced in Hollywood have been shown at MoMA but his career in Germany in the 30's is largely unknown. Sirk (then Detlef Sierck) had been a successful and versatile theater director before his move to the cinema (Ufa) in 1934. He carried over into film his strong sense of drama and skill with actors. Zarah Leander, the most famous of the Sirk stars, was the Nazi cinema's answer to Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich, a beautiful Swede with a deep 11 West 53 Street, New York, NY 10019.

  • Tarnished Angels
    The Dark Vision of Douglas Sirk 38 NOIR CITY I SPRING 2016 I filmnoirfoundation.org Imogen Sara Smith n a hot night in New Orleans, in a half-lit, elegantly shabby apartment, two troubled souls share a bottle of cheap wine and an intimate, confessional conversation. Next door, a raucous costume party is in full swing, revelers dancing like hopped-up zombies to relentless Dixieland jazz. The man and woman speak tenderly about betrayals and disillusion- O ment, building to a kiss that is jarringly interrupted by Death— a guy in a leering skull mask who bursts in from the party. This scene, from Douglas Sirk’s underappreciated drama The Tarnished Angels (1958), dramatizes one of the director’s key themes: people struggling for authentic connection, surrounded by an oppressive, sinister masquerade of happi- ness. Sirk is best known for baroquely stylized Technicolor melodramas, once dismissed as sudsy kitsch but now embraced by many cinephiles for their formalist rigor and their subversive notes of unease. The work of a European intellectual often saddled with projects he disdained, Sirk’s films are complex, oblique, and visually incisive. One of the few German refugee filmmakers who didnot specialize in film noir, Sirk shared his fellow exiles’ gimlet eye for his adopted country. His lush melodramas strike a dissonant note, resonating from the hollowness behind the false front of the American “good life.” Like his sophisticated noir films of the 1940s, they reveal an insatiable hunger bred by idealized visions of plenty, and the paradoxical seduc- tion of death in a willfully complacent society.

January 14, 1987, Lugano, Switzerland by Tom Ryan Tom Ryan is film critic for The Sunday Age and a Melbourne-based commentator on film. filmography bibliography web resources Your characters have to remain innocent of what your picture is after. – Douglas Sirk (1) Douglas Sirk was one of the 20th century cinema's great ironists. And perhaps the most distinctive characteristic of the films he made in Europe and America is the way they are able to create a gulf between how his characters see themselves and our view of them. Sirk's characters grapple with the same problems that have always afflicted men and women and parents and children, to do with love, death and social circumstance. In some cases, they do so in a world of melodrama – as in films as various as Schlussakkord (1936), La Habanera (1937), There's Always Tomorrow (1955) and Imitation of Life (1958). In others, it's a world of colour and music – as in the trio of comedy-musicals he made during the 1950s, Has Anybody Seen My Gal? (1951), Meet Me at the Fair (1952) and Take Me to Town (1952), part of a series he had planned about small town America. In others, it's the excitement of mystery, romance or adventure – in films such as Lured (1946), Taza, Son of Cochise (1953, shot in 3-D) and Captain Lightfoot (1954).

  • Ming Wong's Art of Imitation
    Ming Wong’s Imitations Barbara Mennel Ming Wong’s Art of Imitation Life of Imitation—the installation prepared by Singaporean performance and multi- media artist Ming Wong for his solo exhibition in the Singapore Pavilion at the 2009 Venice Biennale—restages a pivotal scene from Imitation of Life, Douglas Sirk’s famous 1959 Hollywood maternal melodrama, closely replicating its stage blocking of characters, dialogue, and shot composition. Figure 1: Ming Wong’s Life of Imitation at the Singapore Pavilion at the Venice Biennale Source: Ming Wong, Life of Imitation, 2009; two channel video installation Courtesy: carlier | gebauer, Berlin and Vitamin Creative Space, Guangzhou Full Clip: http://transit.berkeley.edu/2014/mennel-2/ In Wong’s double projection, the three Singaporean actors Sebastian Tan, Moe Kasim, and Alle Majeed—each a member of one of the country’s dominant ethnic groups (Chinese, Malayan, and Indian)—systematically rotate through the female roles of the source material.1 In the key scene from Imitation of Life, the African American maid Annie Johnson, one of the two lead female characters, is visiting her light-skinned daughter Sarah Jane at her workplace in a Los Angeles nightclub. To pass as white, Sarah Jane had previously run away and renounced her mother, who was only able to track her down with the help of a private detective. After a confrontation between the two in a motel room, which ends in a tearful embrace, Sarah Jane’s friend (billed as “Showgirl”) happens to enter and becomes a witness to Sarah Jane’s racial passing, which her mother reinforces by pretending to be her former mammy.

They are small cliniques, filled with Jacuzzi pumps, sitz bath salts, pine oil perfumes, elderberry pastilles, and rainbows of pills. Lugano JANE STERN is a town obsessed with health. Even its tourist brochure acknowledges it to be "beneficial to the mucous membranes." There is another Lugano — a town dotted with Italian-Swiss restaurants perched on the undulating slopes surrounding the lake. This is a Lugano of wealth, of gold watches draped MICHAEL STERN on jewelers' velvets, of 15th-century villas hung with Titians. Douglas Sirk lives in Ruvigliana, a district perched celestially above the two Luganos.
