Commercial Films/Video Tapes on Teaching
Commercial Films/Video Tapes On Teaching Prepared by Gary D Fenstermacher Three categories of film or video are included here, depending on whether teaching occurs in the setting of a school (Category I), in a tutorial relationship between teacher and student (Category II), or simply as a plot device in a comedy about or parody of teaching and schooling (Category III). Films described in Category I are listed alphabetically, within decade headings; it is the year the film was made, not the time period it depicts, that determines the decade in which the film is classified. Category I: Depicting Teachers in School Settings 1930's Goodbye, Mr. Chips (1939). Robert Donat, Greer Garson. British schoolmaster devoted to "his boys." Remade as musical in 1969, starring Peter O'Toole; remake received poor reviews. If you select this film, please do not use the remade version; use the original, 1939, film. It is a first-rate film. 1940's The Corn is Green (1945). Bette Davis, Nigel Bruce. Devoted teacher copes with prize pupil in Welsh mining town in 1895. (1 hr 35 min) Highly regarded remake in 1979 stars Katherine Hepburn in her last teaming with director George Cukor. OK to use either version (1945 or 1979). 1950's Blackboard Jungle (1955). Glenn Ford, Anne Francis. Teacher's difficult adjustment to New York City schools. First commercial film to feature rock music. 1960's The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie (1969). Maggie Smith. Eccentric teacher in British girls school. Smith wins Oscar for her performance. Remade as TV miniseries. To Sir With Love (1967, British).

Northern Italy: the Alps, Dolomites & Lombardy 2021
YOUR O.A.T. ADVENTURE TRAVEL PLANNING GUIDE® Northern Italy: The Alps, Dolomites & Lombardy 2021 Small Groups: 8-16 travelers—guaranteed! (average of 13) Overseas Adventure Travel ® The Leader in Personalized Small Group Adventures on the Road Less Traveled 1 Dear Traveler, At last, the world is opening up again for curious travel lovers like you and me. And the O.A.T. Northern Italy: The Alps, Dolomites & Lombardy itinerary you’ve expressed interest in will be a wonderful way to resume the discoveries that bring us so much joy. You might soon be enjoying standout moments like these: In my mind, nothing is more idyllic than the mountainous landscapes and rural villages of Alpine Europe. To immerse myself in their pastoral traditions and everyday life, I love to explore rural communities like Teglio, a small village nestled in the Valtellina Valley. You’ll see what I mean when you experience A Day in the Life of a small, family-run farm here where you’ll have the opportunity to meet the owner, walk the grounds, lend a hand with the daily farm chores, and share a traditional meal with your hosts in the farmhouse. You’ll also get a taste for some of the other crafts in the Valley when you visit a locally-owned goat cheese producer and a water-powered mill. But the most moving stories of all were the ones I heard directly from the local people I met. You’ll meet them, too, and hear their personal experiences during a conversation with two political refugeees at a local café in Milan to discuss the deeply divisive issue of immigration in Italy.

HJR 23.1 Sadoff
38 The Henry James Review Appeals to Incalculability: Sex, Costume Drama, and The Golden Bowl By Dianne F. Sadoff, Miami University Sex is the last taboo in film. —Catherine Breillat Today’s “meat movie” is tomorrow’s blockbuster. —Carol J. Clover When it was released in May 2001, James Ivory’s film of Henry James’s final masterpiece, The Golden Bowl, received decidedly mixed reviews. Kevin Thomas calls it a “triumph”; Stephen Holden, “handsome, faithful, and intelligent” yet “emotionally distanced.” Given the successful—if not blockbuster—run of 1990s James movies—Jane Campion’s The Portrait of a Lady (1996), Agniezka Holland’s Washington Square (1997), and Iain Softley’s The Wings of the Dove (1997)—the reviewers, as well as the fans, must have anticipated praising The Golden Bowl. Yet the film opened in “selected cities,” as the New York Times movie ads noted; after New York and Los Angeles, it showed in university towns and large urban areas but not “at a theater near you” or at “theaters everywhere.” Never mind, however, for the Merchant Ivory film never intended to be popular with the masses. Seeking a middlebrow audience of upper-middle-class spectators and generally intelligent filmgoers, The Golden Bowl aimed to portray an English cultural heritage attractive to Anglo-bibliophiles. James’s faux British novel, however, is paradoxically peopled with foreigners: American upwardly mobile usurpers, an impoverished Italian prince, and a social-climbing but shabby ex- New York yentl. Yet James’s ironic portrait of this expatriate culture, whose characters seek only to imitate their Brit betters—if not in terms of wealth and luxury, at least in social charm and importance—failed to seem relevant to viewers The Henry James Review 23 (2002): 38–52.

MASTERPIECE Launches 50Th Anniversary Season with Hit Drama
MASTERPIECE Launches 50th Anniversary Season with Hit Drama Elizabeth is Missing Starring Glenda Jackson Flagship PBS Drama Series Turns 50 on Sunday, January 10, 2021 Boston, MA; July 29, 2020---MASTERPIECE on PBS will kick off its 50th anniversary season in January 2021 with Elizabeth is Missing, a BAFTA-nominated mystery starring two-time Academy Award® winner Glenda Jackson in her triumphant return to MASTERPIECE. In a performance described by the Guardian (UK) as “harrowing, compelling, unsentimental and altogether magnificent,” Jackson portrays a woman in the grip of dementia trying to solve the case of her missing friend. Almost 50 years ago, in 1971, Jackson won two Emmy® awards for her role as Queen Elizabeth I in MASTERPIECE’s Elizabeth R. Elizabeth is Missing will premiere on Sunday, January 3 at 9pm ET. January will also see the premiere of a new adaptation of All Creatures Great and Small, a seven-part series based on James Herriot’s heartwarming, entertaining and hilarious adventures as a veterinarian in 1930s Yorkshire; a 1970s adaptation was a hit when it aired on public television. Later in January at the special time of 8pm, MASTERPIECE will air Miss Scarlet and the Duke, a new six-part mystery starring Kate Phillips (Peaky Blinders) as the feisty, first-ever female detective in Victorian London. “We’re thrilled Glenda Jackson will lead off our 50th anniversary year,” says MASTERPIECE executive producer Susanne Simpson. “MASTERPIECE has been home to some of the best British dramas of our time, and a showcase for British ‘acting royalty’ such as Maggie Smith, Kenneth Branagh, Helen Mirren and Benedict Cumberbatch, and of course, Glenda Jackson.” One of the longest-running weekly series on primetime television, MASTERPIECE is presented by WGBH Boston and is funded by Viking, Raymond James and the MASTERPIECE Trust.
