My Autobiography, Alex Norton, Since his first tentative steps on stage, Alex Norton's career has been both highly colourful and eventful beyond his wildest dreams. His journey from the streets of Glasgow's notorious Gorbals to blockbuster Hollywood movies has rarely been smooth but in a career spanning six decades he has pretty much seen it all - and done most of it. It was the fairer sex that first attracted the teenage Alex to acting and, as soon as he discovered it was a great way to meet girls, he was hooked for life. Aer early appearances on Dr Finlay's Casebook, Alex's career took a bit of a slump but as jobbing actor in London in the late Sixties he met and played guitar with a young Davy Jones as they worked together as extras on a movie.

  • How UK and USA Films Represented and Performed Scottishness from 1895 to 1935: with Particular Attention to the Transition to Sound (1927–1933)
    How UK and USA Films Represented and Performed Scottishness from 1895 to 1935: With Particular Attention to the Transition to Sound (1927–1933) John Ritchie Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Stirling Division of Communication, Media and Culture School of Arts and Humanities August 2018 © John Ritchie 2018 Abstract This thesis explores the manners in which UK and USA cinema represented and performed Scottish people’s national identity from 1895 to 1935. It starts with the early years of cinema and identifies certain characteristic themes and motifs borrowed from both literature and theatre. Once these themes are established, the thesis moves on through the silent film era tracing developments, or stagnation, in the performances of Scottishness. The transition to sound is the key period for the thesis and it examines the variety of “Scottish” accents that were heard in cinemas. Performed Scottishness from the USA is explored and the thesis identifies methods by which Hollywood brought “Scottish” voices to the screen. In tandem with this, UK productions at the outset of synchronised sound-on-film are investigated. The most famous Scotsman in the world, Sir Harry Lauder, is analysed both in terms of his performances of Scottishness and the effects of those performances on further representations of Scottishness. That is compared with the work of one of his closest contemporaries, Will Fyffe. Verisimilitude, an attempt to bring reality in representations in narrative drama, is scrutinised in a case study of the 1930 film, The Loves of Robert Burns. The study closes in 1935 by which time fully synchronised talking features had become the staple in the English speaking cinema.
