Ellis Auditorium Course Syllabus, Spring 2017 READ THIS DOCUMENT CAREFULLY! Welcome to the Spring Cinema Series… a unique opportunity to learn about cinema in an interdisciplinary, cinematheque-style environment open to the general public! Throughout the term we will invite a variety of special guests to enrich your understanding of the films in the series. The films will be preceded by formal introductions and followed by public discussions. You are welcome and encouraged to bring guests throughout the term! This is not a traditional class, therefore it is important for you to review the course assignments and due dates carefully to ensure that you fulfill all the requirements to earn the grade you desire. We want the Cinema Series to be both entertaining and enlightening for students and community alike. Welcome to our college film club! COURSE DESCRIPTION This course will introduce students to one of the most powerful cultural and social communications media of our time: cinema. The successful student will become more aware of the complexity of film art, more sensitive to its nuances, textures, and rhythms, and more perceptive in “reading” its multilayered blend of image, sound, and motion. The films, texts, and classroom materials will cover a broad range of domestic, independent, and international cinema, making students aware of the culture, politics, and social history of the periods in which the films were produced.

  • John Bull University of Lincoln 'We Cannot All Be Masters, Nor All Masters/Cannot Truly Be Follow'd': Joe Orton's Holida
    John Bull University of Lincoln ‘We cannot all be masters, nor all masters/Cannot truly be follow’d’: Joe Orton’s Holiday Camp Bacchae – matters of class, genre and medium in The Erpingham Camp. Joe Orton is thought of largely as a writer for the theatre, and yet three of his plays first appeared on television: as many as first appeared on stage. In what follows I want to consider just one of these, The Erpingham Camp (1967) and, by looking at the way in which it evolved both before and after its first outing on television, to offer to both reposition this play in the oeuvre and to re-open the debate about what Orton was moving towards theatrically.1 Before considering its development, it will be useful first to reflect on the public perception of the young dramatist at the time he started to work on it. From a distance of some fifty years, and in a very different social and cultural climate, it is extremely hard to fully comprehend the kind of impact that Joe Orton’s plays had when first produced: and, concomitantly, it is just about impossible to understand the degree of hostility that they aroused in many quarters, and yet it is important to do so in order to understand how Orton dealt practically with the implications of this hostility. Nor was it confined to sections of the paying public and to newspaper critics, as reaction to the work that caused the greatest furore at the time, Loot (1964), will demonstrate. Examination of the Lord Chamberlain’s archive reveals that there was considerable internal pressure to refuse to grant it a licence at all: a reader’s report by Kyle Fletcher (8 December 1964) argued that the play 1 Work on this article has been greatly aided by research in the following archives: ‘Joe Orton Collection’, University of Leicester; ‘’Lord Chancellor’s Papers’ and ‘Peter Gill Archive’, British Library; ‘Lyndsay Anderson Archive’, University of Stirling; the British Film Institute archive.

  • 1 Sticky Stories: Joe Orton, Queer History, Queer Dramaturgy
    Sticky Stories: Joe Orton, Queer History, Queer Dramaturgy. Stephen Farrier Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, University of London. Joe Orton, commonly thought of as a playwright of risqué farces in the 1960s, was a very present figure for a while in the gay community in the UK in the late 1980s and early 1990s (perhaps because his biography was published late in the 1970s, his diaries in 1986 and a film based on the diaries released 1987). His presence in 1980s and 1990s gay culture was in part because he met a death worthy of column inches and, importantly, he stood as emblematic of a past homosexual who refused to curb his sexuality whilst living in a conservative social context. In England and Wales, homosexuality was not criminalised in the 1980s and 1990s as it had been in the 1950s and 1960s, but there were present homophobic social values and legislation (Section 28, unequal age of consent) that resonated with the context within which Orton was writing and his work was first being produced.1 Orton’s figure as a queer and a playwright stood as both inspiration and a lesson from the past, one that reminded queers and gays in the 1980s and 1990s that the fight for equality does not end with a change in the legal status of homosexuality, or indeed in the 2010s, with equal marriage. Yet in recent years Orton’s work has fallen out of favour and does not appear as often as it once did on the queer cultural landscape. There are many reasons for this, not least of all that the kind of work that Orton makes might not register as queer or even gay now.

  • What the Artist Saw: Art Inspired by the Life and Work of Joe Orton What the Artist Saw
    What the Artist Saw: Art Inspired by the Life and Work of Joe Orton What the Artist Saw: Art Inspired by the Life and Work of Joe Orton Artists: David Lock, Louise Plant, Tim Youd Curators: Michael Petry (MOCA, London) and Emma Parker (University of Leicester) Museum of Contemporary Art, London: 5 February - 4 March 2017 New Walk Museum and Art Gallery, Leicester: 29 July - 22 October 2017 What Artists See The impetus for this exhibition was a conversation with Dr Sarah Graham, the partner of Dr Emma Parker, co-curator of the exhibition. Sarah and I met at a conference whose aim was to generate a festival around the history of HIV/ AIDS in Europe, which will take place in Amsterdam and London in 2018. Sarah mentioned that Emma was working on a project to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Joe Orton’s death and I immediately thought that MOCA should be involved. It is the odd nature of things that Orton, who had many sexual partners, should have died at the hands of his long-term lover, Kenneth Halliwell, and therefor not become ill from a disease that killed so many creative people from his generation. A hammer blow to the head, as opposed to a blowjob, took his life. Somehow, if he weren’t the victim of this scenario, I think he might have found it poetic, or funny, but most likely he would have preferred to still be alive either way, and not to have ever contracted HIV. The toll on the creative community in the 1980’s is in many ways a bad dream, one that is remembered, but institutionally, often pushed out of the mind.

SONIC VOCALITY: A THEORY ON THE USE OF VOICE IN CHARACTER PORTRAYAL by CINDY ANN MILLIGAN Under the Direction of Patricia G. Davis, PhD ABSTRACT The primary purpose of this study was to discover whether and how the voice alone can change audiences’ perception of character in films. It further sought to determine some of the specific changes in vocal performance that might construct that difference. Data were gathered from three focus groups that screened film clips between two and five minutes long. The clips were edited from five pairs of matched films—an original and its remake. Films were chosen to represent a variety of genres and release dates, and they included scenes where the dialogue was identical or similar. Although each focus group experienced the same set of edited film clips from the matched film pairs, one group experienced only the sound without any visuals, a second group watched only the visuals of the same clips without any sound, and a third group watched the clips as they were produced with sound and visuals.

Title: Prick Up Your Ears Take a look back at Gary Oldman 's movie career in photos. See more Gary. This movie is the story of the spectacular life and violent death of British playwright Joe Orton Gary Oldman. In his teens, Orton is befriended by the older, more reserved Kenneth Halliwell Alfred Molinaand while the two begin a relationship, it's fairly obvious that it's not all about sex. Orton loves the dangers of bath-houses and liaisons in public restrooms; Halliwell, not as charming or attractive as Orton, doesn't fare so well in those environments. While both long to become writers, it is Orton who achieves fame. His plays "Entertaining Mr. Sloane" and "Loot" become huge hits in London of the sixties, and he's even commissioned to write a screenplay for the Beatles. But Orton's success takes him farther from Halliwell, whose response ended both his life and the life of the up-and-coming playwright. Director Stephen Frears has often picked up interesting subjects for his films. Set in the 60s, this was during the time when 'being gay' in public was considered a criminal offense in parts of UK. Joe Orton is confident, talented, mellow and liked by everyone while his partner Halliwell is comparatively shy and distant and resentful of Joe's success as he claims to be the man behind his partner's success and complains about not receiving enough credit for it.
