    Quan el 1934 Madeleine Carroll va trepitjar per primera vegada la Costa Brava, aquesta actriu anglesa era encara poc coneguda fora de les pantalles britàniques. L’imminent pas cap a Hollywood li va fer encetar una carrera fulgurant impulsada pel treball amb alguns dels més prestigiosos directors del moment: John Ford, Alfred Hitchcock, William Dieterle, Cecil B. de Mille… Va ser en aquesta època quan les nostres comarques es van convertir en refugi de l’estrella entre rodatge i rodat- ge, però la tranquil·litat que més anhelava es va veure interrompuda per l’esclat de la Guerra Civil, que la va mantenir allunyada de la seva propietat catalana. En poc temps la mateixa ombra de la guerra s’estendria per tot Europa. Madeleine Carroll no va voler ser una simple espectadora del conflicte i va decidir-se a parti- cipar activament per recuperar la pau i els valors democràtics i es va implicar d’una manera molt personal com a membre de la Creu Roja, per donar suport a les vícti- mes més directes de la guerra, sobretot als nens orfes francesos i als soldats ame- ricans ferits. Ara, aprofitant el centenari del seu naixement i valent-nos d’alguns objectes i docu- ments del llegat de l’actriu, que ella mateixa conservava com els seus records més preuats, us proposem fer un recorregut per descobrir els diferents aspectes de la vida de Madeleine Carroll, des del més glamourós al més compromès. UNA ACTRIU ANGLESA A HOLLYWOOD Poc temps després de descobrir la passió pel teatre a la universitat, Madeleine Carroll (West Bromwich, Birmingham, 1906) que exercia de professora de francès, va viatjar a Londres a estudiar interpretació, obviant l’oposició familiar.

  • John Buchan Wrote the Thirty-Nine Steps While He Was Ill in Bed with a Duodenal Ulcer, an Illness Which Remained with Him All His Life
    John Buchan wrote The Thirty-Nine Steps while he was ill in bed with a duodenal ulcer, an illness which remained with him all his life. The novel was his first ‘shocker’, as he called it — a story combining personal and political dramas. The novel marked a turning point in Buchan's literary career and introduced his famous adventuring hero, Richard Hannay. He described a ‘shocker’ as an adventure where the events in the story are unlikely and the reader is only just able to believe that they really happened. The Thirty-Nine Steps is one of the earliest examples of the 'man-on-the-run' thriller archetype subsequently adopted by Hollywood as an often-used plot device. In The Thirty-Nine Steps, Buchan holds up Richard Hannay as an example to his readers of an ordinary man who puts his country’s interests before his own safety. The story was a great success with the men in the First World War trenches. One soldier wrote to Buchan, "The story is greatly appreciated in the midst of mud and rain and shells, and all that could make trench life depressing." Richard Hannay continued his adventures in four subsequent books. Two were set during the war when Hannay continued his undercover work against the Germans and their allies The Turks in Greenmantle and Mr Standfast. The other two stories, The Three Hostages and The Island of Sheep were set in the post war period when Hannay's opponents were criminal gangs. There have been several film versions of the book; all depart substantially from the text, for example, by introducing a love interest absent from the original novel.

  • Films from the THIRTIES: PART II 1935-39
    t% The Museum of Modern Art 1] West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 245-3200 Cable: Modernart No. 83 FOR RELEASE: Friday, August 25, I968 Films from THE THIRTIES: PART II 1935-39 The Museum of Modern Art, will present a retrospective of films from the thirties beginning August 23, and running through October 6. The Thirties, according to Willard Van Dyke, Director of the Department of Film, will consist of 39 pictures, representing some of the richest creative talent in American cinema at a time that has been called "the dear, dead days not beyond recall." Two years ago the Museum presented The Thirties, U.S.A., Part I, covering the first half of the decade. The films being shown now as Part II were made from 1935 ^^ 193 '• Among the pictures to be shown are: Frank Capra's "Lost Horizon"; Paul Muni in "The Life of Emile Zola," the Story of a Northern Jew's lynching in the South; the great thriller "Night Must Fall," an adaptation of the Emlyn Williams play starring Robert Montgomery; and "The Good Earth," a spectacle film in black and white, from Pearl Buck's popular novel, for which Luise Rainer won her second Academy Award, with Paul Muni in the starring role. The latter part of the thirties was characterized by further achievements in the musical film, largely due to the talents of Fred Astaire, who with Ginger Rogers starred in "Top Hat," and "Shall We Dance," both of which are in the retrospective. The most important contributions to the annals of films made in the thirties was the series of "snowball" comedies Hollywood turned out at a time of grim, economic hardships.
