  • STANLEY DONEN Chantons Sous La Pluie
    STANLEY DONEN Chantons sous la pluie DOSSIER 150 COLLÈGE AU CINÉMA SYNOPSIS En 1927, l’acteur de cinéma Don Lockwood et sa partenaire Lina Lamont assistent à la première de leur nouveau film à Hollywood. Malgré ce qu’il raconte alors au public sur sa carrière et son sens de la dignité, Don a fait beaucoup de compromissions avant de devenir une star. Avec son ami Cosmo Brown, il a tenté de s’imposer au music-hall, puis a débuté obscu- rément au cinéma comme cascadeur jusqu’à ce que le producteur Simpson des studios Monumental Pictures le remarque et fasse de lui le partenaire de la blonde Lina Lamont, aussi belle qu’idiote. Le service de presse du studio les a fiancés pour des raisons publicitaires. L’écervelée Lina croit que leur amour est réel, alors que Don la déteste et ne joue le jeu du couple que pour la galerie et les magazines. Jusqu’au jour où il est séduit par une jeune danseuse inconnue : Kathy Selden. Les dossiers ainsi que des rubriques audiovisuelles Suite au succès du premier film parlant, Don et Lina tournent une production sont disponibles sur le site internet : selon ce procédé, mais l’actrice se révèle incapable de se plier à cette nou- www.transmettrelecinema.com Base de données et lieu interactif, ce site, conçu velle technique.

  • British Films 1971-1981
    Preface This is a reproduction of the original 1983 publication, issued now in the interests of historical research. We have resisted the temptations of hindsight to change, or comment on, the text other than to correct spelling errors. The document therefore represents the period in which it was created, as well as the hard work of former colleagues of the BFI. Researchers will notice that the continuing debate about the definitions as to what constitutes a “British” production was topical, even then, and that criteria being considered in 1983 are still valid. Also note that the Dept of Trade registration scheme ceased in May 1985 and that the Eady Levy was abolished in the same year. Finally, please note that we have included reminders in one or two places to indicate where information could be misleading if taken for current. David Sharp Deputy Head (User Services) BFI National Library August 2005 ISBN: 0 85170 149 3 © BFI Information Services 2005 British Films 1971 – 1981: - back cover text to original 1983 publication. What makes a film British? Is it the source of its finance or the nationality of the production company and/or a certain percentage of its cast and crew? Is it possible to define a British content? These were the questions which had to be addressed in compiling British Films 1971 – 1981. The publication includes commercial features either made and/or released in Britain between 1971 and 1981 and lists them alphabetically and by year of registration (where appropriate). Information given for each film includes production company, studio and/or major location, running time, director and references to trade paper production charts and Monthly Film Bulletin reviews as source of more detailed information.
