  • World War Ii and Us Cinema
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: WORLD WAR II AND U.S. CINEMA: RACE, NATION, AND REMEMBRANCE IN POSTWAR FILM, 1945-1978 Robert Keith Chester, Ph.D., 2011 Co-Directed By: Dr. Gary Gerstle, Professor of History, Vanderbilt University Dr. Nancy Struna, Professor of American Studies, University of Maryland, College Park This dissertation interrogates the meanings retrospectively imposed upon World War II in U.S. motion pictures released between 1945 and the mid-1970s. Focusing on combat films and images of veterans in postwar settings, I trace representations of World War II between war‘s end and the War in Vietnam, charting two distinct yet overlapping trajectories pivotal to the construction of U.S. identity in postwar cinema. The first is the connotations attached to U.S. ethnoracial relations – the presence and absence of a multiethnic, sometimes multiracial soldiery set against the hegemony of U.S. whiteness – in depictions of the war and its aftermath. The second is Hollywood‘s representation (and erasure) of the contributions of the wartime Allies and the ways in which such images engaged with and negotiated postwar international relations. Contrary to notions of a ―good war‖ untainted by ambiguity or dissent, I argue that World War II gave rise to a conflicted cluster of postwar meanings. At times, notably in the early postwar period, the war served as a progressive summons to racial reform. At other times, the war was inscribed as a historical moment in which U.S. racism was either nonexistent or was laid permanently to rest. In regard to the Allies, I locate a Hollywood dialectic between internationalist and unilateralist remembrances.

  • The Hollywood Political Thriller During the Cold War, 1945
    The Hollywood Political Thriller During the Cold War, 1945 - 1962 Submitted by Deena Bowman to the University of Exeter as a Thesis for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Film Studies, December 2014 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The past four years have presented enumerable challenges, but my family and friends have remained by my side, helping me to move forward. Thanks go to the University of Exeter for providing me an opportunity to pursue my love of film and history. To Dr. Tomas Williams and Dr. Gábor Gergely for stimulating conversations over dinner and football. Sincere thanks go to Professor William Higbee for agreeing to supervise me in the final days of this project. Lastly, I am forever grateful to Professor Susan Hayward, a mentor and friend. 3 ABSTRACT This thesis investigates a corpus of films identifiable as Hollywood political thrillers during the Cold War spanning a period of seventeen years, between 1945 and 1962. It aims to dispel the assertion by critics and scholars that the political thriller originates with the release of The Manchurian Candidate (Frankenheimer, 1962). Moreover, it is my intent to engage an interdisciplinary approach given that the relationship between contemporary American cinema, ideology and propaganda has often been overlooked (see Shaw, 2007).

  • The Face of a Saint
    one The Face of a Saint From the beginning, Montgomery Clift was hailed as exceptional. In December 1948, Life magazine featured an earnest Clift on its cover over the title “New Male Movie Stars.” While the other candidates for stardom (including Richard Widmark, Ricardo Montalban, Louis Jourdan, Peter Lawford, and Farley Granger) were presented as a group, Clift had already been singled out. 1 “Clift, 28, heads the list of new male movie discoveries,” Life proclaimed. 2 This pronouncement was widely seconded at the time and would be reiterated for decades. One critic, comparing him with con - temporaries Marlon Brando and James Dean fifty years later, asserted that Clift was “the purest, and least mannered of these actors, perhaps the most sensitive, certainly the most poetic. He was also remarkably beautiful.” 3 Spencer Tracy put it more bluntly: “He makes most of today’s young play - ers look like bums.” 4 One distinct advantage Clift had over the other newcomers in Decem - ber 1948 was the recent release of his first two films, The Search and Red River. The first appeared in March, the second in September. As with much of Clift’s legend, the question of which film should be considered his first is subject to debate. Although The Search was the first to appear in theaters, Red River was the first film Clift made, having been produced two years earlier and its release delayed. Choosing to begin with one film over the other has important conse - quences, not least raising the question of whether we give precedence to the actor’s experience or to that of the viewer.

    15 1 ‘United Nations children’ in Hollywood cinema: Juvenile actors and humanitarian sentiment in the 1940s Michael Lawrence This chapter examines specific ideological and aesthetic dimensions of the represen- tation of children in American films produced during and directly after the Second World War in relation to the promotion and operations of the United Nations.1 It addresses how pitiable and vulnerable children from the world’s warzones – specific- ally groups of orphaned, abandoned and injured children from different countries – appeared and functioned in four Hollywood studio pictures: Twentieth Century Fox’s suspense thriller The Pied Piper (Irving Pichel, 1942), Universal’s romantic musical The Amazing Mrs Holliday (Jean Renoir/ Bruce Danning, 1943), RKO’s com- edian comedy Heavenly Days (Howard Estabrook, 1944) and RKO’s family fantasy The Boy with Green Hair (Joseph Losey, 1948). I explore how these films presented groups of children to harness humanitarian sentiment in support of the ideology and activities of the UN, and consider the critical response to (and a director’s reflections on) the juvenile actors who appeared in the films; while the figure of the child acquired new cultural and political significance in the era of the UN’s wartime and post- war humanitarian endeavours, the presentation and performance of the Hollywood child actor simultaneously became subject to new modes of aesthetic apprehension and evaluation. As Liisa H. Malkki has suggested, children are ‘central to widely circulating representations of “humanity”

  • 1 Postwar Berlin
    INTERMEDIATE CHAPTER POSTWAR BERLIN: 1945-1949 In preparation for our simulated or real walk to locations of Berlin that have significance for the 1945—1949 period, we will turn to three films: Wolfgang Staudte’s Die Mörder sind unter uns (1946), Gerhard Lamprecht’s Irgendwo in Berlin (1946); and Roberto Rosselini’s Germania anno zero (1948). The war-ravaged city on the screen is barely recognizable as Berlin. Other than the panoramic view of the bombarded Reichstag at the beginning of Germania anno zero and later the brief shots of Black Market activities in its vicinity, the films include no Berlin landmarks. In each a landscape of equalizing rubble dominates. Given the American and British saturation bombings started in early 1943 and heightened in the spring of 1945 (the British bombed at night, the Americans during the day), it is a miracle that any buildings remained more or less intact. Why some were saved while others were destroyed seems inexplicable, just as inexplicable as the intact rooms jutting into the landscape on steel props from the sites of otherwise demolished buildings. There is little evidence of the “Hurrah! We’re still alive!” feeling that supposedly animated Germans in 1945. Avoiding comments on the rubble, people move around in it as if it had been their natural surrounding their entire lives. No one worries about hidden explosives or about dropping into one of the many holes in the asphalt which off and on caused Berliners to land in subway tunnels. Focused on the present, on making it through the next day or merely the next hour, people simply cope with their hardships as best they can.

  • Frontier of Freedom: Berlin in American Cold War Discourse from the Airlift to Kennedy
    FRONTIER OF FREEDOM: BERLIN IN AMERICAN COLD WAR DISCOURSE FROM THE AIRLIFT TO KENNEDY A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Timothy Todd Smith, B.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2008 Master’s Examination Committee Approved by Eugene W. Holland, Advisor Philip A. Armstrong ____________________________ Advisor Alan D. Beyerchen Graduate Program in Comparative Studies ABSTRACT This thesis attempts to locate the role of Berlin in American discourse during the height of the Cold War using a theoretical model based on the discourse theory of Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe. It analyzes the historical background of the American investment in Berlin from wartime negotiations through Kennedy’s Berlin visit in 1963, and it draws on official and media representations in order to develop a sense of how Berlin, its people and its events were represented to the American people at the time. Discourse theory is then explained and its key terms illustrated with reference to the role of Berlin within American Cold War discourse. Finally, I argue that Berlin helped to fix the meaning of key terms such as “freedom,” “democracy” and “anticommunism,” thereby contributing to the coherence of American Cold War discourse and the subject positions it produced. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to thank my advisor, Eugene Holland, for his guidance and patience throughout this project, as well as my committee members, Philip Armstrong and Alan Beyerchen, for serving on my examination committee and for their helpful comments and encouragement. Margaret Lynd encouraged me to finish my degree, and she helped me at several points to negotiate the multifarious forms and deadlines of the graduate school, for which I am grateful.
