  • Dictionary of Westerns in Cinema
    PERFORMING ARTS • FILM HISTORICAL DICTIONARY OF Historical Dictionaries of Literature and the Arts, No. 26 VARNER When early filmgoers watched The Great Train Robbery in 1903, many shrieked in terror at the very last clip, when one of the outlaws turned toward the camera and seemingly fired a gun directly at the audience. The puff of WESTERNS smoke was sudden and hand-colored, and it looked real. Today we can look back at that primitive movie and see all the elements of what would evolve HISTORICAL into the Western genre. Perhaps the Western’s early origins—The Great Train DICTIONARY OF Robbery was the first narrative, commercial movie—or its formulaic yet enter- WESTERNS in Cinema taining structure has made the genre so popular. And with the recent success of films like 3:10 to Yuma and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, the Western appears to be in no danger of disappearing. The story of the Western is told in this Historical Dictionary of Westerns in Cinema through a chronology, a bibliography, an introductory essay, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on cinematographers; com- posers; producers; films like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Dances with Wolves, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, High Noon, The Magnificent Seven, The Searchers, Tombstone, and Unforgiven; actors such as Gene Autry, in Cinema Cinema Kirk Douglas, Clint Eastwood, Henry Fonda, Jimmy Stewart, and John Wayne; and directors like John Ford and Sergio Leone.

  • Open GRAFF Thesis Final Draft.Pdf
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School School of Music INDIAN IDENTITY: CASE STUDIES OF THREE JOHN FORD NARRATIVE WESTERN FILMS A Thesis in Musicology by Peter A. Graff © 2013 Peter A. Graff Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts May 2013 ii The thesis of Peter A. Graff was reviewed and approved* by the following: Charles Youmans Associate Professor of Musicology Thesis Advisor Marica S. Tacconi Professor of Musicology Sue Haug Professor of Music Director of the School of Music *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT Music in John Ford’s Westerns reveals increasingly complex and sympathetic depictions of Native Americans throughout his filmography. While other directors of the genre tend to showcase a one-dimensional “brutal savage” archetype (especially in the early sound era), Ford resisted this tendency in favor of multidimensional depictions. As a director, Ford was particularly opinionated about music and wielded ultimate control over the types of songs used in his films. The resulting artworks, visual and aural, were therefore the vision of one creator. To investigate the participation of music in Ford’s approach, I have investigated three archetypal products of the Western’s three early periods: The Iron Horse (1924), Stagecoach (1939), and The Searchers (1956). In The Iron Horse, an Indian duality is visually present with the incorporation of friendly Pawnees and destructive Cheyennes. My recent recovery of the score, however, reveals a more complicated reading due to thematic borrowing that identifies white characters as the source of Indian aggression. Stagecoach builds upon this duality by adding a third morally ambiguous Indian character, Yakima.

  • Stagecoach John Ford –1939
    Le Passculture fait son cinéma (2019-2020) Jeudi 19 mars 2020, 18h30, Cinématographe (Montbenon) Prof. Alain Boillat (UNIL) Stagecoach John Ford –1939 Des textes au film Compétences mobilisées • Se familiariser avec l’analyse comparée du récit romanesque et du récit filmique ; • Envisager une œuvre en fonction de son contexte de production/réception, en tenant compte notamment de la question du genre (cinématographique). Un PowerPoint ainsi que des extraits de films seront à disposition sur le site du Centre d’études cinématographiques de l’Unil (onglet « Le Passculture fait son cinéma ») au plus tard le jeudi 12 mars 2020. 1 Pourquoi travailler Stagecoach en classe de français ? L’étude du film permet d’aborder de manière oblique la célèbre nouvelle de Maupassant « Boule de suif » (1880), offrant sur celle-ci un éclairage sur ce qui en fait un récit susceptible d’occasionner des réappropriations plus récentes. En effet, le western Stagecoach – dont l’une des affiches promotionnelles met plus en exergue le rassemblement fortuit dans la diligence de personnages différents que le cadre westernien (slide 31 du PowerPoint) – n’est pas à proprement parler une adaptation du texte de Maupassant, mais d’un autre texte littéraire qui s’en inspire. Par conséquent, l’étude du film peut se dispenser de traiter la sempiternelle question de la « fidélité » à l’œuvre originale (comparaison « terme à terme ») au profit d’une prise en considération du contexte de production du film (travail collectif, genre typiquement états-unien, etc.) et de la circulation

A dad we shared with America in some of its finest cinematic moments. I think you will find this book appealing because it provides a glimpse into his personal life; a life that many people have not seen. Its personal effects and best-remembered film moments are our memories and yours. — Ethan Wayne President, John Wayne Enterprises Director, John Wayne Cancer Foundation ABOVE Four generations of the Wayne family in a magazine photo-essay from the 1970s. 8 9 ForewordMARTIN SCORSESE There was a time when John Wayne and America seemed more or less synonymous. When I was young, Wayne was the ideal of American manhood. His grace, his power, his ease, his beauty—there was something remarkable about his authority and the respect he commanded. As I grew older and the country became more divided, many of us realized that it was actually a certain idea of America that he represented, an idea that many young people found hypocritical and brutally insensitive to the rest of the world.
