  • Eager to Please Their Discussants That One Is Painfully Reminded of Barbara 160 Left History 6.1
    Reviews 159 Paul Buhle and Patrick McGilligan, Tender Comrades: A Backstory of the Hollywood Blacklist (New York: St. Martin's Press 1997). When Yogi Berra pontificated that "It ain't over until it's over!" he may have hit a deep vein of truth. Certainly, his sage words apply to the Cold War. Perestroika and the demolition of the Berlin Wall did not bring reconciliation between right and left - at least not in the USA, the source of Bruce Springsteen's famous bellow. Indeed, since 1989 we have been engulfed not only in renewed warfare on various battlefields but, more significantly I think, in the groves of academe. Intellectuals, right and left, hurl verbal missiles at each other with increasing frequency if not accuracy. Ellen Schrecker, for example, continues to mine McCarthyism for academic gold, if not glory. Witness, for example, the exchange of letters in the New York Times on Sunday, 2 August 1998. There is an increased fascination with the years following World War 11, that Zeitgeist which I have tried to capture in conjunction with Joram Warmund. The book, Jackie Robinson: Race, Sports and theAmerican Dream takes a hard look at the cold war era and the legacy of heroes like Mr. Robinson. This labour of love will be followed by a second burnt offering, namely, a study of Paul Robeson whose 100th birthday stirred old passions and even produces "hate mail" in the wake of a day in his honour, 28 February 1998, held on the campus of Long Island University. Thus, when another retrospective on "Scoundrel Time" beckoned, I jumped at the opportunity to share my unabashed enthusiasm for Tender Comrades, expertly edited by Patrick McGilligan and Paul Buhle and attractively published by St.

  • Using Film to Teach Psychology: a Resource of Film Study Guides
    USING FILM TO TEACH PSYCHOLOGY: A RESOURCE OF FILM STUDY GUIDES Elizabeth M. Nelson, Christian Brothers University (2002 Instructional Resource Award Recipient) Overview This 106-page resource offers instructors tools for using films to enhance their instruction. Student evaluations consistently indicate that films help them learn the topics, provide an alternative to traditional lectures, and give them a different point of view. However, students also say they do not like to view films if they do not understand the relevancy of the film to the course material. This resource gives teachers of psychology additional tools for using film, such as tested study guides, sample syllabi, student papers, references, and Internet resources. The film study guides contained in this resource have been used in a variety of psychology classes, and may be applicable to a variety of other courses.

    THE FORGOTTEN MAN Richard Fleischer’s RKO Years Jason Ney f you were to ask a group of film noir fans to come up with a single list of the best film noir directors of all time, a spirited debate would no doubt ensue. Those who prefer the big-ticket “A” pictures would put Billy Wilder and John Huston at the top. The low-rent, Poverty Row aficionados would argue passionately in favor of Edgar G. Ulmer and Anthony Mann. A few would loudly clamor for Sam Fuller. Ida Lupino, the lone lady of the bunch, would surely get at least a handful of votes. Orson Welles fans would have intricately detailed arguments for why their guy deserved to be on the list. Others would argue in favor of Edward Dmytryk, Robert Wise, Nicholas Ray, Jacques Tourneur, and Robert Siodmak. Despite his debatable noir pedigree, Alfred Hitchcock would probably get at least a few mentions. However, there’s one name that probably wouldn’t come up often, Ursini.

  • The Television Works of Bernard Herrmann
    Television Works of Bernard Herrmann By William Wrobel While Bernard Herrmann is generally best known as a feature film composer, he also established a prodigious amount of work for both radio and television. The scope of this paper is Herrmann’s television music that ranges from his first (“A Christmas Carol”) in December 1954 to his known final one (an episode of The Virginian titled “Last Grave At Socorro Creek”) in early 1969. The format of this paper is to elaborate, at least in part, on each of his works for the “small screen” based on as complete a list that can be presently verified. This presentation will not necessarily be based in factual, chronological order since exact dates of completion are rarely given in his television scores (unlike most of his feature film works). A list based on original airdates would be logical, but this would not be applicable to his television “suites” (such as the so-called Western Saga suite or collection of thematic cues). Such suites for the CBS-TV Music Library were composed for the purpose of being later “tracked” when needed as part of a body of “stock” music for episodes of CBS series which had no original score, tracked in by a music editor (usually Gene Feldman). For purposes of simplicity, the sequence of this paper’s presentation of Herrmann’s television works will be based according to the two only entertainment entities he did television work for: CBS and Universal-Revue Studios (the latter productions usually aired on the NBC network). Only in one case (“The Richard Boone Show”) were the shows produced at MGM Studios for NBC.
