  • H.M.S. Giang Bee
    H.M.S. GIANG BEE - Sunk by Japanese destroyer on 13th February 1942 Researched passenger list [Version 1. 2. 0; March 2010] The “HMS Giang Bee”, a Chinese-owned coastal steamer requisitioned and used as a patrol vessel, left Singapore Harbour – according to a statement made by a number of those who were on board – at 10p.m. on Thursday 12th February 1942. Although Captain Lancaster, in command of the ship, initially refused to take civilian passengers because he saw the dangers attached to a ship designated as a warship, she was loaded with up to 300 refugees ( one survivor, Gordon Reis believed there to be 350 people on board) who were mostly women, children and the elderly. All her Malay crew had been ordered ashore in Singapore before she left, so that the crew consisted of a handful of RNVR personnel and some passengers who volunteered to be stokers etc. She was bombed and suffered damage during the day of 13th February, and in the evening, after a long stand- off with a Japanese destroyer, she was shelled and sunk in the Banka Strait. There had never been enough lifeboats for those on board, and two of them had been seriously damaged by the day’s bombing. Due to this and the speed with which the ship sank, a large number of lives were lost. Whilst there appears to have initially been an attempt by the Japanese to handle the surrender of the ship in a somewhat civilised manner, in the final event the Japanese warships showed no humanity or decency when they were in full knowledge that the ship contained civilians and a huge number of women and children.

  • Orourke JBCTV Article
    Exploiting Ambiguity: Murder! and the Meanings of Cross-Dressing in Interwar British Cinema Chris O’Rourke Journal of British Cinema and Television – accepted manuscript Abstract: The crime film Murder! (1930), directed by Alfred Hitchcock for British International Pictures, and based on the novel Enter Sir John (1929) by Clemence Dane and Helen Simpson, has long been cited in debates about the treatment of queer sexuality in Hitchcock’s films. Central to these debates is the character of Handel Fane and the depiction of his cross-dressed appearances as a theatre and circus performer, which many critics have understood as a coded reference to homosexuality. This article ex- plores such critical interpretations by situating Murder! more firmly in its historical context. In particular, it examines Fane’s cross-dressed performances in relation to other cultural representations of men’s cross-dressing in interwar Britain. These in- clude examples from other British and American films, stories in the popular press and the publicityACCEPTED surrounding the aerial performer MANUSCRIPT and female impersonator Barbette (Vander Clyde). The article argues that Murder! reflects and exploits a broader fascin- ation with gender ambiguity in British popular culture, and that it anticipates the more insistent vilification of queer men in the decades after the Second World War. Keywords: Alfred Hitchcock; British film; cross-dressing; queer film; queer history 1 Introduction Murder! (1930), a mystery-thriller directed by Alfred Hitchcock for British In- ternational Pictures, and co-written by Walter C. Mycroft and Alma Reville, was pro- duced in the midst of the British cinema’s transition to synchronised sound.

A further recording dated 16th October 1996 is also included towards the end of this transcript. Roy Fowler suggests this was as a result of his regular lunches with Roy Ward Baker, at which they decided that some matters covered needed further detail. [DS 2017] Interviewer Roy Fowler [RF]. This transcript is not verbatim. SIDE 1 TAPE 1 RF: When and where were you born? RWB: London in 1916 in Hornsey. RF: Did your family have any connection with the business you ultimately entered? RWB: None whatsoever, no history of it in the family. RF: Was it an ambition on your part or was it an accidental entry eventually into films? How did you come into the business? RWB: I was fairly lucky in that I knew exactly what I wanted to do or at least I thought I did. At the age of something like fourteen I’d had rather a chequered upbringing in an educa- tional sense and lived in a lot of different places. I had been taken to see silent movies when I was a child It was obviously premature because usually I was carried out in scream- ing hysterics. There was one famous one called The Chess Player which was very dramatic and German and all that. I had no feeling for films. I had seen one or two Charlie Chaplin films which people showed at children's parties in those days on a 16mm projector.
