CFP: Gender in the Golden 80S (Film & History Conference 6/1/14; 10/29/14)
H-Film CFP: Gender in the Golden 80s (Film & History conference 6/1/14; 10/29/14) Discussion published by Laura M. D'Amore on Monday, April 14, 2014 The 1980s is its own “golden age” of film when considering the idea/ls of gender contained within its borders. The era indulged representations of high-testosterone masculinity (such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, and Bruce Willis) and vulnerable femininity (such as Molly Ringwald and Ally Sheedy). And, while films of the decade were also capable of imagining men who were strong and sensitive (like Eric Stoltz in Some Kind of Wonderful, Rob Lowe in About Last Night, and Judd Nelson in The Breakfast Club), there were far fewer roles for women that broke from stereotypically feminized characterizations (like Linda Hamilton inTerminator , Lea Thompson in Back to the Future, and Demi Moore in St. Elmo’s Fire). What can an examination of gender roles in the films of the 1980s tell us about a decade that was fraught with a crisis of identity, simultaneously proud and insecure The( Outsiders, Dirty Dancing, Less Than Zero), strong and vulnerable (War Games, Red Dawn) real and imagined (Robocop, Predator)? How might we interrogate gender in American films of the 1980s, in order to better understand the ironies and anxieties contained within them? Possible paper topics include, but are not limited to the following topics as embodied in 1980s films: Representations of masculinity and femininity in film and television Character/izations that disrupt gender norms The relationship between gender and culture, i.e. politics, economy, the Cold War, post- industrialization Gendered tensions between characters, actors, filmmakers, etc.

275. – Part One
275. – PART ONE 275. Clifford (1994) Okay, here’s the deal: I don’t know you, you don’t know me, but if you are anywhere near a television right now I need you to stop whatever it is that you’re doing and go watch “Clifford” on HBO Max. This is another film that has a 10% score on Rotten Tomatoes which just leads me to believe that all of the critics who were popular in the nineties didn’t have a single shred of humor in any of their non-existent funny bones. I loved this movie when I was seven, and I love it even more when I’m thirty-three. It’s genius. Martin Short (who at the time was forty-four) plays a ten-year-old hyperactive nightmare child from hell. I mean it, this kid might actually be the devil. He is straight up evil, conniving, manipulative and all-told probably causes no less than ten million dollars-worth of property damage. And, again, the plot is so simple – he just wants to go to Dinosaur World. There are so many comedy films with such complicated plots and motivations for their characters, but the simplistic genius of “Clifford” is just this – all this kid wants on the entire planet is to go to Dinosaur World. That’s it. The movie starts with him and his parents on an plane to Hawaii for a business trip, and Clifford knows that Dinosaur Land is in Los Angeles, therefore he causes so much of a ruckus that the plane has to make an emergency landing.

ReFocus: The Films of John Hughes 66769_Shary769_Shary & SSmith.inddmith.indd i 110/03/210/03/21 111:501:50 AAMM ReFocus: The American Directors Series Series Editors: Robert Singer, Frances Smith, and Gary D. Rhodes Editorial Board: Kelly Basilio, Donna Campbell, Claire Perkins, Christopher Sharrett, and Yannis Tzioumakis ReFocus is a series of contemporary methodological and theoretical approaches to the interdisciplinary analyses and interpretations of neglected American directors, from the once-famous to the ignored, in direct relationship to American culture—its myths, values, and historical precepts. The series ignores no director who created a historical space—either in or out of the studio system—beginning from the origins of American cinema and up to the present. These directors produced film titles that appear in university film history and genre courses across international boundaries, and their work is often seen on television or available to download or purchase, but each suffers from a form of “canon envy”; directors such as these, among other important figures in the general history of American cinema, are underrepresent ed in the critical dialogue, yet each has created American narratives, works of film art, that warrant attention. ReFocus brings these American film directors to a new audience of scholars and general readers of both American and Film Studies. Titles in the series include: ReFocus: The Films of Preston Sturges Edited by Jeff Jaeckle and Sarah Kozloff ReFocus: The Films of Delmer Daves Edited by Matthew Carter and Andrew Nelson ReFocus: The Films of Amy Heckerling Edited by Frances Smith and Timothy Shary ReFocus: The Films of Budd Boetticher Edited by Gary D.

'STRAIGHT from the HEART' Cast Bios TERI POLO
‘STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART’ Cast Bios TERI POLO (Jordan Donovan) – Rising star Teri Polo starred in one of the top-rated theatrical films of 2000 “Meet the Parents,” playing the role of Pamela Byrnes opposite Ben Stiller. Due to the success of the original, Ms. Polo will be back in the sequel “Meet the Fockers,” playing Pamela Byrnes Focker. Other notable films Ms. Polo has recently starred in include “Domestic Disturbance” with John Travolta and “Second String” with Jon Voight. Ms. Polo has had multiple notable guest television appearances throughout the 1990s in hit comedies and dramas, including “Sports Night,” “Frasier,” “Felicity,” “Brimstone,” “Northern Exposure” and “Tales from the Crypt,” to name a few. Theatrical films include “Golden Gate,” “The House of Spirits,” “The Arrival,” “House of Frankenstein 1997,” “Quick,” “Aspen Extreme” and “The Phantom of the Opera.” TV films include Danielle Steele’s “Full Circle,” “The Van Helsing Chronicles,” “A Father for Brittany,” “Texarkana” and “The Marriage Fool.” But it is the sweeping popularity of the comedy “Meet the Parents” that launched Ms. Polo’s career into another strata. Upcoming projects for Ms. Polo in 2003 include “Unsaid” alongside Andy Garcia and “Dissolution” with Aidan Quinn. # # # HALLMARK CHANNEL/ “Straight From The Heart” Cast Bios – Page 2 ANDREW MCCARTHY (Tyler Ross) – A perpetually youthful actor who made his debut in “Class” (1983) and became associated (briefly) with the so-called “Brat Pack” of that decade, Mr. McCarthy’s vehicle to stardom came with the theatrical motion picture “St. Elmo’s Fire,” followed by “Heaven Help Us” (both 1985). Co-starring with Molly Ringwald as the unattainable heartthrob in “Pretty in Pink,” Andrew McCarthy’s popularity went to cult-like status.

Hooked on Hughes
Radboud University hooked on Hughes A feminist consideration of Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club and Pretty In Pink. Kelly Thijssen 3037320 American Studies – Bachelor Thesis Dr. Mathilde Roza 7 November 2016 Thijssen, 3037320/2 Abstract This thesis explores how John Hughes’s teen films Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club, and Pretty in Pink reinforce traditional ideas about gender, class, sexuality, and race. Each film was subjected to a combination of narrative and semiotic analysis, revealing that patriarchal ideals are embedded in Hughes’ film language. The findings of each analysis were then interpreted in a segment of discussion using feminist theory and cultural criticism of bell hooks as a primary source.
