  • 213 Nothing Like the South: Aurora Greenway – a Belle
    NOTHING LIKE THE SOUTH: AURORA GREENWAY – A BELLE IN EXILE Anca Peiu University of Bucharest Larry McMurtry’s Terms of Endearment has been better known as a 1983 successful silver-screen story than as a 1975 best-selling novel, rather as a multiplereceiver of Academy Awards than as a most accomplished book by a prolific author and Pulitzer Prize winner. My return to it is justified by some recently read essays – neither on the film, nor on the book – but on the Belle and the South (indeed, an archetypal coupling somehow echoing Beauty and the Beast ). As for my title here – it oscillates between two Shakesperean sonnets: Sonnet 130 and Sonnet 3. Both poems appeal particularly to the sense of sight ; they are versions of that type of painting (also fiction) known as a portrait of a lady – who stays the lady even if she defies any canon of lady-likelihood – both as Shakespeare’s (image of the) lover and as McMurtry’s Southern Belle – from My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun… Thou art thy mother’s glass, and she in thee Calls back the lovely April of her prime; So thou through windows of thine age shalt see, Despight of wrinkles, this thy golden time… The latter quote opens Larry McMurtry’s novel, as a necessary motto. It evokes a specific traditional relationship: mother-daughter, by the classic symbol of the mirror . It could send us – via Larry McMurtry’s novel – to Katherine Henninger’s astute study of the impact of photography on the Visual Legacies of the South: Picture a southern woman .

  • Actors' Stories Are a SAG Awards® Tradition
    Actors' Stories are a SAG Awards® Tradition When the first Screen Actors Guild Awards® were presented on March 8, 1995, the ceremony opened with a speech by Angela Lansbury introducing the concept behind the SAG Awards and the Actor® statuette. During her remarks she shared a little of her own history as a performer: "I've been Elizabeth Taylor's sister, Spencer Tracy's mistress, Elvis' mother and a singing teapot." She ended by telling the audience of SAG Awards nominees and presenters, "Tonight is dedicated to the art and craft of acting by the people who should know about it: actors. And remember, you're one too!" Over the Years This glimpse into an actor’s life was so well received that it began a tradition of introducing each Screen Actors Guild Awards telecast with a distinguished actor relating a brief anecdote and sharing thoughts about what the art and craft mean on a personal level. For the first eight years of the SAG Awards, just one actor performed that customary opening. For the 9th Annual SAG Awards, however, producer Gloria Fujita O'Brien suggested a twist. She observed it would be more representative of the acting profession as a whole if several actors, drawn from all ages and backgrounds, told shorter versions of their individual journeys. To add more fun and to emphasize the universal truths of being an actor, the producers decided to keep the identities of those storytellers secret until they popped up on camera. An August Lineage Ever since then, the SAG Awards have begun with several of these short tales, typically signing off with his or her name and the evocative line, "I Am an Actor™." So far, audiences have been delighted by 107 of these unique yet quintessential Actors' Stories.

On the brink of adolescence, young John McGill is a bright and sensitive boy, eager to learn and full of promise. But, the cards are stacked against him. Most of the adults in his life fail him in one way or another. His father is a drunken violent bully and his teachers – punishing John for the „sins‟ of his older brother, Benny – are down on him from the start.
