  • 'See It Big!' Series Celebrates Movie Musicals
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ‘SEE IT BIG!’ SERIES CELEBRATES MOVIE MUSICALS Fourteen spectacular singing/dancing extravaganzas including All That Jazz, The Sound of Music, Pennies from Heaven, The Wiz, and more January 24–February 28, 2014 Astoria, New York, January 2, 2014—The Museum of the Moving Image’s popular series See It Big! will turn its focus to the movie musical with a fourteen-film celebration of the genre, from January 24 through February 28, 2014. Musicals are, by their very nature, filled with spectacle. They are heightened forms of storytelling, in which the narrative is amplified by song and dance, where characters express their innermost feelings in the most extravagant ways imaginable. It is a genre that celebrates excess and stylization, and the best examples of the form can only be truly enjoyed… big! Among the titles are two of the first films produced at the rejuvenated Astoria studio— across the street from the Museum—in the 1970s: Series opener All That Jazz (1979) is choreographer and director Bob Fosse’s largely autobiographical tour de force featuring a lithe and passionate Roy Scheider as Fosse’s alter ego (January 24); The Wiz (1978), directed by Sidney Lumet, reimagines The Wizard of Oz in a gritty urban fantasy land and stars Diana Ross, Michael Jackson, and Nipsey Russell (February 7). Production materials from The Wiz are currently on view at the Museum in Lights, Camera, Astoria!, an exhibition exploring the history of the Astoria studio (on view through February 9), and also in the core exhibition Behind the Screen. Two other 1970s musicals also feature in the series.

After analyzing a whole spectrum of techniques capable of effecting a transition between past and present – blurs, fades, dis- solves, and so on – he concluded: “Our discussions indicate that cinema has not (yet) devel- oped the complexity of tense structures found in literary works”.2 His “yet” (in parentheses) was an instance of laudable caution, as very soon – in some ten–fifteen years – the situation would change drastically, and temporal twists would become a trademark of a new genre that has not (yet) acquired a standardized name: “modular narratives”, “puzzle films”, and “complex films” are among the labels used.3 Here is an example: Christopher Nolan’s Me- mento (2000) contains 85 anachronies (i.e. flashbacks or flashforwards) – something that would have been hard to imagine in 1983.4 Memento is probably an extreme case – the most puzzlingly complex of all complex films – but the tendency towards using more anachronies has become widespread, although in less extreme forms.

  • After the Invasion from Mars: Orson Welles and RKO
    After the Invasion from Mars: Orson Welles and RKO In October 1938 Orson Welles and the Mercury Theatre on the Air stunned the nation with their radio broadcast of H. G. Wells' The War of the Worlds , making the 23-year-old Welles an instant celeb­ rity. At the same time the motion picture studio RKO Pictures was undergoing another of its many financial crises. George Schaefer, head of RKO, offered Welles an unprecedented contract to write, produce, direct, and act in three motion pictures, with the hope that Welles could increase RKO's reputation and its box-office re­ ceipts. This contract, which Welles accepted, created a vast amount of publicity, much of it unfavorable to Welles who was termed the "boy wonder" by the press. The unfavorable publicity was a por­ tent of the often stormy relationship between Welles and RKO from 1939 to 1942. Following his arrival in Hollywood in 1939, Welles decided that his first film would be an adaptation of Joseph Conrad's story of the Congo, Heart of Darkness. In this film Welles conceived that the camera would play the role of Marlowe while he would have the part of Kurtz. Over one hundred items in the Lilly Library's collection of Welles manuscripts relate to this project, including three drafts of the script, descriptions of camera shots, an over-all schedule from the preliminary budget to cutting and scoring, lists of the cast, memos about budget meetings, pre-budget estimates, budget revisions, staff and cast salaries, and publicity materials. There is also a series of photographs showing make-up details for Welles' character.

  • Shirley Maclaine at BFI Southbank in June 2012
    PRESS RELEASE May 2012 12/24 Shirley MacLaine at BFI Southbank in June 2012 Throughout June 2012, BFI Southbank dedicates a season to Shirley MacLaine, the award-winning actress, author and sister of Warren Beatty (who also enjoys a companion season of his film work throughout the month). The season is set to encompass a career that has spanned over 60 years and which, with a highly anticipated role in the upcoming series of Downton Abbey (ITV) around the corner, shows little sign of slowing down. Highlights are set to include screenings of Minnelli’s Some Came Running (1958) which gave her first Oscar nomination as well as a recurring relationship with the Bratpack, Sweet Charity (1969) that features MacLaine’s signature song ‘If My Friends Could See Me Now’, Terms of Endearment (1983) that produced her first Oscar win and an extended run of the evergreen satire The Apartment (1960). Having danced from the age of three, MacLaine started out on Broadway as a chorus girl and stand-in. Plucked from the stage by a talent-spotting producer and promptly signed to Paramount, she embarked upon her film career. As a Hollywood ingénue, her first film role came with Alfred Hitchcock, in The Trouble With Harry (1955) earning her the first of many Golden Globe Awards before working with equally prestigious filmmakers like Billy Wilder and William Wyler. Learning the tricks of the trade from her fellow actors, she credited Marlene Dietrich for teaching her lighting and beauty tips for the screen during the filming of Around the World in Eighty Days (1956).
