  • Aspects of Film Noir: Alan Ladd in the 40'S
    The Museum of Modern Art 50th Anniversary NO. 38 •JO RELEASE ON OR BEFORE JULY 11, 1980 "ASPECTS OF FILM NOIR: ALAN LAPP IN THE 40*5" OPENS AT MoMA ON JULY 11, 1980 A series of four important Alan Ladd films forms ASPECTS OF FILM NOIR: ALAN LADD IN THE 40'S, an exhibition running from July 11 through July 15, 1980 at The Museum of Modern Art. To be shown in the series are: THIS GUN FOR HIRE, Ladd's first starring role; THE GLASS KEY; THE BLUE DAHLIA; and the 1949 Paramount production of the F. Scott Fitzgerald classic, THE GREAT GATSBY. The films will be shown in 35mm studio prints made available by Universal/MCA and the UCLA Film Archives. Notes from The Museum's Department of Film indicate that "During the 1940's Hollywood studios produced a large number of crime melodramas whose stylistic con­ sistency has since been given the name of 'Film Noir'. These shadowy and urbane films not only commanded consummate studio craftsmanship, but enabled a charismatic group of performers to express the tensions that provided the thematic content for the 'Film Noir'. At Paramount Pictures during the 1940's perhaps the emblematic figure of the 'Film Noir' was Alan Ladd." The series opens with THIS GUN FOR HIRE at 8:30 PM on Friday, July 11 (to be repeated at 6 PM on Sunday, July 13). The film was directed by Frank Tuttle in 1942 with Ladd, Veronica Lake and Robert Preston and runs 81 minutes. THIS GUN FOR HIRE was the film that launched Ladd's career.

  • Ronald Davis Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts
    Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts in America Southern Methodist University The Southern Methodist University Oral History Program was begun in 1972 and is part of the University’s DeGolyer Institute for American Studies. The goal is to gather primary source material for future writers and cultural historians on all branches of the performing arts- opera, ballet, the concert stage, theatre, films, radio, television, burlesque, vaudeville, popular music, jazz, the circus, and miscellaneous amateur and local productions. The Collection is particularly strong, however, in the areas of motion pictures and popular music and includes interviews with celebrated performers as well as a wide variety of behind-the-scenes personnel, several of whom are now deceased. Most interviews are biographical in nature although some are focused exclusively on a single topic of historical importance. The Program aims at balancing national developments with examples from local history. Interviews with members of the Dallas Little Theatre, therefore, serve to illustrate a nation-wide movement, while film exhibition across the country is exemplified by the Interstate Theater Circuit of Texas. The interviews have all been conducted by trained historians, who attempt to view artistic achievements against a broad social and cultural backdrop. Many of the persons interviewed, because of educational limitations or various extenuating circumstances, would never write down their experiences, and therefore valuable information on our nation’s cultural heritage would be lost if it were not for the S.M.U. Oral History Program. Interviewees are selected on the strength of (1) their contribution to the performing arts in America, (2) their unique position in a given art form, and (3) availability.
