Bamcinématek Presents Blonde Venus: the Films of Dietrich & Von BAMcinématek presents Blonde Venus: The Films of Dietrich & von Sternberg, a retrospective of the seven collaborations between the incomparable pair, Apr 4—10 “One of the most dazzling runs of creativity in the history of the movies.”—Dave Kehr, The New York Times All films in 35mm The Wall Street Journal is the title sponsor for BAMcinématek and BAM Rose Cinemas. Brooklyn, NY/Mar XX, 2014—From Friday, April 4 through Thursday, April 10, BAMcinématek presents Blonde Venus: The Films of Dietrich & von Sternberg, a complete retrospective of their seven collaborations. An actor-director match made in Hollywood heaven, arch-stylist Josef von Sternberg found the perfect muse for his sumptuous experiments in lighting and mise-en- scène in the supremely glamorous screen siren Marlene Dietrich. Dietrich began her acting career with small parts in German films and on stage in Berlin and Vienna, but her breakout role came with von Sternberg’s The Blue Angel (1930—Apr 6), which quickly became an international star-making success. As cabaret singer Lola-Lola, the smoldering Dietrich seduces an unwitting professor (Emil Jannings) into a string of blunders that lead to his tragic downfall. The film introduced audiences to Dietrich’s signature song ―Falling in Love Again (Can’t Help It)‖—which has since been parodied by Danny Kaye in On the Double, Madeline Kahn in Blazing Saddles, Helmut Berger in Luchino Visconti’s The Damned, and countless others—and launched a partnership for the ages. BAMcinématek will screen the original German version (4, 6:30pm) as well as the long lost English-language version (8:45pm) for this series. Opening the series on Friday, April 4 is Dietrich and von Sternberg’s Hollywood debut, Morocco (1930). Dietrich (once again) plays a cabaret singer, donning her iconic tuxedo and tails in a performance that garnered her an Oscar nomination for Best Actress. Von Sternberg was nominated for Best Director for both Morocco and Shanghai Express (1932—Apr 4), memorable for its elegant chiaroscuro cinematography—perfectly orchestrated to illuminate Dietrich’s (notorious ―coaster‖ Shanghai Lily) stunning features. Boasting a whip-smart script by frequent von Sternberg collaborator Jules Furthman and an uncredited Howard Hawks, Shanghai Express was the highest grossing US film of 1932. Also screening are campy spy romance Dishonored (1931—Apr 7), for which von Sternberg directed, edited, wrote the screenplay, and composed original music; madcap pre-Code drama Blonde Venus (1932—Apr 9), featuring Cary Grant’s first leading role as a foolhardy playboy seduced by nightclub showgirl Dietrich; and the final collaboration between Dietrich and von Sternberg, Spanish melodrama The Devil is a Woman (1935—Apr 7 & 8). The pair never failed to bring out the best in each other, and as von Sternberg famously told Peter Bogdanovich, ―I am Miss Dietrich. Miss Dietrich is me.‖ For press information, please contact: Lisa Thomas at 718.724.8023 / [email protected] Hannah Thomas at 718.724.8002 / [email protected] Blonde Venus: The Films of Dietrich & von Sternberg Schedule Fri, Apr 4 2, 6, 9:50pm: Morocco 4, 8pm: Shanghai Express Sun, Apr 6 4, 6:30pm: The Blue Angel (German-language, 106min) 8:45pm: The Blue Angel (English-language, 100min) Mon, Apr 7 5:15, 9:15pm: Dishonored 7:15pm: The Devil is a Woman Tue, Apr 8 4:30pm: The Devil is a Woman Wed, Apr 9 4:30, 7, 9:45pm: Blonde Venus Thu, Apr 10 4:30, 7, 9:30pm: The Scarlet Empress Film Descriptions All films in 35mm. Blonde Venus (1932) 93min With Marlene Dietrich, Cary Grant, Herbert Marshall. Cary Grant’s first leading role was in this outlandish Dietrich-von Sternberg pre-Code gem. When an American scientist (Marshall) suffers chemical poisoning, his former-showgirl wife (Dietrich) takes to the German nightclub stage to foot the medical bills, seducing a foolhardy playboy (Grant) along the way. Get ready for fireworks when hubby finally recovers! Wed, Apr 9 at 4:30, 7*, 9:45pm *Post-screening discussion The Blue Angel (1930) 106min/100min With Emil Jannings, Marlene Dietrich, Kurt Gerro. Dietrich and von Sternberg rocketed to international superstardom with this German production, in which she plays nightclub singer Lola-Lola, who leads a milquetoast schoolteacher (the extraordinary, touching Emil Jannings) down a road to ruin. Seductively crooning her signature song, ―Falling in Love Again,‖ Dietrich’s star quality is apparent from frame one of this lacerating depiction of sadomasochistic love. Sun, Apr 6 at 4, 6:30pm (German-language, 106min) Sun, Apr 6 at 8:45pm (English-language, 100min) The Devil is a Woman (1935) 79min With Marlene Dietrich, Lionel Atwill, Edward Everett Horton. Dietrich and von Sternberg headed to Spain for their final collaboration, in which she plays Concha Perez, a beautiful seductress whose fickle ways drive rival suitors to extremes. Von Sternberg’s coldly formalist approach lends the melodramatic proceedings a cruel, ironic edge as passions and tempers boil over in an abstract world of glittering surfaces. Mon, Apr 7 at 7:15pm Tue, Apr 8 at 4:30pm Dishonored (1931) 91min With Marlene Dietrich, Victor McLaglen, Gustav von Seyffertitz. Dietrich shows dazzling range—and a dazzling array of costume changes—as Agent X-27, a Mata Hari- esque spy who mixes business and pleasure during World War I. Highlighted by a feverish masked ball sequence, Dishonored—said to be a favorite of Godard’s—―takes high camp as a springboard to the dream-delirium that makes Sternberg one of the screen’s Surrealist poets of l’amour fou‖ (Raymond Durgnat). Mon, Apr 7 at 5:15, 9:15pm Morocco (1930) 92min With Gary Cooper, Marlene Dietrich, Adolphe Menjou. In her first American film, Dietrich established her iconic look as Amy Jolly, the tuxedo-clad cabaret singer with a checkered past, who smooches a woman during a performance. Aboard a ship bound for Morocco, she develops a yen for a restless legionnaire (a very comely Cooper). Von Sternberg conjures a heady exoticism from the desert locale, and caps it off with an unforgettable final shot. Fri, Apr 4 at 2, 6, 9:50pm The Scarlet Empress (1934) 104min With Marlene Dietrich, John Lodge, Sam Jaffe. Sternberg’s deranged vision of 18th-century Russia in The Scarlet Empress was his most crazily over- the-top visual extravaganza. Dietrich goes from being the blushing bride of the half-wit Grand Duke to S&M-freak empress Catherine the Great, while Sternberg revels in the impossibly ornate architectural details of the palace setting—an expressionist riot of gargoyles, flickering candles, and looming shadows. Thu, Apr 10 at 4:30, 7, 9:30pm Shanghai Express (1932) 80min With Marlene Dietrich, Clive Brook, Anna May Wong. It’s romance and intrigue aboard the titular locomotive, carrying a shady cargo-load of societal castoffs— including notorious man-eater Shanghai Lily (Dietrich). Von Sternberg explores the emotional capacities of light and shadow to transcendent effect; the hyper-stylized look and feel somehow give way to haunting, dreamlike moments of pure feeling. Fri, Apr 4 at 4, 8pm About BAMcinématek The four-screen BAM Rose Cinemas (BRC) opened in 1998 to offer Brooklyn audiences alternative and independent films that might not play in the borough otherwise, making BAM the only performing arts center in the country with two mainstage theaters and a multiplex cinema.

In addition, BAMcinématek programmed the first US retrospectives of directors Arnaud Desplechin, Nicolas Winding Refn, Hong Sang-soo, and, most recently, Andrzej Zulawski. From 2006 to 2008, BAMcinématek partnered with the Sundance Institute and in June 2009 launched BAMcinemaFest, a 16-day festival of new independent films and repertory favorites with 15 NY feature film premieres; the fifth annual BAMcinemaFest ran from June 19—28, 2013.

  • Greatest Year with 476 Films Released, and Many of Them Classics, 1939 Is Often Considered the Pinnacle of Hollywood Filmmaking
    The Greatest Year With 476 films released, and many of them classics, 1939 is often considered the pinnacle of Hollywood filmmaking. To celebrate that year’s 75th anniversary, we look back at directors creating some of the high points—from Mounument Valley to Kansas. OVER THE RAINBOW: (opposite) Victor Fleming (holding Toto), Judy Garland and producer Mervyn LeRoy on The Wizard of Oz Munchkinland set on the MGM lot.

  • 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.

  • Stardom: Industry of Desire 1
    STARDOM What makes a star? Why do we have stars? Do we want or need them? Newspapers, magazines, TV chat shows, record sleeves—all display a proliferation of film star images. In the past, we have tended to see stars as cogs in a mass entertainment industry selling desires and ideologies. But since the 1970s, new approaches have explored the active role of the star in producing meanings, pleasures and identities for a diversity of audiences. Stardom brings together some of the best recent writing which represents these new approaches. Drawn from film history, sociology, textual analysis, audience research, psychoanalysis and cultural politics, the essays raise important questions for the politics of representation, the impact of stars on society and the cultural limitations and possibilities of stars.

  • Audience Guide Written and Compiled by Jack Marshall March 30–April 28
    Audience Guide Written and compiled by Jack Marshall March 30–April 28 Theater you can afford to see— plays you can’t afford to miss! About The American Century Theater The American Century Theater was founded in 1994. We are a professional company dedicated to presenting great, important, but overlooked American plays of the twentieth century . what Henry Luce called “the American Century.” The company’s mission is one of rediscovery, enlightenment, and perspective, not nostalgia or preservation. Americans must not lose the extraordinary vision and wisdom of past playwrights, nor can we afford to surrender our moorings to our shared cultural heritage. Our mission is also driven by a conviction that communities need theater, and theater needs audiences. To those ends, this company is committed to producing plays that challenge and move all Americans, of all ages, origins and points of view. In particular, we strive to create theatrical experiences that entire families can watch, enjoy, and discuss long afterward. These audience guides are part of our effort to enhance the appreciation of these works, so rich in history, content, and grist for debate. The American Century Theater is a 501(c)(3) professional nonprofit theater company dedicated to producing significant 20th Century American plays and musicals at risk of being forgotten. This program is supported in part by the Arlington County Cultural Affairs Division of Arlington Economic Development and the Arlington Commission for the Arts, the Virginia Commission for the Arts, the National Endowment for the Arts, and many generous donors.
