    'Stan and Ollie' A Screenplay By Jeff Pope Stan and Ollie - Goldenrod Revisions 20.04.17 1 BLACK. UNDER THIS this we hear a conversation. HARDY (V.O.) ... so Madelyn turned up. LAUREL (V.O.) Madelyn turned up? HARDY (V.O.) Completely out of the blue. Haven’t seen her in fifteen years... 1INT. DRESSING ROOM/ROACH LOT/STUDIO - DAY 1 Oliver HARDY leans against the door to a dressing room, worried expression, talking to his friend Stan LAUREL. Both are in their late-40s, (at the peak of their movie careers), but to begin with we have no real clue as to who they are, where they are or what they do. They are just two guys in cheap suits talking to each other. HARDY lights up a cigarette as he talks. HARDY There she was, all gussied up on the front door step. And that’s something I never thought I’d see again. LAUREL picks up a boot (the right one) with a large hole in the sole. Using a knife he levers off the heel. LAUREL What’d she want? HARDY Twenty thousand bucks. LAUREL Twenty thousand? HARDY Fifteen years of back alimony. I ** said ‘what alimony? When we broke ** up I gave you whatever money I had ** and you took the car.’ We both ** agreed that was that. LAUREL Jeez even Mae wasn’t after that much - and she wanted me to pay for a chauffeur. It’s because our faces ** are plastered all over town. ** Probably some lawyer’s bright idea. ** LAUREL levers off the other heel.

RECENT DEVELOPMENT INHERITABILITY OF THE RIGHT OF PUBLICITY UPON THE DEATH OF THE FAMOUS I. INTRODUCTION The exploitation of famous names and likenesses in the mar- keting of consumer products involves huge sums of money.1 Courts have recognized, albeit haphazardly, the tremendous pecuniary value of celebrity endorsements and have afforded individuals the right to exclusive control over their names and likenesses. 2 Al- though courts have applied various labels to this guarantee, s the term most commonly used is "right of publicity."'4 Given the large amount of money at stake, clear delineation of the scope of this right is imperative. Recently, however, state and federal courts5 have reached divergent results concerning the inheritability of the right of publicity upon the death of the famous.

Particular thanks go out to my dissertation group -- Kyle Barnett, Christopher Lucas, Afsheen Nomai, Allison Perlman, and Jennifer Petersen – who read many early drafts of this project and always offered constructive feedback and enthusiastic encouragement. I would also like to thank Hector Amaya, Mary Beltran, Geoff Betts, Marnie Binfield, Alexis Carreiro, Marian Clarke, Caroline Frick, Hollis Griffin, Karen Gustafson, Sharon Shahaf, Yaron Shemer, and David Uskovich for their generosity of time and patience in reading drafts and listening to my concerns without ever making these feel like impositions.

The Copyright Clause imposes limits on Congress’s power to create exclusive rights. Those rights must be for limited times and must promote the progress of science. The CTEA’s retrospective term extension is outside of those limits and is therefore unconstitutional ............................... 4 A. The only congressional justification for retrospective term extension that is potentially relevant to “promot[ing] the Progress” is the film preservation rationale ................... 4 B. The film preservation rationale is logically and legally unsound ............................ 6 1. Giving incentives for film preservation through retrospective term extension is not within the ambit of Congress’s power to promote the progress of science by encouraging the creation of original works .. 6 2. The argument that the CTEA is justified by the need to encourage digitization and “media migration” is an argument without a ii limiting principle and thus flies in the face of this Court’s recent holdings ..............

    II. Remembrance & Representation Figure 1. Benson Fong, Beulah Quo, and George Takei on the set of My Three Sons. 2016 Amerasia Journal Amerasia 96 Amerasia Journal 42:2 (2016): 96-117 10.17953/aj.42.1.96 The Asian American Next Door Enfiguring the Model Minority on the Domestic Melodrama Melissa Phruksachart In the years between the mass incarceration of Japanese Americans (1942-1946) and the 1965 Immigration Act, what prepared the Ameri- can public to recognize and validate the term “model minority?” This essay proposes a televisual genealogy of the model minority as dis- tinct from the 1966 formulation published by The New York Times in William Petersen’s feature “Success Story, Japanese-American Style.”1 Building upon prior scholarship, I inquire into the early Cold War log- ics that precipitated the popular rise of the model minority figure in 1966. In particular, I point to network television as an archive that circulated the structures of feeling necessary for the model minority to take hold. By doing so, I place recent histories of Asian American do- mesticity during the Cold War era into closer conversation with U.S. popular culture, particularly television. While popular media histories lament the rarity of Asian Ameri- cans on television, I identify the trope of the Asian American neigh- bor as increasingly common on television in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Both the television industry and Asian American communities found themselves rapidly growing in size in mid-1950s California. At stake for both the television industry and Asian American commu- nities was the chance to be “domesticated” into the American home.

For David Vincent, architect, return- 2018 Officers ing home from a business trip, it began at a few minutes past four on a lost President Rebecca Farnbach Tuesday morning, looking for a shortcut that he never found. It began with a Vice President Shari Crall welcoming sign that gave hope of black coffee. It began with a closed, deserted Secretary Cheryl Cady Treasurer Roger Cudé diner and a man too long without sleep to continue his journey. In the weeks to Past President Dick Fox come, David Vincent would go back to how it began many times.” So begins the Prologue of the premiere-pilot episode of the 1960s sci-fi Directors TV series The Invaders, starring Roy Thinnes as David Vincent, in which Lynn Cudé much of this historic episode was filmed on location in Old Town Temecula in Elaine Culverhouse March 1966. The episode, titled “Beachhead”, serves as a convenient video Suzanne Dechert time capsule of Temecula’s Old Town area as it was some five decades ago. Elaine Eshom “Beachhead” was broadcast for the first time on the ABC Network on January Darell Farnbach 10, 1967. Jeffery Harmon Bob Kent The fast paced TV series was the brainchild of TV creator Larry Co- Bonnie Martland hen, who modeled the show on the very successful “man-on-the-run” TV series Carol Strode The Fugitive as well as inspirations from past Alfred Hitchcock films like North By Northwest, The 39 Steps and Saboteur as well as 1950s era sci-fi movies Committee Chairs like Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
