  • Jeder Tag Ist Ein Geschenk«
    »Jeder Tag ist ein Geschenk« Menschen | Zum Tod der großen Schauspielerin Jeanne Moreau 2003 hatte Jeanne Moreau (halb im Scherz) einen künstlerischen Wunsch geäußert, der sich allerdings nie erfüllt hat: »Shakespeares Lear. Den spiele ich, wenn ich achtzig bin!« Von PETER MOHR Mit dem ›Lear‹ ist es zwar nichts geworden, doch die Blitzlichter der Fotografen zog sie bis ins hohe Alter immer noch beinahe magisch an, wie etwa bei ihrem Kurzauftritt als Ehrengast bei der Europäischen Filmpreisgala im Jahr 2007 in Berlin. Sie war nicht nur eine der wirklich großen Schauspielerinnen, sondern war auch der Schwarm einer ganzen Männergeneration, ihr Name wird in einem Atemzug mit Marlene Dietrich und Greta Garbo genannt, vom liebeshungrigen Luder bis zur rachsüchtigen Ehefrau hat sie alles verkörpert, und ihre eigene Vita würde genug Stoff für einen abendfüllenden Kinofilm hergeben. Jeanne Moreau, die am 23. Januar 1928 in Paris als Tochter eines Hoteliers geboren und als 20-jährige bereits in die ehrwürdige Comédie-Française aufgenommen wurde, hat als Schauspielerin nicht nur die großen Regisseure, sondern auch als Privatperson viele Prominente fasziniert: Louis Malle, Orson Welles, John Frankenheimer, Jean-Louis Richard (aus der Ehe stammt Sohn Jérome, der heute ein erfolgreicher Maler ist), Modeschöpfer Pierre Cardin, der 14 Jahre jüngere Schriftsteller Peter Handke, und der Regisseur Tony Richardson (die Affäre führte zu seiner Scheidung von Vanessa Redgrave) waren ihre Lebensgefährten. Zwar hatte Jeanne Moreau Anfang der 1950er Jahre auf der Theaterbühne unter der Regie von Peter Brook in Tennessee Willliams‘ ›Die Katze auf dem heißen Blechdach‹ und an der Seite von Lino Ventura und Jean Gabin als Luder Josy in ›Wenn es Nacht wird in Paris‹ (1953) für Furore gesorgt, doch der große Durchbruch gelang ihr ausgerechnet unter der Regie eines Debütanten – in Louis Malles ›Fahrstuhl zum Schafott‹ (1957).

  • JEANNE MOREAU: NOUVELLE VAGUE and BEYOND February 25 - March 18, 1994
    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release February 1994 JEANNE MOREAU: NOUVELLE VAGUE AND BEYOND February 25 - March 18, 1994 A film retrospective of the legendary French actress Jeanne Moreau, spanning her remarkable forty-five year career, opens at The Museum of Modern Art on February 25, 1994. JEANNE MOREAU: NOUVELLE VAGUE AND BEYOND traces the actress's steady rise from the French cinema of the 1950s and international renown as muse and icon of the New Wave movement to the present. On view through March 18, the exhibition shows Moreau to be one of the few performing artists who both epitomize and transcend their eras by the originality of their work. The retrospective comprises thirty films, including three that Moreau directed. Two films in the series are United States premieres: The Old Woman Mho Wades in the Sea (1991, Laurent Heynemann), and her most recent film, A Foreign Field (1993, Charles Sturridge), in which Moreau stars with Lauren Bacall and Alec Guinness. Other highlights include The Queen Margot (1953, Jean Dreville), which has not been shown in the United States since its original release; the uncut version of Eva (1962, Joseph Losey); the rarely seen Mata Hari, Agent H 21 (1964, Jean-Louis Richard), and Joanna Francesa (1973, Carlos Diegues). Alternately playful, seductive, or somber, Moreau brought something truly modern to the screen -- a compelling but ultimately elusive persona. After perfecting her craft as a principal member of the Comedie Frangaise and the Theatre National Populaire, she appeared in such films as Louis Malle's Elevator to the Gallows (1957) and The Lovers (1958), the latter of which she created a scandal with her portrayal of an adultress.

Robinson captured the particular feel and spirit of the tumultuous 1960s, but by 1972 he was burned out, himself a victim of the era's excesses. Having reached the pinnacle of his profession, he abruptly retreated from New York to pursue a quieter life in Memphis. After 1972, he took no more photographs, though he found a creative outlet in the design of stained glass windows. Jack Uther Robinson, Jr. was born in Meridian, Mississippi on September 18, 1928 to Jack Robinson, Sr. and Euline Jones Robinson. He grew up in Clarksdale, Mississippi, the literal heart of the Mississippi Delta, an area famous for racial injustice, the Blues, and social and religious conservatism. His father was a mechanic and auto parts dealer.

Tout le cercle du spectacle en effervescence, de la Diva jusqu'au librettiste, va essayer de se faire engager, afin d'entrevoir les quelques mois de tranquillité indispensables à ces artistes aux abois. Une magnifique occasion d'illustrer les pétillantes ressources des artistes de l'époque mais aussi leurs travers très humains, et leurs préoccupations très quotidiennes... peut-être pas si éloignées de celles des intermittents d'aujourd'hui ! Là où l'on peut espérer que le talent fait la différence, on s'aperçoit que les us et coutumes de la scène doivent être respectés à la lettre, sous peine de cruelle exclusion de ce petit monde. Un monde où la séduction, l'envie, l'engagement, la jalousie, frappent ceux qui se révèlent affaiblis par une situation fragilisante d'insécurité de l'emploi, et qui sont dévorés dans le même temps par l'irrépressible besoin d'être artiste.

  • Renormalizing Individual Performance Metrics for Cultural Heritage Management of Sports Records
    Renormalizing individual performance metrics for cultural heritage management of sports records Alexander M. Petersen1 and Orion Penner2 1Management of Complex Systems Department, Ernest and Julio Gallo Management Program, School of Engineering, University of California, Merced, CA 95343 2Chair of Innovation and Intellectual Property Policy, College of Management of Technology, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland. (Dated: April 21, 2020) Individual performance metrics are commonly used to compare players from different eras. However, such cross-era comparison is often biased due to significant changes in success factors underlying player achievement rates (e.g. performance enhancing drugs and modern training regimens). Such historical comparison is more than fodder for casual discussion among sports fans, as it is also an issue of critical importance to the multi- billion dollar professional sport industry and the institutions (e.g. Hall of Fame) charged with preserving sports history and the legacy of outstanding players and achievements. To address this cultural heritage management issue, we report an objective statistical method for renormalizing career achievement metrics, one that is par- ticularly tailored for common seasonal performance metrics, which are often aggregated into summary career metrics – despite the fact that many player careers span different eras. Remarkably, we find that the method applied to comprehensive Major League Baseball and National Basketball Association player data preserves the overall functional form of the distribution of career achievement, both at the season and career level. As such, subsequent re-ranking of the top-50 all-time records in MLB and the NBA using renormalized metrics indicates reordering at the local rank level, as opposed to bulk reordering by era.
