  • Raoul Walsh to Attend Opening of Retrospective Tribute at Museum
    The Museum of Modern Art jl west 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modernart NO. 34 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE RAOUL WALSH TO ATTEND OPENING OF RETROSPECTIVE TRIBUTE AT MUSEUM Raoul Walsh, 87-year-old film director whose career in motion pictures spanned more than five decades, will come to New York for the opening of a three-month retrospective of his films beginning Thursday, April 18, at The Museum of Modern Art. In a rare public appearance Mr. Walsh will attend the 8 pm screening of "Gentleman Jim," his 1942 film in which Errol Flynn portrays the boxing champion James J. Corbett. One of the giants of American filmdom, Walsh has worked in all genres — Westerns, gangster films, war pictures, adventure films, musicals — and with many of Hollywood's greatest stars — Victor McLaglen, Gloria Swanson, Douglas Fair­ banks, Mae West, James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, Marlene Dietrich and Edward G. Robinson, to name just a few. It is ultimately as a director of action pictures that Walsh is best known and a growing body of critical opinion places him in the front rank with directors like Ford, Hawks, Curtiz and Wellman. Richard Schickel has called him "one of the best action directors...we've ever had" and British film critic Julian Fox has written: "Raoul Walsh, more than any other legendary figure from Hollywood's golden past, has truly lived up to the early cinema's reputation for 'action all the way'...." Walsh's penchant for action is not surprising considering he began his career more than 60 years ago as a stunt-rider in early "westerns" filmed in the New Jersey hills.

In 1889 in what is to become Oklahoma Territory the Cherokee Strip is just a graz­ ing area owned by Indians and worked day and night be the itinerant cowboys called 'tumbleweeds'.

    DIZIONARIO DEI FILM WESTERN A cura di Mario Raciti Fonti Dizionario Morandini 2008 Mymovies.it Film.tv.it Dedicato agli amici di Farwest.it A Accidenti, che ospitalità! Our Hospitality USA 1923 REGIA: Buster Keaton, John G. Blystone ATTORI: Buster Keaton, Natalie Talmadge, Joe Roberts * Una faida tra le famiglie Canfield e McKay funge da prologo. Allevato a New York da una zia, Will McKay torna dopo vent'anni al paese natale del West dove i Canfield tentano di ucciderlo. Finché è sotto il loro tetto, però, non possono farlo. E lui sposa una di loro. 2o film lungo di Keaton e uno dei suoi capolavori. È un western nel quale il comico non nasce dalla parodia ma dalla incongruità del personaggio Keaton mentre tutti gli altri sono costruiti secondo gli schemi classici e si comportano come tali. È una rivisitazione straniata che s'impernia, come il solito, sullo spostamento delle funzioni degli oggetti, sull'altalena tra sembrare ed essere. DURATA: 74' FOTOGRAFIA: BN Acquasanta Joe It. 1971 REGIA: Mario Gariazzo ATTORI: Lincoln Tate, Ty Hardin, Silvia Monelli * Dopo la guerra di secessione, in un improbabile West trovano posto la banda del cannone, un prete che fabbrica acquavite, avventurieri e tradimenti. Western povero di tutto. DURATA: 97' Adios Gringo It. 1965 REGIA: George Finley (> Giorgio Stegani) ATTORI: Giuliano Gemma, Evelyn Stewart, Robert Camardiel * Ricercato salva fanciulla da morte sicura, sgomina banda di prepotenti e prosegue con la bella per dimostrare la sua innocenza. George Finley (Giorgio Stegani) ha confezionato un discreto western all'italiana con un Gemma che fa il “buono” prima di imparare a recitare.

In his book, American Manhood: Transfonnations in Masculinity from the Revolution to the Modem Era, E. Anthony Rotundo recounts the story of the introduction of the term "neurasthenia" into the American medical lexicon in the year 1869.
