  • Film Preservation Program Are "Cimarron,"
    "7 NO. 5 The Museum of Modern Art FOR RELEASE JANUARY 14 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 955-6100 Cable: Modernart EARLY FILMS TO BE REVIVED AT MUSEUM "The Virginian," Cecil B. DeMllle's 1914 classic, from the novel by Owen Wlster, with Dustin Famun who played in the stage version, will be shown as part of a series of eleven early films to be presented from January 14 through January 25, at The Museum of Modern Art. The Jesse Lasky production of "The Virginian" will be introduced by James Card, Curator of the George Eastman House Motion Picture Study Collection in Rochester, which is providing the films on the Museum program. At the eight o'clock, January 14 performance, Mr. Card will introduce the film and address himself to the controversy over the direction of "The Virginian," one of the early silent feature films. The fact that Cecil B. DeMille directed has been in dispute over the years. On the same program with "The Virginian," another vintage film will be shown. Tod Browning's "The Unknown" starring Lon Chaney. Made in 1927, it was an original story by the director, called "Alonzo, the Armless." According to The New York Times Film Reviews, a recently published compilation of the paper's film criticism, "the role ought to have satisfied Mr. Chaney's penchant for freakish characterizations for here he not only has to go about for hours with his arms strapped to his body, but when he rests behind bolted doors, one perceives that he has on his left hand a double thumb." Joan Crawford plays the female lead in the film, about which Roy Edwards writes in Sight and Sound, the characters and special effects add up to a "thorough display of grotesqueries." Other notable films that are part of this film preservation program are "Cimarron," starring Richard Dix and made in 1931 from Edna Ferber's popular novel; "Dr.

For the first time in a major museum exhibition, LACMA presents Expressionism not as a distinctly German style, but as an international movement in which artists responded with various aesthetic approaches to the work of modern masters. The German side of the story has been less well known in the United States until just recently, and LACMA's groundbreaking exhibition provides visitors and scholars alike an opportunity to explore the nuances of the interrelationship between a group of artists that includes not just Van Gogh and Kandinsky, but Henri Matisse, Georges Braque, Andre Derain, Erich Heckel, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, and many others. Sponsored by the museum and the Historians of German and Central European Art, topics presented explore in depth the relationship between French art and Germany artists, Cubism's impact, and the impact of non-Western art on European art from this era.

When did the rascals of “The Front Page” turn into the scoundrels of “Absence of Malice”? Why did reporters stop being heroes played by Clark Gable, Bette Davis and Cary Grant and become bit actors playing rogues dogging at the heels of Bruce Willis and Goldie Hawn? It all happened in the dark as people watched movies and sat at home listening to radio and watching television. “The Image of the Journalist in Popular Culture” explores the continuing, evolving relationship between the American people and their media. It investigates the conflicting images of reporters in movies and television and demonstrates, decade by decade, their impact on the American public’s perception of newsgatherers in the 20th century. The class shows how it happened first on the big screen, then on the small screens in homes across the country. The class investigates the image of the cinematic newsgatherer from silent films to the 1990s, from Hildy Johnson of “The Front Page” and Charles Foster Kane of “Citizen Kane” to Jane Craig in “Broadcast News.” The reporter as the perfect movie hero.

  • City of Palm Springs Citywide Historic Context Statement & Survey Findings
    121 THEME: COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT BETWEEN THE WARS (1919-1941) Commercial buildings in Palm Springs, c. 1925. Source: Los Angeles Public Library. In the years following World War I, Palm Springs was transformed from a health resort for respiratory patients into an exclusive winter resort for the wealthy. Several resort hotels were constructed in the 1920s and 1930s, cementing Palm Springs’ reputation as a first-class resort community. Commercial development during this period included facilities that catered to the tourist and seasonal community, along with a growing number of commercial establishments to serve the permanent residents. Throughout the inter-war years Palm Canyon Drive (until 1930, Main Avenue) remained the primary commercial thoroughfare in Palm Springs, growing north and, to a lesser degree, south from the village’s historic center at Tahquitz Canyon Way (formerly Spring Street). In an era when architecture was dominated by traditional styles, certain styles were considered appropriate for specific uses: Gothic, for example, was for churches, Beaux Arts and Classical was commonly used for business and civic buildings. In the desert environment of Palm Springs a simplified, rustic interpretation of the popular Spanish Colonial Revival style and traditional southwestern adobe, hacienda, and wood ranch vernacular types were believed to be the best styles and types, both for residences and commercial buildings. Palm Springs’ SCREENCHECK DRAFT– OCTOBER 13, 2015 City of Palm Springs Citywide Historic Context Statement & Survey Findings HISTORIC RESOURCES GROUP 122 Desert Inn was an example of this, and later the larger El Mirador Hotel reflected an even more elaborate use of Spanish-derived styles.
