It depends on whom you ask. The land, which the borough bought three months ago from John Fiorino of Aberdeen, is being used as a platform by the Democrats and Republicans seeking election this year. Fiorino is a former Monmouth County Democratic chairman. “The town spent $100,000 for it,” Democratic candidate Michael O’Kane said of the tract. “This property is tiny.” O’Kane added that the land, which measures about 50 by 100 feet, may be R.C.

  • El Film-Ensayo JOSEP M
    El carácter poético del pensar se halla aún oculto. Heidegger 1. Las olvidadas raíces del film-ensayo JOSEP M. DOMÈNECH CATALÀ E 1 l término film-ensayo (Essai-film ) fue res- catado por Richard Wilson en una entrevista mantenida en 1987, para denominar el modo cinematográfico que, según él, caracterizó la última parte de la carrera El film-ensayo: de Orson Welles2. El mismo Welles lo había acuñado años antes para justificar la peculiar estructura de su película Fake (Fraude, 1973)3. No parece que el concep- to haya tenido mucho éxito, ni dentro ni fuera del campo de los estudios welle- sianos, a juzgar por su escasa aparición en los escritos sobre cine publicados des- la didáctica de entonces4. Su importancia no se circunscribe, sin embargo, a la carrera del director norteamericano, sino que abarca una forma cinematográfica que Godard ya pretendía delimitar, a propósito de Deux ou trois choses que je sais d’elle como una (1966), en los años sesenta: “Es como si yo quisiera un ensayo sociológico en for- ma de novela y, para hacerlo, no dispusiera más que de notas musicales”5. Wilson, por su parte, centraba las características del film-ensayo en las pelícu- actividad las de Welles Fake y Filming Othello (1979), pero las retrotraía a los programas de radio del director, lo cual puede explicar, aunque sea parcialmente, por qué el concepto de film-ensayo no ha despertado excesivo interés entre los teóricos, habida cuenta de que para trabajar sobre el mismo hay que efectuar una labor subversiva interdisciplinar por la que, en general, los investigadores cinematográficos no pa- recen sentir demasiado entusiasmo.

  • Orson Welles
    WHAT ELEMENTS DO WE DISPOSE OF ? 1) HIS FILMS, most of them shot in chiseled black and white, all endowed with unforgettable sequences that are now part of the world’s cinematographic heritage.. The excerpts of his films have been given a particular status so that they may appear as windows into the the man’s soul, into moments of hiss life: they have never be used for solely illustrative purposes, but always as new, detonating elements bringing us each time one step further along on our quest, our inquiry, our questioning about Orson Welles. As pieces of a puzzle that progressively outline a man. The films thus appaear as so many mirrors of Welles’s personality: Citizen Kane, The Magnificient Ambersons, The Lady from Shanghai, Touch of Evil, Mr. Arkadin, Othello, Chimes at Midnight. ORSON WELLES 2) A PROFUSION OF PHOTOS The legendary character, the that shed light on Orson Welles’s countless physical personified myth of the creator, transformations, through the many roles he played the man who reinvented in film. Thanks to a visual animation, the photos theatre and film language at appear as a flock of birds that will land on a wall the age of 24. in a rustle of wings. Some will fly away, others will find their place in this magical, moving puzzle, The unfathomable man of a bringing us further still in the comprehension of his thousand faces: the moralist, life and work. the humanist, the Don Juan, the bon-vivant, the American and the expatriate, the magician, the actor, the filmmaker, 3) SOUND AND VISUAL ARCHIVES, the stage director, the poet, of American or european origin, which tell the and always the child prodigy story of the man without the comedian’s mask.

  • Orson Welles on the Air: Radio Recordings and Scripts, 1938-1946
    Orson Welles on the Air: Radio Recordings and Scripts, 1938-1946 “My big inventions were in radio and the theatre. Much more than in movies.” — Orson Welles “Seeing the original scripts of the Mercury Theatre on the Air programs and the disks that transcribed them was like gazing upon a Rosetta Stone of broadcast radio.” — Paul Heyer Indiana University proposes to digitize and preserve 324 original sound recordings and accompanying scripts of radio programs produced by Orson Welles and to present the digitized materials in a free web site with enhanced metadata and contextual essays by leading scholars of Welles’s radio work. Orson Welles was a major creative force in the American theatrical and media arts of the mid-twentieth century. Through his work as an actor, director, writer, and producer, he was responsible for some of the era’s most critically acclaimed innovations not just within a single medium, but in a body of work that spanned film, live theater, and radio. Through the series known as First Person Singular, Mercury Theatre on the Air, and Campbell Playhouse in turn, Welles is widely recognized as having raised the bar for radio drama, pioneering and honing narrative techniques that he would later carry over into his acclaimed film work. Among other things, he emphasized the value of narration—something at which he excelled—rejecting the notion that radio drama should simply involve broadcasting the kind of sounds someone might have heard while watching a stage play. One episode of the Mercury Theatre on the Air, “The War of the Worlds,” arguably became the most famous (or infamous) broadcast in history, thanks to the panic it’s alleged to have caused among listeners who mistook its dramatization of H.

INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.

Debuting in Harlem with an all-black cast, the play’s setting resembled a Haiti-like island instead of ancient Scotland, and Welles also supplemented the witches with voodoo priestesses, sensing that the practice of voodoo was more relevant, if not more realistic, for a contemporary audience than early modern witchcraft.
