Kirsten Dunst or Emma Stone?
Rosemary Harris or Sally Field?
I went to the midnight premier this week of the latest big-screen installment of Stan Lee’s comic book superhero, “The Amazing Spider-Man.”
Just when you thought the first trilogy had mined all the worthy material from the classic comic, the reboot arrives as somewhat of a prequel that revisits Spidey’s origin and the death of Uncle Ben, but also explores an untouched part of Peter Parker’s story — the mysterious deaths of his parents, Richard and Mary Parker.
As a fan first of the comic books and then of the original Spider-Man movies, I went in, with much anticipation, prepared to judge this movie on how well it matches up to the previous series.
Who’s the better Peter Parker?
Who’s the better love interest?
Who’s the better Aunt May?
Which is the better movie?
First of all, there’s no J. Jonah Jameson this time around. The job of convincing everyone that the web-swinger is a menace to society falls to Denis Leary who plays the duty-driven police Capt. Stacy, the father of Peter Parker’s love interest, Gwen Stacy, played by Emma Stone.
There’s also no red-head bombshell. This high school genius version of Peter Parker falls for Gwen Stacy, who was actually his first love in the comic books.
But more than his love affairs with Mary Jane and Gwen Stacy, it was always his relationship with Aunt May that most showed Peter Parker’s tender and vulnerable humanity.
Rosemary Harris was very believable in the role of Peter’s aunt, but Sally Field refuses to be outdone, playing the younger but still strong and wise matriarch.
Then there’s the bad guy.
The comic books seem to have no end of super-powered psychos looking to make New York City their stomping ground, and “The Amazing Spider-Man” has one of the wall-crawler’s most deadly enemies — the Lizard. He’s as vicious and conflicted as any of the original villains.
Garfield’s Peter Parker is a little darker than the unassuming Maguire, more of an awkward loner than a love-struck nerd.
The action is stylish and fast and powerful, although the fight scenes with the Lizard don’t quite match the subway scene of “Spider-Man 2” when he rumbles with Doc Ock.
The web-swinging scenes through the city are still the breathtaking fantasy you long to see when you read the comic books.
The undercurrent of the entire movie is the mystery of what happened with Peter Parker’s parents. What dark secrets lurk behind the walls of OsCorp? There are myriad clues throughout this installment that let you know there are more installments in the works.
But what about this one? Is it as good, or even better than the first three?
At the end of the day, there’s no comparison ... because they shouldn’t be compared.
The reason to see any Spider-Man movie is for the timeless story about a troubled teenage boy who gets bitten by a radioactive spider.
Whose newfound powers don’t make his problems go away, but adds to them.
Who wants to do the right thing, even if it means his own unhappiness.
He falls, he scars, he bleeds.
He’s one of us.
As much as we cheer for this accidental guardian who must rescue the city of New York over and over again, this time around the person we most need Spider-Man to save is Peter Parker.

The Sound Shell is a place for performance – music, dance, theatre, speeches, group exercises and motion pictures. Performance requires actor(s) and audience. For enhanced visibility and to mark a separation between actor and audience, the actor is elevated on a platform. The audience remains on the ground plane. To further mark the special qualities of the performance space there is a roof to the platform. To facilitate access from ground to stage a ramp is provided. A thick wall at the rear of the stage houses services and equipment to aid the performers.

I just watched Love Actually – a romantic comedy that was released some years ago – and there was a scene in there that, I think, perfectly encapsulates the reality of being new to speaking a different language. It made me think, gees, this is probably how I sound when I’m speaking Japanese!!! Actually, I’m sure this is exactly how I sound! In this scene, the character – Jamie – is about to propose to Aurelia. The script below is the English subtitle / translation / reflection of Jamie’s newly learned Portuguese (and Aurelia’s newly learned English):
Jamie: Beautiful Aurelia, I’ve come here with a view of asking you to marriage me. I know I seems an insane person – because I hardly knows you – but sometimes things are so transparency, they don’t need evidential proof. And I will inhabit here, or you can inhabit with me in England.
[Jamie has just proposed to Aurelia]
Aurelia: [in English] Thank you. That will be nice. Yes is being my answer. Easy question.
Jamie: You learned English?
Aurelia: Just in cases.
Yup, the struggle is real…but I’m trying my best! And usually, my Japanese friends will tell me when my Japanese sounds strange…but when they’re not there to tell me so, all that matters is that I get the point across, right? Lol


Meet the Member: Playwright Michael Moss
Today we’re speaking with Rock Creek Sports Club member Michael Moss. Michael is a playwright whose play “A Day of Atonement” will be on stage at the H Street Playhouse in Washington DC from June 28-July 1.
Q: What inspired you to write a Day of Atonement?
A: I was inspired to write the play by a sermon my pastor gave nearly 20 years ago. In making a point about choice/self-determination (our lives are what we make them), she recounted a magazine article about two brothers; one a drug-addict/career-criminal, the other a surgeon. Their father had been a career-criminal who died in jail. When asked how they became who they were, each brother answered “with a father like that what else would I be.” For years, I have pondered the question: how do we become who we are? Is it environment? Heredity? Choice or fate? Some combination thereof?
Q: Can you tell us what it’s about?
A: The play is about two brothers, Allen and Andre, who are reunited after some time apart. The play begins with Andre’s release from prison after serving time for drug possession. Allen, a lawyer, is about to be appointed a judge. While incarcerated, Andre has determined to turn his life around and raise his son, Nigel. Allen has been raising Nigel while Andre was incarcerated and now wants to adopt him. The reunion is further complicated by a debt Andre owes Victor, a drug kingpin who holds a grudge against Allen. Caught in the middle of all this is the brothers’ mother.
Q: What’s your background as a playwright?
A: I wrote my first play in 1983, as an English major at CCNY in New York. After graduating, I went to law school. However, I continued to write plays. After practicing law for nearly 20 years, I went back to New York and got my graduate degree from CCNY. I’ve been writing seriously since then.
Q: What’s it feel like to see something you wrote acted out on stage?
A: I’m grateful and very excited. It’s also a little scary. I mean, I’ve put myself out there and people will have an opportunity to critique what I’ve done. I guess it comes with the territory. Some people feel it’s not really a play until it reaches the stage.

UPDATE: For those of you who have asked, "What have been doing since you stopped producing books?"
In 2007, I told HarperCollins, "I don't have anything else to say about logos." And I meant it.
I then promptly went back to my "other love" - making short films and documentaries. In the last 10 years, I have prduced well over 100 short films, as well as 9 full-length documentaries. Two of them were selected for the Baseball Hall of Fame Film Festival in Cooperstown, NY
But - in October of 2017, I was approached about a very interesting startup. They needed an exciting branding package. I agreed to do it. And, now that I am back in the logo world, I will have a LOT to say about the state of logo design, branding and related areas.


Cars 3 Rolls Into NASCAR Hall of Fame
The NASCAR Hall of Fame in Uptown Charlotte has a new and very exciting exhibit entitled “Cars 3: Inspired by NASCAR.”
The exhibit, which will run through May 31, 2018, is a collaboration among the Hall, NASCAR and Disney Pixar, creators of the Cars franchise.
Fans of Cars 3 know how closely Disney Pixar paid attention to NASCAR’s history in selecting characters both young and old, ranging from Junior “Midnight” Moon, based on Junior Johnson, and Richard Petty’s character Strip “The King” Weathers to newcomers like Chase Racelott (Chase Elliott) and Bubba Wheelhouse (Bubba Wallace).
The NASCAR Hall of Fame Cars 3 exhibit features meticulously crafted storyboards of all the film’s major characters, complete with artifacts of the actual drivers those characters represent. The Junior “Midnight” Moon storyboard, for example, features a Darlington trophy topped by a vintage Ford coupe that looks just like the character in the film.
The project was a long time in coming and the results are impressive.
“It’s the culmination of a little over a year’s work with Disney Pixar, NASCAR and our exhibits team,” Winston Kelley, the Hall’s executive director, told PopularSpeed.com in an exclusive interview Thursday.
The exhibit should help attract younger fans to the Hall.
“Having an actual Lightning McQueen here (is big),” said Kelley. “We’re one of only two non-Disney properties in the entire world that have an actual Lightning McQueen. The Petersen Museum in California and ourselves are the only two properties. We were able to work with Disney to get a Lightning McQueen that becomes a magnet.”
Kelley said the connection between kids who love the Cars franchise and NASCAR goes way back.
In the Hall’s first version of Glory Road, Richard Petty’s 1967 Plymouth Belvedere was featured. “Kids would gravitate toward that particular car and say, ‘There’s Mr. The King,’” Kelley said, referring to Petty’s character in the Cars films. “They recognized it. They gravitated to the first Hudson Hornet we had and said, ‘There’s Doc Hudson.’
“So kids recognized it from the start,” Kelley said. “It just wasn’t a formal relationship like now.”
Ray Evernham, a NASCAR Hall of Fame Class of 2018 inductee who played the character “Ray Reverham” in the film, told PopularSpeed.com that the filmmakers paid close attention to get the NASCAR connection right.
“Really impressive that the people from Pixar took so much time to get people like me and Kyle (Petty) and Richard (Petty) and Shannon (Spake) — everybody involved, not just as characters, but behind the scenes for information,” said Evernham. “To make things as realistic as they could possibly make them and then tell accurate stories about our history.
“Whether you knew about NASCAR before the movie or you’re finding out about NASCAR after the movie, you’re not going to find anything conflicting,” Evernham said, “Because they’ve done a really good job with our history.”

The Chinese Theatre was the masterpiece of Sir Grauman, an ambitious businessman who took a trip to China and fell in love with its culture. Grauman already had experience in the sector, as in 1922 he built the Egyptian Theatre, located just a few metres down the road.
After 18 months of building work and a budget of 2 million dollars (a huge amount at the time), the Chinese Theatre opened its doors on 18th May 1927 with the premiere of the film "King of Kings". Following its opening, the film industry officially moved from Downtown Los Angeles to Hollywood.
The construction of this huge pagoda was supervised by poet and director Moon Quon, who travelled from China for the occasion, and all the materials used for the construction were brought from China. One example is the huge "chinese heaven dogs", half-dog, half-lion, belonging to the Ming Dynasty, which guard the entrance of the theatre.
Since its creation, the Chinese Theatre has undergone many renovations and, without forgetting its historic origins, has the best technology in the world (for example, in 2013 it became the largest IMAX cinema in the world).
It is currently visited by over 4 million people a year.
From 1944 to 1946 it was the venue for the Oscars, being the first theatre to be awarded this honour, as until then they had only been held in hotels.
Some of the most famous premieres that have taken place in the Chinese Theatre have been Star Wars: Episode IV, A New Hope (1977) and The Wizard of Oz (1939).
Celebrity Footprints and Handprints
Outside LA's Chinese Theatre, you can find hand and footprints of over 200 celebrities, including Sir Grauman (the creator), Shirley Temple, Sophia Loren, Jackie Chan and Marilyn Monroe.
Interestingly, this tradition is said to have started when Norma Talmadge accidentally stepped into wet concrete, although it was later claimed to have been Grauman himself.
The Chinese Theatre is magnificently decorated in gold and red with elaborate, regal designs. If you're a film lover don't miss out on the chance to visit the most famous cinema in the world- it'll take your breath away!
To visit the Chinese Theatre you have two options: buy a ticket to see a movie or go on a guided tour. Both options allow you to admire the incredible auditorium and its entrance hall, which exhibits items from movies of all decades.
The guided tour takes place every 30 minutes from 10 am to 4 pm. It's 30 minutes long and is carried out in English (may vary depending on the day). You can buy your ticket at the theatre itself (it is not usually very busy) or online (http://www.tclchinesetheatres.com/vip-tours), where special offers are sometimes available.
Since the theatre is closed when there is an event (which is quite common), we recommend calling in advance to check if the tour is still on (telephone: (323) 463-9576).


Since its foundation in 1961, Black
Light Theatre of Prague has been among the best known representatives of the
Czech dramatic art in the world Already in 1959, the group performed in Vienna
for the ﬁrst
time. The ensemble achieved international reputation there. However, the
ensemble really debuted at a festival of theatre in Edinburgh in 1962.The
performance in front of a sold-out arena, where the festival took place, was
awarded by tumultuous ovation and it opened the way to the Black Light Theatre
Prague of Jiří
Srnec to renowned theatre scenes of the whole world. By now, the performances
of the Black Light Theatre have been seen by more than 5,5 million of people in
80 countries of the world.
The principle with which the
founder and artistic director of the ensemble, Jiri Srnec, endowed the theatre was
based on a new creative exploitation of a simple trick, the so-called “black
cabinet”, in which actors dressed in black with props cannot be seen by viewers
against black background. Therefore, the props and all the objects become able
to move herewith and they seem to live their own unique lives..
The Black Light Theatre consists of young dynamic
artists -dancers, actors and mimes, presenting actually “Antologia –The Best
Of“– the scetches selection of BLT historical performances as The
flying Bicycle, Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan or White Pierrot in Black.
They say “You will learn what your underwear is doing when you are not looking. We
will demonstrate that street lamps can be human’s most dangerous foes We will
persuade you that animals are much more intelligent than you may have thought
Simply, get ready that with us nothing is how you would expect it to be“.
The “Antologia” is a non
verbal show full of witty humour, dance and black light theatre skill and will
put you in a good mood and return the spectator into the world of the poetry of
a dream, into the fantastic wonders of childhood.
Some of the critics
surrealistic world created by Jiří
Srnec and his talented actors and illusionists seems to be only a step from the
world created by Hieronymus Bosch years ago, and by Salvator Dali, Max Ernst
and Picabia not that long ago. It is a world of dreams … Black Light Theatre
Prague must be seen and perceived. It provides a unique and changeable
experience to those who yield to its strange power.
light theatre is agile and fascinating, in particular in short sketches when
eleven actors and their invisible colleagues move with silent joy through the
strange world of Srnec´s dreams. It worthy seeing it because their performance
is a unique playground of absurdity without a compromise.
of the magic on the stage, playfulness and relaxing imagination.
Light Theatre Prague can be called the most original stage organisation in the
world and I do not know how one could deny this statement.


Aims and Objectives
In this project I wanted to look at various aspects of film making to see how film and painting intersect. I wanted to consider how my own work could develop from learning about film, particularly cinematographic techniques.
My current work is mainly made using ink on paper. Figures are set into slightly abstracted surroundings and layers of coloured ink are applied then washed or wiped away. The resulting picture looks like a screen with an impression of three dimensions. I also use lighting to add drama and tension to the painting. This sometimes includes setting a scene with a model and light source angled to create shadows for dramatic effect. This is then used as a reference for painting.
I asked the following questions:
- How do the materiality, medium or processes of painting and film influence each other?
- What are the possibilities, challenges and limitations of trying to bring together ideas from painting and cinema?
I interviewed Jack Perry a graduate in Set Design for Screen from Wimbledon College of Art. Jack is a writer and director and has recently been commissioned to make a film in conjunction with the BFI. We discussed film-making/ cinematography, its intersection with painting and cinematographic techniques used to generate tension, atmosphere and drama. Jack suggested several films to watch, including, Stalker by Andre Tarkovsky, The Shining by Stanley Kubrick, Mommy by Xavier Dolan and Let the Right One In by Tomas Alfredson (cinematography by Hoyte van Hoytema).
I then interviewed artist Sal Jones whose work is influenced by film and TV. I also visited the Reuben Library at the British Film Institute on several occasions to speak to the librarians and review relevant literature.
The influence of painting on film
The word cinema comes from the Greek, kinema, meaning both emotion and motion (Bruno, 2002). The first films were made in the 1890s. Painting has been around much longer than film of course and it’s easy to see how paintings have influenced cinema, the chiaroscuro lighting effects of artists such as Caravaggio, for example.
Scorsese states that seeing a beam of light hitting St Paul in Caravaggio’s The Conversion of St Paul was a defining moment for him (Manghani, 2015). Film Noir was strongly influenced by Hopper (Ryall, 2013). More recently David Lynch stated that he wanted to “make films which looked like moving paintings” (McTaggart, 2010. p12)
In the film Let the Right One In, Van Hoytema explains that he and director Alfredson used the paintings of Hans Holbein as a reference. Holbein’s eyelines are often unexpected, almost in profile, at the bottom of the frame or even outside it. To increase suspense in the film, they ensured that the two main characters’ eyes meet only very gradually.
The influence of film on painting
Many painters are influenced by film. This topic was explored in a 2013 exhibition at Victoria Miro gallery. Cinematic Visions included work by Peter Doig, Yayoi Kusama and Chris Ofili. Other contemporary painters who reference film are Cathy Lomax, Ali Sharma, Kaye Donachie, Dan Hayes and Sal Jones.
Cathy Lomax keeps a film diary and paints an image from every film she watches. Sal Jones paints studies of characters taken mainly from European crime dramas. Influenced by Almodovar she captures images from film or TV and crops and cuts them before painting. The title, taken from the character’s spoken dialogue, becomes part of the work.
Findings and areas for development
In relation to my work a particularly interesting finding is a lighting technique invented by Van Hoytema and Alfredson called spray light. Giving the impression of dull light captured in a can and sprayed across the scene it creates a mysterious, diffused effect (Hemphill, 2008).
As well as lighting, other areas for development are scene setting and composition. Both are used to add drama in films. Polanski famously uses psycho-geography. This involves manipulating a scene to generate a psychological state. Setting characters into a confined space to evoke feelings of being hemmed in for example (Orr and Ostrowska, 2006). Camera work is also important and some directors use the Dutch Tilt, where the horizon is angled to create an atmosphere of unease, as in Gilliam’s Twelve Monkeys. In the film 28 Days Later the horizon is angled at 28 degrees. Symbols, tropes and props are often used. In The Shining for example various Native American patterns and symbols recur as a reference to colonization. Kubrick also uses juxtaposition and symmetry (the Grady twins for instance) to represent the duality of good and evil. The uncanny and unexpected, are also used to add dramatic tension.
Outcomes and conclusions
There is significant crossover between painting and film. Painters are influenced by film and cinematography continues to draw on painting. As van Hoytema, quoted in Hemphil (2008), states “I see cinematography as a great blend of music, painting, poetry and technique”. The obvious difference between them is that painting is motionless and film is moving. Arguably, it is partly because of this that painting can present a more complex puzzle for the viewer. It is the viewer who has to move his eyes around the painting rather than passively watching a series of moving images as in a film. Khan (2013) claims that painting can actually do much more than film, citing surrealism as an example.
As Denise Green, quoted in Manghani (2015), says, emotional depth in cinema is conveyed mainly through the actors whereas in painting “the expression of subjectivity, by which I mean the artist’s state of mind, emotions, imagination and unconscious images, is conveyed through mark-making, as well as through the medium, colour, form and images”. David Salle, also quoted in Manghani (2015), notes the potential of the materiality of paint as narrative. Salle says, painting tells its story all at once. It does not demand to be read sequentially in a particular order, but there can still be layers and levels of meaning in its “all over-ness”.
As a painter it’s exciting to explore cinematographic techniques, to see how they can be used to develop my work, manipulating horizons for example, or experimenting with framing techniques and psycho-geography. Interestingly, when we look at one thing (film) it can throw other things (painting) into sharp relief, and we see them more clearly. Looking at film we notice the uniqueness of painting and its potential, its immediacy, its stillness, its complex language of mark-making. It’s possible that I will develop my work outside painting, perhaps in the area of film itself, but it’s important to remember that there are some things that only painting can do.

Steven Peterson writes about people forced to make hard choices, showing us who they really are. From comedies to dramas, his plays entertain, challenge, and often hold out hope. The 2017-18 theatre year is seeing world premieres of two of his plays: Paris Time at Capital Repertory Theatre (Albany, New York) and The Actuary at Peninsula Players Theatre (Fish Creek, Wisconsin).
His other produced plays are Affluence, which premiered at Theatre 40 (Beverly Hills, California) in 2014, and The Invasion of Skokie, which premiered at Chicago Dramatists in 2010 and revived by other theatre companies.
In addition, his one-act plays have been produced at theatres in Chicago and other cities, most recently Key Ring at the 2016 Pittsburgh New Works Festival.
New full-length plays not yet produced but now in the pipeline include The Widows’ League, Prodigal Brothers, Lydia Lindstrom, and The Shabbos Goy.
Mr. Peterson’s plays have grown through workshops, staged readings, and new play festivals across the USA: Cleveland Play House, Utah Shakespeare Festival, Chicago Dramatists, Capital Rep, Centre Stage (Greenville, South Carolina), Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center Theatre, Theatre Ariel (Philadelphia), Raven Theatre (Chicago), Heartland Theatre Company (Bloomington, Illinois), and others.
He is a Resident Playwright at Chicago Dramatists, a two-time winner of the Julie Harris Playwrights Award, a winner of the Dorothy Silver Playwriting Competition, and a member of the Dramatists Guild of America
Somewhat unusually for a playwright, Mr. Peterson came to the craft after a long business career. He worked as a writer and partner for a large consulting firm and held expatriate postings around the world. The first professional production of one of his plays was in 2010. He was born in Chicago and grew up in its suburbs. After some years away, he makes his home again in the ever-dramatic Windy City.

“We had a sign over our barracks: ‘Is This Trip Really Necessary?'”Lou Lichtenfield, matte artist and WW II B-17 bomber pilot
United States participation in World War II with war declared on the Axis powers after the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 was the country’s last total war, a conflict demanding home-front sacrifices and support for the soldiers risking their lives and spilling their blood abroad.
Hollywood played a major role in the war effort, from creating gung-ho live-action films that hit the nerve of awakened patriotism to producing special animated training films that prepared recruits for combat. But moviemakers also had to deal with domestic shortages, particularly the scarcity of basic materials needed to build sets, making matte painting more important than ever to the success of a production.
Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo (1944)
After the disaster of Pearl Harbor and an early string of military setbacks, U.S. morale needed a victory. It got it when Colonel Jimmy Doolittle, a former stunt pilot, commanded a 1942 air raid on the heart of Japan, a daring maneuver at sea in which sixteen B-25 bombers were launched from the deck of the carrier Hornet. The Doolittle raid hit targets from Tokyo to Kobe, and while damage was minimal, Japan was dealt a severe psychological blow.
The MGM feature Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo celebrated the mission’s danger and valor. In this scene, an actor playing Admiral William “Bull” Halsey, commander of Carriers, Pacific Fleet, salutes the Raiders as the first bomber (with Doolittle at the controls) takes off from the Hornet. Amazingly, the production never went to sea; this image was created through the magic of Warren Newcombe’s matte department. The elements combined in the optical printer by effects cameraman Mark Davis included performers shot on an MGM soundstage (a partial carrier set with three B-25 mock-ups), an ocean element filmed at the studio’s outdoor water tank, and a matte painting (the rest of the carrier deck and the squadron of B-25s).
Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo won Warren Newcombe and his department an Academy Award for Visual Effects in 1945.
Since You Went Away (1944)
While most wartime films captured the grit and blood of combat, this David Selznick production celebrated the challenges and stoicism of those left behind on the home front. One of the film’s most famous shots was this scene of a young couple saying good-bye at a train station. The matte painting, deftly executed by rookie artist Spencer Bagdatopoulos, provided the dramatic backdrop for the tender interlude performed by actors Robert Walker and Jennifer Jones.
Selznick stalwart Clarence Slifer recalled the making of the scene: “After Selznick got the performance he wanted from the actors, we shot on another set the background of the people and their long shadows. The long, cast shadows were a theme of the film to show sadness, such as here with the boy leaving for the war. The final step to finish the shot was to put in the matte painting of the train station ceiling. That was the first painting Spencer Bagdatopoulos did for me when he came to the Selznick matte department.”

I Am Not a Witch is Rungano Nyoni’s provocatively titled first film, which had a Paris screening at the 2017 Amnesty International Human Rights Film Festival. It depicts the scarifying progress of a young girl accused of witchcraft in a rural African country, presumably in southern Africa, although this isn’t entirely clear; but the vagueness lends the film a fable-like quality.
|The poster for I Am Not a Witch.|
One can’t help thinking of Harry Potter, although I Am Not a Witch reminds us that throughout the history of the persecution of alleged witchcraft, it was overwhelmingly women who were accused. The film brings home the oddness of the Rowling franchise: although written by a woman (her gender muffled if not masked by those famous two initials), the book’s hero is male, as are most of its main characters. In Nyoni’s film, all the alleged witches are female.
Shula is a child, but the others tend to be elderly, bringing home that other object of witch persecution - the aged, when they’re not in a protected family context. Instead of riding around on brooms and playing flying games, the African witches are tethered to ribbons wherever they go, so they won’t escape (otherwise they may turn into goats).
Furthermore, instead of being comfortably ensconced in a Hogwarts-like institution and making friends, Shula is trundled from place to place to work. She’s adopted by the older women, but still feels achingly alone. Eventually a father figure appears, Mr. Banda (Henry B.J. Phiri), a jovially corrupt government official who exploits the women’s labour. When Mr. Banda observes how Shula acquires some celebrity after using her supposedly clairvoyant abilities to discover a thief (who may or may not be guilty), he takes her under his wing. He protects and cozens her, but also uses her newfound celebrity. Here the film takes a turn to satire, which broadens its concerns but loosens its focus on Shula.
|The loneliness of the outsider: a scene from the film.|
All the actors in I Am Not a Witch are natural and convincing. Maggie Mulubwa as Shula has a stark presence, and is as assured as Quvenzhané Wallis, the young star of Beasts of the Southern Wild. The other witches appear to be non-actors - like figures from a documentary rather than a fiction film.
If the movie is a bracing corrective to pop fictions about witchcraft, it also makes us think of the reality of people being accused of practising witchcraft. On the African continent and in India, this has become an improbable 21st-century outrage. Many women have been lynched or hounded from their homes because they were thought to have done supernatural harm to their alleged victims. This is in addition to a veritable melting-pot of the irrationally persecuted: albinos (whose body parts are supposed to have magical powers), so-called heretics (e.g. minority Muslim sects in Turkey and Indonesia) and so-called pagans (such as the Yazidi in Iraq).
I Am Not a Witch touches on these. There’s a harrowing scene where Mr. Banda’s trophy wife (also a witch) goes shopping at a supermart and is hassled by a crowd that looks like it might turn violent. The director also offers a glimpse of a couple of albino children. But she doesn’t follow up on these, and more importantly she doesn’t take the central story of Shula to its logical conclusion. “I am not a witch” turns out not to be a desperate plea or a defiant cry, but merely a young girl’s assertion of her selfhood. We expected more. Aside from easy satire of politics and pop culture, there’s an ostensibly tragic development which somehow makes tragedy seem facile.
|Transporting the "witches" in I Am Not a Witch.|
Nyoni’s direction is smooth, whether for panoramic shots of the African landscape or arresting close-ups of her characters. For a first film, there’s not a ragged sequence in it. This is something we miss at times, for the stumbling moments in a neophyte director’s work are often the cracks that let in genuine emotion. The lack here is underlined by the classical theme music that turns certain scenes into sentimental interludes.
In the end credits, we see that aside from the writer-director (who was born in Zambia, grew up in Wales and now lives in Portugal) and the principal cast, almost all of the technicians and other participants are of European origin. The sources of financing were also European. The production and distribution of the film - ditto. If what has been sold as an African work of film art is in fact overwhelmingly European, it’s no surprise if it’s been co-opted into a conventional, slick Western aesthetic and vision. Ultimately, I Am Not a Witch may be less an exploration of a social phenomenon in some parts of the world than a parable about itself.

Entry 31. By David,
Sunday May 1, 2005
So the music video's done, and viewable here.
With any luck you'll be seeing it on RAGE
one of these days...
At the moment I'm working on the "Herman" documentary
I referred to waaay back here.
Since the actual story of the making of "Herman"
is quite boring (and if you're reading this, you would know),
it will be full of lies and make-believe, but will be entertaining,
at least for the five minutes (?) it runs, and at least for
the people involved.
Meanwhile, the film itself is getting around a bit -- FINALLY
it's been accepted to an Australian festival, the Revelation
Film Festival in Perth. In addition to this, it's
just been featured in the International Showcase (I think
this means it's available for viewing by international TV
programmers/buyers) of Cartoons
On The Bay in Italy, and will soon screen at the
(NJ, USA) and Filmstock
(Luton, UK) film festivals.
Having entered shitloads of festivals in the last eight months
or so, and having been knocked back by the vast majority of
them, I've started to get a feel for which ones are worth
entering. The fests that have shown "Herman" have
so far been almost entirely "independent" ones,
fests run by people who stress their love of movies (as opposed
to FILMS) and tend to program older movies, cult classics
and "genre" stuff alongside the new shorts and features.
"Herman" has not had much (any) success with "serious"
film festivals, i.e. the prestigious, artistic ones, and the
ones geared towards "getting YOUR film in front of the
EYES of important FILM INDUSTRY PEOPLES!!!".
I guess this is what it means to "know your audience".
In "Herman"'s case, the audience is geeks who like
watching movies and being entertained. So -- people like me.
This makes good sense and I wish I'd realised it before I
sent off that $50 entry to the Cockspank International Film
Festival in Wankislaw, Europe.
And that's another thing -- it hasn't been accepted anywhere
outside of the US and UK. Well, of course it hasn't. It's
a long film full of talkiness and Western (and even some made-up)
slang and would be a shit to subtitle (I know this, I've had
to subtitle it myself for the DVD).
And finally, it's long! 22 minutes is a long short film,
and don't I know it. This is probably the biggest mark against
it (unless you count being fairly silly as a failing). It
may not fit comfortably in a "shorts program", or
animation anthology, being that festivals tend to like to
program lots of little five-minute films. I knew the length
would be a problem when I started on this thing, but I chose
to ignore this, apparently to the film's commercial detriment
(if not its quality).
But now that I "KNOW MY AUDIENCE", I can at least
cut back on the number of wasted submissions and try to send
it mostly to festivals where I know it has a shot at being
shown. Live and learn.
And now, a quick rundown on what some people involved in
"Herman" are up to now:
WAJNBERG (Chuck) is still studying Screenwriting
at RMIT and is coasting on the success he and I seem to
be having with our wonderful new film "Badlands"
(proving for certain that festivals will show any shite
as long as it's short). Look for it at the Sydney Film
Festival this year (seriously)!
MATHERS (Sabrina) has a new film called Meta4
in the St Kilda Film Festival's Siemens MicroMovie film
competition. It's strange and amusing and has plasticine
animated violence in it -- always a good idea.
CALEAR (Lt. Angryman) directed SCOTT
POLLARD's (Chief Model Maker) latest triumphant
season of "The Super Happy Robot Hour" at the
Melbourne International Comedy Festival.
PULLAR (Grand Dragon of the KKK, Dr Solaris)
is now working with JIM
KALOGIRATOS (Schiff, The Legal Bulldog) at
3 Animation. They are both deliriously happy.
SALINGER (Herman, The Legal Labrador) went
Section Eight and left the military. He finally had a
story accepted for publication by the New Yorker in the
late '40s. Following this, he became a recluse, and now
earns a living ghostwriting love letters for lonelyhearts.
VOLKOV (Score) is now working at a men's fertility
clinic, helping his brethren get their penises hard. Godspeed
ye, cock emperor.
(Score) are having yet another "break" period
gone to Canada (possibly in search of the mighty BIGFOOT).
Hopefully there will be reason to awaken the slumbering
beast (the band, not Bigfoot) soon.
As for myself, I'm continuing to write and draw silly
things, including an exciting new cartoon called "Glorial's
Pumpkin Breath And Grandma". I'm working on pitches
for a couple of proposed animated series. And later this
year I'll be working on storyboards for a new animated
kids show, made by the
people who did "Quads"...
And, in response to a challenge on pulpfaction.net,
here's a picture of me as a Simpsons character:
Entry 32. By David,
Monday August 1, 2005
Above: You won't have seen explosive COP ACTION
until you've seen my all-new animated series: THE PRECINCT.
Currently just a pitch, a pilot script and a lot of little
sketches, but ready to go into production as soon as you give
me money to go hire Vince Colosimo for the part of Balanovis
(the sexy wog Lothario with a deadly secret), and maybe Eric
Bana for the part of Ackersley (the angry cop on the edge
with a deadly secret).
Meanwhile, in Herman-land: the SPECIAL EDITION DVD
is done and available
for purchase. I'm happy with it. It's got just
enough extra stuff to make you go, "Oo, it's got extra
stuff", and not quite enough to make you say, "He
could've left this off, really".
Herman has gone and won some film festival awards!
The film received TWO awards (an Audience Award and Director's
Award) at Filmstock,
in Luton, and then picked up Best Animated Short at the Melbourne
Underground Film Festival! Score!
I'm comics co-ordinator at this year's National
Young Writers Festival and have organised a few
comics/animation-related forums and events, including a return
of the Comics
to Animation screening that played very well at
NYWF '04 and at Cinema Nova a month or so back.
Meet Herman Associate Producers Larry Boxshall and
Ben Hellwig! (no photos yet)
Larry and Ben are not credited as such in the film itself.
Why? Because they got their titles by performing a very special
service for the film AFTER its completion: presenting it to
a rapturous (?) audience at the 2005 San
The Comic-Con's Independent Film Festival picked Herman
to close their Sunday animation session. However, their rules
require that a member of the production team be present for
the screening so they might say a few words and answer questions.
Unfortunately, prior commitments (and, yes, the fact that
a last-minute plane ticket to the States costs mucho, mucho
dinero) meant I couldn't go.
Thankfully, these two stalwart gentlemen, who knew me best
as the cartoonist guy who comes into their comic shop and
never buys anything, agreed to take some time out of their
San Diego Con experience to be the film's "Associate
Producers", and, reportedly, did a fine job at it. Their
Aussie accents put it over, and the free "Herman"
comics they gave out sealed the deal. Good work, fellas!

‘Ugly Lies the Bone’ is a play that discusses technical innovation and uses it to explore the harrowing pressures in reality that might make us want to escape it. In the UK premiere of Lindsey Ferrentino’s play, a war veteran Jess returns home from a tour of duty in Afghanistan faces her demons in virtual reality rehab.
The play includes a hi-tech production with a stage which becomes a giant screen each time Jess uses her VR goggles and goes through her therapy session for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
In the opening scene of Ugly Lies the Bone, Jess is alone on stage with a walking aid. A disembodied voice instructs her to “open your eyes” and guides her into a virtual reality world that aims to alleviate her pain.
Instructed by the voice in her headset , she creates a VR world that allows her to escape the pain and her restrictive body.
The play offers an honest and thought provoking exploration of VR techniques to lessen the physical and psychological toll of reconstruction and raises questions about how we can help rehabilitation not only in the fantasy realm but in the real world too. This is a great play for those who are interested in how technical innovations can affect our interpretations of reality and illusion.
The play is currently on show at the National Theatre until the 6th of June 2017 . For more info and tickets https://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/shows/ugly-lies-the-bone

William Gibson's play and the true story behind it caught my attention at a young age. Annie's perseverance and Helen's struggle to communicate and be a part of the world around her was universal. Shortly after, I saw the 1962 Oscar-winning play and was blown away at the power of the performances. I knew I had to direct the play myself in the future. As I write this, my goal has become a reality as the Banzerini House brings the story to life on stage again.
As you can imagine it's been a lot of hard work. Right now, blocking is complete and we are “off-book” which means the cast has their lines memorized. I couldn't be more proud of the entire production, most importantly the cast and crew. See their bios HERE.
In life, there are always challenges, even heartbreak, in pursuing our dreams and I know first hand how disheartening it can be. But much like the story of 'The Miracle Worker' I am reminded that no matter how trapped we may feel, there is always someone or something to pull us out of the darkness.


Yes. Ray Wise. You negotiated an agreement with the Borg Collective: safe passage through their space, and in return you helped them defeat one of their enemies. In this film, Wise starred as Doctor Alec Holland, the scientist who was transformed into the title creature. During the 1993-1994 television season, Wise was a regular on the CBS soap opera Second Chances. With much of her crew dead, Captain Janeway is forced to join forces with the Maquis to find a way back home. Perhaps his best known film roles are those of Dr. Alec Holland in Wes Craven's 1982 horror film Swamp Thing and Leon Nash in the 1987 science fiction film RoboCop. In 1978, Wise was cast in his first TV guest appearance by director Cliff Bole, who later directed many Star Trek episodes. Wise's television guest appearances during the 1990s included a 1994 appearance of The Larry Sanders Show, on which Penny Johnson and Wallace Langham were regulars.

The series only lasted that one season, although Wise later worked with Phillips in a 1999 episode of Diagnosis Murder entitled "The Flame," which also featured Joanna Cassidy. Roles: Other actors who had roles in this film include Ronny Cox, Robert DoQui, and Miguel Ferrer. Jesús Salvador Treviño directed four of Wise's twelve episodes, including his first. Wise's next film role was a brief appearance as a man in a TV soap opera in the 1982 horror-thriller Cat People. His character worked for CBS founder and chief executive William Paley, who was played in the film by Frank Langella.

Daniel Eagen considers the state of American Revolution movies and doesn’t see much cause for optimism.
Tag Archives: Revolutionary War movies
My favorite historical subject is, of course, America’s fight for independence, so I generally root for movies about the Revolutionary War.
Since I’ve been obsessed with dinosaurs, whales, giant squid, and other particularly large and fearsome creatures from the time I was a wee lad, I also generally root for movies about sea monsters.
I’ve yet to make up my mind about movies that combine the two.
Brian Helgeland has been hired to write “Here There Be Monsters,” a movie about Revolutionary War naval hero John Paul Jones — except with sea monsters, individuals close to the project confirmed.
Producers of the Warner Bros./Legendary project are in talks with Robert Zemeckis to direct.
“Here There Be Monsters” is based on an concept by Legendary Pictures CEO Thomas Tull.
Tull is producing along with Legendary’s Jon Jashni and Mandeville’s Todd Lieberman and David Hoberman.
Helgeland, who won the Academy Award for 1997′s “L.A. Confidential,” also wrote the 2003 “Mystic River,” the 2010 “Green Zone” and 2010′s “Robin Hood.”
Zemeckis directed a string of 1980s hits, including “Romancing the Stone,” “Back to the Future” and “Who Framed Roger Rabbit,” as well as 1994′s “Forrest Gump.”
This is one of those occasions when I can sympathize with the Apostle Paul, torn as he was between his two natures. The mature, academic part of me that went to grad school is really, really nervous. The behemoth-loving part of me that squeals with delight when I watch the Kraken sequences from Clash of the Titans is thinking this could be one of the Best. Things. Ever.
Don’t settle for the 2010 remake, by the way. The only true Clash of the Titans is the 1981 Clash of the Titans.
…based on the book Forgotten Allies by Joseph Glatthaar and James Kirby Martin. The cool part is that the Oneida Nation is doing it themselves. They decided that a movie would be a good way to get this part of their story out there, so they’re putting up the $10 million for the film themselves. Here are the details.
I’ve been looking up early American course syllabi recently to see if I’m on track with my ideas for teaching a colonial course this fall. Not long ago I ran across a website with teaching resources, including a list of films dealing with early American history.
For reasons I’ve never understood, the Revolution hasn’t fared well on the silver screen. There are a few period films that I enjoy watching. 1776 remains a personal favorite of mine, because it helps restore some of the suspense and urgency that two and a half centuries have worn away from the debate over independence. I’ve also got to confess that I’m a fan of The Patriot. It’s a compelling story told well, and it focuses on the critical war in the South, even if it plays fast and loose with the facts. A&E’s made-for-TV films The Crossing and Benedict Arnold: A Queston of Honor also deserve an honorable mention. I haven’t seen HBO’s Adams miniseries yet, but I’ve heard some great feedback. Still, the Revolutionary War can’t match the Civil War or WWII in terms of number and quality of film adaptations.
This hasn’t always been the case. As the filmography at the above website shows, the Revolutionary War was a pretty popular subject during the infancy of moving pictures. From the early 1900′s to the 1920′s, filmmakers were turning out Revolutionary War stories at a surprisingly high rate. Similar projects often appeared close to the same time: Paul Revere and Nathan Hale were both popular subjects in the 1910′s, and Francis Marion got his own film in 1911 and again in 1914.
It’s clear that moviemakers were interested in the Revolution from the first days of putting stories on film. It’s also clear that interest in making Revolutionary War films didn’t keep up with this initial burst of enthusiasm.
There are a lot of stories from the War of Independence I’d like to see on the screen, but it doesn’t look like it’s happening anytime soon. Countingdown.com lists quite a few WWII movies in the works, but I couldn’t find any Revolutionary War-related projects in any genre. Maybe the current Founding Fathers craze will bring more filmmakers around.

Broadway has seldom hosted a stage phenomenon as successful as the musical Wicked: The Untold Story of the Witches of Oz—or just plain Wicked, as its legions of fans call it. Its origins can be traced to a novel by Gregory Maguire that was first published in 1995: Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, which itself is a revisionist version of the story told first in L. Frank Baum’s 1900 book and its perennially popular 1939 film adaptation, The Wizard of Oz. Maguire’s novel takes an unusual slant, telling the story from the perspective of the Wicked Witch of the West.
The book came to the attention of famed composer Stephen Schwartz, who secured the rights to the material and went about developing a musical version with screenwriter/actress Winnie Holzman. The musical’s initial pre-Broadway run took place at the Curran Theatre in San Francisco, in June 2003; critics and audiences found much to praise, but the consensus seemed to hold that the production had substantial flaws. In response, Schwartz, Holzman, and the rest of the team spent a few months tweaking the material prior to the Broadway premiere, in October 2003. The extra effort paid off: Wicked became a smash Broadway hit, breaking box office records and winning three Tony Awards. The cast recording is a success in its own right, as it has sold several million copies and earned a Grammy Award.
Since then, Wicked has become a national and international sensation, with successful tours all over the world. If you’re looking for Wicked tickets, we have them right here at FrontRowTickets.com—just select the venue and date below.

Hispanic food giant Goya Foods is sponsoring the movie Bella
Goya Foods today announced that it will launch a multi-dimensional promotional campaign for the highly-acclaimed film “Bella”, winner of the 2007 Toronto International Film Festival’s “People’s Choice Award”. The independently-produced film, brainchild of Mexican icon Eduardo Verástegui who serves as both star and producer, has won enthusiastic reviews from a variety of media outlets including CNN’s Anna Maria Montero who called it “Powerful and moving … a true inspiration.” Written and directed by first-time filmmaker Alejandro Gomez Monteverde, this charming movie is a life-changing love story centered on family, friendship and a love that goes deeper than romance.Click Here to read Goya's Press Release
According to Goya Foods President Robert Unanue, “Goya has chosen to take on an active role in the promotion of this film owing to its emphasis on the strength of family and tradition. Of equal importance to us was the fact that “Bella” portrays Latinos in such a positive light and of course, that food plays an integral role in the story”. The film will open nationwide on October 26th and in support of its debut, Goya will host the October 23rd premiere in Miami, Florida at the Olympia Theatre, Gusman Center as well as the October 24th premiere in New York City at Tribeca Cinemas.

The video will be featured prominently at the Premiere as well as on Goya’s website www.goya.com, the “Bella” website, www.bellathemovie.com and the DVD version of the film scheduled for release in 2008.
So for that, we say thank you Goya! Our family always cooks with your products and will continue to do now more than ever!
