Download or read book 100 Essential Silent Film Comedies written by James Roots and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-05-11 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the moment films were first produced, comedy has been a key feature of cinema. From just before the turn of the twentieth century until the early 1930s, audiences celebrated the brilliant humor of cinematic clowns who left their marks forever. We still remember—and laugh at—the hilarious antics of Laurel and Hardy, Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd, and many others. In 100 Essential Silent Film Comedies James Roots identifies the major comedic motion pictures produced in the first few decades of the twentieth century. With a lucid and lively style, Roots takes a look at more than 400 silent comedies and narrows the list to 100 that viewers should consider. Each entry includes cast and crew information, a synopsis, critical evaluation, and additional commentary—all to demonstrate why that particular film is essential viewing. The films range from 70 seconds to full-length features and even include some of the earliest produced films, starting in 1894. In addition to citing Hollywood’s finest, the book profiles comedies from around the world, including selections from the United Kingdom, France, Japan and Russia. More thanseventy silent comedians from Charlie Chaplin to Max Linder are represented in these selections, and the book celebrates such established classics as The General and Safety Last—as well as relatively obscure one-reelers. Including information about DVD availability, 100 Essential Silent Film Comedies is an invaluable resource that provides both scholars and general film fans a list of entertaining films to explore.

Book excerpt: Her whole life, Lai was told that she’d only live to see eighteen years. In the seemingly utopian community she grew up in, scientists calculated residents’ life expectancies at birth, and that number defined their place within their society. When Lai was given the number eighteen in a community where numbers over one hundred are the norm, her life was considered all but meaningless. As her eighteenth birthday approached, Lai became determined not to be defined by her death date, and then everything started to unravel. After escaping the only life she’d ever known, in a community that she had been taught was all that was left of humanity, Lai is now faced with something even more terrifying: the truth. The Silent Spaces picks up where The Quiet Limit left off, following Lai as she navigates past losses, present confusion, and future uncertainties. She must find a way to survive, all while refusing to give up on those she left behind.

Download or read book The 100 Greatest Silent Film Comedians written by James Roots and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-10-23 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The silent film era featured some of the most revered names of on-screen comic performance, from Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton to Harold Lloyd, Douglas Fairbanks, and Laurel & Hardy. Besides these giants of cinema, however, there are other silent era performers—both leading actors and supporting players—who left an enduring legacy of laughter. In The 100 Greatest Silent Film Comedians, James Roots ranks the greatest performers based on a scorecard that measures each comic’s humor, timelessness, originality, and teamwork. Far more than just a listing, this is an idiosyncratic and entertaining review of the men and women who created the golden age of comedy. As a critic and deaf viewer, Roots brings a truly unique perspective to the evaluation of these performers and their work. He has viewed thousands of silent comedies and offers some assessments that run contrary to the standard list of performers. While many obvious names are placed in the top echelon, the author also champions performers who have been neglected, in part because their work has not been as visible. Each entry includes a filmography a scorecard an evaluation of the artist’s overall work an assessment of representative films DVD availability With the increased availability of films on DVD, as well as Internet access, more and more silent performers are being discovered by film fans. Supplemented by an appendix of comedians who missed the cut, as well as an annotated bibliography, The 100 Greatest Silent Film Comedians will be an invaluable resource to anyone wanting to know more about the brilliant entertainers of the silent era.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Fascinating . . . a distinctively well-crafted intelligence-community memoir” by a leader of the US Navy’s clandestine undersea projects (Publishers Weekly). The Cold War was the first major conflict between superpowers in which victory and defeat were unambiguously determined without the firing of a shot. Without the shield of a strong, silent deterrent or the intellectual sword of undersea espionage, that war could not have been won. John P. Craven was a key figure in the Cold War beneath the sea. As chief scientist of the Navy’s Special Projects Office, which supervised the Polaris missile system, then later as head of the Deep Submergence Systems Project (DSSP) and the Deep Submergence Rescue Vehicle program (DSRV), he was intimately involved with planning and executing America’s submarine-based nuclear deterrence and espionage activities—considered so important by the Soviets that they assigned a full-time KGB agent to spy on him. Some of Craven’s highly classified activities have been mentioned in such books as Blind Man’s Bluff—but in this memoir, he gives us his own insights into the deadly cat-and-mouse game that U.S. and Soviet forces played deep in the world’s oceans. Craven tells riveting stories about the most treacherous years of the Cold War, including: the near-disaster that almost sent Nautilus, the world’s first nuclear-powered sub, to the bottom of the ocean, taking the Navy’s missile program with it the rivalry between advocates of deterrence and military men and scientists such as Edward Teller, who believed the US had to prepare to win a nuclear conflict with the Soviets the argument that raged in the Navy over the reasons for the tragic loss of Thresher the search for the rogue Soviet sub that became the model for The Hunt for Red October—and what the Navy discovered when it eventually found the sunken boat Craven takes readers inside highly secret programs, sophisticated intelligence operations, salvage operations, and the program’s takeover by the CIA during the Nixon administration. A compelling tale of intrigue, both within our own government and between the US and Soviet navies, The Silent War is a “compelling” account of how the submarine service kept the peace during those dangerous days (Chicago Tribune). “A must-read for those interested in the technology, management, and intelligence-gathering challenges triggered by tense Cold War competition beneath the seas.” —Proceedings of the US Naval Institute
