Book Synopsis Post Cinematic Affect by : Steven Shaviro
Download or read book Post Cinematic Affect written by Steven Shaviro and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Post-Cinematic Affect is about what it feels like to live in the affluent West in the early 21st century. Specifically, it explores the structure of feeling that is emerging today in tandem with new digital technologies, together with economic globalization and the financialization of more and more human activities. The 20th century was the age of film and television; these dominant media shaped and reflected our cultural sensibilities. In the 21st century, new digital media help to shape and reflect new forms of sensibility. Movies (moving image and sound works) continue to be made, but they have adopted new formal strategies, they are viewed under massively changed conditions, and they address their spectators in different ways than was the case in the 20th century. The book traces these changes, focusing on four recent moving-image works: Nick Hooker's music video for Grace Jones' song Corporate Cannibal; Olivier Assayas' movie Boarding Gate, starring Asia Argento; Richard Kelly's movie Southland Tales, featuring Justin Timberlake, Dwayne Johnson, and other pop culture celebrities; and Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor's Gamer.
Book Synopsis The Magic of Believing: A Lansbury Family Memoir by : Edgar Lansbury
Download or read book The Magic of Believing: A Lansbury Family Memoir written by Edgar Lansbury and published by JLML Press. This book was released on 2020-05-24 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set against the seismic events of the twentieth century, “The Magic of Believing” is an inspiring family memoir of hardship, courage, hope and triumph. In 1940, as bombs fell on London, Charlotte Lillian McIldowie (“Moe”) boarded a steamer with her daughter, Angela, and twin boys, Edgar and Bruce, to cross the Atlantic. Dodging icebergs and German U-Boats, they eventually arrived unscathed in the United States, the first leg of a lifelong adventure from London to Broadway to Hollywood populated by the most creative and fascinating personalities of the day. The Lansbury family has a proud theatrical tradition that began with the nineteenth century Shakespearean tragedian Robert Mantell and continued with Moe, who under the stage name Moyna MacGill became one of London's golden leading ladies. Angela’s storied career launched in 1942 when she signed with MGM and appeared in her first big screen roles, “Gaslight” and “The Picture of Dorian Grey.” Decades later, she is known and beloved internationally for scores of defining film roles, Broadway musicals such as "Mame,""Sweenie Todd,” and "Gypsy" and, of course, for her portrayal of the beloved Jessica Fletcher in TV’s “Murder She Wrote.” The Lansbury twins wasted no time moving into the family business as well. Bruce became a prolific television writer, series creator, producer, and a senior executive at Paramount Pictures. He produced such legendary TV series as “Mission Impossible” and “The Wild, Wild West.” Edgar began in theater as a scenic designer and eventually produced his first Broadway play, "The Subject Was Roses," which won the Critics Circle and Tony Awards, and the Pulitzer Prize. He went on to produce several films and dozens of plays on and off-Broadway, including the international smash-hit musical "Godspell.” Throughout their lives and respective professional careers, in good times and bad, Moe's creative muse and her undying belief in ‘the possible’ provided the energy and magic that fueled the family’s dreams and success.

Book Synopsis The American Theatre Wing, an Oral History by : Patrick Pacheco
Download or read book The American Theatre Wing, an Oral History written by Patrick Pacheco and published by Applause Theatre & Cinema. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Applause Books). In 1943, a wounded soldier aided by a cane limped into the Stage Door Canteen, the American Theatre Wing's fabled New York club created to entertain the Allied forces. Two hours later, he was said to have left with a spring in his step and without the cane. This "miracle" is recounted in the lavish new book, The American Theatre Wing, an Oral History: 100 Years, 100 Voices, 100 Million Miracles . The other 999,999 miracles are more commonplace, if no less remarkable, told by the impassioned artists and theater advocates who created and sustained this preeminent theatrical organization founded in 1917. While the American Theatre Wing is best known as the founder of the Tony Awards, its mission is also dedicated to preserving the past, celebrating the present, and fostering the future of American theater by developing educational programs and distributing national grants and awards each year to performers and theater companies. The organization also recently took under its wing the irreverent OBIE awards, the top honors for off-Broadway that has become a dynamic pipeline for Broadway. This coffee-table book, celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the American Theatre Wing, is a fascinating cornucopia of untold lore and never-before-seen photos as prismatic and unexpected as the theater itself. The oral history traces the American Theatre Wing as a defender of the country's most romantic ideals through two world wars, presciently establishing an interracial policy at the Stage Door Canteen despite being denounced from the well of the United States Senate. In succeeding decades the ATW has burnished those ideals through its unflagging support of artists from Broadway, Off Broadway, and regional theater many of whom vividly tell their own stories in the book, including Angela Lansbury, Patti LuPone, Audra McDonald, Harold Prince, Neil Patrick Harris, James Corden, and Lin-Manuel Miranda.
