AUSTRALIA ; SENTIMENTAL BLOKE, THE (AT, Raymond Longford, 1919) ; NIGHT THE PROWLER, THE (AT, Jim Sharman, 1978) Summary: Almost from the inception of movies, the Buckley family were involved, so it was natural for the young Tony Buckley to get a job at a film laboratory, and move into film editing. Despite being warned by a veteran of film, "There's no future in it", Buckley began a career that was to involve a cast of thousands including Australian film pioneers, Raymond Longford and Ken G. Hall, Australian and international stars, and the pick of the Australian film and television industry. As an acclaimed editor, then producer, Tony Buckley's films have attracted numerous accolades and awards. In Behind a Velvet Light Trap, Buckley chronicles the frequent disasters on the set and the antics of actors and film crew with wry humour and a firm sense of professionalism. It is an insider's view of Australian movies and television where we get to meet some of the vivid personalities including Rudolf Nureyev, Michael Powell, Patrick White, James Mason, Ruth Park, Leo McKern and Joan Sutherland. --BOOK JACKETISBN: 9781740667906Contents: -- Preface -- Acknowledgement -- PART ONE -- 1 -- Saturdays At The Sesqui -- 2 --The Sentimental Bloke - Meeting Raymond Longford -- 3 -- Discovering 'The Hidden Power' -- 4 -- The Voice Of Australia -- 5 -- 'There's No Future In It, Son!' -- 6 -- Seven Miles From Sydney And 10,000 Miles From Care -- 7 -- Letters Home: 189 Cromwell Road - 'Hurry, My Milliner Is Waiting!' -- 8 -- Five For Europe: A Telegram From Home -- 9 -- Another Cinesound Excusive! -- 10 -- Forgotten Cinema And The Australian Renaissance -- 11-- Michael Powell and S.Y.M -- 12 -- Home to Avening -- 13 -- 'The Locomotive that Drives Everything Else -- 14 -- Mercer Clips and Hollywood -- 15 -- Le Reveil Dans La Terreur - Wake in Fright -- 16 -- Ballet in the Bedroom -- 17 -- Insular Fairyland - anyone for Croquet? -- 18 -- ...'You wanna make a film about a woman???!!' -- 19 -- My Sons, My Horses - The Anatomy of a Motion Picture -- 20 -- 'This Bizarre Work' - The Night of the Prowler -- 21 -- The very strange case of the Unknown Industrial Prisoner -- 22 -- Not In The Public Interest - the Juanita Factor -- 23 -- Flight Ten From Honolulu - A complete Change Of Direction -- 24 -- A Landmark Australian Film -- PART TWO -- 25 -- ...And Now For Something Completely Different - Television! -- 26 -- The Tree Of Humankind - Man On A Limb! -- 27 -- The Heroes Of The Miniseries -- 28 -- Prostitution - Adapting Bryce Courtenay - And The Mysterious Case Of The Stolen Logie -- PART THREE -- 29 -- Back To The Reel World -- 30 -- On Their Selection - The $24,000 Lunch! -- 31 -- A Celebration - Then Shadows Fall -- 32 -- 'That Resilient Little Beast' - But Not Quite A Heart Stopper! -- 33 -- An Apple For The Teacher - Food for thought -- 34 -- Shattered Dreams - Broken Promises -- The Final Reel - The Full Circle

This report was developed by The Media, Diversity, & Social Change (MDSC) Initiative at USC's Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism dedicated to addressing issues of inequality in entertainment.
"The Comprehensive Annenberg Report on Diversity (CARD) assesses inclusion on screen and behind the camera in fictional films, TV shows, and digital series distributed by 10 major media companies (21st Century Fox, CBS,
Comcast NBC Universal, Sony, The Walt Disney Company, Time Warner, Viacom, Amazon, Hulu, and Netflix). Movies theatrically released in 2014 by the major studios or their art house divisions were included in the sample,
provided they met a certain threshold of domestic box office performance (see Appendix A).¹ Prime-time first run scripted series as well as digital offerings airing from September 1st 2014 to August 31st 2015 were sampled on
broadcast, popular basic cable, premium channels or streaming services associated with the companies listed above (see Appendix B).² In total, the sample included 414 stories or 109 motion pictures and 305 broadcast,
cable, and digital series.
The major unit of analysis was the speaking or named character.³ Each speaking character was assessed for role, demographics, domesticity, and hypersexualization.4 Behind the camera, the gender of directors and writers of
each film and every episode within a sampled series was evaluated. Race/ethnicity was assessed for directors of movies as well as those helming the season premiere episode of television/digital programs. Finally, the gender
composition of CEOs, members of executive suites, boards of directors, and employees at the Executive" [Taken from the executive summary included in the report]Notes: Available at: http://annenberg.usc.edu/pages/~/media/MDSCI/CARDReport%20FINAL%2022216.ashx

Studies have been conducted in the past on women in the mainstream U.S film industry, but little research has yet been done in the U.S independent film arena. To this end, we developed a research strategy with a two-prong approach.
First, we quantitatively document the involvement of female content creators of U.S films at the Sundance Film Festival, assessing the gender of 11,197 directors, writers, producers, cinematographers, and editors across 820 films classified as U.S narratives (534 films) or documentaries (286 films) between 2002 and 2012.
The second prong documents the qualitative experiences of female filmmakers through interviews with emerging and seasoned content creators as well as key industry gate-keepers. Here, we surveyed 51 individuals to unpack the specific obstacles that face female directors and producers in the independent film arena. We also assessed participants' perceptions of opportunities that may increase women's involvement behind the camera" -- taken from the Executive SummaryNotes: This research was commissioned by the Sundance Insitute and Women in Film Los Angeles thorugh their 'Women Filmmakers Initiative'.Contents: -- pages 3-4: case statement: Independent Women Filmmakers: setting the agenda for change -- page 5: allied organizations list -- page 7: 2012-2013 mentorship program participants -- pages 9-11: research study executive summary -- pages 13-33: research study: exploring the barriers and opportunities for independent women filmmakers -- page 34: acknowledgments -- pages 35-43: works cited and notes --

No longer must you suffer silently as some clerk in a “Tod Browning’s Freaks” T-shirt bombards you with baffling allusions to “wire-fu” pictures, “Todd-AO process,” and “Sam Raimi.” By helping to close the knowledge gap between average moviegoers and incorrigible Snobs, the dictionary lets you in on hidden gems that film geeks have been hoarding (such as Douglas Sirk and Guy Maddin movies) while exposing the trash that Snobs inexplicably laud (e.g., most chop-socky films and Mexican wrestling pictures). Delightfully illustrated and handily organized in alphabetical order for quick reference, The Film Snob*s Dictionary is your fail-safe companion in the video store, the cineplex, or wherever insufferable Film Snobs congregate.

The movie department filled more pages than any other editorial beat except the focal " Newsfronts"section.....All this is reflected in the book you are now holding in your hands.It is by no means a systematic, conscientious history of Hollywood....We have chosen, instead, to win now the finest pictures in in LIFE's files more than 750 selections, which recaptures both the symbiosis between reporters and reportees and the art that the magazine itself brought to its photographic coverage of moviemaking."

In the past two decades a whole new generation of cinematographers has emerged on the international film scene. Often using spare and original lighting and camera techniques that would have horrified oldtime Hollywood, directors of photography have made a public mark on the film-making process that was all but un-thinkable in earler years. No other volume of in-depth conversations with the generation of cinematographers is available to students and moviegoers. These interviews are rich in practical detail as well as stimulating discussions of aesthetic issues. Thus, reading this book is like taking a class from fifteen top cameramen. Taken together, the conversations in this book reveal the remarkable range of creativity and dedication demanded of the visual artist in feature filmmaking today." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes indexISBN: 0520053362Donation: donated by the family of Wayne Levy, 2006Contents: -- introduction -- Nestor Almendros -- John Alonzo -- John Bailey -- Bill Butler -- Michael Chapman -- Bill Draker -- Conrad Hall -- Laszlo Kovacs -- Owen Roizman -- Vittorio Storaro -- Mario Tosi -- Haskell Wexler -- Billy Williams -- Gordon Willis -- Vilmos Zsigmond -- glossary -- index --

Source: USPlace: JacksonPublisher: University of MississippiPubDate: 2012PhysDes: xliv, 174 p. ; 24 cmSeries: Conversations with filmmakers seriesSubject: FILM WORKERS ; IVORY, JAMES ; MERCHANT, ISMAIL ; JHABVALA, RUTH PRAWER ; CITY OF YOUR FINAL DESTINATION, THE (US, James Ivory, 2009) Summary: " Merchant-Ivory: Interviews gathers together for the first time interviews made over the past five decades with director James Ivory (b.1928), producer Ismail Merchant (1936-2005), and screenwriter Ruth Prawer Jhabvala (b. 1927), the creators of such films as Maurice, Howards End, The Remains of the Day, and A Room with a View. Beginning with their earliest work in India and ending with James Ivory's latest film, The City of Your Final Destination (2009), the book traces their careers together, while offering valuable insights into their creative filmmaking process. As independent filmmakers, they have developed an idiosyncratic approach that resists facile classification. This book shows how the filmmaking tea has always taken considerable care in casting their films, as well as treating actors with respect. This is a deliberate policy, designed to bring out one of the triumvirate's principal thematic concerns - the impact of the "clash of cultures" on individuals. Partly this has been inspired by their collective experiences of living and working in different cultures. They do not offer any answers to this issue; rather they believe that their task is simply to raise awareness, to make filmgoers conscious of the importance of cultural senstivities that assume paramount significance in any exchange, whether verbal or nonverbal.

The magazine has been distinguished by its enthusiasm for previously neglected areas of the American cinema. It has paid homage to directors whose reputations had been stifled by the belief of previous generations of critics that good films emerged from Hollywood only as a result of happy accidents that brought together a compatible group of craftsmen, some competent actors, and a well-written script. As part of the process of rediscovering the American cinema, the editors and contributors of Movie interviewed many of the major directors at some length. These interviews are far more searching than the usual show-business chatter. Among the directors interviewed were Alfred Hitchcock, Vincente Minnelli, Nicholas Ray, and Otto Preminger. However, the magazine has not dealt exclusively with Hollywood- among the interviews included in this anthology are one with Claude Chabrol and a revealing conversation between Jean-Luc Godard and Michaelangelo Antonioni. A number of previously unpublished interviews are also included. The first-person accounts of the business of directing films gathered here form a fascinating and invaluable collection of source material." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: "The articles ... are taken from the first fourteen issues of Movie, covering the years 1962 to 1965.".; Includes bibliographical references.Contents: -- introduction -- General Articles -- the British cinema -- films, directors, and critics -- the iconography of the movies -- Alfred Hitchcock -- the mechanics of suspense -- suspense and meaning -- rope -- the universal Hitchcock -- Otto Preminger -- why Preminger? -- from laura to angel face -- carmen and Bess -- bonjour Tristesse -- exodus -- attitudes in advise and content -- Howard Hawks --Hawks' comedies -- gentlemen prefer blondes -- Hatari! -- Nicholas Ray -- the cinema of Nicholas Ray -- Joesph Losey -- contamination -- king and country -- Director Studies -- the Darwinian world of Claude Chabrol -- Michael Powell -- Frank Tashlin & the new world -- six films of Josef von Sternberg -- Film Reviews -- Now about these women -- Tokyo story -- Judex -- Vanina Vanini -- the trial of Joan of Arc -- La baie des anges -- Paris nous appartient -- Hercules conquers Atlantis -- Freaks --

From Snow White to Moana, from Pinocchio to Frozen, the animated films of Walt Disney Studios have moved and entertained millions. But few fans know that behind these groundbreaking features was an incredibly influential group of women who fought for respect in an often ruthless male-dominated industry and who have slipped under the radar for decades.
In The Queens of Animation, bestselling author Nathalia Holt tells their dramatic stories for the first time, showing how these women infiltrated the boys' club of Disney's story and animation departments and used early technologies to create the rich artwork and unforgettable narratives that have become part of the American canon. As the influence of Walt Disney Studios grew — and while battling sexism, domestic abuse, and workplace intimidation — these women also fought to transform the way female characters are depicted to young audiences.
With gripping storytelling, and based on extensive interviews and exclusive access to archival and personal documents, The Queens of Animation reveals the vital contributions these women made to Disney's Golden Age and their continued impact on animated filmmaking, culminating in the record-shattering Frozen, Disney's first female-directed full-length feature film. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780316439145Contents: Preface -- Timeline -- One day when we were young -- Whistle while you work -- When you wish upon a star -- Waltz of the flowers -- Little April shower -- Baby mine -- Aquarela do Brasil -- You're in the army now -- Zip-a-dee-doo-dah -- So this is love -- In a world of my own -- You can fly! -- Once upon a dream -- Dalmatian plantation -- It's a small world -- Up, down, touch the ground -- Part of your world -- I'll make a man out of you -- For the first time in forever -- Happily ever after -- Acknowledgements -- Notes -- Index.

Secret lives of Asian Australian cinema : offshore labour in transnational film industries in Studies in Australasian cinema (2008) vol.2 iss.3 p.213-227
Author: Labato, Ramon PhysDes: ArticleSubject: INDUSTRY, FILM. AUSTRALIA ; PRODUCTION ASIA ; PRODUCTION DEALS. AUSTRALIA ; ASIANS AND THE CINEMA. AUSTRALIA ; FILM WORKERS Summary: This article examines some of the material dimensions of Asian Australian cinema through an analysis of selected regional production and post-production flows since 1980, and the debates surrounding them. It begins with a theoretical discussion of the role of labour within the global film industry, before moving on to consider controversies around the offshoring of film production to lower-cost destinations. Specific examples of production relays between Asia and Australia are analysed in the context of models of cultural labour offered by Toby Miller et al. and Ben Goldsmith. The author proposes a definition of Asian Australian cinema that seeks to attend to cross-border collaboration at a variety of levels and to render visible ‘below-the-line’ Asian Australian interfaces that do not necessarily register on screen. -- AbstractNotes: Part of Special Issue: Transnational Asian Australian Cinema, part 2

The emergence of a globalized network of film festivals has enabled these young directors to make and circulate films that are changing the aesthetics and politics of art house cinema and challenging feminist genealogies. Extending formal analysis to the production and reception contexts of a variety of feature films, White explores how women filmmakers are both implicated in and critique gendered concepts of authorship, taste, genre, national identity, and human rights. Women's Cinema, World Cinema revitalizes feminist film studies as it argues for an alternative vision of global media culture." -- BACK COVER BOOK BLURBNotes: Formerly CIP; Also issued online; Includes filmography; Includes bibliographical references (pages 235-246) and indexISBN: 9780822358053Contents: -- acknowledgments -- introduction -- To each her own cinema : world cinema and the woman cineaste : Jane Campion's Cannes connections; Lucrecia Martel's vertiginous authorship; Samira Makhmalbaf's sororal cinema -- Framing feminisms : women's cinema as art cinema : Deepa Mehta's elemental feminism; Iranian diasporan women directors and cultural capital -- Feminist film in the age of the chick flick : global flows of women's cinema : engendering new Korean cinema in Jeong Jae-eun's Take care of my cat; Nadine Labaki's celebrity -- Network narratives : Asian women directors two-timing the system in Nia Dinata's Love for share -- Zero Chou and the spaces of Chinese lesbian film -- Is the whole world watching?

Women vs Hollywood : the fall and rise of women in film / Helen O'Hara London: Robinson, 2021.
Call No: 45[3-02] OHAAuthor: O'Hara, Helen Edition: 2021Place: LondonPublisher: RobinsonPubDate: 2021PhysDes: xiii, 354 pages ; 24 cmSubject: WOMEN FILM WORKERS ; FRANCHISES ; ME TOO Summary: A call to arms from Empire magazine’s ‘geek queen’, Helen O’Hara, that explores women’s roles – both in front of and behind the camera – since the birth of Hollywood, how those roles are reflected within wider society and what we can do to level the playing field.
Hollywood was born just over a century ago, at a time of huge forward motion for women’s rights. With no rules in place to stop them, there were women who forged ahead in many areas of filmmaking. Yet, despite the work of early pioneers like Dorothy Arzner, Mabel Normand, Mary Pickford and Alice Guy-Blaché, it soon came to embody the same old sexist standards. Women found themselves fighting a system that fed on their talent, creativity and beauty but refused to pay them the same respect as their male contemporaries – until now...
The tide has finally begun to turn. A new generation of women, both in front of and behind the camera, are making waves in the industry and are now shaping some of the biggest films to hit our screens.
In Women vs Hollywood: The Fall and Rise of Women in Film, film critic Helen O’Hara takes a closer look at the pioneering and talented women of Hollywood and their work in film since Hollywood began. And in understanding how women were largely written out of Hollywood’s own origin story, and how the films we watch are put together, we can finally see how to put an end to a picture that is so deeply unequal – and discover a multitude of stories out there just waiting to be told. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781472144430
