Re: [Videolib] End of semester larks! Your help needed.

2010-05-18 Thread McKenzie, Rue

Hi all.  I'm late on this, but I think I've scanned all the original list and 
most if not all the replies.  Anyway, if they haven't already been included, I 
would suggest adding the Lara Croft films Tomb Raider and Cradle of Life.  I 
know, I'm sooo low brow here compared to most of the suggestions.

Ummm...I think she's fictional...:-)

Hi Gary,

I see a few Bette Davis films on the list, but some where she's at her most
wickedly transgressive seem to be missing:

"Of Human 
Bondage"—
1934
"Jezebel"—
1938
"The Letter"  —
1940
"The Little Foxes"  — 1941
"In This Our 
Life"—
1941
"Beyond the 
Forest"—
1949
"Dead 
Ringer"—
1964 [she's twins!]
"The Nanny"—
1965
"The 
Anniversary"—

Ninotchka by Lubitsch
Bed and Sofa by Avraam Room 
Circus by Aleksandrov 
Sisters by Bodrov
Commissar by Askoldov 
Hammer and Sickle by Livnev 
Little Vera by Pichul 
Sex Mission by Machulski

Where are the Hong Kong martial arts flicks? Many of them feature strong

For a Hong Kong flick off the beaten path, try Wu Yen: Anita Mui plays an 
emperor who is besotted with a bi-gender fox fairy. Not saying that it's a

Thanks, as always, Oksana for you magnificent command of cine-arcana.

I forgot about Night Editor...b cold dame!

The Marie Dressler is actually out in the Warner Archives
collection--we'll definitely bag it.

The others reside in the big archives in the sky, only, I'm afraid.

We've got the Stanwyck on order...can't wait.

Why or why isn't there more Kay Francis available?  Ever see "One Way
Passage" (1932) with Wm Powell?...wonderfully strange.  Kay looks like the
deco hood ornament from a 1932 Packard Touring car...amazing.

Thank you Gary for a pleasant take-my-mind-off work assignment.

Here are some titles that come to mind:

The under-rated Janis Carter in Framed (1947) but particularly Night 
Editor (1946): you don't get more cold-blooded fatale than this. (out on DVD)

Polly Moran and Marie Dressler in Politics (1931)  a Lysistrata 
story. (Warner Archive)

Front Page Woman (1935) with Bette Davis as a journalist competing 
against men but better still the whole Torchy Blane series now 
available from Warner Archive.

And speaking of series, what about all the Maisie films starring Ann 
Sothern from Maisie (1939) to Undercover Maisie (1947).  TCM shows 
them occasionally but not commercially out as far as I know.

Kay Francis deserves some space: she appeared in the title role of 
Dr. Monica (1934) and Mary Stevens M.D. (1933) this would be TCM territory
What about Barbara Stanwyck who se new DVD box set is either out now 
or out any minute now..

I wish I had more time.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues 
relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, 
preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and 
related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective 
working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication 
between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and 
distributors.

[Videolib] End of semester larks! Your help needed.

2010-05-17 Thread ghandman

Hi all

As a way of decompressing after the end of the semester, I'm putting
together a goofy videography of UCB video holdings entitled:

Vamps, Tramps, Hookers, Femmes Fatales and Kick-ass Gurrrls: Transgressive
Women in the Movies

http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/MRC/transgressivewomen.html

This is admittedly a real grab-bag:  includes women crossing sexual
boundaries, sundry violent babes, revenge narratives, madwomen, riot
guls, super-heroines, what have you...

What have I left out (besides catwoman from Batman Returns and Lisa
Simpson)?  I'm mainly looking for films in which the transgressive woman
plays a central or leading role.

Have fun!
