Book Stella  Mother of Modern Acting

Download or read book Stella Mother of Modern Acting written by Sheana Ochoa and published by Hal Leonard Corporation. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Applause Books). Arthur Miller decided to become a playwright after seeing her perform with the Group Theater. Marlon Brando attributed his acting to her genius as a teacher. Theater critic Robert Brustein calls her the greatest acting teacher in America. At the turn of the 20th century by which time acting had hardly evolved since classical Greece Stella Adler became a child star of the Yiddish stage in New York, where she was being groomed to refine acting craft and eventually help pioneer its modern gold standard: method acting. Stella's emphasis on experiencing a role through the actions in the given circumstances of the work directs actors toward a deep sociological understanding of the imagined characters: their social class, geographic upbringing, biography, which enlarges the actor's creative choices. Always "onstage," Stella's flamboyant personality disguised a deep sense of not belonging. Her unrealized dream of becoming a movie star chafed against an unflagging commitment to the transformative power of art. From her Depression-era plays with the Group Theatre to freedom fighting during WWII, Stella used her notoriety as a tool for change. For this book, Sheana Ochoa worked alongside Irene Gilbert, Stella's friend of 30 years, who provided Ochoa with a trove of Stella's personal and pedagogical materials, and Ochoa interviewed Stella's entire living family, including her daughter Ellen; her colleagues and friends, from Arthur Miller to Karl Malden; and her students from Robert De Niro to Mark Ruffalo. Unearthing countless unpublished letters and interviews, private audio recordings, Stella's extensive FBI file, class videos and private audio recordings, Ochoa's biography introduces one of the most under recognized, yet most influential luminaries of the 20th century.

Book Hollywood Melodrama and the New Deal

Download or read book Hollywood Melodrama and the New Deal written by Anna Siomopoulos and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-04 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While many critics have analyzed the influence of the FDR administration on Hollywood films of the era, most of these studies have focused either on New Deal imagery or on studio interactions with the federal government. Neither type of study explores the relationship between film and the ideological principles underlying the New Deal. This book argues that the most important connections between the New Deal and Hollywood melodrama lie neither in the New Deal iconography of these films, nor in the politics of any one studio executive. Rather, the New Deal figures prominently in Hollywood melodramas of the Depression era because these films engage the political ideas underlying welfare state policies—ideas that extended the reach of government into the private realm. As the author shows, Hollywood melodramas interrogated New Deal principles of liberal empathy—consumer citizenship, the refeudalization of the state, and minimal economic redistribution—only to support welfare-state ideology in the end.

Book The Candles She Lit

Download or read book The Candles She Lit written by Stella K. Hershan and published by Greenwood. This book was released on 1993 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She would rather light a candle than curse the darkness and her glow has warmed the world. These words were spoken by U.N. Ambassador Adlai E. Stevenson after the death of Eleanor Roosevelt on November 7, 1962. The Candles She Lit brings to the reader for the first time hitherto untold stories of people whose lives had been dramatically changed--sometimes even saved--by the solace and practical aid of Eleanor Roosevelt. She was a woman of the people. Her life is a shining example of the difference one person can make, an extraordinary picture of a woman's service to mankind. As First Lady and during the long years after the White House, Mrs. Roosevelt worked untiringly to enhance the welfare and dignity of people everywhere. Every single appeal for help was answered, every letter of the hundreds she received daily got a reply. Everyone who came into her orbit, whether they were kings or servants, were treated with the same warmth and courteousness. Yet, she was not a paragon of virtue; she could get angry, she could laugh, mostly at herself, and she suffered a great deal. The Candles She Lit is both a brief biography of Eleanor Roosevelt and a testimony to the positive and influential effect she had on others. Youth, family, young adulthood and her marriage to Franklin, the White House period, and the years alone are richly portrayed. The picture that emerges is of an idealistic, intelligent, honest, and compassionate woman always ready to reach out to those in need. The role of Eleanor Roosevelt in the drafting of The Declaration of Human Rights is also pointed out. She considered the Declaration her crowning achievement because it encompasses every single human being on our planet. Stella K. Hershan draws on the testimony of numerous people from all walks of life. Anecdotes, stories, and memories of members of her staff, school children, college students, survivors of the Holocaust, the famous, and the not famous, provide a loving testimonial to the memory of one of the greatest women of the twentieth century.
