Download or read book The Fall of Buster Keaton written by James L. Neibaur and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2010-07-16 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born into a family of vaudevillians, Buster Keaton made his first film appearance in 1917 at the age of 21. By the early 1920s, he had established himself as one of the geniuses of silent cinema with such films as Sherlock, Jr. and The Navigator and his 1925 work, The General, placed at number 18 in the American Film Institute's poll of the 100 greatest features, the highest ranked silent film on the survey. But with the advent of sound in the late 1920s, silent stars like Keaton began to fall out of favor and the great comedian's career began to decline. In The Fall of Buster Keaton, James Neibaur assesses Keaton's work during the talking picture era, especially those made at MGM, Educational, and Columbia studios. While giving some attention to the early part of Keaton's career, Neibaur focuses on Keaton's contract work with the three studios, as well as his subsequent work as a gagman, supporting player, and television pitchman. The book also recounts the resurgence of interest in Keaton's silent work, which resulted in a lifetime achievement Oscar and worldwide recognition before his death in 1966. This fascinating account of an artist's struggle and triumph during the more challenging period of his career will be of interest to anyone wanting to learn about one of film's most influential performers.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER When they were kids in the suburbs of Los Angeles in the 1950s, Diane Keaton and her younger brother, Randy, were best friends and companions. But as they grew up, Randy became troubled, then reclusive. Before he was thirty, he was divorced, an alcoholic, a man who couldn’t hold on to full-time work—his life a world away from his sister’s, and from the rest of their family. Now Diane delves into the nuances of their shared, and separate, pasts to confront the difficult question of why and how Randy ended up living his life on “the other side of normal.” In beautiful and fearless prose intertwined with journal entries, letters, and poetry—much of it Randy’s own—and supplemented by personal photographs and artwork, this insightful, heartfelt memoir contemplates the inner workings of a family, the ties of love and responsibility that hold it together, and the special bond between siblings—even those who are pulled far apart.

Their red-hot and sublimely tender five-year union is under siege.

Book excerpt: Welcome to the Friends & Brothers Series Where three lifelong friends end up falling for one of the other friend's brothers. Three full-length books. Sky High Love Sloan Hayes loves her job as a pilot. But lately, all the travel, the never seeing her family or friends, was getting to her. Thanks to her two best friends, Camilla and Hazel, she knows she needs to make a change if she ever wants to get out of her funk. She wasn't expecting Asher Rickman to be her change. Asher was Camilla's older brother who moved away to live in London when he was in college. She hasn't seen him in years until one night, out of the blue, she runs into him while in London. He's funny, smart and so sexy it makes her eyes hurt just looking at him. But nothing can happen. He's her best friend's brother. Asher hasn't seen Sloan Hayes in who knows how long, but she's no longer the lanky, pre-teen girl he remembered from his own teen years. She was all woman. And he wanted her. There's just one problem. She's his sister's best friend. And there is no way he can have her. But he can't stop thinking about her no matter how hard he tries. Could he somehow convince her that it didn't matter? That love could be worth it? Bridge To Love Hazel Landenberger believes there is a perfect person in the world for everyone. Only, hers is taking forever to show up. Until he does, she stays busy with her job as a county engineer and her two best friends. But then, an accident happens, injuring her badly with no one around to take care of her. No one but Nash Hayes. Nash is her friend Sloan's brother and she'd never once had an impure thought about him. He can't say the same about her, though. Years ago, Nash had secret feelings for his sister's friend, but knowing nothing could ever come of them, pushed them deep down inside his heart, never to be seen again. Or so he'd thought. But seeing her in the ER, hurt and in pain, brought them barreling back to the surface. He wanted her. Badly. But would she feel the same way? Could he convince her that he was her perfect man? When It's Love Camilla Rickman was a woman who knew what she wanted out of life. Or at least she'd thought she did. With both of her friends in love and on their way to being married, she'd started questioning her own life. Was she doing enough to put herself out there? To find her own happily-ever-after? Deciding it's now or never, she joins a gym only to find her best friend's brother, Keaton at her first class. Keaton had never been someone she'd thought about in any way other than brotherly.

Download or read book American Drama in the Age of Film written by Zander Brietzke and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2007-06-28 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is theater really dead? Does the theater, as its champions insist, really provide a more intimate experience than film? If so, how have changes in cinematic techniques and technologies altered the relationship between stage and film? What are the inherent limitations of representing three-dimensional spaces in a two-dimensional one, and vice versa? American Drama in the Age of Filmexamines the strengths and weaknesses of both the dramatic and cinematic arts to confront the standard arguments in the film-versus-theater debate. Using widely known adaptations of ten major plays, Brietzke seeks to highlight the inherent powers of each medium and draw conclusions not just about how they differ, but how they ought to differ as well. He contrasts both stage and film productions of, among other works, David Mamet'sGlengarry Glen Ross, Sam Shepard'sTrue West, Edward Albee'sWho's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, Margaret Edson'sWit, Tony Kushner'sAngels in America, Tennessee Williams'sCat on a Hot Tin Roof, Arthur Miller'sDeath of a Salesman, and August Wilson'sThe Piano Lesson. In reading the dual productions of these works, Brietzke finds that cinema has indeed stolen much of theater's former thunder, by making drama more intimate, and visceral than most live events. But theater is still vital and matters greatly, Brietzke argues, though for reasons that run counter to many of the virtues traditionally attributed to it as an art form, such as intimacy and spontaneity. Brietzke seeks to revitalize perceptions of theater by challenging those common pieties and offering a new critical paradigm, one that champions spectacle and simultaneity as the most, not least, important elements of drama.
