	The Importance of Being Earnest
		The 1952 film version, directed by Anthony Asquith, was, in my opinion, much better, and this new film will not displace the 1952 film as the definitive film of the play.
		The 1952 film was in effect a filming of a stage play with very few changes in script or in setting of the scenes.
		The actors in 1952 delivered their lines in declamatory fashion as one would on stage in a theatre, a way of speaking well suited to Wilde’s memorable lines.

	Comedy Films
		Film entrepreneur Mack Sennett, soon nicknamed "The King of Comedy" and "The Master of Slapstick Comedy," formed the Keystone Company (and Studios) in 1912 - it soon was the leading producer of slapstick and comic characters.
		Their dozens of short films and twenty-seven feature-length films were produced over three decades (the 20s to the 40s), including such film classics as Sons of the Desert (1933) - arguably their best film, Way Out West (1937), The Flying Deuces (1939), and A Chump At Oxford (1940).
		Plots of their hilarious films used situational mishaps or incidents to trigger chaos and personal jeopardy, usually with the dignified, superior-acting, pompous Ollie trying to succeed and boast, only to be frustrated, exasperated and sabotaged by the simple-mindedness, childishness and brainlessness of Stan.

	At-A-Glance Film Reviews: Ikiru (1952)
		Akira Kurosawa's brilliant 1952 film Ikiru (which means "to live" in English) is one of filmdom's most important and moving essays on what it means to be truly alive.
		The final forty five minutes of the film are unusual: the primary story arc is over, and this last chapter involves other characters reflecting on the main character's actions.
		The final two scenes are powerful; seldom has any film flooded me with such complex emotions.

		The film in question was Vittorio de Sica's The Bicycle Thief (I ladri di biciclette, 1948), probably the most famous film of the genre.
		The importance of the filmmaker (auteur) to the film's artistic merit was emphasized in line with the French director-oriented tradition of the 50's.
		The structures of expectation were strengthened rather aggressively: the need to classify films into good ones and bad ones finally led to a situation where even some non-realistic films were classified as neorealistic.

	Film Frame Dimensions
		From the late 1890's up thru approximately 1952, the 35mm film frame saw just three variations, the original 1.33:1 silent aperture, the briefly used (1930-31) "Movietone" semi-square frame, and the "Academy aperture" with an aspect ratio of 1.37:1.
		This was abandoned in favor of magnetic sound stripes on the film which slightly reduced the width of the image to 2.55:1.
		A few films were printed in 8 perf in Europe but the system was quickly abandoned as, like VistaVision, the conventional 35mm print proved to be exceptional.

	X-raying postwar Japan Ikiru (1952)
		The film is one in a series of Kurosawa masterpieces made between 1952 and 1963, considered to be the filmmaker’s richest period.
		On the one hand, the film depicts a “normalized” society, with its various institutions back in operation; on the other, in the scenes of Tokyo nightlife in particular, Ikiru hints at desperation and hysteria, perhaps a mania to forget, that speaks in its own way to the wartime horrors.
		The film’s narrative sheds light on the immensity of the struggle to overcome psychic and social odds.

	Film Series
		This two-part film was made during the beginning of the war in the Pacific when Japanese authorities encouraged filmmakers to glorify the samurai values of loyalty and self-sacrifice.
		This film is based on the well-known, true story about a group of forty-seven samurai who avenged their leader's death and ended their own lives in a ritual suicide.
		Some say that the public outrage fanned by this film was a contributing factor to the outlawing of prostitution in Japan in 1957.

	deseretnews.com - Movie review: The Tragedy of Othello: Moor of Venice \| Deseret Morning News Web edition
		With the aid of modern technology, the film has now been restored to what Welles more likely intended (though it is a scant 91 minutes) and though his trouble-plagued working conditions show through the seams and there are still some technical glitches here and there, this "Othello" is an amazing tribute to Welles' enormous talent.
		Welles adapted the play, directed the film and starred in the title role as the doomed Moor of Venice who is betrayed by his close associate Iago into thinking his lovely wife Desdemona has cheated behind his back and lied about it.
		But what makes the film important is Welles' camera work, which continually belies his battles with budget, lack of costumes, inferior equipment and other frustrating delays.

		Perhaps the most shocking thing about this film is the way in which the behaviour of the children Michel and Paulette is presented as being almost adult.
		Another problem was that the film was cut by 15 minutes to 85 minutes prior to its first release, resulting in an abrupt start and end to the film.
		This immense popularity and deluge of prizes is a genuine reflection of the quality of the film, which is a masterpiece by anyone's standards, but also of its capacity to engage and move its audience, no matter who that audience might be.

		Although the picture quality is stunningly clear, this re-issue lacks some of the power and charm of the original 1925 cut (as well as truncating the ending and obscuring some of the motivation).
		Luckily, the 1925 version is included, intact, on the bonus disc, with a new recording of music originally played with the film at the time of its first release.
		The bonus disc includes a 59-minute audio track of the film's Oscar-winning music score, a 7-minute sequence from an uncompleted silent short whose premise was revised and used in "Limelight," more color home movies, this time of Chaplin's family in 1950-51, along with 200 photos, posters, trailers, a documentary, introduction, and more.

	High Noon (1952)
		This taut, tightly-scripted, minimalist film tells the tale of a solitary, stoic, honor-bound marshal/hero, past his prime and already retired, who was left desolate and abandoned by the Hadleyville townspeople he had faithfully protected for many years (symbolically - during the World War II years).
		The film's theme song was made a popular hit by Western singer Frankie Laine.] Presumably, the Academy felt obligated to honor one of filmdom's greatest directors (DeMille) with the Best Picture Oscar, as his career was coming to an end.
		In the suspenseful film, every minute is packed with tension as time passes, symbolized by numerous instances of clock-watching and quick cuts to images of clocks ticking relentlessly toward the doom of high noon.

	Mladen Milicevic - Film Sound Beyond Reality
		All these film theories that attempt to classify film sound into absolute and complicated categories talk about sound which parallels or counterpoints the images, sound that is synchronous or asynchronous in relation to the images, sound that is either realistic or unrealistic, or sound that is literal or nonliteral.
		Bela Balasz wrote in 1952 that film sound would be most expressive when it was asynchronous to the picture.
		Normativelly in most of the films, no matter how loud the music in a disco club in reality may be, it is always cinematically treated as subordinate to the dialogue which is clearly heard over the music.
