When German Exiles Lit up Hollywood's Screens Lubitsch's biggest influence on Hollywood movies was the so-called "Lubitsch Touch." This was a method Lubitsch created to circumvent that strict moral code, known as the Hays Code, that bound filmmakers after the early 1930s. William (Wilhelm) Dieterle, a German-speaking director who came to Hollywood in 1929, was influential because of his historical films, such as The Life of Emile Zola (1937) and The Story of Louis Pasteur (1936), as well as romantic classics like The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1939) and Portrait of Jenny (1948). Dieterle showed Hollywood that historical films don't always have to portray military heroes; that historic events must be filmed with social and critical responsibility; and that the ugly can be made cinematically beautiful - for example, Charles Laughton's portrayal of the hunchback of Notre Dame. www.usc.edu /uscnews/stories/2600.html   (1350 words)

Action Vault - They Came From Hollywood Interview Recently, they have also served to inspire They Came From Hollywood, developer Octopus Motor's real-time strategy title in which you play as a monster, choosing among the 52-foot woman, Newtrino and several others derived from Haxton's less than fertile imagination. They Came From Hollywood is a little different - we don't have a variety of units for the player to control, and there's no build / resource aspect. They Came From Hollywood is currently being built around the modern era, but we've designed a few other time periods - 1920s, World War II and the Atomic Age (late '50s - early '60s). actionvault.ign.com /features/interviews/tcfhollywood.shtml   (1303 words)

UGO.com Games - They Came From Hollywood interview with Octopus Motor Described as a real-time strategy/action game, They Came From Hollywood puts players in the shoes - although they don't really wear shoes, per se - of one of ten towering terrors, fighting F-16s, blasting buildings, and of course, eating people. The entire game is being designed as a sandbox in which would-be monster lovers can take out their daily aggressions, and best of all, everything in the game is interactive, from the nuclear plant going critical to a fire hydrant busting open. If done right, They Came From Hollywood could reclaim that vibe when it's available Spring 2003, or at the very worst, after our marketing director drops the ball, we can turn to this game as an outlet instead of resetting his wallpaper to something foul. www.ugo.com /channels/games/features/theycamefromhollywood   (1890 words)
