	Stella (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Stella, a 1955 Greek film featuring Melina Mercouri, is a retelling of Carmen, and is considered by many to be the most important title in Greek cinema.
		Stella was originally intended to be a stage play with the title Stella with the Red Gloves, but it was never staged.
		At the Cannes Film Festival, where the film was screened, Melina met Jules Dassin, her future husband, mentor, and director.

		Stella’s sense of urgency to see and finally confess her knowledge to Robert, as conveyed within the novel, was not as apparent in the film.
		Within the film Stella appears to be relived to see Robert but at the same time she is being rushed to the car and therefore, unable to depict the feelings and thoughts that weigh so heavily on her conscience (as depicted in the novel).
		Stella’s face is pensive and her disposition is uncomfortable; through the viewing of the film, the idea of Stella’s worrisome thoughts and despair are reinforced.

	STELLA STREET
		Originally a series of ten-minute shorts on the BBC, Stella Street is best when presented as comic episodes, such as a game of cricket down on the common green (with Nicholson as an accomplished player).
		As the stars go broke, they are forced to reprise their more famous film roles to somewhat bored local tour groups, a scene that mirrors some of the actors' recent career choices.
		Stella Street is a mindless comedy that pretends to be nothing more.

		As her sister is being taken away, Stella questions her decision in sending her sister away.
		Stella knew that Blanche could not be by herself, especially back at home, and Stanley did not want her in the house with his new family.
		In the film, however, Stella wises-up and runs upstairs with her child, claiming that she will never return to Stanley.

		Stella's desire (her sexuality, taste, and joie de vivre) is shown to be cheap, narcissistic and uncouth, and the film would therefore appear to treat female desire as a classically disruptive threat to these social orders.
		Stella eats no apple, and the final shot of her is of her in movement, the sign, Rothman might suppose, of a different relationship to aloneness, one which accommodates it, even courts it.
		Now the fact that Stella's otherness requires a space to be born is enough to supply us with the terms of feminism, since it is clearly a patriarchal order (also an order of class) that places her in the position of needing this space in order to be born.

	Stella Movie: Stella DVD is available from Bestprices.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		"Stella" is the second remake of the much loved tearjerker "Stella Dallas," first made in 1925 with Belle Bennett in the lead and later remade in 1937 with Barbara Stanwyck.
		Tough and fiercely independent, Stella discovers that she is pregnant after a brief relationship with Dr. Stephen Dallas, but is too proud to accept a marriage of convenience from him or her well-meaning best friend, John Goodman (O BROTHER, WHERE ARE THOU?).
		STELLA is a warm, humorous, and thoroughly entertaining film that speaks to the heart of all audiences!

	Stella Dallas (1925)
		Stella is brought to a realization of the fact that she is a drag on Laurel who takes after her father.
		Stella, deciding that no sacrifice is too great for her daughter's happiness, hunts up her friend Ed, now a drunkard, and tells Laurel she is going to marry him and send her to visit her father on the plea that she and Ed are going away for a year.
		Called upon to depict Stella at three ages, the manner in which she has registered the physical as well as the mental changes is remarkable.

	Film Review: Stella Does Tricks
		Stella is still a teenager, still romantic in that you-and-me-against-the-world foreverness, while acting tough when the mood takes her.
		She gives Stella a living reality that is both tender and wild, in control and so far out that she’s lost in space: a girl who is a woman who wants to be a girl, trapped in a runaway cycle of dependence and no-way-back.
		Stella is in London working for a weird, middle-aged pimp (James Bolam), who talks nursery to her.

	Stella Does Tricks (1996) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		I think my biggest pet peeve is that the filmmakers spent too much time trying to drive home the point that Stella was molested as a child (after the third flashback, even the dumbest audience member understands) and too little time developing the characters.
		I would have liked to know more about why Eddie is the way he is, and why Stella latches on to him as opposed to, say, one of her older Johns who isn't a drug addict.
		Perhaps it was intentional that the only person we get to know is Stella, because that way we can see just how messed up and confusing her life is. I'm just not sure.

	Rear Window film review
		Stella also displays her knowledge of medications when she and the other voyeurs see what may be an impending suicide.
		Stella is a key member of the team that gathers around Jeffries to solve the apparent crime.
		Stella notes that she is "not an educated woman," but her tough, common sense arguments that Jeffries should marry Lisa are at least as persuasive as his somewhat pompous demurrals.

	Orlando Weekly - Film Review - How Stella Got Her Groove Back
		Stella and various family members, friends and even strangers spend the bulk of "How Stella Got Her Groove Back," an uneven adaptation of the Terry McMillan best seller, worrying that the title character's relationship with a man two decades her junior just won't work.
		Stella, taking a spur-of-the-moment vacation after catching a television commercial advertising the wonders of Jamaica (as does this movie), meets her million-dollar-smile man at breakfast and wards off the advances of a pair of libidinous new acquaintances of Delilah's.
		The film's elusive charm reveals itself in the sweet chemistry between Bassett and Diggs; the sassy, nonstop chatter of Regina King as Stella's little sister, Vanessa; and the conviviality of a homecoming barbecue thrown in honor of the new couple's return from Jamaica.

	A Streetcar Named Desire (1951)
		This film masterpiece was directed by independent director Elia Kazan (his first piece of work with Williams), a socially-conscious director who insisted that the film be true to the play (that he had also directed on Broadway).
		The electrifying film tells the feverish story of the pathetic mental and emotional demise of a determined, yet fragile, repressed and delicate Southern lady (Blanche) born to a once-wealthy family of Mississippi planters.
		Her impoverished, tragic downfall in the squalid, cramped and tawdry French Quarter one-bedroom apartment of her married sister (Stella) and animalistic brother-in-law (Stanley) is at the hands of savage, brutal forces in modern society.

	Ransom Center Acquires Archive of Legendary Acting Teacher Stella Adler
		The Adler archive is a rich trove of correspondence, manuscripts, typescripts, video and audio tapes, photographs and other materials that trace and define Adler's career, beginning with her start in the New York Yiddish Theater in 1906, where as a child she acted alongside her parents, Jacob and Sara Adler.
		Stella Adler's teaching notes for the role of Amanda Wingfield in Tennessee Williams' "The Glass Menagerie." Stella used these notes in a 1974 class in Script Interpretation at the Stella Adler Conservatory.
		Stella sent this note a few hours before the opening performance of Clurman's production of "The Waltz of the Toreadors." Before staging this Jean Anouilh comedy, Clurman had brought plays by Anouilh and Jean Giraudoux to Broadway.

		This film shows that she had acting ability in abundance, but by itself her acting ability cannot explain why it was that Pickford was the greatest silent star, perhaps even the greatest star who ever lived.
		Stella Maris is the familiar Pickford persona, the young `girl with the curls'; Unity Blake is something altogether different.
		'Stella Maris' could equally have been called 'Unity Blake' due to the pivotal nature of the role played by her character.In many ways it is her film and it is her involvement which leaves a lasting effect in our memories.

	Women in Greek Cinema -- April Kallas Householder
		Stella can be said to embody the harmartia, or tragic flaw, because she refuses to define herself by the social standards of the town.
		In the film, Mercouri plays the role of Ilia, a happy Greek prostitute who becomes the object of study for American journalist Homer Thrace (played by Dassin.) Ilia is the typical musical heroine, able to blur the reality of the story with the film's musical numbers.
		Film tourists like the idea of sexually available women, especially when they are tethered to a narrative about the modern Greek state.

		Stella (Angela Bassett) is a stunning, perfectly fit, high-powered 40-year-old San Francisco stockbroker with a sumptuous home in Marin County and a well-behaved 11-year-old son.
		Stella's firing seems particularly implausible after the way her expertise and money-making skills have been established at the outset.
		King also provokes plenty of laughs as Stella's uncensored younger sister, while Diggs, making his film debut after a Broadway stint in "Rent," has the widest, brightest smile the screen has seen since Julia Roberts first appeared and is every bit the dreamboat he's meant to be.

		The first scene that was shot consisted of the three “Stella” members walking down the street on their way to apply for a paper route job.
