Colonial America on Film and Television
Author: Bertil O. Österberg
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 0786450584
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
The early history of American settlement, pioneering, and independence is marked by fascinating characters and events often shrouded in legend. Filmmakers have sought to capture these characters, as diverse as Daniel Boone, Francis Marion and Pocahontas, and events, as disparate as the Lost Colony, the Boston Tea Party and the French and Indian War. This comprehensive filmography provides production information and commentary on all films and television episodes set during the years between the first settlements in the future United States and the fledgling country's War of 1812 with Britain. Films are arranged alphabetically, and a detailed introduction provides a thorough overview of the period, with references to films chronicling specific events.

Shooting Stars of the Small Screen
Author: Douglas Brode
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 0292783310
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
Since the beginning of television, Westerns have been playing on the small screen. From the mid-1950s until the early 1960s, they were one of TV's most popular genres, with millions of viewers tuning in to such popular shows as Rawhide, Gunsmoke, and Disney's Davy Crockett. Though the cultural revolution of the later 1960s contributed to the demise of traditional Western programs, the Western never actually disappeared from TV. Instead, it took on new forms, such as the highly popular Lonesome Dove and Deadwood, while exploring the lives of characters who never before had a starring role, including anti-heroes, mountain men, farmers, Native and African Americans, Latinos, and women. Shooting Stars of the Small Screen is a comprehensive encyclopedia of more than 450 actors who received star billing or played a recurring character role in a TV Western series or a made-for-TV Western movie or miniseries from the late 1940s up to 2008. Douglas Brode covers the highlights of each actor's career, including Western movie work, if significant, to give a full sense of the actor's screen persona(s). Within the entries are discussions of scores of popular Western TV shows that explore how these programs both reflected and impacted the social world in which they aired. Brode opens the encyclopedia with a fascinating history of the TV Western that traces its roots in B Western movies, while also showing how TV Westerns developed their own unique storytelling conventions.

Letters from Uncle Fred
Author: Frederick Spencer Kiley
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1499004869
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
When I published "Denizens of New Boston Road" Fred asked me why I had listed our brother Joseph Patrick Kiley Jr. as the author. It was not a mistake on my part; it was the only way I could get on with the project because I had been badgering him for weeks to allow me to list him as the author, which he was. At that time he was still teaching at Trenton State and I assume he was reluctant to let his students and associates see his published works. He mellowed after a short time, because everyone approved of his writings. The publication of "Denizens" led to a discussion of his other writings and that brought up the subject of the letters which we had been exchanging over the years. He told me that the letters meant a lot to him because he used them to force him to continue writing even when the mood to write wasn't "on" him. He also told me that the freedom he enjoyed in writing letters was the limited audience to whom he was writing; friends and family. In this publication I am violating that limitation by allowing you to enter into the audience that can see and read the thoughts he had intended for a select few. Fred felt that in letter writing there could be an intimate bonding between the writer and the recipient; in the best case a touching of souls. Fred was still an innocent in many respects; even after the war had stripped him of most of his innocence. He wrote using humor, sarcasm, and other artifices to conceal his true message which was love. He had a love for natural beauty, children and animals. He had admiration for talent, honesty and integrity. I hope that you can discover that by reading his letters. He was my big brother; and I loved him.
