title: No. 18: Mahagonny

overview: Harry Smith’s final film; an epic four-screen projection. Smith worked on this cinematic transformation of Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht’s opera Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny (1929) for over ten years and considered it his magnum opus. The film was shot from 1970 to 1972 and edited for the next eight years.  The “program” of the film is meticulous, with a complex structure and order. The Weill opera is transformed into a numerological and symbolic system. Images in the film are divided into categories— portraits, animation, symbols and nature— to form the palindrome P.A.S.A.N.A.S.A.P. The film contains invaluable cameos of important avant-garde figures such as Allen Ginsberg, Patti Smith, and Jonas Mekas, intercut with installation pieces from Robert Mapplethorpe’s studio, New York City landmarks of the era, and Smith’s visionary animation.

Further stops along the way include Midwestern High School chorus practice and performances of ivy college a capella groups, not to mention jazz improvisation sessions, talent shows, and rockers doing high Kultur! A splendid time is guaranteed for all.” –Keith Sanborn

Desmond Llewelyn

biography:
Desmond Wilkinson Llewelyn (Newport, 12 de septiembre de 1914-Firle, Inglaterra; 19 de diciembre de 1999) fue un actor británico, conocido por representar el papel de Q en diecisiete películas de la serie Bond.

A pesar de las objeciones de su padre, Llewelyn decidió dedicarse a la actuación y fue aceptado en la Real Academia de Arte Dramático en 1934. En 1937, Llewelyn encontró trabajo con varios papeles pequeños en el escenario, trabajando con Matthew Forsyth y los Forsyth Players, y fue a través de esta compañía que Llewelyn conoció a Pamela Mary Pantlin con quien se casó en 1938. Al año siguiente, Llewelyn apareció en su primer largometraje, la comedia británica Ask a Policeman.

La incipiente carrera actoral de Llewelyn se vio interrumpida por el estallido de la guerra en 1939 , cuando fue nombrado segundo teniente de los Fusileros Reales de Gales. En 1940, su unidad participó en la lucha contra una división Panzer completa durante varios días cerca de la ciudad francesa de Lille, pero fueron superados en el intento de retirarse a Dunkerque, y Llewelyn fue capturado. Pasó el resto de la guerra en campos de prisioneros de guerra, primero en Laufen, antes de ser transferido al castillo de Colditz (Oflag IV-C) tras su intento de fuga de Laufen mediante un túnel. Llewelyn permaneció preso en Colditz hasta que fue liberado por las fuerzas aliadas en 1945.

biography:
Honor Blackman est une actrice britannique née le 22 août 1925 à Plaistow, Newham, près de Londres, et morte le 5 avril 2020 à Lewes1.

Elle possède un diplôme honorifique de l'Université de Londres-Est.

Après des débuts au théâtre après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, Honor Blackman se lance dans le cinéma à la fin des années 40, s'illustrant notamment dans Fame Is the Spur, Si Paris l'avait su ou A Boy, a Girl and a Bike, avant d'apparaître face à Elizabeth Taylor dans Guet-apens (1949) ou le film-catastrophe Atlantique latitude 41 (1958). Elle tourne parallèlement pour la télévision, et devient une star du petit écran et une icône féministe dans le rôle de Cathy Gale, première partenaire de John Steed dans Chapeau melon et bottes de cuir.

Profitant de ce succès, elle quitte le programme et retourne au cinéma, d'abord dans Jason et les Argonautes (1963) et surtout dans Goldfinger, troisième aventure cinéma de James Bond (1964). Face à Sean Connery (qu'elle retrouve quatre ans plus tard dans le western Shalako), elle incarne Pussy Galore, femme forte et indépendante, leader de l’équipe féminine de pilotes du Flying Circus et tueuse en chef d'Auric Goldfinger. Le personnage, considéré comme l'une des plus célèbres James Bond Girls, reviendra sur le devant de la scène en 2015 dans le roman Déclic mortel d'Anthony Horowitz.

Après l'aventure Bond, Honor Blackman mène une carrière solide entre cinéma (Les Chemins de la puissance, Le Dernier des Romains, Rio Verde, Une fille... pour le diable, Le Chat et le canari), théâtre et télévision où elle joue notamment dans quelques épisodes de Dr Who en 1986, ainsi que dans sept saisons de la série The Upper Hand, adaptation britannique de Madame est servie.

Родилась 22 августа 1925 в Плейстоу (Лондон, Эссекс, Англия).

Окончила Гилдхоллскую школу музыки и драмы, за обучение в которой заплатила, работая секретарем на государственной службе.

Во время Второй мировой войны была диспетчером Министерства внутренних дел.

Первую роль получила на сцене лондонского Вест-Энда в качестве дублера в «Морской свинке». Снималась в небольших ролях в фильмах «Проблеск» (1946) и «Слепая богиня» (1947), прежде чем всерьез решила заняться карьерой в кино. Однако, случившийся с ней нервный срыв и последующая госпитализация, не позволили продолжить работу в кино. После длительной реабилитации начала восстанавливать свою актерскую карьеру.

В 1961 году стала сниматься в сериалах, в первую очередь в очень популярном проекте «Мстители» с Патриком Макни в главной роли. Также начала вновь появляться на сцене, сыграв слепую героиню триллера «Дождись темноты», а также сыграв двойные роли в постановке «Мистер и миссис» по пьесам Ноэля Кауарда.

Продолжала работать даже в свои 90 лет — снялась в многолетнем английском популярном комедийном сериале «Поднятая рука» (1990) и выступила в своем сценическом шоу с участием одной женщины «Wayward Women».

Ушла из жизни 5 апреля 2020 года в Льюисе (Восточный Суссекс, Англия).
