Portraits de 50 femmes inspirantes qui font bouger les lignes Nouvelle vague de féminisme, #metoo, balance ton porc, ton bar… Où en sont les femmes aujourd'hui?

Pour répondre à ces questions, ce livre met en lumière 50 femmes aux parcours très différents. L'une est humoriste, l'autre pompière, pâtissière, avocate ou pilote de chasse.

D'Agnès Jaoui, actrice, à Samia Orosemane, humoriste, en passant par Scarlette Le Corre, patronne de pêche, Christine Vernay, vigneronne bio, ou Élise Tunstall, ébéniste, ce livre brosse le portrait de ces femmes d'exception au parcours atypique dont elles sont sorties victorieuses et sur lequel elles acceptent de revenir, le temps d'une conversation à cœur ouvert, pour nous partager leurs rêves, leurs espoirs et leurs conseils.

Sondheim in Our Time and His offers a wide-ranging historical investigation of the landmark works and extraordinary career of Stephen Sondheim, a career which has spanned much of the history of American musical theater. Each author uncovers those aspects of biography, collaborative process, and contemporary context that impacted the creation and reception of Sondheim's musicals. In addition, several authors explore in detail how Sondheim's shows have been dramatically revised and adapted over time. Multiple chapters invite the reader to rethink Sondheim's works from a distinctly contemporary critical perspective and to consider how these musicals are being reenvisioned today. Through chapters focused on individual musicals, and others that explore a specific topic as manifested throughout his entire career, plus an afterword by Kristen Anderson-Lopez; by digging deep into the archives and focusing intently on his scores; from interviews with performers, directors, and bookwriters, and close study of live and recorded productions--volume editor W. Anthony Sheppard brings together Sondheim's past with the present, thriving existence of his musicals.

Cynique, Billy Wilder? On a coutume de le dire. Et grossier, voire vulgaire. Son cinéma est lourd, certes, mais d'une lourdeur littérale. Auteur de quelques-unes des comédies parmi les plus drôles de l'histoire, émule de Lubitsch, il est, par excellence, le cinéaste de la gravité. La force du terrestre et la pesanteur sont au cœur de ses films. Les mouvements et les discours, le rire et la politique, tout est affaire de poids dans Certains l'aiment chaud, dans Sunset Boulevard comme dans Un, deux, trois. Wilder est moins un satiriste, en vérité, qu'un historien. Tantôt il analyse les origines et les évolutions de la société américaine, tantôt il décrit une Allemagne marquée par le nazisme. Aller de la gravité matérielle à la gravité historique est dès lors la trajectoire de ce livre, qui propose une vision inédite d'une œuvre fondamentale.

Aquel trabajo era un auténtico placer. Era un gusto mirar a Julie Roper... pero lo que Billy Lucas tenía que hacer era vigilarla por encargo de su hermano, y sin que ella lo supiera. Cuando ella se escapó de casa una noche, se encontró indefensa, pero allí estaba él para ayudarla... bajo una falsa identidad. Aquella jovencita quería descubrir el lado salvaje de la vida... y quería que Billy la escoltara. ¿Quién iba a pensar que esa inocente veinteañera podía convertirse en una irresistible tentación y que un espíritu libre como Lucas podía acabar teniendo buenas intenciones? Pero, habiéndola engañado una vez, iba a ser difícil convencerla de que lo que veía en los ojos de Billy era amor verdadero.

Si en Las paradojas del guionista Daniel Tubau nos ponía en guardia contra las teorías dogmáticas, en El guión del siglo XXI nos anuncia que el guión previsible y mecanizado del Hollywood actual y la televisión convencional ha entrado en crisis. Los guionistas ya no quieren limitarse a seguir esquemas simples o fórmulas mágicas aptas para todos los públicos. Se trata, afortunadamente, de una crisis de crecimiento y, frente al pesimismo de quienes sienten un miedo instintivo hacia las nuevas narrativas, cada día surgen más alternativas y propuestas interesantes. Algunas se hallan en el futuro, o en este asombroso presente que nos ofrecen las nuevas tecnologías, desde la narrativa hipertextual y la realidad aumentada a los videojuegos o Internet; desde las nuevas series de canales como HBO al crossmedia o el transmedia. Otras se encuentran en el pasado, en la rica tradición de una historia audiovisual que se quiso olvidar en las últimas décadas del siglo XX. Tubau demuestra en El guión del siglo XXI que la profesión de guionista o narrador audiovisual también se está trasformando y que no debe limitarse a la televisión o el cine, sino que puede y debe invadir todos los medios e incluso la realidad misma.

In a Maine coastal village toward the end of the 19th century, swaggering, carefree carnival barker Billy Bigelow captivates and marries naive millworker Julie Jordan. Billy loses his job just as he learns that Julie is pregnant, and – desperately intent upon providing a decent life for his family – he is coerced into being an accomplice to a robbery. Caught in the act and facing the certainty of prison, he takes his own life and is sent “up there.” Billy is allowed to return to earth for one day 15 years later, and he encounters the daughter he never knew. She is a lonely, friendless teenager, her father's reputation as a thief and bully having haunted her throughout her young life. How Billy instills a sense of hope and dignity in both the child and her mother is a dramatic testimony to the power of love. It's easy to understand why, of all the shows they created, Carousel was Rodgers and Hammerstein's personal favorite.

This book explores the Broadway legacy of choreographer Agnes de Mille, from the 1940s through the 1960s. Six musicals are discussed in depth - Oklahoma!, One Touch of Venus, Bloomer Girl, Carousel, Brigadoon, and Allegro. Oklahoma!, Carousel, and Brigadoon were de Mille's most influential and lucrative Broadway works. The other three shows exemplify aspects of her legacy that have not been fully examined, including the impact of her ideas on some of the composers with whom she worked; her ability to incorporate a previously conceived work into the context of a Broadway show; and her trailblazing foray into the role of choreographer/director. Each chapter emphasizes de Mille's unique contributions to the original productions. Several themes emerge in looking closely at de Mille's Broadway repertoire. Character development remained at the heart of her theatrical work work. She often took minor characters, represented with minimal or no dialogue, and fleshed out their stories. These stories added a layer of meaning that resulted in more complex productions. Sometimes, de Mille's stories were different from the stories her collaborators wanted to tell, which caused many conflicts. Because her unique ideas often got woven into the fabric of her musicals, de Mille saw her choreography as an authorship. She felt she should be given the same rights as the librettist and the composer. De Mille's work as an activist is an aspect of her legacy that has largely been overlooked. She contributed to revisions in dance copyright law and was a founding member of the Stage Directors and Choreographers Society, a theatrical union that protects the rights of directors and choreographers. Her contention that choreographers are authors who have their own stories to tell offers a new way of understanding the Broadway musical.
