A museum in Los Angeles, California is launching a new exhibit to honor the cinematic contributions of German-speaking emigres to Hollywood in the 1930s and 1940s. Starting on October 23, the Skirball Cultural Center will showcase the exhibit, "Light and Noir: Exiles and Emigres in Hollywood, 1933-1950."
The exhibition focuses on the mostly Jewish emigres to the United States, who were fleeing the Nazi regime in Germany, and how they made a profound impact on American cinema.
"Light and Noir: Exiles and Emigres in Hollywood, 1933 to 1950 tells the story of this unique generation of immigrants to the country from German-speaking lands, who for the most part, were fleeing from the tyranny of the Nazi regime, many of whom were Jews, and how they came and not only enriched Hollywood with their talent, but in certain genres really revolutionized cinematic art, and had a broad impact not only on cinema, but on America democracy," explained Skirball's museum director, Robert Kirschner.
The museum's curator, Doris Berger, also explained that many classic films, such as "Casablanca," can be seen in a new light when taking into account the perspective of the emigre directors who helmed them.
"Casablanca is not just a romantic drama, but an exile film as well, in that the cast and crew were mostly emigres themselves, and that Rick's Cafe in the movie "Casablanca" is a transitory space where people come and go, where people need to go away but can't. So it's about the powers and forces that are negotiated within that place, and that are a part of the movie and allow us to see the movie in a different light," Berger told Reuters.
The exhibit features movie posters, photographs and other memorabilia connected with the films of numerous emigre filmmakers such as Fritz Lang, Ernst Lubitsch, Billy Wilder and Fred Zinnemann. Many of the items on display depict the impact of emigre directors on the film noir genre, as well as their many contributions to comedy as well.
The exhibit will be open to the public from October 23, 2014 through March 1, 2015.
