Animal House (1978)

National Lampoon’s Animal House is an important movie. You can see its influence in the many raunchy and gross-out comedies that attempted to ride on its coattails after its release. Countless films have either imitated its style or attempted to one-up its hijinks. It’s unapologetically vulgar and crass, memorable and often hilarious. It’s also horribly dated - we’re talking Breakfast at Tiffany’s dated - which makes it hard to recommend unless you’re from a certain era, or watching it for academic reasons.

In 1962, Faber College’s Dean Vernon Wormer (John Vernon) is fed up with the Delta Tau Chi "Animal House" Fraternity. It isn’t hard to see why. Its members are nothing but hard-partying, womanizing delinquents with low grade point averages and a knack for disobedience - unlike the prestigious, snooty, elitist Omega Theta Pi house, who hate them just as much as the Dean does.

Animal House doesn't have much of a plot. For 109 minutes, we follow various members of the fraternity as they go wild. New pledges Larry Kroger (Tom Hulce) and Kent Dorfman (Stephen Furst), the legendary John "Bluto" Blutarsky, motorcyclist/mechanic Daniel Simpson "D-Day" Day (Bruce McGill), chapter president Robert Hoover (James Widdoes), ladies’ man Eric "Otter" Stratton (Tim Matheson), and the only one with a steady girlfriend, Donald "Boon" Schoenstein (Peter Riegert) all go on the kind of adventures that you can’t believe someone committed to film in 1978. It’s essentially a series of sketches, many of which you see once and never forget. That's not necessarily a bad thing. I just need to say “the horse” and you start to crack up.

While the film doesn’t contain the kind of rampant misogyny many of its imitators attempted to mine for comedy (such as Porky’s)… it’s still got a problematic attitude towards women. If it were just one scene of Bluto peeking through a window to see ladies changing, it might be ok. The college students we see are all parading in their underwear while having a pillow fight, which is so outlandish it's funny. The problem is how many moments of this nature we see. Animal House has a scene in which a character has to seriously consider why having sex with an unconscious woman is a bad idea. It’s one rape joke too many but then there's another not too far away. Yikes.

I can’t blame anyone who gets offended at the homophobic jokes - all I can say is that’s just the way things were back then - or the racist jokes - times were different but things have changed, I swear. Even if you overlook them, the picture’s general attitude just doesn’t sit well today. You might not like the snobs in Omega Theta Pi but at least they’re good students. Animal House is filled with cheaters who take nothing seriously and then complain when the administration holds them accountable. Maybe fraternities mean a different thing in the United States than they do in Canada, or they were a bigger deal back in the day but it's hard to figure out why you should like the hooligans from Animal House at the end of the day.

If you’re curious and undeterred by the dated humor, there are plenty of funny gags and several of them produce big laughs. I just don’t know who this movie is for anymore. You’d have a difficult time looking at your female friends in the face after watching this film with them. With your kids? They’d be appalled. Even among your buddies, I suspect you’d find a larger-than-expected number of them who’d go “Hey man, this isn’t cool”. I'm glad I saw Animal House. Now that I have, I understand why the film was as influential as it was but I doubt I'll feel the need to revisit it. This makes me unsure if I recommend it or not. I suppose I do, if you know what you're getting into, at least so you can "get it" too. (On Blu-ray, July 23, 2021)

"Found Guilty of Conversion of Funds," Kingston Whig-Standard. October 5, 1932. Page 5. --- Arthur W. Bradley, Gananoque, Given Six Months' Term ---- Gananoque, Oct. 5. - The case of Arthur W. Bradley, former local insurance man accused of conversion of funds, who was arrested in Kingston some time ago and brought to Gananoque for trial, was concluded before Magistrate Sampson here yesterday after a great many remands over a period of weeks, when the accused was found guilty and sentenced to six months in the Ontario Reformatory.

It is doubtful if a longer police court session has ever been held in Gananoque. Starting at 10.15 am, the trial continued until 7.30 p.m., with an hour's adjournment for lunch, before sentence was passed. Further court proceedings in the cases of Robert Bevens [pictured right] and Benjamin Bevens of Seeley's Bay, who were given sentences of three years and six months respectively, lengthened the total time required to dispose of yesterday's docket to 8.30 p.m., or nine and one quarter hours exclusive of the one hour lunch recess,

The first witness to be placed in the box in the Bradley case was Robert N. Levis, a local insurance agent who took over the business formerly operated by Bradley. Mr. Levis was in the box for nearly three hours, and during that time told of his dealings with Bradley before and after taking over the agency. The story brought out by Crown Attorney Atkinson in his examination was to the effect that in the autumn of 1931 he had entered into negotiations with the accused to purchase the Bradley Agencies. Bradley, he stated, he had his license. suspended some time previously, had gotten into debt, and was anxious to sell out. With his license suspended, the accused could not sell insurance unless he were employed on a salary basis, and could not act as agent.

Levis had requested Bradley to write the several companies he represented, and submit a list of the policies in force and his indebtedness to them. On September 26, 1931, he had entered with an agreement with the accused whereby Bradley's figures were agreed upon, Bradley had expressed his willingness to work for his living expenses during the winter. His duties were to teach Levis the business and to go out and sell, Levis further agreed to pay Bradley 50% of the commissions on the policies in force as the purchase price of the agency. However, as the accused had never produced the statement of the policies in force or a satisfactory declaration of his indebtedness, Levis had never paid him.

Dealt Direct With Companies Bradley had remained with Levis until the end of October, 1931, and prior to his leaving, Levis, on the ad- vice of executives of some of the companies he represented, had dealt direct with the companies instead of through Bradley. Witness stated that he did not know the business, and had made no attempt at collections until after accused had gone. He had approached Charles Kenney, whose evidence was taken last week, and while Kenney was able to produce a receipt for $8, signed by Bradley, Levis swore that he had received no part of the money. The same situation had been met in the cases of James Brennan of Leeds Township, who had paid Bradley $10; W. J. Nuttall, Gananoque, R.R. 1, who had paid $37.50; and Mrs. Gertrude Lippman, who had paid $13.00. It was alleged that Levis had paid these amounts to the insurance companies, and although the money had been received from the policyholders by Bradley, he (Levis) had received no part of it, although the agreement of Sept. 26 specified that all monies collected were to be turned over to Levis. During his association with the accused, witness had paid him $58.50 as an advance on salary.

Defense Counsel Douglas G. Peck in his cross-examination suggested that Levis had acquired an agency which had cost him $58.50 and that if his client presented witness with an ac- count Levis would owe Bradley money. Mr. Peck carefully went over each point of the story told by the witness, and the Crown suggested near the conclusion of the defense counsel's. cross-examination that the extent of the latitude which could be allowed had been reached and that the evidence being put before the court was not getting them anywhere.

Afternoon Session The court was adjourned at the conclusion of Mr. Peck's cross-examination until 2 p.m. to allow an hour for lunch, and the prosecution's last witness, Major Smith, eastern manager of the Wawanesa Insurance Company, Toronto, was put in the box when the court resumed.

Major Smith explained the position of his company in relations with the accused, and stated that it was glad to turn over the agency to Levis, particularly so since the services of Bradley would be retained. His company, he stated, recognized a moral responsibility to the man who had built up its business. In all fairness to Bradley, he had built up a very fair business, and on being checked up, it seemed to be a better than average agency. His company would not, he said, give Levis the agency unless he were willing to assume the liabilities which Bradley had incurred. Major Smith's examination by the Crown concluded the case for the prosecution. At this point Mr. Peck asked for a dismissal of the charges, a motion to which the magistrate did not accede,

Defence Evidence The defense then called W. El Bradley of Gananoque, a brother of the accused, who stated that he was very intimate with his brother's business during the three years it was conducted prior to last fall, and that he was bondsman for several of the companies represented by the Bradley Agencies. Witness stated that Levis had assured him that he would pay his brother $15 per week plus a car allowance, and cited a number of instances tending to show that the accused was employed by Levis.

In the cross-examination, the Crown Counsel secured the admission that if the witness thought the accused was in the employ of Levis, any monies collected should have been turned over to Levis as his property.

Another brother of the accused, William T. Bradley, gave evidence of his knowledge of the accused's relations with Levis which added little to the information which had already been brought out.

Accused Testifies The defense then put the accused in the box, who told of a connection with a firm of insurance brokers in Toronto who paid him a salary, thus enabling him to transact insurance business after the cancellation of his license. He stated that under the new arrangement, when Levis took over the Bradley Agencies and changed the name to the Gananoque Agencies, he was to be retained in the new firm as field representative under Mr. Levis, and that he was to work on a salary of $15 per week and car allowance. Contrary to the evidence given by Levis, Mr. Bradley stated that all the companies in which the agency was interested had been asked for a statement of their account to date at the time Levis had taken the business over, and that the replies had been turned over to Levis on receipt.

After the summing up by the defense and the Crown, the magistrate reviewed the evidence. He stated that there were certain monies paid on four policies as premiums, and that those monies were due the insurance companies either by Bradley or Levis, depending on the relationship between the two. Levis had paid for four premiums, for which Bradley had received the money and used it for another purpose. He would have to register a conviction.

The sentence was six months on each of the four counts in the Ontario Reformatory, the sentences to run concurrently.

Other Cases Following the disposition of the Bradley case, which ended at 7.30 p.m., the court moved to the magistrate's office to allow the city fathers the use of the council chamber for their regular meeting. The remaining cases were charges of theft against Robert and Benjamin Bevens of Seeley's Bay.

Robert Bevens, aged 26, faced two charges of theft. The first, to which he pleaded guilty, was of stealing a gold watch and flash light from the residence of William A. Ferguson of the Township of Lansdowne. The second count was of stealing an overcoat, food and tie pin from the residence of Andrew Brown of Marble Rock. He pleaded not guilty.

His brother, Benjamin Bevens, also faced two charges of theft. He plead. ed guilty to the first, that he stole a mouth organ and food from the home of William A. Ferguson. He pleaded not guilty to the theft of a quantity of food from the home of Andrew Brown.

The first witness to be placed in the box was Andrew Brown of Marble Rock, who told how his house was entered on August 7th and everything turned topsy-turvy. Mr. Brown identified a smock as his own by the sewing at the collar where the chain for hanging the coat on a hook had come off and been repaired. William Ferguson of Sand Bay also identified the coat and stated that Robert Bevens, who had worked for him for a short time in August, had brought the garment with him when he came.

Robert Bevens took the stand in his own behalf, and swore that he had bought the coat from Thomas A. Gray of Seeley's Bay on or about June 11th. Asked how he could identify it, he replied that it had been sewn at the collar where one end of the small chain used for hanging it up had come away. The Crown asked if he knew what kind of thread was used and Bevens replied "white." "Well, this is brown," stated the Crown.

In view of previous convictions, Robert was sentenced to three years in Kingston Penitentiary for stealing the gold watch and flash light, and six months for stealing the smock, or overcoat. The sentences will run concurrently. Benjamin, since this is his first appearance, will do six months for purloining the mouth organ and food.

Following the trial the three men who had been sentenced were taken to Brockville by Provincial Constable Noble, and Provincial Constable Bartlett of Napanee is expected to take the Bevens boys to Napanee today to answer charges of stealing three watches from a farm near Odessa.

[Bevans was also known as Berins. He was single, 26, from Brier Hill, and was trained as a blacksmith. He likely learned it during his last term at Kingston Penitentiary as inmate #547. He had also escaped in 1927 from the Mimico Brick plant, an annex of the Ontario Reformatory, which is what got him sent to the pen. This time, he was convict #2796 and worked in the blacksmith shop. He took part in the 1932 riot at Kingston Penitentiary, and though he told the investigators he had no complaints, he did demand that cigarette papers and newspapers be introduced, and that no punishment can down on the ringleaders except after a 'fair trail' by the warden. He continued to work in the blacksmith shop and took part in some protests there, and was released March 1935.]

En plus de l'amour du public, Rossum a reçu beaucoup de critiques dans son discours

En raison de l'abondance de scènes explicites, la star a été accusée d'apparaître trop souvent dans le cadre en maillot de bain ou sans vêtements du tout.  Emmy réagit calmement aux critiques en colère, car elle considère qu'il est important de révéler tous les aspects de la vie du personnage, y compris les plus intimes.

 Entre le tournage de Shameless, la star a également réussi à travailler sur d'autres projets.  En 2013, elle est apparue dans le drame Beautiful Creatures, où elle a joué la méchante sorcière Ridley.  Le rôle était un défi pour elle, car auparavant, Rossum devait jouer des héroïnes principalement positives.  Jeremy Irons, qui est connu pour son imprévisibilité, a fait une impression particulière sur l'artiste.

 Cela a été suivi par la sortie du film "Comet", dans lequel la star a non seulement joué, mais était également responsable de la sélection des acteurs.  L'intrigue tourne autour d'un couple dont la romance a éclaté après une rencontre fortuite.  Emmy a décrit le projet comme un anti-romcom qui touche aux problèmes relationnels.

 En 2018, la comédie Stupid and Senseless Gesture a été diffusée, basée sur la biographie du fondateur du magazine National Lampoon, Douglas Kenney, qui a influencé la culture américaine dans les années 70.  L'actrice a joué Katherine Walker, l'élue du protagoniste.

A Futile and Stupid Gesture 2: Bucking the Trend Line

Less a sequel than a second version of A Futile and Stupid Gesture, this one instead focuses on William F. Buckley, Jr.'s time at Yale, through the founding of the National Review, up until the SEC crackdown on several of his businesses in the late 1970s and early 1980s. And the cast is the exact same cast from the first movie, with everyone taking on different roles, though Will Forte again portrays the writer at the center of the story, in this case Buckley rather than Kenney.
