DC Legacy
The basic premise of this is that the time has come for older heroes to step down and the next generation take their place. Clark Kent is now the editor and owner of the Daily Planet and vows to lead them into the future while keeping their dedication to the truth. Diana Prince is now Queen of the Amazons and has relinquished her title as Wonder Woman though she still joins the Justice Society when needed. Bruce Wayne has become mayor of Gotham City and intends to use the power of the office to fight crime at the root. However the intensified spotlight means he must give up the cowl. Others such as Oliver Queen have stepped down from active duty to become teachers to the next generation, passing down their skills and knowledge.

100+ Films of 1952
Film number 106: For Men Only 
Release date: July 11th, 1952 
Studio: Lippert Pictures 
Genre: crime drama, social issue
Director: Paul Henreid 
Producer: Paul Henreid, Edward Nassour 
Actors: Paul Henreid, Margaret Field, Kathleen Hughes,  
Plot Summary: A beloved college professor is horrified when one of his favorite students dies during a fraternity hazing. He vows to get justice for the young man and outlaw hazing on the campus. Powerful forces are just as determined to sweep everything under the rug, however. 
My Rating (out of five stars): **¾  
This is kind of a B grade “message film” bringing attention to a contemporary social issue. In this case, the message is that college hazing is dangerous and should be outlawed. Like a lot of message films, it suffers from some heavy-handedness that gets in the way of the actual story. This was also apparently the first film Paul Henreid directed, and it’s unfortunately not hard to guess that it wasn’t directed by a master. It’s not bad, but... I did write the word “pedestrian” in my notes when it came to the actual style.
The Good:
The message was undoubtedly a worthy cause- back then about a dozen people every year were dying during hazing events. Obviously hazing still exists today, but clearly not to the degree that it used to. 
Paul Henreid as Professor Dr. Brice. He definitely has heaps of charisma and sex appeal, and he acts the part well of a quietly heroic college professor who makes the hearts of females flutter. 
The actor who plays Tod, the victim of extreme hazing. I was surprised to learn he didn’t act in many films, because I found him very appealing. He had a sweet charm about him, and his acting, although not outstanding, was certainly up to par. 
The actors in the supporting roles were quite good for a low budget film. This might be because Henreid, an actor himself, directed it. 
The story was interesting and easy to become invested in. 
The Bad: 
The title! It evidently got changed for the later part of its release, because it was scaring women away. They changed it to Time for Men Only, which is only sliiiightly better! It just makes the film sound trashy and salacious, and its connection to the plot is tenuous at best. The poster is unfortunately the same. What the hell does "RIPPED!... from the heart of a woman's hate!" have to do with this movie?!
Some of the writing could get cringy or preachy. An example: the final week of hazing was called “Hell week,” and when Henreid gives a big speech against it he says, “Let’s turn Hell Week into Help Week.” smh 
The style was a bit plain at times. The shots were generally generic mediums and close-ups with minimal camera movement. It wasn’t bad, as I said earlier, but it was more serviceable than creative. This is just a B film, though, so... 
There was a long section of scrolling words at the beginning of the film giving us an information dump about hazing, some statistics, and why it’s so dangerous. It went on forever- I felt like I was getting hit over the head before the film even started. 
There was a tendency to “tell” rather than “show," as the example above illustrates.
Animal abuse! Thankfully this wasn’t directly shown on camera, but vividly implying the death of a little dog?! It was horrifying! Thankfully I knew it was coming, or I might have totally lost it. 
There were some distractingly comedically bad punches thrown throughout. I did love a scene where Henreid basically bitch slapped a baddie, though! 
The way one particular female student kept overtly propositioning the married Dr. Brice. And I mean overt. It was more than gross. 
Was Dr. Brice maybe a little too perfect?

The Beast of Hollow Mountain (Edward Nassour & Ismael Rodríguez, 1956)
It’s a dinosaur. The only thing standing in the way of a cattle man from north of the border from having free exploitative rein on this land. Hard not to root for the dinosaur. Though why they waited over an hour for it to appear is anyone’s guess. This looked far better than it had any right to.

The cult comedy Mystery Science Theater 3000 (aka MST3K) returned to TV this weekend via Netflix. For anyone unfamiliar with the series, the show revolves around an astronaut (Jonah Ray) trapped on a satellite by a mad scientist (Felicia Day) and her idiot assistant (Patton Oswalt) and forced to watch B-movies with two robots named Tom and Crow. The new season of Mystery Science Theater 3000 features several classic dinosaur/kaiju movies including REPTILICUS (1961, US Ver. Dir. Sidney W. Pink), THE BEAST FROM HOLLOW MOUNTAIN (1956, Dir. Edward Nassour), THE LAND THAT TIME FORGOT (1975, Dir. Kevin Connor), YONGARY: MONSTER OF THE DEEP (1967, Dir. Kim Ki-duk) and AT THE EARTH’S CORE (1976, Dir. Kevin Connor). I’m a big fan of 1975′s THE LAND THAT TIME FORGOT, which in my opinion always enhances good Mystery Science Theater 3000, and so I found Jonah and the bot’s riffs on the film particularly amusing.

Curators of the Mamie and Ellis Nassour Arts and Entertainment Collection at the University of Mississippi have created a unique archive to honor the late actress Marian Seldes and the Actors Fund of America, the latter for its generous donations of theatrical memorabilia.
The Marian Seldes/Actors Fund Archive, housed in the J.D. Williams Library’s Department of Archive and Special Collections, includes signed Broadway posters and other materials.
To mark its establishment, representatives of the Actors Fund donated a framed poster signed by the original cast of Broadway’s longest-running musical, “The Phantom of the Opera.” Representatives of the fund also gave a commemorative Actors Fund 125th anniversary ornament to Chancellor Jeffrey Vitter and his wife, Sharon, for use at Carrier House, the UM chancellor’s residence.
“At the University of Mississippi, our arts and cultural programs are among the best, and one of our most passionate supporters is alumnus Ellis Nassour,” Vitter said. “We are extremely grateful to Ellis and to the Actors Fund for their gifts to Ole Miss.
“These donations enhance our Department of Archives and Special Collections and are a great resource for our students, faculty and staff.”
In celebration of the gift, the Department of Theatre Arts staged a reading with Ole Miss students John Brahan, a senior acting major from Hattiesburg and Ole Miss Hall of Fame Inductee, and Rachel Staton, a senior musical theatre major from Atlanta who won an Outstanding Performance Award from the Kennedy Center’s American College Theatre Festival, performing excerpts from Tennessee Williams and Edward Albee plays in which Seldes starred. The performance was directed by Rory Ledbetter, associate professor of theatre arts.
Co-founded in 1882 by classical actor Edwin Booth, the Actors Fund of America is a nonprofit human services organization that serves professionals in theater, film, television, music, opera and dance through programs that address their unique and essential needs. Joseph Benincasa is president and CEO of The Actors Fund, with Tony-Award-winning actor Brian Stokes Mitchell as board chair. With offices in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago, it directly serves more than 8,000 entertainment and performing arts professionals, and approximately 300,000 more through web resource programs.
“We were happy to support this archive and the memory of Ms. Seldes, who was an ardent supporter of The Actors Fund,” Benincasa said.
The Actors Fund gifts, which began in 2015, include framed and signed Broadway posters from noteworthy performances and annual Actors Fund all-star fundraising galas.
Ellis Nassour, a Vicksburg native and member of the Ole Miss Class of 1964, suggested that the archive be named for Seldes, his longtime friend.
“Marian was among the most admired and hardest-working actors on any stage,” Nassour said. “Her 60-year career covered theater, television, film and radio. Her conversational abilities are still legendary. She was indefatigable until the very end.”
Seldes was honored with Tony and Drama Desk awards, as well as numerous nominations. She was inducted into the American Theater Hall of Fame in 1995 and presented a Tony Award for Lifetime Achievement in 2010. She died in 2014.
The Mamie and Ellis Nassour Arts and Entertainment Collection, dedicated in 2004, was donated by Ellis Nassour in honor of his parents.
The collection includes posters, bound film and theater scripts, photos, caricatures, circus posters, show souvenir books and theatrical memorabilia. It also includes an impressive assortment of playbills, many of which are autographed, from performances worldwide.
A third of the collection is designated for exhibition display, and another third is archived for research. The most important third, Nassour said, is a growing collection of DVDs of film, opera and dance and CDs, ranging from country and pop to Broadway, classical and opera, that is available for circulation.
“We are extremely grateful to both Mr. Nassour and the Actor’s Fund of America,” said Jennifer Ford, the library’s head of special collections. “Donations such as these help to ensure the outstanding nature of the unique archival collections at the University of Mississippi.”
The collection is an amazing resource, said Ed Meek, an Ole Miss classmate of Nassour, former UM assistant vice chancellor and founder of the Meek School of Journalism and New Media.
“When he was director of social affairs for the Associated Student Body in the ’60s, the innovations he brought to revamping campus entertainment were impressive,” Meek said. “This is another first for the university that could only be made possible by an alumnus who loves Ole Miss.”
Nassour points out that he had help from ASB presidents Douglas Abraham, Dick Wilson and Tom Cleveland, volunteers on various committees and the late Tom Hines, dean emeritus of students.
Early in his life, Nassour developed an interest in the performing arts. At UM, he was a contributor to The Daily Mississippian, where his first interview was Bob Hope, who was performing on campus.
Nassour began collecting materials related to the entertainment industry while at The New York Times, where, under the tutelage of Mississippian Turner Catledge – at the time the newspaper’s managing editor – he climbed the ranks.
He later became director of artist relations of MCA Music/Universal Pictures, where he worked with Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber on their landmark studio album “Jesus Christ Superstar,” and artists Elton John, Neil Diamond, The Who, Brenda Lee, Clint Eastwood, Dean Martin, Shirley MacLaine, Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn.
Nassour has written two biographies of Patsy Cline: the first, “Patsy Cline, An Intimate Portrait,” in 1981 and “Honky Tonk Angel: The Intimate Story of Patsy Cline,” in 1993. The entire spoken portion of the revue “Always, Patsy Cline” is taken from four pages of Nassour’s biography.
