A Submarine Pirate (1915) / Willful Ambrose (1915) / Bombs! (1916) / The Feathered Nest (1916) / Her Torpedoed Love (1917) / Hearts and Flowers (1919) / Down on the Farm (1920)

From her Keystone debut in 1915 to her last First National comedy in 1922, Fazenda was one of Sennett's top comedy stars—appearing in nearly 60 Sennett shorts and features during that time.

Fazenda became familiar audiences as the hayseed girl who was forever falling prey to the shifty city slicker or evil mortgage holder, with her spit curl, ribbon-tied pigtails and calico dress. Just as often, she was the hard-working blue-collar girl who would leave her dreary job as a waitress or maid to collect a healthy inheritance—pursued by the usual assortment of Sennett fortune hunters. With hazel eyes and light brown hair, Fazenda could just as easily put on a blonde wig and play attractive, vampish roles.

Born in Lafayette, Indiana, the daughter of a Mexican-born grocer and American-born mother, Fazenda's family moved to LA by 1900—where she attended Los Angeles High School and St. Mary's Convent. She debuted in dramatic stock with Miss Del Valle in LA and later appeared with Virginia Brissac. Louise got her start in films at Universal in 1912 under the direction of Wilfred Lucas, but by 1913 was appearing alongside Max Asher, Harry McCoy, Bobby Vernon, Gale Henry, Lee Morris, Billy Franey, Heinie Conklin and the other featured players in Universal's Joker Comedies.

When her Sennett contract ended in Sep 1920, Fazenda joined Special Pictures Corp. briefly in late 1920; then she appeared in a trio of California Producers Corp.'s Punch Comedies (1921) co-starring Chester Conklin and John Henry Jr. That came before a brief return to Sennett for a couple of appearances during 1921-22. Fazenda starred in some of Jack White's Mermaid Comedies (1923-24) before settling into roles in features. With the coming of sound, Louise returned to shorts for Christie (1929) and Darmour (1930). She continued with feature support in films. Fazenda found a second home at Warner Brothers, becoming a familiar character face in musicals.

On March 7, 1919, Fazenda married Sennett director Noel M. Smith, to whom she'd been engaged since 1917; they separated on August 14, 1923, and divorced on August 1, 1926. On November 24, 1927 she married Warner Bros. publicity director Hal B. Wallis, soon to became Warners' studio manager and then a long-time film producer. Fazenda retired from the screen in 1939, and remained married to Wallis until her death at 66 in Beverly Hills of a cerebral hemorrhage, leaving Wallis and son Brent. She is interred at Inglewood Park Cemetery, Inglewood, California.

Today's compilation:

Best of Fourth and Broadway Volume One  - Boogie On Broadway 1987 Freestyle / Disco / R&B / Plunderphonics

Oh, *hell* yes, folks. This is one of those albums that's really illustrative of what made so much of the 80s so fuckin' dope 😤. R&B, freestyle, disco, synthpop, hip hop, post-disco, electro, jazz, funk, soul, etc., were all just freely converging and bouncing off one another like pillow-wrapped bumper cars back then and it ended up yielding such a sweet collective tapestry of street music, so much of which seems to have been pretty forgotten since. Really nothing like it.

And this comp, like so many of these similarly eclectic and dancy 80s-types of comps, is one that really feels like riding your Cutlass Supreme around the city on a bustling and sunny mid-afternoon in the year of 1987. If the idea of that image instills in you a serious case of warm and fuzzies, even if you weren't around for the 80s, then I think you're gonna love what this comp had to offer, because it is so beautifully 80s-ephemeral 😍.

Now, if Island Records subsidiary 4th & Broadway is known for anything, it's for being the label that was home to rap legends Eric B. & Rakim, and for also releasing the revolutionary dance tune that was M/A/R/R/S' "Pump Up the Volume," which happened to sample its title lyric from a song that appears on this album too: Eric B. & Rakim's own "I Know You Got Soul." And I may have reached a premature conclusion regarding this 4th & Broadway sampler series almost a year ago when I posted about its lackluster second volume, because this first installment is significantly better, and it has a bunch of extended and full-length versions of songs on it too 👍.

Though a bit hard to pick a favorite among these, I think it's gotta be "Expansions '86" by Chris Paul, who is obviously not to be confused with the future hall of fame point guard by the same name. Paul himself has never released an album, but this Brit's debut Lonnie Liston Smith cover single that served as his sole release on 4th & Broadway is quite a lovely piece of post-disco synth funk that really hits another level just before the halfway point, when an unexpected infusion of some lively sax improv suddenly arrives. Those days when the sax played so much more of an integral role in the whole pop music landscape writ large were pretty terrific, and this song makes for a prime example.

Only negative thing I have to say about this release is that I don't think that much of that whole plunderphonics / sound collage era of the 80s has aged all that well. Those tunes whose main thing was just scattering sampled lines from various bits of mass media on top of a beat may have been cool conceptually at some point, but unless you're really slicing and dicing those samples up and creating your own rhythms and melodies out of them, I don't think they're all that interesting. And we've got two of those types of tunes here from a pair of otherwise highly respected acts in Steinski and Tackhead.

Other than those though, this album feels like such an authentically good trip back to a time in which so much of this music has since turned obscure. 4th & Broadway were kind of a big label too, but unless you were really in the thick of all this ephemera when it was out, I kinda doubt that you'd be familiar with the bulk of the artists that appear on this superb release. Some of you might think a lot of this stuff's corny, but I think it's fantastic 🤩.

Highlights:

Millie Scott - "E'vry Little Bit" Noel - "Silent Morning" Loose Joints - "Tell You" Chris Paul - "Expansions '86" Eric B. & Rakim - "I Know You Got Soul" Wanda & The Way It Is - "We Got the Feeling"

The Reader Sources

Bordwell, D., Thompson, K. and Smith, J. (2016) Film art: an introduction. Eleventh; McGraw-Hill international; New York, NY: McGraw-Hill Education.

This text deconstructs various theories behind filmmaking, including the effect of narratology and successful film techniques. Methods examined are the significance of film space using mise-en-scene, the engagement of dramatic shot types, and the clarity of montage sequences. Bordwell and Thompson specifically delve into how modern media derived from Hollywood films by analysing the chronology of film events and its popularised classical narrative. Regarding narrative, the authors explain how it provides clarity in the life of its audience and as result, how such audience are gravitated towards chronological narrative eager for the prospect of life-lessons. That said, the authors do also investigate how other forms of narrative can create more complex plots in film, such as the idea of parallel narrative, which provides even more engagement with how the audience could perceive a life-like situation.

Cook, P. and Bernink, M. (1999) The cinema book. 2nd edn. London: British Film Institute.

In this text, Pam Cook explores the discussions involved within narratology, such as how Tzvetan Todorov's narrative theory helped establish a precedent for future formula of films. From this, Cook explained how narrative cinema and its cinematic codes settled in the development of film, with the help of 'cultural ascendancy'; the Hollywood pictures.

With this, Cook further examined concepts of film theory that were stemmed from this change. One notable example is Noel Burch's (1973) 'insitutional mode of representation' (IMR), the perceived dominant mode of film construction seen in virtually every film produced in our time.

Propp, V., Martin, A.Y., Martin, R.P. and Corporation, E. (1984) Theory and History of Folklore. N - New; 1; Edited by A. Liberman. Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press.

Translated by Ariadna Y. Martin, Richard P. Martin and edited by Anatoly Liberman, this volume is the last of the original 5 volumes from the text 'Theory and History of literature'. The 5th volume covers the work of Vladimir Propp, including his findings and formulas behind his famous narrative theories, most notably his 31 functions theory. His studies involve close examinations into Russian folklore, which he found similar patterns of the folktale hero's journey throughout many established discourses within the plot. Thus, he was able to form the 31 'narratemes' often associated in folklore context.

Propp, V., Scott, L. and Wagner, L.A. (1968) Morphology of the Folktale. 2nd edn. Austin: University of Texas Press.

This text further explored in depth of the original papers by Vladimir Propp. Throughout his research into Russian narrative, he examines the 'organisation' of Russian folkloristic text and understood that its structure was mainly 'linear', thus explaining why the narratives were presented in a chronological order of events. He discovered that this type of narrative existed throughout centuries of storytelling, which Propp named this form of narrative as 'syntagmatic' structural analysis, based on the term 'syntax' of language from Greimas' rule of narrative grammar (cf Greimas, 1966a : 404). As a text based off of the original source, alternative theories were introduced to counter the lack of 'epistemological value' within Propp's works, such as the argument of structuralism and formulism provided by philosopher Claude Levi-Strauss. Strauss opposed to Vlad's 'syntagmatic' structural analysis, and argued the existence of paradigmatic theory.

Tringham, N.R. (2014) Science Fiction Video Games. 1st edn. Oakville: CRC Press LLC.

Within the topic of narratology, Neal Roger Tringham took a unique approach to analysing the structure of narrative through the study of game narrative. Tringham makes readers aware of the conflict between narratology and ludology in regards to the significance of stories in games, which he acknowledges the past of game stemming from elements of dualism and strategy. His text explores the evolution of narrative in media and how it has branched into different materials aside from traditional folklores and text - with the focus concerning games. Considering how the objective in recent games has been shifted by narrative, the debate between narratology and ludology involves a dilemma of if both concepts could exist together or rather intervene with each other; Tringham answers this with the existence of 'interactive' videogames.

Bronner, S.J. (ed.) (2007) ‘On Game Morphology: A Study of the Structure of Non-Verbal Folklore’, in. Utah State University Press (Meaning of Folklore), pp. 154-163.

Along with Tringham's research into gaming and narrative, Simon J. Bronner further establishes the distinction between the structure in 'types of folklore expression' and 'children's games'. The foundations of ludology is assessed in how children's games are operated; competitive games like first-shooter games are limited to a certain system, with little rules that simplify the essential nature of such games. Bronner identifies a solution to how narrative and game can become compatible through the use of 'motifemes', which introduces the 'story' unit comparable to folktale structure into games while maintaining the competitive aims behind the medium. In short, Bronner discovered how closely game and narrative resembled one-another, describing games possessing the structure of a "two-dimensional folktale" (pg. 156).

Bronner, S.J. (ed.) (2007) ‘On Game Morphology: A Study of the Structure of Non-Verbal Folklore’. Utah State University Press (Meaning of Folklore), p. 154.

This intriguing piece of work consists of Alan Dundes' investigation into game structure, and how it correlates to narrative. Dundes examined the similarities between narrative and gaming, by observing relationship between two different sides that pan out within a game, whilst comparing it to two opposing archetypes within narrative structure. He explores the coexistence of narrative 'perspective' within games, as he states that due to the immediacy and practicality of games, especially competitive games, two opposite perspectives are likely to occur, though the key fact is that they both reflect one main 'plot'; this is akin to if folktales were constructed with the involvement of both a hero's and villain's journey as opposed to usually one one execution of story through the hero. Thus, it can be found that both games and narrative involve one main plot regardless of roles, and showed how game and narrative could be compatible together, considering the criticism of games involving narrative.

Tringham, N.R. (2014) Science Fiction Video Games. 1;1st; edn. Oakville: CRC Press LLC.

Tringham's paper carefully considers the relationship between narrative and game, evaluating both criticism and support for the idea of both forms as combined. He delves into the dispute regarding interactive games and claims how such a difficult execution of a product would be impossible, due to the irony of the title; despite the players 'interacting' with a game by manipulating choices to change its ending, these 'endings' are not necessarily caused by the players, has they have already been planned and implemented in the coding of the product, by the developers themselves. Thus, it would prove difficult to mix the improvisation of outcomes that games prove, with a structure that is already pre-determined by narrative. However, Tringham acknowledges that while narrative structure may not be possible in gaming, the illusion of narrative elements within games may allow the prospect of a truly 'interactive game' become possible.

Cristofaro, M. (2020) “I feel and think, therefore I am”: An Affect-Cognitive Theory of management decisions’, European management journal, 38 (2), pp. 344–355.

In the aspect of affect in media, Cristofaro's work highlighting 'cognitive-affective' theory would be plausible in describing why people think and react erratically within a rushed environment, or towards a difficult subject. Cognitive-affective theory describes the mind having two systems that handle a variety of information and manage two types of reactions; 'system 1' consists of involuntary, 'preconscious' thought process that shows more emotion and less experience, as opposed to 'system 2' that operates more logically and executes one's rationality. In terms of their relationship, 'system 2' acts as a 'filter' for 'system 1', which is easier for the dynamic to occur when someone is placed in a situation that they learned from beforehand. Theories like this could explain why players who engage in games, such as horror games, end up 'desensitised' to its elements and are less emotional in making decisions in such games.

Mayher, J. (2016) Understanding Gender & Sexuality In Popular Culture. Indiana University Bloomington: Cognella.

Within this edited book features an entire group of volumes covering many interesting perspectives within society. Male gaze theorist Laura Mulvey explains the social and psychological origins for the often sexual depiction of women in film. Mulvey explains that in the eyes of male spectators, women are the "bearers of meaning", while men are "makers of meaning"; women bear the image of desire that men long for unconsciously, who make this vision come to life on screen. This describes the oppressive relationship emerged from patriarchal culture, with women ending up taking the passive role of 'bearing' meaning in film. Using Sigmund Frued's psychosexual research, Mulvey also elaborates that women's objectified representation corresponds to the sexual attraction of gazing at an object, known as scopophilia - this corresponds to the male gaze.

David dobrik x ftm (female to male transgender) reader

Plot: David has a thing with a guy he really likes and wants to know why he ghosted him

David POV

I thought me and y/n were actually going pretty well maybe I was playing myself but I was really starting to fall for him even though we didn’t have labels on anything the feelings were there

I’m sitting on the couch in my living room trying to edit the vlog but he keeps just popping up in my head I picked up my phone and click on y/n context and typed “hey i really just wanna know what happened I thought it was going okay” I go over it about 20 times before my finger hits the send button

I look over my shoulder when I heard Natalie’s door creep open she walk over to the couch and sits down next to me “how’s the editing going” she asked I shrug my shoulders has a response she looked at me puzzled “what’s wrong” she asked “it’s nothing” I replied quickly as I look back at my computer trying to focus on the computer hoping she’d just take that and not ask anymore questions “yeah right you think you’re getting away with that Dave I’m your best friend” she said as she grabbed my laptop and sat it on the opposite side of her “fine” i reply with a sigh

“It’s just y/n I thought we were good I was really starting to like him and he ghosted me” I explain “if you really like him then try to figure out what happened and if that doesn’t work then you sometimes just have to let it go know matter how hard it is” she explained as she reached over and gave me a small hug “thank you” I mumble in her shoulder

It’s about an hour later and I’m still sitting in the same spot on the couch but instead I’m watching some dumb Netflix original sad ass movie

My phone buzzes and I jump at the vibration I pull it out really hoping it will be y/n it was the text message says “I promise it’s nothing you did it’s me I wanted to tell you why along time ago but i just never found the right time then we got so close it scared me that you’d leave because if you did I wouldn’t blame you” I stare at it for a minute confused as a million different possibilities run through my head what is he ‘married’ ‘kids’ ‘serial killer’ okay that last one is a little far fetched but still I’m panicking

I fix myself lightly sitting up a bit more on the couch as I grip my phone tightly and I slowly wipe my now sweaty palms on my jeans

I think slightly about what to say as my mind races I finally start to type “do you think maybe you could come over to talk” I look over the message a few times before hitting send and throwing my phone down beside me I rub my head in my hands and let out a sigh the phone quickly buzzed and I grab it i brought the phone up in front of my face to look at it. It ends up being a link I make a puzzled look at it I unlock my phone not hesitating to click the link my eyes glaze over it as I read it

It says ftm transgender as the headline and it went on to explain what it is I immediately feel a worriness build up in my stomach and my heart races I didn’t know how to respond I didn’t know what to think I understand what it meant i just didn’t know what that meant for us or how I exactly feel right this second as i kept reading the feelings got more intense I wasn’t judging I just didn’t expect this all I really knew in that second is that I cared about y/n and this didn’t change that I lock my phone throwing it aside I needed a second to process it before I act on anything

I put my head in my hands taking a deep breath I knew I still wanted him this didn’t change anything but I still couldn’t bring myself to text him I move the blanket off me to left side of me I stand up and drag my feet to the only place I knew where to go in this situation natalie

I lightly knock on her bedroom door “Nat” I whisper “come in” she yells slightly I drag my feet to her bed and lay down softly beside her as she sitting up on her laptop on the other side of me “what’s wrong” she asked softly was it that obvious I thought to myself I pull my phone out my jeans pocket and toss it slightly into her lap she picks it up looking at it and she starts to read the article that was left open the more she reads the more she understands “did he send you this” she asks looking down at me I nod slightly “and how do you feel” she asked softly “ I don’t know to be honest all I know is it doesn’t change how I feel about him” I reply sighing rubbing my face in my hands once again I’m stressed “I just don’t know what this means” I add “why does it have to change anything she asks “huh” I reply not really understanding the question “I just mean if you really like him and you wanna be with him why does this change anything” she explains“I don’t know I guess it doesn’t I don’t know I’m just surprised need time to process” I reply as I play with my finger in anxiousness “I mean of course take your time take your time to process but if this and he is what you really want this it shouldn’t change anything” she says softly

Her words really hit me like a truck I mean she was right it shouldn’t matter I know how I feel and I know I want him “thank you” I whisper I give her a slight awkward hug from the side of me laying down and her sitting up “yeah of course you’ll figure it out don’t stress so much” she says with a smile and I smile back

It was now 3 hours later and I was back on the couch watching my sad ass Netflix original it was now 11:00pm and I couldn’t really hold off anymore I pick up my phone and text him back “sorry it took so long to reply I’ll explain but will you still come over” I sigh to myself quickly hitting send and throwing my phone aside

It was a half hour ago now that I sent that message I keep checking every 5 second nothing he probably thought I was an asshole because I took so long to reply I think I fucked up fuck just has I was beating myself up about it I hear on knock on the door jesus christ did Natalie order pizza again I pick myself up off the couch dragging my feet to the front door I open it up I stop dead in my tracks as I look up and see him it’s y/n I lock eyes with him feeling my heart beating faster “hi” I smile “come in” I add he steps inside

“I’m sorry” he starts I should’ve told you I just panic when I realized how much I was gaining feelings for you but I got scared” he adds finding my eyes trying to read my face

I reach out for his hand hoping he’ll let me take it and he hesitates but it does

“I understand” I reply “I’m sorry I took so long to reply I just needed a minute to process but it doesn’t change how I feel about you at all I just got you know nervous I don’t know much about it but I’m willing to learn if you’ll let me” he smiled at me and lend in I lean in with him and connect are lips together everytime I kissed him it felt like the world stops and we were the only two people in the world

“I understand you need time to process completely you don’t ever need to be sorry I just appreciate you understanding and not leaving it means a lot to me” he says softly after he we pull away from kissing

I smile at him I grab his hand once again and led him to the couch I sit down and he sits down next to me snuggling his head into my neck as I pull the blanket over us

It’s been an hour since we been snuggling on the couch together after playing fighting about what movie we were gotta watch and him making fun of me watching the sad ass Netflix original we we just laying together holding each other enjoying each other company “y/n” I interrupt the silent “ he looks up at me “yeah Dave” he replied “will you be my boyfriend” I ask nervously he smile at me he leaned up and kissed my lips “of course I will” he smile

This sucks anyway here the tags of the people who wanted to read it @enthusiasmisdepressing @toxicdobrik @river-chase

Also sorry for the long ass wait I’ve been dealing with a lot of shit and trying to write just got really hard for a bit but here it is

Doctor Who Review - The Girl In The Fireplace

Oh look it’s another Moffat script, but this time it’s not so great. I’m still not sure why everybody loves this one, because I just find it to be a fairly basic timey-wimey script, with several elements that I don’t really like added in for good measure.

Mickey is back in the second of the three stories where he is the companion, and he sort of takes a back seat here. Him and Rose aren’t actually in it that much, which is good because it means less Rose, but bad because it means we don’t really get a sense of how Mickey fits in as part of the TARDIS dynamic (apart from describing himself as “The Tin Dog” in School Reunion. Instead, the episode focuses on the Doctor and his encounters with Madame De Pompedour throughout her life, as an army of clockwork robots prepare to attack her when she turns 37. In order to save her, the Doctor breaks the connection to the ship that the robots come from, causing them so shut down. However, his sacrifice doesn’t make sense as he finds another link 5 minutes later that gets him back to the TARDIS, so logically the robots should still function.

The robots also aren’t as creepy as the episode thinks they are. They make a big scene of the first reveal, but I just find the constant ticking annoying. I actually think the repair robots would be creepier if they were just the clockwork heads.

I’m not sure why they decided that the Doctor should fall in love with this woman that he has spent HOURS with at the most given that it adds literally nothing to the stiry, but if they wanted to go down that route she could have at least been likeable. I suppose they just needed somebody to fill in the gap that they left by taking Rose out of the main throst of the story: annoying character that we’re supposed to like that Ten inexplicably falls in love with.

5/10. I still don’t get why everybody always goes on about this one, I find it’s average at best.
