Winfred Rembert

(American/Georgia, 1945-2021)

dye on carved and tooled leather

Note:

Born in rural Georgia, raised in a community tied to the cotton fields, Winfred Rembert survived a childhood of poverty in the segregated South of the 1940s. He would go on to be a nationally recognized artist, and his biography - Chasing Me to My Grave: An Artist's Memoir of the Jim Crow South - was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 2022.

It was not a well paved path. In 1966, after a demonstration in Americus, Georgia, Rembert was arrested and put in jail without being charged. A year later, he escaped but was caught and hung up by a group of deputy sheriffs. They stuck him with a knife but did not kill and burn him as he had anticipated. He spent the next seven years in a chain gang. Remarkably, he met his wife while building roads and bridges in rural Georgia as part of his prison sentence. While in prison, a man named TJ taught him how to carve wallets out of leather, a skill that he would use decades later in his embossed leather paintings.

After his release, Rembert and Patsy married and they moved to New York, then Connecticut, where he worked a variety of jobs. Not until in his 50s after a second round in prison, did he begin to draw and paint the scenes of his youth, carving the stories into tactile leather canvases.

In 2000, Rembert had a well publicized show at the Yale University Art Gallery. In 2002, he was introduced to Peter Tillou after speaking about his artwork at a school in Waterbury, Connecticut. A short time later they agreed to a working relationship that included numerous exhibitions and his 2010 "coming out" show at Adelson Galleries in New York. His work has entered major museum and private collections.

Patsy Pulitzer (vers 1935)

Remember when a white Pulitzer-prize winning journalist and a white director of a law enforcement agency conspired to let a patsy take the fall for their white billionaire friend's crimes, in the hope that she would forgive THEM?

Makes me laugh every single time.

Day 11, 2019 - The Hudsucker Proxy

The Hudsucker Proxy – 1994 – Joel Coen (& Ethan Coen)

(Screwball Monday: CW – see notes)

“Only a numbskull thinks he knows things about things he knows nothing about.” – Amy Archer

It’s December 1958 in New York City and a young go-getter named Norville Barnes (Tim Robbins) has just come to town to make it in The Big Apple. After all, how could a gentleman with a swell education from Muncie Business College fail?

Norville has some trouble finding a job, on account of his lack of experience but suddenly his luck changes when he finds work in the mail room at Hudsucker Industries. Everything and everyone in the mail room is rather serious and there are lots of rules to follow.

And Hudsucker Industries has just had a blow. Head man in charge Waring Hudsucker (Charles Durning) has taken a header out of a window after a board meeting leaving people scrambling for what to do next. I mean, Mr. Hudsucker dying is sad and all, but what about the stock prices?

Board member and bad guy Sidney J. Mussburger (Paul Newman) knows what they need: a patsy – a  patsy to be put in charge while the men in the room gain control of the situation[i]. They only have until January 1, 1959 to do it, so they need to act fast. And who would be a better patsy than the gift of young Norville, who’s blithely walks into Sidney’s office holding a blue letter?

(A letter Norville promptly forgets to deliver.)

Once ensconced in the c-suite, Norville gets put in front of the press and the public is taken by this Muncian “ideas man”. But ace reporter Amy Archer (Jennifer Jason Leigh) thinks something fishy is going on and infiltrates Hudsucker Industries and becomes Norville’s “Girl Friday” to try and get a scoop.

Amy is charmed by Norville, but still thinks his ideas are cockamamie. Sidney thinks Norville’s circle concept is terrible…and immediately puts it into production.

Sidney’s hoping it will flop. And at first it does. But then, tragically, it takes America by storm!

Amy starts to fall in love with Norville, but the success of Norville’s circle toy starts going to his head. He starts taking on the characteristics of a lesser man. Should she come clean to Norville that she’s a reporter, or go ahead with her exposé?

Sidney doesn’t give her a chance to decide. He’s found out that she’s a Pulitzer prize winning journalist and tells Norville her secret…

Will Sidney gain control of the company? Will Amy write her story? Will Norville return to his mid-western ideals or remain swept up in big city life? It’s all coming down to New Year’s Ever…

The main theme of The Hudsucker Proxy is the cyclical versus linear view of the life and I think the movie expressed this in a lighthearted way.

This movie is also stunningly beautiful. The scale models of New York City being lightly dusted with snow look like something out of a story book, the costumes are beautiful[ii], and the sets are spectacular. Just look at how deep the spaces are that the characters inhabit – every inch has to feel true to that world and this movie`s production design and set decoration are impeccable.  

I was also struck by the many parallels I saw to another Coen Brothers’ movie I love, The Big Lebowski. In particular the use of repeated dialogue, the all-knowing narrator[iii] who suddenly appears in the story, and the use of a hula hoop[iv] (rather than a tumbleweed) to connect elements of the story.

I really liked The Hudsucker Proxy[v]. I was not expecting too. When the movie came out, to say that it was panned is an understatement. So I had just kind of assumed that the movie was not good. I was wrong.

Even taking into account that it’s written and directed by the Coen Brothers and I’m a fan of their work. But I will admit, sometimes it has eluded me. I love Raising Arizona, A Serious Man, No Country for Old Men…I can’t abide Burn After Reading or Intolerable Cruelty.

That said, after this great experience with The Hudsucker Proxy, maybe I should just give any Coen Brothers’ film I don’t immediately like 25 years and watch it again.

By then I’ll have caught up to their sensibilities.

NOTES:

[i] I actually think that the stock price/buy back plot element was clever. That said it can feel too convoluted for a straight forward screwball comedy. So, I understand what the detractors mean, I just think they’re wrong. One person’s cherry on the cake is another’s poop on a stick.

[ii] I want everything that Jennifer Jason Leigh wears. It`s all spectacular.

[v] March 2019 is actually the 25th anniversary for this film!
