Born 150 Years Ago Today: Sidney Olcott
Born 150 Years Ago Today: Sidney Olcott
September 20, 1872 was the natal day of actor, director and producer Sidney Olcott, a major mover and shaker of the silent era, especially the earlier days of the industry. Olcott was essentially the D.W. Griffith of Kalem Studios, functioning as director, producer and studio head through 1915. His most notable achievement was the blockbuster story of Christ, From the Manger to the Cross (1912),…

Thoughts on Monsieur Beaucaire (1924)
Tumblr media
I told myself I wouldn't watch Monsieur Beaucaire until it was in a restored version that did Natacha Rambova's gorgeous costumes justice, but... I didn't lol.
The film is set in 18th century France and England, and follows the adventures of the Duke of Chartres (Rudolph Valentino) as he gets into swordfights and pretends to be of humble means so he can find a woman who loves him for himself and not his title.
For those unaware, Monsieur Beaucaire has a dour reputation, much of it related to Natacha Rambova'a alleged chokehold over the production and her husband Rudolph Valentino, the star of the film. She was accused of meddling on the set (actress Doris Kenyon remembers her giving Valentino silent direction via gesture on the sidelines while cameras rolled) and making Valentino's screen image overly "effeminate," dressing him in lacy rococo fashions and powdered wigs. Famous Players head Jesse Lasky complained the studio could only get Valentino on Natacha's terms or no dice. Ken Russell's Valentino biopic exaggerates this notion further, featuring a scene in which Rambova is shouting direction to Valentino and his leading lady over the director while filming.
As always, this "wicked woman, poor dope husband" narrative undermines Valentino's respect for his wife as an artist and his own agency in choosing material. Valentino detested the lusty sheik role that made him famous and longed to appear in more artistic productions. Monsieur Beaucaire was a light comedy that featured a bit of swashbuckling-- all things that would allow Valentino to show off his comic chops and athleticism. I doubt he was unduly swayed by his wife in choosing this script-- he probably saw this as an ideal vehicle to show another side of his skill.
I'm not going to argue Beaucaire is a lost classic. It's let down by some truly underwhelming direction from Sidney Olcott. The material cries for a far lighter touch, but the mood is crushed underneath bland direction and a mountain of wordy title cards and endless supporting characters who leave no impression. Clocking in at 105 minutes, some streamlining would not have hurt.
Two things stand out: Valentino's performance and Ramobva's gorgeous costumes. I've always loved Valentino's comedic abilities-- the guy could be very funny and I really wish he'd gotten to appear in a Lubitsch film. Valentino was also humble enough to kid his own screen image as a torrid lover, which you can get glimmers of here.
And then those costumes-- my God, they are divine!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Monsieur Beaucaire was a hit in big cities, but floundered in smaller venues. Fans seem to have been divided in the final product. Some found Valentino graceful and delightful, while others longed for a return to more passionate, menacing roles. It's not a film I would recommend for silent film novices, but if you like Valentino, you'll likely be charmed by his performance.

📺Silent Film | Classic | 2AM In The Subway (1905) | Comedy| Short Subject...
This silent film was created on 6-5-1905 by American Mutoscope and directed by Billy Blitzer.  A policeman and a subway attendant are working very late at night in an underground subway station. In only 53 seconds, the film covers public morality, late-night after-partying, and a practical joke. Although the six actors involved are unidentified, aside from Sidney Olcott, who plays the inebriated man, the action is tightly coordinated in order to get all of the action into such a short film.   Never Miss An Upload, Join the channel: https://cutt.ly/MrPsClassicTV

Books
- 1890, The Untold Sequel of the Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Frances H. Little is a 're-telling' of the story based on the -idea that Edward Hyde was an actual person, a former actor whom Jekyll had met in America and brought to London, and not the alter ego of Henry Jekyll. Told from the perspective first of Utterson and then of Hyde, the story recounts Hyde murdering first Sir Danvers Carew in an opium-induced fit of rage, then Jekyll for the inheritance stated in Jekyll's will, and finally hiding Jekyll's body in a secret room in Jekyll's house. Hyde finally tricks Lanyon with a false transformation before committing suicide as in Stevenson's book.
- 1979, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Holmes by Loren D. Estleman is a 'retelling' of the story based on the idea that Utterson hired Sherlock Holmes to investigate Hyde's connection to Jekyll in the belief that Hyde is a blackmailer. The novel is written in a manner that suggests it was essentially taking place 'behind the scenes' of the familiar storyline, with Utterson hiring Holmes to investigate the apparent blackmail and the Queen herself later asking Holmes to investigate the death of Sir Danvers Carew. The story culminates with Holmes and Watson confronting Hyde just as he consumes the last sample of the potion to turn back into Jekyll, Jekyll telling them his story before forcing Holmes to kill him, as he recognizes that Hyde will never commit suicide and cannot bring himself to do it. In the novel's final chapter, Holmes shares the story with Robert Louis Stevenson, but asks that Stevenson leave Holmes and Watson out of his version of the story to prevent anyone realizing that it is a chronicle of real events and to avoid facing the legal issue of Holmes killing Jekyll, even if in self-defence.
- 1990, Robert Bloch and Andre Norton's The Jekyll Legacy acts as a sequel to the novel, in which Hester Lane, a reporter from Canada, discovers that she is Jekyll's heir. However, someone is continuing Jekyll's experiments. The novel takes an even more sinister turn as Jekyll's butler Poole and Utterson are bludgeoned to death.
- 2001, Ludovic Debeurme's Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, an illustrated edition adapted for young readers.
- The Robert Swindells book Jacqueline Hyde concerns the protagonist's struggle with her 'Hyde' after smelling a bottle, the contents of which releases her bad side.

The first members of the club are Mary Jekyll, Doctor Jekyll's legitimate daughter, and the near-feral Diana Hyde, with the first novel seeing these two meeting their fellows and confronting the still-living Edward Hyde.

The film adaptation stars Jason Flemyng as both Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, the latter using prosthetic makeup. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde are employed by the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen to combat the Fantom. The version of Hyde depicted in both comic and movie bears more resemblance to the Hulk than the malevolent dwarf of the novel, possessing great strength and size. As in the comic book on which it is based, this is attributed to Hyde "growing, free from boundaries, free from limitations" (although the film version is still dependent on Jekyll drinking the serum to transform, rather than Hyde no longer requiring the potion to manifest).

Georges Barbier en su faceta como ilustrador de moda, dedicó también parte de su trabajo a la creación de diseño escénico y a la publicidad de la actividad teatral de su época.
Su actividad relacionada con la moda ha sido más reconocida que aquella que realizó vinculada al teatro, cuyo primer contacto se produjo en 1913 al ser contratado para realizar ilustraciones del ya afamado bailarín de los Ballets Rusos de Diaguilev, Nijinsky. Con el título “Designs on the Dances of Vaslav Nijinsky”.
En 1923 diseña trajes para el “Folies Bergère” de París y pronto su fama trasciende el continente y es reclamado por Rodolfo Valentino y su esposa Natacha Rambova, bailarina y diseñadora, (con quien compartiría el crédito del vestuario) para la película muda interpretada por el famoso actor e ídolo del cine, “Monsiuer Beaucaire” (Sidney Olcott, 1924).
Barbier se incorporó también en la creación de diseños de vestuario y decorados para las famosas producciones de Folies Bergère, destacándose por las propuestas atrevidas para la vestimenta de las vedettes y bailarinas.
El último trabajo de George Barbier fue para el espectáculo del Casino de París con Josephine Baker, titulado «Bird of the Forest» quien diera lugar a la famosa imagen de la vedette denominada como el “traje del pájaro”. Después de este, no quedan referencias de trabajos posteriores de Barbier.Como se aprecia en las imágenes publicadas, el trabajo para la escena de este creador está muy relacionado con su obra para la moda. Con algunas excepciones, la expresividad dramática se anula por la abundancia decorativa.
