History 17 Presentation
1. After World War 2, American films reflected the nation's post-war fears and anxieties through "social problem films" that examined issues like veterans' economic and social readjustment or racism.
2. As suspicions grew about the Soviets, the HUAC accused Hollywood of producing "un-American" films and blacklisted those who refused questioning, causing fear in the film industry.
3. Science fiction films of the era explored the paranoia of communist subversion through themes of infiltration and invasion, while other films reinforced traditional American values to appease audiences.
HUAC
The document summarizes the Hollywood Blacklist period in the 1940s-1950s when the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) investigated Hollywood for alleged communist influence.

The red scare
The document discusses the Second Red Scare that occurred in the United States from 1947 to 1957. During this period, hysteria grew over the perceived threat of communism as tensions increased between the US and Soviet Union in the early stages of the Cold War. This led the US government to investigate people for signs of communist sympathies, including federal employees and those in the film industry. Notable figures like Senator Joseph McCarthy made unsubstantiated accusations of communist influence. The climate of fear surrounding communism began to ease by the late 1950s.
Hollywood blacklist
The document summarizes the Hollywood Blacklist that occurred in the United States during the 1940s and 1950s. The House Committee on Un-American Activities began investigating links between the film industry and communism in 1947. Ten screenwriters, directors, and producers who refused to answer questions about communist affiliations became known as the Hollywood Ten and were cited for contempt. This led film studios to create blacklists that prevented those who had been accused of communist ties from finding work in the industry, effectively ending their careers. The blacklist expanded greatly over the next decade as people were compelled to testify and name others. By the early 1960s, lawsuits and public pressure helped bring an end to the blacklisting, though the stigma continued for some

The Red Scare
The Red Scare refers to two periods of intense anti-communist sentiment in the United States in the 20th century. During World War I and again in the late 1940s through 1950s, there was widespread fear of communist infiltration of the US government. This led to investigations and persecution of suspected communists, such as Ethel and Julius Rosenberg who were executed for espionage, and Alger Hiss who was accused of being a communist spy. The government implemented loyalty programs and acts restricting immigration to crack down on communist threats during the Cold War era.
McCarthy's Downfall
This document defines the word "demagogue" as a political leader who appeals to prejudices rather than rational arguments. It then describes Joseph McCarthy as a demagogue. It summarizes the See It Now documentary series that publicly attacked McCarthy's techniques, and the Army-McCarthy hearings where McCarthy accused the Army of being infiltrated by Communists while the Army accused McCarthy aide Roy Cohn of improper conduct. It concludes with Joseph Welch challenging McCarthy during the hearings.
Mc Carthyism And The Red Scare
McCarthyism and the Red Scare led many Americans to fear communists during the Cold War era of tension with the Soviet Union. Senator Joseph McCarthy claimed that 205 communists worked in the state department without evidence, using bold tactics to accuse people like Charlie Chaplin and Samuel Mostel. While thousands were arrested in raids like the Palmer Raids, most were detained without trial and no communist revolution occurred as claimed. Eventually, the Red Scare was viewed as a hoax as the predicted revolution never materialized.
McCarthy and McCarthyism- Cold War Project
The document discusses Senator Joseph McCarthy and the era of McCarthyism in the 1950s, including details about McCarthy's life, political career, and his infamous 1950 speech where he claimed to have a list of 205 communists working for the State Department which led to widespread witch hunts and blacklisting in the United States. McCarthyism ultimately tarnished McCarthy's reputation and legacy before his death in 1957 at the age of 48 from health complications related to alcoholism.
USA and the Red Menace
This document discusses the policy of containment used by the United States to prevent the spread of communism during the Cold War. It describes containment as preventing communist expansion without actively spreading capitalism. The key strategies used included military interventions, alliances like NATO, an arms race, and brinkmanship. During this period, fears of communism led to increased domestic anti-communist actions like investigations by the FBI and HUAC that ruined lives and careers through suspicions and blacklisting. Senator Joseph McCarthy further exploited these fears through unsubstantiated accusations in his anti-communist witch hunts.
McCarthyism
Senator Joseph McCarthy led a witch hunt in the 1950s accusing many Americans of being communists. He targeted government workers like John Service and Hollywood figures. McCarthy's accusations grew unreasonable over time as he attacked even the U.S. Army without proof. Public opinion turned against McCarthy and the Senate condemned his actions, marking the end of the McCarthy era.
Second Red Scare - Cold War II
The document summarizes the Second Red Scare period in the United States during the Cold War from 1945-1953. It describes how fears of communism grew due to the Soviet Union developing nuclear weapons and the rise of Communist China. The House Un-American Activities Committee investigated suspected communists within the US and the Hollywood Ten were arrested. Laws like the Smith Act and McCarran Act restricted communist activities and travel. Senator Joseph McCarthy falsely accused many Americans of being communists, fueling further fears through "McCarthyism" until his tactics became too extreme and he lost public support.
Day 4 Red Scare Cold War
There was a fear of communism infiltrating the US government during the 1950s Red Scare era. Senator Joseph McCarthy exploited this fear by claiming to have a list of 205 communists working for the state department, though he provided no evidence. His hearings devolved into a witch hunt targeting many on false accusations. McCarthy's tactics were eventually condemned when he began threatening the Army, leading to a Senate vote to censure him in 1954.
Free Press, Fair Trial
This document discusses tensions that can arise between the First Amendment, which protects freedom of the press, and the Sixth Amendment, which guarantees fair trials. It explores several high-profile cases where pretrial publicity threatened defendants' right to an impartial jury. While prior restraint of the press is generally unconstitutional, courts must balance these rights and sometimes allow limits like gag orders or closed proceedings. Alternative measures like changing venues, extensive voir dire of jurors, and sequestration are preferred to restrict media access only as a last resort.
Genre research
The document provides an overview of the history and characteristics of action films. It discusses the origins of the genre in the 1920s with films like "The Great Train Robbery." Key developments included the rise of war and cowboy films in the 1940s-50s and the James Bond franchise in the 1960s. CGI became prevalent in action films starting in the 1990s with successes like "Star Wars" and "The Matrix." Common conventions of action films include guns, explosions, chase scenes, a good guy vs. bad guy plot, and destruction of property. Recent box office hits like "Fast and Furious 7" and controversies around films depicting war like "American Sniper" are also summarized.
Fys activity in class
This document contains a student's responses to questions about 6 different historical photographs.

The student also provides their own caption and suggests ways to find more context about the photo. Overall, the document demonstrates the student's ability to analyze historical photos and make inferences about the people, events, and time periods depicted.
Second Red Scare
The document summarizes key events that helped trigger the Second Red Scare in the mid-20th century in the United States, including the Soviet Union developing atomic weapons in 1949, the rise of Communist control in China, laws targeting Communist organizations and sympathizers in the US, high-profile spy cases involving the Soviets, President Truman's investigations of government employees for loyalty, Senator Joseph McCarthy's baseless accusations of Communist infiltration and his rise of McCarthyism, the House Un-American Activities Committee investigations of Hollywood, and McCarthy's eventual decline in popularity from 1954 after attacking the US Army.
Jfk day 6
This document summarizes key details regarding the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963. It outlines evidence pointing to Lee Harvey Oswald as the lone assassin from the Texas School Book Depository as well as alternative conspiracy theories involving Cuban exiles, the Soviet Union, or organized crime. The document also describes Oswald's movements after the shooting and his subsequent killing by Jack Ruby two days later.
Tengowski - I-4 election of 1948
Truman's popularity sharply declined after becoming president in 1945, falling from 87% to 32% by 1946. In the 1946 midterm elections, Republicans gained control of both houses of Congress. Truman ran for re-election in 1948 against Republican Thomas Dewey and two third party candidates. Early polls showed Dewey leading, but Truman campaigned aggressively across the country. On election day, Truman defeated Dewey in an upset victory, becoming the first president to be elected after succeeding to the office upon the death of his predecessor.
70s Jeopardy
The document appears to be a quiz about various people and events related to US presidents from the 1970s including Richard Nixon, Jimmy Carter, and Gerald Ford. It asks questions about the Watergate scandal, Nixon's visit to China, and leaders like Mao and Brezhnev. Other topics covered include the Vietnam War, the 1972 Munich Olympics, and Middle East conflicts like the Yom Kippur War and Camp David Accords.
McCarthyism & The Crucible
Joseph McCarthy was a U.S. senator in the early 1950s who led a controversial campaign against supposed Communist infiltration of the U.S. government. He accused many people of being Communists without providing evidence. This period became known as McCarthyism. Arthur Miller wrote the play The Crucible in 1953 as an allegory for McCarthyism, depicting the Salem witch trials as a metaphor for the anti-communist hysteria and investigations. The play was a critique of the tactics used during the McCarthy era like interrogations and accusations without proof.
Nixon Day 9
The Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan in 1979 with 80,000 troops, which President Carter called the greatest threat to peace. The US supported anti-Soviet Islamic rebels including Osama Bin Laden and the Taliban with $40 billion in aid. Iran also experienced unrest in 1979 as the Shah was removed from power, resulting in Iranian students taking 52 American hostages at the US embassy in Tehran for 444 days. Carter's weak response to these crises, including a failed rescue operation, led Americans to feel their influence had declined and left them wanting a stronger leader.

During an audition for a movie, actor Y accidentally punched actor X. X told Y to calm down as it was only an audition. When Y said he could do better with a "real" actor, the director revealed that X was the real actor and writer. Though initially upset, Y later said that X "might get better." X then offered Y the role.
The document identifies X as Stallone and Y as Carl Weathers, and the movie as Rocky.
Finals
The McBain movie clips shown in The Simpsons are actually parodies of famous action movie scenes from films like Die Hard and Terminator 2. They are intentionally absurd and over-the-top, often featuring ridiculous levels of violence, destruction and death totally inappropriate for a family TV show. This helps lampoon and satirize the genre of cheesy 1980s action films that the character of Rainier Wolfcastle/McBain is spoofing.
Film history part 2
1) In the early 1900s, the film industry was growing rapidly but also facing criticism over its influence. Several major film companies formed a trust called the Motion Picture Patents Company to gain control of the industry.

3) In the 1950s, the McCarthy hearings and blacklist ruined many lives in the film industry, accusing many in Hollywood of being communist sympathizers. Charlie Chaplin was among those targeted by Senator McCarthy.

- The Male Gaze theory proposes that media represents women from a sexualized, male perspective that objectifies women through techniques like nudity, body framing, and inappropriate clothing. Films like

Theory
Fight Club is a 1999 film directed by David Fincher, based on the 1996 novel of the same name by Chuck Palahniuk. It follows the narrator and Tyler Durden as they form an underground fighting club for disaffected men. When released, the film was a box office disaster due to themes of misogyny, violence, and anti-consumerism. However, it developed a cult following for resonating with the lost Generation X audience and questioning prosperity without fulfillment. The film uses the nostalgic film noir style to suggest the American Dream is fading and should be destroyed, rather than fought for.

- 1. The context of production
- 2. Historical • Watched birth of Hollywood documentary from which we learned of the first pioneers of the film industry such as D.W Griffith, Charlie Chaplin and Mary Pickford and the foundation of the United Artists. • I put together a leaflet on the birth of Hollywood and a short silent film in black and white and shows the technology they would have dealt with at the time.
- 3. Cultural • Investigated ideology culture, and cultural relevance to a few specific films. • I chose to do secondary research on the USA and the history of horror. I highlighted how the content of the horror film reflect what the nation was fearing at the time i.e .zombies = disease/war, Fred Kruger = serial killers/sex offenders.
- 4. Remakes • I researched the details of three remakes including ‘’Judge Dredd’’, ‘’I am legend’’ and ‘’dawn of the dead’’. All had there pros and cons for example ‘’I am legend’’ was better known than the original however ‘’Judge Dredd’’ didn't even break even at the box office. • We also looked at back to the future I also put together a script of a remade back to the future in a post apocalyptic 2045, and made a moodboard for the 1980s showing what was on peoples minds at the time.
- 5. Findings and conclusion • I have learned from studying this history of film and information regarding specific points particularly in horror. That the west projects its fears through films as we saw with the zombie genre which represents fear of disease and a post apocalyptic fear that society could break down. In my opinion to conclude I think that the context of production reflects what is happening in the society at hand.
