SUMMARY:Anjeana Hans
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:FROM VIENNA TO HOLLYWOOD: INDEPENDENT FILMS\, EXILE\, AND THE 
 SHAPING\nOF HOLLYWOOD GENRE\n\nWhen the Nazis rose to power in Germany in 
 1933\, they instituted laws\nthat systematically excluded Jewish Germans f
 rom cultural and social\nlife and thus marked the start of a wave of force
 d immigration. Many\nfilmmakers\, writers\, and actors forced into exile i
 nitially went to\nAustria\, where they were able to produce independent fi
 lms until the\n_Anschluss_ of 1938. This talk focuses on director Henry Ko
 ster\, who\nbegan his career in Berlin\, made several independent films wh
 ile in\nexile in Austria\, and finally reached Hollywood\, where he was on
 e of a\nfairly small number of exile directors to build a truly successful
 \ncareer. By tracing continuities across his work\, I will consider how\nK
 oster’s Austrian independent films\, which were marked indelibly by\nthe
  experience of exile\, shaped his later work and contributed to the\ndevel
 opment of Hollywood genres.\n\nPart of The Diefenbaker Lectures\n[/german

 erman studies.\n\n_Anjeana Hans is Professor and Chair of German Studies a
