    Film and television actor and New York Times best-selling author Robert Wagner's memoir of the great women movie stars he has known. In a career that has spanned more than 60 years, Robert Wagner has witnessed the twilight of the Golden Age of Hollywood and the rise of television, becoming a beloved star in both media. During that time he became acquainted, both professionally and socially, with the remarkable women who were the greatest screen personalities of their day. I Loved Her in the Movies is his intimate and revealing account of the charisma of these women on film, why they became stars, and how their specific emotional and dramatic chemistries affected the choices they made as actresses as well as the choices they made as women. Among Wagner's subjects are Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, Marilyn Monroe, Gloria Swanson, Norma Shearer, Loretta Young, Joan Blondell, Irene Dunne, Rosalind Russell, Dorothy Lamour, Debra Paget, Jean Peters, Linda Darnell, Betty Hutton, Raquel Welch, Glenn Close, and the two actresses whom he ultimately married, Natalie Wood and Jill St. John. In addition to offering perceptive commentary on these women, Wagner also examines topics such as the strange alchemy of the camera - how it can transform the attractive into the stunning and vice versa - and how the introduction of color brought a new erotic charge to movies, one that enabled these actresses to become aggressively sexual beings in a way that that black and white films had only hinted at. Like Wagner's two previous best sellers, I Loved Her in the Movies is a privileged look behind the scenes at some of the most well-known women in show business as well as an insightful look at the sexual and romantic attraction that created their magic. ungekürzt.

    Wie geht eine Gesellschaft mit der Erfahrung ihrer existenziellen Verletzlichkeit um? Wie hat die Pandemie unseren Blick und unser Denken über Verlust verändert? Wie haben Klimawandel, Artensterben und andauernde Kriege unsere Formen von Klage und Trauer geprägt? Als performative Reflektion begegnet HELLO TO EMPTINESS diesen Fragen - ausgehend von den griechischen vor-antiken Klagegesängen ?Moiroloi?. Die Regisseurin und Choreografin Stephanie Thiersch entwickelt einen poetischen Raum, in dem alte Klagelieder und traditionelle Rituale eine Wiederbelebung erfahren und in neue Zusammenhänge gebracht werden. Der außergewöhnliche Cast bestehend aus fünf Musiker*innen und Tänzer*innen begibt sich auf die Suche nach einem verlorenen Wissen. Ein ?Chor der Älteren? unterstützt, kommentiert oder verdreht Gesänge und Bilder, verbindet Dunkelheit mit Licht und Leichtigkeit mit Witz. Die Aufführung spürt der Intimität und gleichzeitig dem Gemeinschaftlichen der Lamenti nach und versetzt die Anwesenden in eine kollektive Bewegung.Als Prolog zur Aufführung kann die Filminstallation VOICES OF LAMENTS besucht werden, die im Kontext der Arbeit an HELLO TO EMPTINESS entstand und das künstlerische Team mit lokalen Akteur*innen verbindet. Als so genannte ?Satelliten? sind sie unterschiedlichen Kulturtechniken, Liedern und Riten aus Ländern wie Griechenland, der Ukraine, Korea, Kenia nachgegangen, die ebenso Eingang in das performative Konzert gefunden haben.Stephanie Thiersch ist mit MOUVOIR regelmäßig am tanzhaus nrw zu Gast. Zuletzt präsentierte sie 2019 Bilderschlachten / Batailles d?Images. Die Inszenierung für insgesamt 55 Künstler*innen feierte international Erfolg. Als kompromisslose Beobachterin seziert sie mit MOUVOIR ihre Umwelt mit den Werkzeugen aus der Popkultur, Philosophie, Bildenden Kunst und Musik.Dauer: 70 Min.-------------------------------------How does a society deal when it experiences that it is fundamentally vulnerable? In what ways has the pandemic shifted our view and our thinking about loss? How have climate change, the extinction of species, and continuous wars shaped our means of grief and sorrow? HELLO TO EMPTINESS encounters these questions as a performative reflection ? based on the pre-antiquity Greek ?Moiroloi? laments. Director and choreographer Stephanie Thiersch develops a poetic space in which old laments and traditional rituals undergo reinvigoration, being put into new contexts. The exceptional cast, consisting of five musicians and dancers, embarks on a search for a lost knowledge. A ?Choir of Elders? supports, comments or twists songs and images, connecting darkness with light and ease with wit. The performance simultaneously probes both for the intimacy and communality of the laments, setting all those present into motion.It is possible to visit the film installation VOICES OF LAMENTS as a prologue to the performance. It was made within the work context of HELLO TO EMPTINESS and connects its artistic team to local actors and actresses. They pursued different cultural techniques, songs, and rituals from countries such as Greece, Ukraine, Korea, and Kenya as so-called ?satellites?, and they also found their way into the performative concept.Stephanie Thiersch regularly guests at tanzhaus nrw with MOUVOIR.
