Movies of 1939 Festival
Richard von Busack Booklet


Preface: Stanford Theatre in Palo Alto showed 48 films of "Movies of 1939" (November 5, 2019-January 5, 2020). I've gone there to enjoy 33 of the films of this vintage year. Below are haikus written on the 31 films with 16 photos of the Stanford Marquee as well as 70 photos of the window and lobby displays, and film posters with photo placards in the Memorabilia Room at the Stanford Theatre. Used James Stewart Film Festival as template for this web page. LINC62 Class assignments in "Multimedia Text Set" and "HyperDocs for Poetry Writing" prevented me seeing Union Pacific and Rose of Washington Square (Nov. 20). I thought Clark Gable was not awarded Best Actor for Rhett Butler in Gone With the Wind because they were jealous of "The King of Hollywood", but after seeing Goodbye, Mr. Chips, it seemed that Robert Donat deserved Best Actor Academy Award over Clark Gable, as well as Jimmy Stewart in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington and Lawrence Olivier in Wuthering Heights. I've seen Shop Around the Corner, Wizard of Oz, and Gone With the Wind four times already, but went again, so to take Marquee photos for this web page "Movies of 1939". Learned something new from Richard von Busack Booklet in his commentary on The Rains Came (p. 32)— "The Venn Diagram containing people who won both the Pulitzer Prize and the Croix de Guerre is very small." Louis Bromfield won both honors, and is author of 1937 novel. The film's flood scenes won 1939 Special Effects Academy Award over Gone With the Wind and The Wizard of Oz on this film. Bromfield went to Cornell & Columbia University, the same place I've studied— our common heritage on Venn Diagram. He began organic farming (1939) decades ahead of everyone. He was the best man at wedding of Humphrey Bogart & Lauren Bacall on his farm (5-21-1945). Bromfield was close friend with acting legend, farmer and soil conservationist James Cagney. Perhaps he'll introduce me to my favorite actor and dance man, James Cagney. Didn't go to
see It's a Wonderful Life (1946) on Dec. 24, since I saw it on December 24, 2018 (web page). May readers enjoy my homage to the Films of 1939.
