    Herbert Marshall Filmography

    Favs/dislikes: 2:0. Herbert Marshall had trained to become a certified accountant, but his interest turned to the stage. He lost a leg while serving in World War I, he was rehabilitated with a wooden leg. This did not stop him from making good his decision to make the stage as his vocation. He used a very deliberate square-shouldered and guided walk - largely unnoticeable - to cover up his disability. He spent 20 years in distinguished stage work in London before films. He almost made the transition from stage directly to sound movies except for one silent film, Mumsie (1927), produced in Great Britain. His wonderful mellow, baritone British accent rolled out with a minimum of mouth movement and a nonchalant ease that stood out as unique. His rather blasé demeanor could take on various nuances - without overt emotion - to fit any role he played, whether sophisticated comedy or drama - and the accent fit just as well. He filled the range from romantic lead, with several sympathetic strangers thrown in, to dignified military officer to doctor to various degrees of villainy - his unemotional delivery meshing with the cold, impassive criminal character. He was almost 40 when he appeared in his first picture in Hollywood, The Letter (1929), a worthwhile comparison (but for the primitive sound recording) with the more famous second version (The Letter (1940)) with Bette Davis. Marshall is the murder victim in 1929 and the betrayed husband in 1940. He was heavily in demand in the 1930s, sometimes in five or six pictures a year. Perhaps his best suave comedic role was in Trouble in Paradise (1932), the first non-musical sound comedy by producer/director Ernst Lubitsch - to some, Lubitsch's greatest film. That same year, Marshall did one of his most warmly human, romantic roles in the marvelously erotic Blonde Venus (1932), with the captivating Marlene Dietrich. Through the 40s, his roles were of a more character variety but substantial. He was deviously subtle as the pre-World War II peace leader actually working against peace for a veiled foreign power (Germany) in Foreign Correspondent (1940). The film was one of Alfred Hitchcock 's earliest Hollywood films and, definitely, an under-rated adventure/thriller. Who could forget Marshall's small but standout performance as "Scott Chavez", who at the beginning of Duel in the Sun (1946) - with typical Marshall nonchalance - calmly shoots his cantina entertainer/Indian wife for her cheating ways? By the 50s, Marshall was doing fewer movies, but still a variety. His voice was perfect to lend credence to some early sci-fi classics like Riders to the Stars (1954) and Gog (1954) and the The Fly (1958). But he was also busy honing his considerable talent with various early-TV playhouse programs. He also fit comfortably into episodic TV including a rare five-episode run as a priest on 77 Sunset Strip (1958). All told, Herbert Marshall graced nearly 100 movie and TV roles with an aplomb that remains a rich legacy.

    High On Films' 50 Best Japanese Films of the 21st Century

    Favs/dislikes: 2:0. It is a general idea that the Japanese cinema’s downfall started in the 1980s, and the 90s economic stagnation knocked the film industry down until its revival through J-horror (in the late 1990s). But since cinema history is often written from a Western perspective, we need to deeply examine such one-dimensional outlook directed against any home-grown national cinema. It’s true that the spread of television reduced the number of theater-going audience in Japan in the 1970s and 1980s. At the same time, the Hollywood movies garnered more popularity than the Japanese ones. Moreover, the biggest Japanese film studios like Shochiku, Toho and Nikkatsu were in deep financial trouble from the start of 1970s and they hardly made the kind of films that found an international audience. Finally, we should take in the fact that around the 1980s & 1990s, Mainland Chinese, Hong Kong and Taiwanese cinema became the face of Asian cinema in the European and American markets. But it doesn’t mean there was dearth of new talents in the post-new wave generation Japanese cinema. From Kazhuhiko Hasegawa’s The Man Who Stole the Sun (1979), Kohei Oguri’s Muddy River (1981), Yoshimitsu Morita’s The Family Game (1983) to Juzo Itami’s The Funeral (1984) & Tampopo (1985), and Mitsuo Yanagimachi’s Fire Festival (1985), we are gradually discovering the gems of Japanese cinema from this era. One of the great Japanese auteurs, Nobuhiko Obayashi made some of his best works in the 1980s. And who can forget the rise of anime and the domination of Studio Ghibli in the 1980s & 1990s? Then there was Takeshi Kitano, Shinya Tsukamoto, Kiyoshi Kurosawa, Hirokazu Koreeda, Naomi Kawase, and so on. Even the veteran Japanese filmmakers like Nagisa Oshima, Shohei Imamura, Kaneto Shindo, Masahiro Shinoda, Seijun Suzuki, and Koji Wakamatsu were making movies in the 80s, 90s, and some even in the 2000s. The point is that – despite the limited output of the massive Japanese film industry in the decades following the 1960s or the alleged lack of creative flourish – Japanese cinema always continues to be one of the greatest cinemas around the globe. The masters of 21st century Japanese cinema are also engaged in the process of comforting the disturbed and disturbing the comforted. Maybe, our myopic tendencies might have kept some of the gems of modern Japanese cinema hidden. It’s akin to what the Nigerian author Adichie says about ‘the danger of a single story’. A phrase she uses in her TED speech to emphasize how false perceptions and overly simplistic beliefs can restrict our ideas about a person or a group or a country. In that way, movie lists are efficient to overcome the simplistic notions about a national cinema. A movie list, of course is strictly subjective, and hence it’s not definitive even though the title makes it sounds like that. In fact, making a movie list is not an act of educating movie-lovers. But it’s an act of learning and sharing. So join us in this process and let’s look at some of the best films of Japanese cinema from the ongoing 21st century:
