On Peter Pan

Scene from Mabou Mines Peter and Wendy with Karen Kandel. Photograph taken by Richard Termine.I remember reading Peter Pan as a kid, a version based on the 1953 Disney movie—based on J. M. Barrie’s story. It turned me on. I’m six or seven, and I’m flipping through the pages, and there’s a picture of Peter with his arms crossed and his back to Wendy.

Winchester ’73

Take Seven: Object Lessons The Myth Maker Justin Stewart on Winchester ’73 Firearms—and the violence they both enable and wreak—are as fundamental to American cinema as they are to the history of a land stolen and colonized at gunpoint and a nation whose independence (and later, union) was purchased with oceans of shed blood. When moral superintendents throughout American film history have seen fit to protect delicate sensitivities through censorship, government review, and ratings b...

Growing Up - Sex in the Sixties by Peter Doggett review - Evening Standard

The sexual revolution of the sixties was not one single thing. For gay men, for example, it represented greater tolerance to homosexuality, through the 1967 Sexual Offences Act.
