History
Of The HEARST
METROTONE NEWS
The Hearst newsreel went through a series of incarnations. Begun in the teens,
these newsreels were first envisioned as a way to boost Hearst-owned newspaper
readership. The tabloid style of Hearst papers would heavily influence the style
and content of the newsreels, and arguably television news forms as well. The
silent Hearst reels covered topics such as the First World War, the Mexican
American War, the Black Sox Scandal, adventurous aviators, and North Pole
explorers. European royalty were given special attention in the newsreels. The
attraction of celebrity served the reel further when it became half-owned by
MGM. Distributed with MGM features throughout the 1930s and 1940s, the reel
could promote the studio's stars in the guise of news items. The onset of
television news ended the golden age of the newsreel, but it nonetheless
continued to be distributed theatrically well into the 1960s.

REMBRANDT & THE BIBLE
(The
Human Dimension) 1970, Rembrandt's last years were spent entirely alone, but his love of art and of his fellow man made him unconquerable. As an illustrator of the Bible he is unsurpassed; he brooded over every episode of it in the light of his own experience, and gave to it a vivid and dramatic form. In consequence he is really the only great Protestant artist.
