Janelle Monae
In 2007, Monae released her first solo work, titled Metropolis. It was originally conceived as a concept album in four parts, or "suites", which were to be released through her website and mp3 download sites. After the release of the first part of the series, Metropolis: Suite I (The Chase) in mid-2007, these plans were altered following her signing with Sean "Diddy" Combs’s label, Bad Boy Records, later in the year. The label gave an official and physical release to the first "suite" in August 2008, which was re-titled Metropolis: The Chase Suite (Special Edition) and included two new tracks. The EP was generally well-received by critics, garnering Monae a 2009 Grammy nomination in the Best Urban/Alternative Performance for her single "Many Moons",[6] festival appearances and opening slots for the indie pop band Of Montreal. Monae also toured as the opening act for band No Doubt on their summer 2009 tour.[7] Her single "Open Happiness" was featured in the 2009 season finale of American Idol.[8] Monae told MTV about her concept for her new album and also discussed her alter-ego named Cindi Mayweather, she said:
"Cindy is an android and I love speaking about the android because they are the new “other”. People are afraid of the other and I believe we’re going to live in a world with androids because of technology and the way it advances. The first album she was running because she had fallen in love with a human and she was being disassembled for that."
In a November 2009 interview, Monae revealed the title and concept behind her album, The ArchAndroid. The album was released on 18 May 2010. The second and third suites of Metropolis are combined into this full-length release, in which Monae’s alter-ego, Cindi Mayweather—also the protagonist of Metropolis: The Chase Suite— becomes a messianic figure to the android community of Metropolis.[10] Monae noted that she plans to shoot a video for each song on The ArchAndroid and create both a movie and graphic novel based on the album.[11] The Metropolis concept series draws inspiration from a wide range of musical, cinematic and other sources, ranging from Alfred Hitchcock to Debussy to Philip K. Dick. However, the series puts Fritz Lang’s 1927 silent film Metropolis, which Monae referred to as "the godfather of science-fiction movies," in special regard.[12][13] Aside from sharing a name, they also share visual styles (the cover for The ArchAndroid is inspired by the iconic poster for Metropolis), conceptual themes and political goals, using expressionistic future scenarios to examine and explode contemporary ideas of prejudice and class. Both also include a performing female android, though to very different effect. Where Metropolis android Maria is the evil, havoc-sowing double of the messianic figure to the city’s strictly segregated working class, Monae’s messianic android muse Cindi Mayweather represents an interpretation of androids as that segregated minority, which Monae describes as "… the Other. And I feel like all of us, whether in the majority or the minority, felt like the Other at some point."[12][14]
Monae received the Vanguard Award from the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers at the Rhythm & Soul Music Awards in 2010.[15] Monae covered Charlie Chaplin’s Smile on Billboard.com in June 2010. In an NPR interview in September 2010, Monae stated that she is a believer in, and a proponent of time travel. Monae performed "Tightrope" during the second elimination episode of the 11th Season of Dancing with the Stars on September 28, 2010.[16] Monae performed at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards in 2011 alongside artists Bruno Mars and B.o.B; Monae performed the synth section of B.o.B’s song "Nothin’ On You" and she then performed her track "Cold War" with B.o.B on the Guitar and Mars on the drums. Her performance received a standing ovation.[17]
Her single, "Tightrope" was featured on the American Idols LIVE! Tour 2011, perf
The Good Wife
Louise Platt
Last surviving passenger from ‘Stagecoach’
The actress Louise Platt was the last surviving player of the passengers aboard the overland stage in John Ford’s classic western Stagecoach (1939). She portrayed the prim and pregnant Lucy Mallory, on her way to join her cavalry officer husband and uneasy in the presence of a prostitute (Claire Trevor), whose attempts at consideration she rebuffs.
Her fellow passengers were a former doctor ruined by alcoholism (Thomas Mitchell), a timid whiskey salesman (Donald Meek), a gambler (John Carradine), an absconding banker (Berton Churchill) and a marshal (George Bancroft). John Wayne, as an escaped prisoner, joins the group near the start of their journey. Amidst the action and suspense so thrillingly captured by Ford, the sequence at a hacienda where Platt has her baby is touchingly tender.
Primarily a stage actress – her first husband was the theatre director Jed Harris, one of the most talented (and hated) men in show business – Platt made only four more films before returning to the New York theatre.
Born in Stamford, Connecticut, in 1915, she was the daughter of a high-ranking navy doctor and spent most of her childhood in Annapolis near the naval academy. After being educated in New York, Manila and Hong Kong, she decided on acting as a career. Following several seasons with repertory companies, she made her Broadway debut in Philip Barry’s short-lived comedy Spring Dance (1936), having replaced Imogene Coca during a summer tryout. The play’s producer-director was Jed Harris, a colourful and controversial figure, whose romantic conquests were many. When Platt became his lover, she was succeeding Katharine Hepburn and Margaret Sullavan.
Harris had become a Broadway legend when, at the age of 28, he produced four straight smash hits (Broadway, Coquette, The Royal Family and The Front Page) in the space of 18 months – a feat never again matched on Broadway. Though regarded by many as a genius, he was also known for his rages, his feuds and his disrespectful treatment of women.
When Platt went to Hollywood after appearing in two more Broadway failures, Harris pursued her and, after a stormy courtship, they were finally married in Mexico City. On the journey back to California, said Platt, he told her he was sorry he had married her. "When we did Spring Dance he was even-tempered, really brilliant," she told the author Martin Gottfried:
He could control his temper, he could deal with people. But when things began to dry up and more people turned against him, that was when his quest for power over people became frightening.
Platt became petrified of her husband, though she said his violence was usually directed at objects, hurling ashtrays or kicking out windows. By the time Platt had their daughter in 1941 they were divorced. The birth of the child brought them together again for a time, despite the abuse Platt suffered. "Louise adored Jed," said her friend Dorris Johnson, wife of the writer Nunnally Johnson. "She was almost worshipful." Forty years later, her memories of Harris were so painful that she had scissored him out of all the snapshots in her scrapbooks.
Her screen debut was in a romantic melodrama, I Met My Love Again (1937), starring Henry Fonda and Joan Bennett. She played a rich, spoiled student who tries to force her teacher, Fonda, to return her affection. In Spawn of the North (1938), an adventure yarn of salmon fishers in Alaska, she was a newspaper editor’s daughter wooed by Fonda.
After her sterling work in Stagecoach, her most memorable role, Jed Harris then asked his friend the writer Ed Chodorov to use his influence at MGM on her behalf. The result was a starring role opposite Melvyn Douglas in Tell No Tales (1939), a fast-paced melodrama in which she played the witness to a kidnapping. The film failed to propel her to the front ranks, however, and her film career petered out in three "B" movies. Her last film, Street of Chance (1942), was one of her finest, an intriguing early film noir in which an amnesiac (Burgess Meredith) desperately tries to discover his identity and clarify his involvement in a murder.
Platt returned to the New York stage in Five Alarm Waltz (1941), a four-performance flop directed by Harris and notable only as the last play in which Elia Kazan appeared as an actor. Kazan later wrote of Harris’s "abominable" treatment of Platt. "He had her," he recalled, "completely beaten down." After retiring to bring up her daughter, she returned to Broadway in her only hit show, Maxwell Anderson’s Anne of the Thousand Days (1948), in which she played Anne Boleyn’s sister Mary.
Her final play was produced and directed by Harris. Herman Wouk’s The Traitor (1949) was a downbeat Cold War thriller that took in such subjects as atom-bomb secrets, Communism, academic freedom and Soviet-US relations. Though Variety con
