EPISODE 86 - “ANNA MAY WONG: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH” - 5/5/2025 Anna May Wong was once the most famous Chinese woman in the world. The trailblazing actress, philanthropist, and fashion icon appeared in over 60 films and was a celebrated star, yet, at the time, she was not allowed to kiss a Caucasian man on screen, which limited the roles she could take, and she was not allowed to buy a house in Beverly Hills. A strange dichotomy, indeed. In recent years, she has enjoyed a much-deserved resurgence. Known as a Trailblazer and a cultural icon, she paved the way for generations of Asian and Asian American actors by proving that talent and perseverance could transcend racist casting conventions. Her life and career continue to influence conversations about diversity, representation, and the politics of race in Hollywood. This week, she is our Star of the Month.

MDTC showcases the vibrant dance and folkloric heritage of the Mediterranean, spanning North Africa, the Middle East, and Southern Europe. Through captivating performances and educational initiatives, MDTC brings to life the region's music, myths, and traditions, preserving and sharing its cultural tapestry. In this conversation, Morgiana and Samara share how they discovered their affinity for Middle Eastern dance, why they felt it wasn't adequately represented in the US, and how they formed the Mosaic Dance Theatre Company. We discuss the many shows they've produced, including their special upcoming 20th-anniversary show, Visions of the Near East, how they manage their creative partnership, and the challenges of running a nonprofit.

Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves is one of the most well-known stories fromA Thousand and One Arabian Nights. It's a tale of wit and cunning and it's all rather violent. Bugt it stands as proof that intelligence can triumph over brute strength. ✨
Jaume Segalés habla del centenario del Teatro Alcázar y nos lleva a una sesión de cine clásico. Cumplir 100 años es un buen motivo de celebración. Por eso le damos la enhorabuena al Teatro Alcázar, del cual hablamos con cierta frecuencia ya que sigue muy vivo programando obras de éxito en su cartelera. Ubicado en el número 20 de la calle Alcalá, justo donde hasta entonces había existido el Trianón Palace, las obras del entonces denominado Teatro Alkázar (con K) comenzaron en 1921, para acabar siendo inaugurado el 27 de enero de 1925 como un espléndido coliseo en el que aristócratas y burgueses acudían a ver los más novedosos espectáculos. Un edificio proyectado por el arquitecto Eduardo Sánchez Eznarriaga que, debido a su fallecimiento, termino su compañero de profesión Eduardo Lozano Lardet. El edificio ha vivido numerosas vicisitudes, entre ellas dos incendios, de los cuáles uno fue profundamente trágico, el de la discoteca Alcalá 20. Tras pasar por diversos propietarios durante décadas, a día de hoy y desde 1999, es el Grupo Smedia el encargado de su gestión, con un enfoque que ha situado a este espacio escénico como un referente clave para disfrutar principalmente de comedias y de espectáculos de humor de calidad para todos los públicos. Entrevistamos al director de ventas de Smedia, Juan Luis Lucas.Cine clásico Es sesión continua Antolín de la Torre hoy nos habla sobre Alí Babá y los 40 ladrones (Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves). Película de aventuras de 1944 protagonizada por María Montez, Jon Hall y Turhan Bey, y dirigida por Arthur Lubin. La película se inspira en el relato de Las mil y una noches, pero la historia se aparta mucho de la original e incluye un acontecimiento histórico real. La película forma parte de las series de cuentos "exóticos" lanzados por Universal Pictures durante los años de guerra. La historia comienza justo después de la exitosa conquista mongola de Bagdad por Hulagu (Kurt Katch). El califa Hassan (Moroni Olsen) ha escapado del cautiverio, junto con su joven hijo Alí (Scotty Beckett), y se preparan para reagrupar lo que queda de sus tropas. Durante su estancia en la mansión del príncipe Cassim (Frank Puglia), Alí y Amara (Yvette Duguay), la hija de Cassim, por temor a no volver a verse, se desposan ellos mismos a través de un pacto de sangre.

(Volume 1) Arabian Nights - The Book of the Thousand Nights and a Night by Anonymous audiobook. The main frame story concerns a king and his new bride. The king, Shahryar, upon discovering his ex-wife's infidelity executes her and then declares all women to be unfaithful. He begins to marry a succession of virgins only to execute each one the next morning. Scheherazade agrees to marry him and each night, beginning on the night of their marriage, she tells the king a tale but does not end it so that the king keeps her alive in order to hear the next tale. The stories proceed from this original tale; some are framed within other tales, while others begin and end of their own accord. Some editions contain only a few hundred tales, while others include 1001 or more stories and 'nights.' Well known stories from the Nights include Aladdin, Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, and The Seven Voyages of Sinbad the Sailor. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It has become one of the most familiar of the "Arabian Nights" tales, and is where the phrase “Open, Sesame!” comes from.

We are in a series called "Never Too Old For Fairy Tales: Engaging Our Biblical Imagination". From now through June, we will hopefully be enchanted with the story of God again. Not just the story of God found in Scriptures, but the story of God that continues in this present moment. We will be engaging our imaginations and creativity, which seem to atrophy as we grow into adulthood, by revisiting some childhood fairytales and discovering how these stories might illuminate God and the Scriptures for us in a new way. This week, from the story “Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves”, Pastor Karla uncovers the power of words. The way we use language has the power to open doors or close hearts.

My guest, Tom Zimmerman is the author of The Queen of Technicolor: Maria Montez in Hollywood. Montez was a unique star, imperious, but warm, not known for her acting ability, but skilled in committing completely to a role, whether in a skimpy costume for the six legendary Neverland films she made for Universal, or in a grittier setting, such as for her more noirish European roles. We talked about the magnetism, determination, and integrity of this remarkable woman. The Queen of Technicolor: Maria Montez in Hollywood by Tom Zimmerman, is a publication of University Press of Kentucky. There are links to several places where you can purchase the book on their website. Films discussed: Boss of Bullion City (1940) (Maria's first role) South of Tahiti (1941) (Maria's breakout sarong role) The Universal Studios Neverland Films (not discussed individually): Arabian Nights (1942) White Savage (1943) Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves (1944) Cobra Woman (1944) G*psy Wildcat (1944) Sudan (1945) Tangier (1946) Pirates of Monterey (1947) Wicked City (1949) Portrait of a Killer (1949) The show is available on Spotify, PocketCasts, Breaker, Stitcher, Anchor, Google, Radio Public, and YouTube.

Our guests are the legendary Raqs Media Collective, formed in New Delhi in 1992, by Monica Narula, Jeebesh Bagchi and Shuddhabrata Sengupta. I like to call them intellectuals-at-large, but their production ranges from artistic to curatorial projects, from theoretical to educational works. The collective also co-founded Sarai—the inter-disciplinary and incubatory space at the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies.You'll hear their unique blend of thinking on technologies and media, from surveillance to bureaucratic interfaces as deeply embedded in societal dynamics; and we'll get to explore together how they have been producing knowledge as artists. The tidal changes in image cultures; how digital technologies are intertwined with urban infrastructures; how the poetic is also the political; and ultimately the significance of languages are a few of the things that are lingering in my mind and provoking further thoughts after this conversation.EPISODE NOTES & LINKSBased in New Delhi, Raqs Media Collective comprises three practitioners: Jeebesh Bagchi, Monica Narula, and Shuddhabrata Sengupta. For the past three decades, the Collective has been concerned with urbanism, epistemology, technology, globalization, and the experience of time. Drawing upon critical theory and political philosophy, their work is marked by active inquiry, double-meanings, pluralism, and entanglement. https://www.raqsmediacollective.net/Sarai is among South Asia's most prominent and productive platforms for research and reflection on the transformation of urban space and contemporary realities, especially with regard to cities, data and information, law, and media infrastructures. https://sarai.net/about/Initiated by Ankur: Society for Alternatives in Education, Delhi, and Sarai-CSDS, Delhi in the year 2001 Cybermohalla is a network of dispersed labs for experimentation and exploration among young working-class individuals https://sarai.net/projects/cybermohalla/.The first Cybermohalla took place in LNJP (Lok Nayak Jarai Prakash), an informal settlement in Central Delhi.Parda-darii is a noun in Hindu meaning play of the veil, removing the veil, revealing the truth, and revealment of secrets.Can has written on the design of Cybermohalla Hub, in relation to his ‘Setting a Setting' idea.https://www.academia.edu/5980837/_Setting_and_Remaking_in_Cybermohalla_Hub_eds_Hirsch_N_and_S_Sarda_Berlin_Sternberg_Press_2012Curated by Raqs Media Collective “In the Open or In Stealth” was a group exhibition that has taken place at MACBA in 2018-2019 about the concept of a future in which multiple histories and geographies were placed in dialogue. https://www.macba.cat/en/exhibitions-activities/exhibitions/open-or-stealthThe Walker Art Center is a multidisciplinary contemporary art center in Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States. https://walkerart.org/visitEstablished by Yoshiharu Tsukamoto and Momoyo Kaijima in Tokyo, Atelier Bow-Wow is an architecture firm. http://www.bow-wow.jp/Taken place in Walker Art center in 2003, How Latitudes Become Forms: Art in a Global Age was an exhibition about ways that globalization, or the “new internationalism in art” is affecting visual culture. https://walkerart.org/calendar/2003/how-latitudes-become-forms-art-in-a-global-agHow Latitudes Become Forms has a vintage website that constitutes substantial archival material about the project. http://latitudes.walkerart.org/overview/index.htmlFatwa is a ruling on a point of Islamic law given by a recognized authority.Abhinavagupta (c. 950 – 1016 CE) was a philosopher, mystic, and aesthetician from Kashmir.
