Earning their chops in medicine shows and with minstrel troupes in the late 1890s, brothers Frank and Bert Leighton wrote and/or arranged many ragtime pieces for use in vaudeville.Among their work was a 1912 version of “Frankie and Johnny,” penned with partner Ren Shields, that would set the tone for many future renditions of the song, including a monster hit a decade and half later for Charlie Poole and his North Carolina Ramblers.The song that Poole and his pals released as “Leaving Home” on Columbia Records in May 1927 already was pretty well known by musicians of the day.For instance, on the same label in the same year, popular band leader Ted Lewis recorded the same song with the title "Frankie and Johnny: You'll Miss Me in the Days to Come.” Lewis included only the chorus and not the verses.But it was a half dozen years before that that the first American recording of “Frankie and Johnny” was made by New Orleans-born Al Bernard, one of the first white singers to record blues tunes. (W.C. Handy credited Bernard, in fact, with helping his own career by recording a number of his songs, notably “St. Louis Blues.”)Whew! That's a lot of intersecting stories here, but let's roll it back to Charlie Poole and the Leighton boys. Kinney Rorer, in his seminal biography Rambling Blues: the Life & Songs of Charlie Poole, notes that the banjoist closely follows the version of “Leaving Home” that the Leighton brothers created, though there are some differences in Charlie's chorus.About the LeightonsNow, no one knows just how Poole learned that rendition, but the Leightons were pretty influential. Among the ragtime pieces they wrote was "There's A Dark Man Coming With A Bundle” and "Far Away in Honolulu (They've got the tango craze).” Their most memorable and influential song was "Steamboat Bill" in 1910, a parody of best-selling “Ballad of Casey Jones,” which had itself been based on a song from the Leightons' vaudeville routine. Arthur Collins recorded “Steamboat Bill” in 1911, which would inspire Charles Reisner to write a movie for comedian Buster Keaton called “Steamboat Bill Jr.,” which released as a silent film in 1928.That same year, Walt Disney found inspiration in the movie and in the song to create the first synchronized cartoon with sound, Steamboat Willie.Back to Johnny and His Murderous MistressAll the Frankie and Johnny variations were based on an actual murder. Here are the facts of the case:At 2 in the morning of Oct. 15, 1899, at an apartment building located at 212 Targee Street in St. Louis, 22-year-old Frankie Baker encountered her 17-year-old lover Allen (Albert) Britt as he stumbled back from a cakewalk in the company of a prostitute named Nelly Bly. Albert and Nellie had just won a prize in a slow-dancing contest, but Frankie didn't feel like celebrating. On the contrary, she felt like shooting her lover in the stomach, which she did. Albert died in City Hospital four days later.At trial, Frankie pleaded self-defense at her trial — she claimed Britt had attacked her with a knife prior to the shooting — and she was found not guilty.Weeks after the murder, St. Louis songwriter Bill Dooley composed “Frankie Killed Allen,” a tune that gained some currency. The first published version appeared in 1904, credited to Hughie Cannon (also remembered for his better-known composition “Won't You Come Home Bill Bailey”).That brings up to 1912 and the Frank and Bert Leighton version entitled “Frankie and Johnny” (because, well, “Johnny” apparently flowed better than “Allen” or “Albert”). Since then, there have been more than 250 versions of “Frankie and Johnny” recorded, not to mention several film adaptation over the years.Our Take on the TuneWhen Jack Nuckols switches from drums to fiddle, it often brings back lots of old memories of music parties 50 years ago. This is another song that Dave Peyton, Joe Dobbs and Charlie Bowen first heard at those parties when the good old Kentucky Foothill Ramblers, led by H. David Holbrook, could play a whole evening full of string band songs from the 1920s and ‘30s.This track is from last week's Flood affair, when the group's old band mate Paul Martin and his mandolin sat in with current Floodsters Charlie and Jack, Danny Cox, Randy Hamilton and Sam St. Clair.

After his “blank check” for THE GENERAL bounced, Buster Keaton found himself creatively and financially shackled. Thus, 1927's COLLEGE lands on the lesser end of the quality spectrum (not to mention a very difficult watch with Buster putting on blackface for a scene - yikes). But, his follow-up STEAMBOAT BILL, JR. features some of the most memorable and dangerous stunts of Keaton's career, and acts as a beautiful send-off to his period as a self-sufficient filmmaker. The wonderful John Hodgman joins us to chat about both films and his life-long love of Buster. Plus - as always with a Hodgman episode - we go down several delightful rabbit holes: Doctor Who, beans, Goofy's “George Geef” period, large pants, and more!

This episode, we decided to give voice to the voiceless by spotlighting two sizable monuments in the silent film canon: Cabiria and Steamboat Bill, Jr. First things first though...our Blue Plate Special broods over two moody genre flicks with 1994's The Crow and new release Infinity Pool. Upon inspecting cinema's earliest days, we discuss the strained theatrics of Cabiria, the slight hilarity of Steamboat Bill, Jr., and the clearly observable influence both movies had on not only their respective genres but on the development of cinema writ large.

Über richtig gute Fußballer redet man in der Branche schon, wenn sie gerade mal 13 oder 14 Jahre jung sind. Kai Havertz war so einer. Er war der jüngste Profi, der jemals für Bayer Leverkusen auflief, der jüngste Bayer-Torschütze aller Zeiten und der jüngste Bundesligaspieler mit 100 Einsätzen. Nun ist Havertz 22 Jahre alt, spielt beim FC Chelsea und ist einer der herausragendsten deutschen Fußballer der Gegenwart. In der vierten Folge des Fußballpodcasts "Kicken kann er" gehen die Sportredakteure Oliver Fritsch und Fabian Scheler daher den Fragen nach, wohin sein Weg ihn noch führen wird, welche Fähigkeiten ihn so stark machen und warum er der entscheidende Spieler des kommenden Fußballjahrzehnts sein wird. Sein bisher wichtigstes Tor, der Siegtreffer für Chelsea im Champions League Finale 2021, ist dabei nur eine der vielen beispielhaften Szenen: Kai Havertz geht dahin, wo es wehtut. Er bekleidet die Rolle des Stürmers, lässt sich ins offensive Mittelfeld fallen und ist auch auf den Flügeln zu finden. Muss sich ein Fußballer irgendwann spezialisieren oder ist Havertz der "Pionier einer ganz neuen Art, offensiv zu spielen", wie Oliver Fritsch sagt? Er erkennt in Havertz das Beste aus Thomas Müller und Mesut Özil. Außerdem thematisieren die Hosts die Fragen, ob Havertz Kapitän der deutschen Nationalmannschaft werden sollte, warum die Özil-Gefahr besteht und wie schwer es für einen jungen, talentierten Spieler ist, wenn er mitten in einer Pandemie in die anspruchsvollste Liga der Welt, die Premier League, wechselt. Aus London berichtet der Fußballpodcaster Barry Glendenning vom "Guardian", wie Havertz in England gesehen wird und warum eine einzige Szene seine Popularität verbessert hat. Sie erreichen uns unter fussball@zeit.de. "Kicken kann er" wird auch beim großen Podcast-Festival von ZEIT ONLINE und ZEIT am 11. Juni eine Folge live aufnehmen.

Scrubbed of nostalgia, 1986's "Top Gun" is, let's be honest, a big slab of '80s cheese. But there's that star-making turn by Tom Cruise; some flashy direction from Tony Scott; the rousing, synth-heavy score; and a memorable supporting cast led by the never more intense Val "Iceman" Kilmer. Could TOP GUN: MAVERICK, the long in the works sequel, justify its return? Adam comes to the sequel as a "Top Gun" fanboy, with the '86 original a seminal film of his bike-riding preadolescence. Josh, though, never really took to the film that he's described as a "locker room movie." Which makes their review of the new film something of a surprise, with Josh (mostly) joining the chorus of praise that has so far greeted the film and Adam of all people calling the film "131 minutes of fan service where the fan isn't really served until the last 30.” Take my breath away, indeed. Plus, the Buster Keaton Marathon continues with Josh's favorite film of the series, 1927's STEAMBOAT BILL, JR, and a Golden Brick nomination for HIT THE ROAD, from director Panah Panahi. 0:00 - Billboard 1:47 - Review: "Top Gun: Maverick" 27:54 - Golden Brickspotting: "Hit the Road" 33:12 - Next Week / Notes 40:57 - Massacre Theatre 46:09 - Buster Keaton #5: "Steamboat Bill, Jr." 1:00:41 - Outro Learn more about your ad choices.

On this day in 1928, Buster Keaton's silent-era masterpiece Steamboat Bill, Jr. premiered at the Rialto Theatre in New York City. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In "Buster Keaton: A Filmmaker's Life," author James Curtis chronicles the silent star's private life and pictures, including The General, One Week, The Navigator and Steamboat Bill, Jr. But it's Keaton's days as a performer that captivated me so we begin the episode with tales from the vaudeville stage, including details about which foot Buster's father preferred to kick him with.
This week on the Film at Lincoln Center podcast, we're featuring a talk from Camera Man: Dana Stevens on Buster Keaton, a recent FLC event celebrating the new book from author and Slate film critic Dana Stevens, moderated by writer Imogen Sara Smith and FLC Programming Assistant Maddie Whittle. The conversation ranged from the two authors' love of Buster Keaton, the evolution of the filmmaker's filmography, the perception of masculinity in Charles Reisner's Steamboat Bill, Jr., and the legacy of Keaton in Hollywood and beyond. Dana Stevens's new book Camera Man: Buster Keaton, the Dawn of Cinema, and the Invention of the Twentieth Century and Imogen Sara Smith's Buster Keaton: The Persistence of Comedy are both available for purchase.

“It all started with a mouse,” Disney liked to say. But in reality, it all started with music. Isaiah gives a survey of music history, highlighting especially American music and the influence of Rag-time, as we try to understand why Disney picked Steamboat Bill as Mickey’s first melody.
In Buster Keaton's last independent film for United Artists before moving on to MGM, this silent comedy is known for what might be considered Keaton's most famous film stunt: The facade of an entire house falling on top of him as he stands in the perfect spot to pass through the open attic window without being flattened. The story involves the tale of an educated, effeminate, simple-minded son who ultimately is transformed and triumphant when he assists and impresses his burly, hard-working Mississippi steamboat captain father ("Steamboat Bill") in combating the threatening efforts of a rival tycoon (and typhoon) to take over the Mississippi steamboat business in the South - also win over the business rival's daughter. In 2016, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress. Hosted by YiFeng, Lily and Bob. Recorded July 1, 2020

Brian Cremins' book Captain Marvel and the Art of Nostalgia (University Press of Mississippi, 2017) explores the history of Billy Batson, a boy who met a wizard that allowed him to transform into a superhero. When Billy says, “Shazam!” he becomes Captain Marvel. Cremins explores the history of artist C.C. Beck and writer Otto Binder’s Captain Marvel comic book character who outsold Superman comics in the 1940s. Examining the Golden Age of comics in the United States, Cremins addresses the careers of Beck and Binder, Captain Marvel, and the ways in which they influenced comic fandom in the 1960s. Focusing on the relationship between comics and nostalgia, Cremins examines the origins of Billy Batson and Captain Marvel. Captain Marvel and the Art of Nostalgia details the lives of Beck and Binder, the lawsuit filed against Fawcett Comics that eventually ended Captain Marvel and Fawcett Comics, and the role of World War II and the nostalgia of American soldiers and civilians in Captain Marvel’s popularity. He also investigates the complicated histories of characters such as Mr. Tawny, the talking tiger that adapts to American society and befriends Captain Marvel, and Steamboat Bill, the African American food truck owner who helps Captain Marvel catch a group of criminals and in return is given a job by Billy Batson. Ending with the influence of comic fanzines of the 1960s on reigniting interest in Beck and Binder as well as Captain Marvel, Cremins examines the impact of comics on memory and American popular culture. Rebekah Buchanan is an Assistant Professor of English at Western Illinois University. Her work examines the role of narrative–both analog and digitalin peoples lives. She is interested in how personal narratives produced in alternative spaces create sites that challenge traditionally accepted public narratives. She researches zines, zine writers and the influence of music subcultures and fandom on writers and narratives.

Have you heard of this podcast called Baconsale? It's this cool, out-of-the-way podcast not many people know about. Anyway, Kent, Joel and Jacob -- totally obscure guys -- are the hosts and, in this episode, they're discussing films you've probably never heard of. Well, they're hoping you've never heard of them, because they're each recommending four films to you. Why four? Because three and five are so mainstream. Below are the movies they recommend in the episode. If you want to know why they think you would enjoy these films, you'll have to press play and listen.

Gary and Roscoe wrap up 2016 - and good riddance to a challenging year - with an episode of year-end theater going and a few fun lists. First we revisit Hamilton and our recent viewing of the new Chicago production. From our Booth One perspective in the 11th row at the PrivateBank Theatre, this sit-down company is hands down as dynamic, entertaining and exciting as the Broadway show we saw in New York in May. It's not just a traveling road company - the show's creators have put together a virtual replica of the Broadway smash and re-produced one of the great theatrical experiences of a lifetime. Yes, ticket prices are steep and seats are hard to come by, but it's worth every penny and effort to get into this show. Take the time to play the lottery. 'Nuf said.... Our first year-end list is President Obama's final Presidential Medal of Freedom recipients: Alphabetically, they are Kareem Abdul-Jabaar, Ellen DeGeneres, Robert DeNiro, Bill and Melinda Gates, Frank Gehry, Tom Hanks, Michael Jordan, Maya Lin, Lorne Michaels, Newton Minow, Robert Redford, Diana Ross, Vin Scully, Bruce Springsteen, and Cicely Tyson. A special note is made about Newt Minow, close friend of our producer and a Chicago native, who famously referred to television as a "vast wasteland". Audra McDonald's pregnancy was a surprise. But was it an accident, an illness or neither? We discuss the lawsuit brought by the producers of the marvelous Shuffle Along, Or the Making of the Musical Sensation of 1921 and All That Followed against Lloyds of London, claiming damages of more than $12 million. Ms. McDonald's absence from the show for maternity leave prompted not only the show's early closing, but earlier health issues forced her to miss some preview performances. Ms. McDonald, who has won six Tony awards, was the show's biggest star. Lloyd's has denied the claims, arguing that the pregnancy "and the associated medical conditions were neither an 'accident' nor an 'illness'," criteria cited in the original $14 million insurance policy. Stand by for more on this unprecedented story... Pray. Eat raw eggs. Stay single. Those are the keys to a long life, according to Emma Morano, the world's oldest person. Emma celebrated her 117th birthday this week, and is a national treasure in her native Italy, where her birthday celebration was broadcast on live state television. After the party, Morano took a well-deserved nap. God Bless, Emma. Our next list is of Golden Globe Award nominees, as Gary puts Roscoe in the hot seat for predicting the winners of the January 8 ceremony. His picks: Manchester By the Sea and La La Land for Best Motion Pictures; Denzel, Natalie Portman, Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling in the Best Acting categories. Continuing our movie musical theme, Gary tells about a new Marc Platt project based on the book "Everything's Coming Up Profits: The Golden Age of Industrial Musicals".The source book focuses on corporate musicals made by the hundreds from the 1950s to the early 1980s by companies like Coca-Cola, Westinghouse and Chevrolet. Mostly played at business meetings and conventions, they were created by the top writing talent of the day, including Kander and Ebb. This original movie musical, featuring Kristen Wiig and Will Farrell, will have a score by Marc Shaiman and Scott Whitman of Harispray and Smash fame. Back to our lists - the Library of Congress as announced 25 new films added to the National Film Registry, recognized in the National Film Preservation Board's view as "culturally, historically and aesthetically significant."
