Hollywood's First Movie Has Monument Once Again

The mystery of the missing monument comes to a happy ending

The American Mutoscope and Biograph Company announce the restoration and re-dedication of the monument commemorating the first movie in Hollywood, "In Old California" produced by Biograph in 1910. The film was a Latino melodrama depicting life in 1840's Mexico-occupied California.

The monument was dedicated in May 2004, but less than a year later the three-ton monument disappeared overnight, being found several months later near a garbage dumpster in Hollywood. Since then the monument has been stored by Biograph until arrangements could be made for a re-dedication.

Biograph is the oldest movie company in America, established in 1895. "In Old California" was made in 1910 by Biograph, three years prior to the movie the "Squaw Man" made by Cecil B. DeMille. It was significant because of it being Hollywood's first film, and the subject matter was about the Hispanic settlers in California. The film was directed by movie pioneer D. W. Griffith (pictured), who was location scouting from New York for Biograph.

He discovered this lovely village with beautiful scenery, flower gardens and friendly people, and decided to film many of Biograph's films there, this one being the first.

Since the monuments first dedication, two of Biograph's "Family" passed away. Maryellen Sennett/VP who was western actress and singer in the 1940's and Tommy Bond Sr./VP, actor who was "Butch" on the "Little Rascals" and "Jimmy Olsen" in the original "Superman" serials. Both of which were the aunt and father of Biograph's President/CEO Thomas R. Bond, II.

Biograph's CEO Thomas Bond II says "The re-dedication will now have added meaning since my aunt and father have since passed away." Bond continues, "Many good people put a lot of hard work so this historic film's monument, that this film would finally be recognized. The film's impact on Hollywood and its multi-cultural theme bridges time. It was significant not just being Hollywood's first film, but the subject matter is about the Latinos in early in California".

The re-dedication is scheduled for 2010 on the 100th anniversary of the making of the film at a non-disclosed location in Hollywood, later to be announced by the company.

He became a cattle rustler and later joined a band of rustlers that was led by a man named Francisco Pancho Villa. In one of their many skirmishes with the law, the group was surprised by a group of rurales (mounted police) and Francisco was killed. Doroteo then took command of the gang and also assumed the name of the fallen leader. He may have done this to throw off those who hunted him for the murder of the hacienda owner or he may have done this to insure his authority over the group. Anyway, from that time on it was he who was known as Francisco Pancho Villa.

Pancho Villa was a natural leader and was very successful as a bandit, . He was also involved in more legitimate ventures, including being a contractor on the Copper Canyon railroad.

In 1910, when the Mexican Revolution broke out, Villa was recruited by the revolutionary leader, Abraham Gonzalez. Villa put together an army of armed cowboys and ruffians and became the revolutionary general who led the war in the northern part of Mexico. His charisma and victories made him an idol of the masses.

In 1916, when an American merchant refused to deliver the arms to Villa's army which they had paid him for, Villa entered the United States and raided the town of Columbus, New Mexico. He was pursued by General Black Jack Pershing through the mountains of the State of Chihuahua. Pershing's pursuit of Villa ended in failure, causing him to telegraph back to Washington that Villa is everywhere, but Villa is nowhere.

The war ended in 1920, and many attempts were made on Villa's life . On July 20, 1923, while driving his car through the town on Parral, Chihuahua, he was assasinated.

THIS IS THE PLACE PANCHO VILLA WAS BORN.

.       The resulting article that ran on the front page of the New York Tribune on Sunday, August 28, 1921 entitled "A Visit to Villa, A Bad Man Not So Bad" earned Treadwell international notoriety. Recognized for her expertise on the people and politics of Mexico, she would go on to write a series of articles on the topic of Mexican affairs. At that time Mexico was still reeling from a bloody Revolution that saw the ousting of the progressive but tyrannical regime of Porfirio Diaz and three more successive regimes. Treadwell's sympathetic treatment of Mexican affairs allowed her to access people and information that were unavailable to most. As a result, Sophie Treadwell brought to her readership enhanced understanding of important people and events in Mexico; most notably that of Francisco Villa. That an American woman received so much respect and was able to accomplish so much in a country which at the time was generally resentful of Americans as well as totally male dominated attests to the ambitiousness and cultural sensitivity of this noteworthy writer of fact and fiction.

NEW'S ZAPATA REVOLUTION 1910 FROM THE SOUTH OF MEXICO.

1879- 1919 ZAPATA

From North to South: Zapata Vive!

Although the Mexican media was focused on the occupation of the nation's
congressional tribunal April 10 by opposition legislators protesting the
Calderon administration's proposed PEMEX oil company reform, other events
of national significance unfolded on the 89th anniversary of the
assassination of Mexican revolutionary leader Emiliano Zapata. Across
rural and urban Mexico, farmers and their allies held protests, conducted
highway blockades, convened meetings and staged marches to vent their
anger over current agricultural and other policies.

"If we were to deliver a report to General Zapata today, we could say that
poverty in the countryside continues, that migration to the US grows
daily and that the agricultural branches of production are not
profitable," said Federico Valle Vaquera, national director of the CIOAC
rural advocacy organization.

Involving thousands of people, and encompassing political forces ranging
from the revolutionary left to the centrist National Campesino
Confederation, numerous activities were reported in the states of
Chihuahua, Sonora, Durango, Guerrero, Veracruz, and Chiapas, among other
places. In Chiapas, members of the National Struggle Front for Socialism
blockaded an international bridge connecting Mexico to Guatemala.

In the border city of Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, hundreds turned out for a
march to protest the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), social
security and energy reform initiatives, the Lomas de Poleo land conflict,
and the presence of the Mexican army in the border city.

Ciudad Juarez's El Diario newspaper ran a photograph that showed a Mexican
soldier with a camera allegedly snapping pictures of protestors and
journalists from El Diario and TV Azteca.

Demonstrators also blasted last month's assassination of farm leader
Armando Villareal Martha and the recent arrests of social activists
Cipriana Jurado and Carlos Chavez. Attending the event, Jurado reported
that charges against her for allegedly participating in the blockade of an
international bridge in Ciudad Juarez in 2005 had been dropped.

While Zapata anniversary protests are nothing new in Mexico, a noteworthy
development in this year's actions was thelinkage between agricultural,
water and energy issues. In the northern border state of Sonora, for
instance, forty farmers blockaded the state office of the federal Ministry
of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries to protest what they said were
excessive electricity and water rates. In the coffee-producing highlands
of Veracruz, an estimated 500 growers demanded $150 million in government
subsidies as an answer to 80 percent price hikes for petrochemical-based
fertilizers.

Soaring fertilizer prices also prompted farmers in Guerrero to seize state
and federal agricultural agency offices and blockade for one hour the
Highway of the Sun that connects Mexico City to the tourist resort of
Acapulco.

Small growers in the indigenous La Montana region of Guerrero have
complained of fertilizer price hikes in the neighborhood of 200 to 300
percent in recent months. Schooled in the practices of the Green
Revolution, most Mexican farmers still rely on petrochemical-based
fertilizers to grow their crops.

Agriculture and energy was a theme picked up by Mexican Agriculture
Minister Alberto Cardenas yesterday. Speaking at an official Zapata
anniversary ceremony in the state of Morelos, Cardenas implied a direct
relationship between improvement in the rural economy and passage of the
Calderon Administration's controversial energy reform package in the
Mexican Congress.

"(Rural Mexico) can't be removed from the issues related to the energy
reform," Cardenas said. "We can't bet on populism or on deceit," Cardenas
added in an indirect poke at opposition leader Andres Manuel Lopez
Obrador's movement against the privatization PEMEX.

In recent weeks, the heated debate over PEMEX has diverted public
attention away from Mexico's ongoing rural crisis, which resurfaced as a
pressing national issue in the wake of the mass farmer protests against
NAFTA earlier this year. Negotiations between farm groups and the Calderon
Administration have since broken down. To the chagrin of many farmers,
Calderon administration officials insist that renegotiating NAFTA is off
the table. Consequently, more rural protests are almost certain in the
weeks and months ahead. It remains to be seen to what degree the
anti-NAFTA movement will coalesce with the campaign against the
privatization of PEMEX.
