David Butler (1894-1979) directed over a hundred theatrical and television films. In this oral history he reflects over his life and work, from the days of Inceville and DW Griffith to the era of filmed television Westerns and situation comedies. His first directional assignment was High School Hero (1927) for Fox studios. He then helped salvage Fox’s finances with four of Shirley Temple’s most engaging and profitable films starring Will Rogers in the 1930s, and a classic movie about horse racing, Kentucky (1938). After leaving Fox in 1938, Butler directed films for Warner Brothers and other studios with Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, Doris Day, Errol Flynn, Rex Harrison, Alice Faye, Ronald Reagan, Patricia Neal, Kay Kyser, and a host of other musical and comedy stars. One of the best of his films is Thank Your Lucky Stars (1943), with an all-star cast and a lilting score, highlighted by Bette Davis singing and jitterbugging. When Butler switched from theatrical films to television, he directed such popular TV shows as Wagon Train, Buckskin, General Electric Theater, and Leave it to Beaver. Modestly describing himself as a “commercial director” who excelled at completing projects under tight schedules, Butler deserves a place in American film history for his contribution of well-crafted popular films featuring some of the legendary entertainers of the 30s, 40s, and 50s.

Andrew Zimmern, the host of The Travel Channel’s hit series Bizarre Foods, has an extraordinarily well-earned reputation for traveling far and wide to seek out and sample anything and everything that’s consumed as food globally, from cow vein stew in Bolivia and giant flying ants in Uganda to raw camel kidneys in Ethiopia, putrefied shark in blood pudding in Iceland and Wolfgang Puck’s Hunan style rooster balls in Los Angeles. For Zimmern, local cuisine ? bizarre, gross or downright stomach turning as it may be to us — is not simply what’s served at mealtime. It is a primary avenue to discovering what is most authentic ? the bizarre truth ? about cultures everywhere. Having eaten his way around the world over the course of four seasons of Bizarre Foods, Zimmern has now launched Bizarre Worlds, a new series on the Travel Channel, and this, his first book, a chronicle of his journeys as he not only tastes the ?taboo treats? of the world, but delves deep into the cultures and lifestyles of far-flung locales and seeks the most prized of the modern traveler’s goals: The Authentic Experience. Written in the smart, often hilarious voice he uses to narrate his TV shows, Zimmern uses his adventures in ?culinary anthropology? to illustrate such themes as: why visiting local markets can reveal more about destinations than museums; the importance of going to ?the last stop on the subway? ? the most remote area of a place where its essence is most often revealed; the need to seek out and catalog ?the last bottle of coca-cola in the desert,? ie disappearing foods and cultures; the profound differences between dining and eating; and the pleasures of snout to tail, local, fresh and organic food. Zimmern takes readers into the back of a souk in Morocco where locals are eating a whole roasted lamb; along with a conch fisherman in Tobago, who may be the last of his kind; to Mississippi, where he dines on raccoon and possum. There, he writes, “People said, ‘That’s roadkill!’ ‘No it’s not,’ I said. ‘It’s a cultural story.’?Whether it’s a session with an Incan witch doctor in Ecuador who blows fire on him, spits on him, thrashes him with poisonous branches and beats him with a live guinea pig or drinking blood in Uganda and cow urine tonic in India or eating roasted bats on an uninhabited island in Samoa, Zimmern cheerfully celebrates the undiscovered destinations and weird wonders still remaining in our increasingly globalized world.

We live in a time much like the postwar era. A time of arch political conservatism and vast social conformity. A time in which our nation’s leaders question and challenge the patriotism of those who oppose their policies. But before there was Jon Stewart, Al Franken, or Bill Maher, there were Mort Sahl, Stan Freberg, and Lenny Bruce?liberal satirists who, through their wry and scabrous comedic routines, waged war against the political ironies, contradictions, and hypocrisies of their times. Revel with a Cause is their story. Stephen Kercher here provides the first comprehensive look at the satiric humor that flourished in the United States during the 1950s and early 1960s. Focusing on an impressive range of comedy?not just standup comedians of the day but also satirical publications like MAD magazine, improvisational theater groups such as Second City, the motion picture Dr. Strangelove, and TV shows like That Was the Week That Was?Kercher reminds us that the postwar era saw varieties of comic expression that were more challenging and nonconformist than we commonly remember. His history of these comedic luminaries shows that for a sizeable audience of educated, middle-class Americans who shared such liberal views, the period’s satire was a crucial mode of cultural dissent. For such individuals, satire was a vehicle through which concerns over the suppression of civil liberties, Cold War foreign policies, blind social conformity, and our heated racial crisis could be productively addressed. A vibrant and probing look at some of the most influential comedy of mid-twentieth-century America, Revel with a Cause belongs on the short list of essential books for anyone interested in the relationship between American politics and popular culture.
