Forum to show film mini-festivals
Campuses are traditional havens for film
buffs. It seems as if each year every campus
organization decides to raise money by showing
films.
This year is no different with several Univer
sity groups out in full film force.
Leading the pack is a perennial favorite, the
Cultural Forum. The CF shows more films than
any other group; one every Friday, Saturday and
Sunday during official school weeks.
The CF is different from most film organiza
tions in that its function is strictly to show films;
all it has to do is break even. Thus mixed in
amongst the box office favorites like
“Flashdance” and “The Big Chill” will be a large
selection of foreign films and obscure features,
such as Werner Herzog’s “Every Man For
Himself” and the little-known British film
"Scum.”
This year’s schedule also includes a nice sur
prise — mini-festivals.
Tentatively planned for this year are a run of
the newly re-released Hitchcock classics; a string
of Clint Eastwood spaghetti westerns (including
the classic “Man With No Name” trilogy); and a
small collection of Woody Allen comedies. All
three mini-festivals will play on Sunday nights.
Another returning favorite film-showing
group is the Student Campaign for Disarmament.
It shows films as fundraisers, but at the same time
manages to provide a solid line-up. Last year the
group featured a wonderful Bogey festival ...
this year is still open.
The ASUO offers the CF competition for the
eclectic. Though their fall schedule is fairly
predictable (“Animal House” and “The
Graduate” again, and “Psycho.") last year they
came up with “Reefer Madness” and “The Rocky
and Bullwinkle Film Festival.” This year the
ASUO can be counted on to bring in some
surprises.
Among the new groups this year is Catalyst, a
newly-formed organization aimed at promoting
progressive social change. This ambitious project
is being attempted without campus funding, and
a film series is but one money-making venture.
Catalyst's selection for the coming term is
surprisingly diverse, including both campus
favorites (“Harold and Maude"), film classics
(“The Wizard of Qz”), and Ronnie Reagan B
movie classics (“Hellcats of the Navy,” featuring
First Lady Nancy).
Ticket prices for campus films are usually
$1.50 for general admission; showings are usual
ly in 180 PLC, 150 Geology, and 177 Lawrence.
Most groups publish a complete term’s
schedule at the beginning of each term. The com
ing week's films are often advertised on bulletin
boards around campus, as well as in the Emerald
classifieds.
