I wouldn't suggest it to any one looking for escape fiction. It makes you think. This movie is a good ex ample of 'dark comedy', in which the grotesqueness of our depleting society is conveyed in a light enough tone for us to be able to face it. It parallels with Kurt Vonnagut Jr.'s style, in which a seemingly insane old man is really the only one sane eno"gh to realize how sick and mani pulated we really are. "Network" won four academy a- wards. Not because there were flashy costumes, sensuous love scenes, or bloody gore used to get its point across. Instead, it was successful be cause of the excellent acting that re vealed a crude awakening of reality. "Network" received academy awards for: best actor, Peter Finch; best actress, Faye Dunaway; best support ing actress, Beatrice Straight and best screenplay. It's depressing, but so are most truths about mankind. This movie is a challenge to those who are open-min ded enough to digest the message that "Network" conveys. y Heritage, consisting of Paul and Pete Barkett, performed in concert last Friday at 8 p.m. in the Community Center Mall. The duet, who were well received by listen ers, sang mostly ballads and folk songs. Page 5
