Lens on Activist Cinema Master The legacy of the late Os- car-nominated documentary film- maker James Blue, a University of Oregon and Jefferson High School graduate regarded as one of the im- portant voices in social activist film- making, gets a close up look with a new film by U of O professor Dan Miller. An early driving force in media arts education, and a catalyst in the formation of regional film arts orga- nizations, Blue is best known for his Cannes Film Festival prizewinning “The Olive Trees of Justice” (1962), about a Frenchman returning to his native Algiers to witness mass ex- ploitation. His other important films remain classics, including “The March” (1964), which chronicled the civil rights march on Washington and the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s fa- mous “I have a dream” speech, and “A Few Notes on Our Food Prob- lem” (1968), about the growing is- sue of hunger around the world. “Citizen Blue: The Life and Art of Cinema Master James Blue” will screen on Thursday, Oct. 19 at 7 p.m. at Whitsell Auditorium, lo- cated in the Portland Art Museum, downtown. Admission is $9 general and $8 for students and seniors.
