La musique en accompagnement du film ce soir est constituée d’œuvres du répertoire symphonique interprétées par l’orchestre et d’improvisations jazz de la pianiste Lorraine Desmarais. / The music accompanying tonight’s screening is symphonic repertoire performed by the Orchestra and jazz improvisations by pianist Lorraine Desmarais. SYNOPSIS Ce court métrage de fiction est l’un des derniers films de la très longue carrière du comédien Buster Keaton. Dans The Railrodder, celui-ci traverse le Canada d’est en ouest à bord d’une draisine. Faisant preuve de son sens du burlesque légendaire, Keaton se rend ainsi jusqu’en Colombie-Britannique, nous montrant au passage des scènes typiquement canadiennes. Film sans paroles. This short film from director Gerald Potterton (Heavy Metal) stars Buster Keaton in one of the last films of his long career. As “the railrodder”, Keaton crosses Canada from east to west on a railway track speeder. True to Keaton’s genre, the film is full of sight gags as our protagonist putt-putts his way to British Columbia. Not a word is spoken throughout, and Keaton is as spry and ingenious at fetching laughs as he was in the old days of the silent slapsticks.

  • NORMAN MCLAREN RETROSPECTIVE at Moma
    The Museum of Modern Art 50th Anniversary NO. 7 no FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NORMAN MCLAREN RETROSPECTIVE AT MoMA As part of NATIONAL FILM BOARD OF CANADA: A RETROSPECTIVE, Norman McLaren, master animator and founder of the Board's an­ imation unit in 1941, will be honored with a retrospective of virtually all the films he made at NFBC. Part One of MoMA's NFBC Retrospective, ANIMATION, runs from January 22 through February 16, and presents a survey of 150 animated films. Five programs of the extraordinary and influential work of Norman McLaren will be presented from February 12 through 16. "Animation came to the National Film Board of Canada in 1941 with the person of Norman McLaren. In 1943, after having recruited George Dunning, Jim MacKay and Grant Munro, it was McLaren who was put in charge of the first animation workshop. The earliest films were craftsmanlike, having a more utilitarian than aesthetic character. After the war the time of the artist came about. The spirit and goals of the animation unit changed; the styles and techniques became more and more refined leading to today's sophisticated animation." —Louise Beaudet, Head of Animation Department, Cinematheque quebecoise, Montreal "Norman McLaren (Stirling, Scotland, 1914) completed his first abstract films in 1933 while a student at the Glasgow School of Art, Here he attracted the attention of John Grierson, who invited the young man upon graduation to make promotional films for the General Post Office in London. McLaren worked for the GPO from 1936 until 1939 when, at the onset of war, he moved to New York.

  • The St Andrews Film Society
    http://cinemastandrews.org.uk | Centre for Film Studies | University of St Andrews The St Andrews Film Society Founded in October 1935 with an initial intake of 250 members, the Dundee and St Andrews Film Society would quickly establish itself as one of the foremost film societies in Scotland. Its first season saw the screening of four film programmes, with screenings held in the afternoon in St Andrews and then in Dundee in the evening. Films were transported by car and ferry across the Firth of Tay. By 1941 the Dundee and St Andrews Film Society was reportedly ‘the largest active film society in the country’ with around 700 paying patrons. The society now contributed to the wartime effort by inviting members of the armed forces to attend screenings. As the society continued to grow, plans were announced to separate from Dundee and two years after the conclusion of war, the St Andrews Film Society convened its first session. By 1950, membership for St Andrews was recorded at 650. The Society was a well-established part of the town by the 1960s and the society’s committee included prominent local residents, such as J.K. Robertson (Society Secretary and Editor of the St Andrews Citizen). In 1962-1963 the film society’s numbers breached the 1000 mark for the first time. This was a feat that the society’s Chairman J. R. Gray described as ‘extremely encouraging at a time when other societies were facing reduced membership and financial difficulties’. By 1964-65 membership was ‘limited to 1025’, giving some indication of the continued level of interest in the town.
