Seminars To Encourage Dialogue A series of monthly discussion seminars between student film makers and members of Cinema Circulus will be sponsored by the group's Board, according to Tichi Wilkerson Miles, Vice Presi dent of Cinema Circulus. The decision to conduct these meetings was the result of an exploration on the part of the Board and of students who had met with Mrs. Miles in order to find more meaningful ways of bringing together students and professionals. "We hope that members of Cinema Circulus will volunteer to attend these late-afternoon dinners and evening viewings of stu dent film," Mrs. Miles stated. "It was the Board's decision to turn the tables about and ask the students to show their material for criticism rather than have them sit back and view the work of professionals." "We are hoping that during the three months we try this we will have seven or eight professionals and an equal number of students at each of the seminar sessions ." Mrs. Miles explained PRESENTATION - Jack L. Warner, seen last May 5, when he pledged $1. 5 million toward the construction of the Ann and Jack L. Warner Hall of that the Board would not want to call upon individual members Cinema , a multi-story structure which will house USC 's Division of Cinema. of Cinema Circulus more than once a year, and she asked that The Hall of Cinema will be part of the planned $4.4 million Center for the all members interested in participating in the seminar program Performing Arts at USC. write her directly so that their names can be placed on a working list. "The real aim of the program is not only to let the young Wise Calls for Revolving Fund film -makers have the advantage of calling on the experience of Robert Wise, President of Cinema Circulus, has called for a older professionals, but for both groups to get to know each revolving fund to assist students in the completion of films which other, and for the members of Cinema Circulus to better under they have already begun. Citing the cancellation of American stand what young people are doing, how they are thinking, and Film Institute grants for the making of small films, Mr. Wise has what they believe they want from film and film -making." asked that Cinema Circulus step into the breach to assist USC Cinema Division students, who in the past often have been re The Board agreed that a special committee should be created cipients of AFI small film grants. to coordinate the seminars. It is expected that the first such program will take place in late October. Dr. Bernard Kantor, "The best way we can do this," Wise told the Cinema Circulus Chairman of the Cinema Division, agreed to arrange the dinner Board, " is to establish an annual revolving fund of $2,500 from which students can draw up to $200 to complete films which at the USC Faculty Center or at a nearby restaurant where films might not otherwise be completed ." Wise announced the addition could be screened . However, it was agreed upon by the Board of $500 to his Cinema Circulus contribution for this purpose . that a more central location could be chosen at a later date if it were desired. "I hope other members of the organization will join me in contributing to this fund and as soon as it reaches its goal, the monies will be made available to students." Continuing Officers, Board Members Wise suggested to the Board that the grants not be made out right, but that the students who receive the monies return them At its annual meeting in June, the Board of Cinema Circulus to the fund when they can afford to do so. "We are counting voted to continue its present membership of twenty-two. The on the growth of both the Cinema Division and Cinema Circulus Board further requested and received the consent of the Cinema and, obviously, some of this will come from the young people we Circulus officers to serve in their positions an additional year: help along the way. " Robert Wise as President, Tichi Wilkerson Miles as Vice President, Wise has asked the Executive Committee of Cinema Circulus AI Walker as Secretary, and Stanley Musgrove as Delegate-at to establish a committee to screen student requests for small large. film grants. One of World's Largest Film Collections Given to Cinema Division by Lustgarten One of the world's largest collections of motion picture story and production still photos has been given to the Division of Cinema by Edward Lustgarten, prominent California real estate investor and a collector of Americana . Dating back to about 1910, the Lustgarten collection includes some 650,000 8x10-inch prints and nearly 20,000 original negatives, all catalogued and filed in some 200 packing containers. Included in the gift is a set of Film Daily Yearbook, dating back to 1920. Conservative value of the gift has been placed at $350,000. The Lustgarten collection eventually will be placed with other highly valuable collections in the Archive of Performing Arts, a library which will be a part of the planned Center for Performing Arts. Acquired some years ago by Mr. Lustgarten to prevent its being broken up, the original collection was augmented by the THE CINEMOBILE - A rolling studio on wheels was recently demonstrated by its developer, USC alumnus and Cinema Circulus member, Fouad Said, purchase of some 20 smaller collections in the past year .

Global shooting for the "I Spy" television se ri es was made economically feasible by Said 's new concept in motion Mr. Lustgarten explained, "I felt the collection could best serve picture production. as a research tool in the hands of those who know and appreciate its value. " New Dean, Faculty, Stall Join ·ro Make Plans lor Center of Performing Arts Dr . Grant Beglarian, newly appointed Dean of the School of Performing Arts, has begun working with the faculty and staff of the Division of Cinema in the planning of the new Performing Arts Center. An announcement last spring by Jack Warner, USC Trustee and Cinema Circulus member, of a $1,500,00 donation for a new Cinema Center was quickly followed by the announcement of gifts from two other members of the USC Board of Trustees - Mrs. Anna Bing Arnold's offer to finance an 800-seat theater, and a substan tial sum from Mrs. Blanche Seaver to build the School of Music portion of the Performing Arts complex . "We hope to break ground within twelve months," Dean Be glarian said, "and with the help of Dr. Kantor, his staff, and Cinema Circulus, we should be able to create something new and exciting in the way of a center where Cinema will assume a large place in Performing Arts."

P~ior to the ba~quet the Board of Directors held its regular meetmg. Student f1lms were shown after dinner: Passing lane by Matthew Robbins, The Great Walled City of Xan by Hal Bar ~ood, and And Then There Was None by Lloyd Steele. All three films had been made by students helped with Cinema Circulus funds, and according to Dr. Kantor, the audience that had financed them showed general approval.

Cinema Circulus Newsletter

Seminars To Encourage Dialogue A series of monthly discussion seminars between student film makers and members of Cinema Circulus will be sponsored by the group's Board, according to Tichi Wilkerson Miles, Vice Presi dent of Cinema Circulus. The decision to conduct these meetings was the result of an exploration on the part of the Board and of students who had met with Mrs. Miles in order to find more meaningful ways of bringing together students and professionals . "We hope that members of Cinema Circulus will volunteer to attend these late-afternoon dinners and evening viewings of stu dent film," Mrs. Miles stated. "It was the Board's decision to turn the tables about and ask the students to show their material for criticism rather than have them sit back and view the work of professionals." "We are hoping that during the three months we try this we will have seven or eight professionals and an equal number of students at each of the seminar sessions." Mrs. Miles explained PRESENTATION - Jack L. Warner, seen last May 5, when he pledged $1.5 million toward the construction of the Ann and Jack L. Warner Hall of that the Board would not want to call upon individual members Cinema , a multi-story structure which will house USC's Division of Cinema. of Cinema Circulus more than once a year, and she asked that The Hall of Cinema will be part of the planned $4.4 million Center for the all members interested in participating in the seminar program Performing Arts at USC . write her directly so that their names can be placed on a working list. "The real aim of the program is not only to let the young Wise Calls for Revolving Fund film-makers have the advantage of calling on the experience of Robert Wise, President of Cinema Circulus, has called for a older professionals, but for both groups to get to know each revolving fund to assist students in the completion of films which other, and for the members of Cinema Circulus to better under they have already begun. Citing the cancellation of American stand what young people are doing, how they are thinking, and Film Institute grants for the making of small films, Mr. Wise has what they believe they want from film and film -making." asked that Cinema Circulus step into the breach to assist USC Cinema Division students, who in the past often have been re The Board agreed that a special committee should be created cipients of AFI small film grants. to coordinate the seminars. It is expected that the first such program will take place in late October. Dr. Bernard Kantor, "The best way we can do this, " Wise told the Cinema Circulus Chairman of the Cinema Division, agreed to arrange the dinner Board, "is to establish an annual revolving fund of $2,500 from which students can draw up to $200 to complete films which at the USC Faculty Center or at a nearby restaurant where films might not otherwise be completed." Wise announced the addition could be screened. However, it was agreed upon by the Board of $500 to his Cinema Circulus contribution for this purpose . that a more central location could be chosen at a later date if it were desired. "I hope other members of the organization will join me in contributing to this fund and as soon as it reaches its goal, the monies will be made available to students." Continuing Officers, Board Members Wise suggested to the Board that the grants not be made out right, but that the students who receive the monies return them At its annual meeting in June, the Board of Cinema Circulus to the fund when they can afford to do so. "We are counting voted to continue its present membership of twenty-two. The on the growth of both the Cinema Division and Cinema Circulus Board further requested and received the consent of the Cinema and, obviously, some of this will come from the young people we Circulus officers to serve in their positions an additional year: help along the way." Robert Wise as President, Tichi Wilkerson Miles as Vice President, Wise has asked the Executive Committee of Cinema Circulus AI Walker as Secreta ry, and Stanley Musgrove as Delegate-at to establish a committee to screen student requests for small large. film grants. One of World's Largest Film Collections Given to Cinema Division by Lustgarten One of the world's largest collections of motion picture story and production still photos has been given to the Division of Cinema by Edward Lustgarten, prominent California real estate investor and a collector of Americana . Dating back to about 1910, the Lustgarten collection includes some 650,000 8x10-inch prints and nearly 20,000 ori~inal negatives, all catalogued and filed in some 200 packing contamers . Included in the gift is a set of Film Daily Yearbook, dating back to 1920. Conservative value of the gift has been placed at $350,000. The Lustgarten collection eventually will be placed with other highly valuable collections in the Archive of Performing Arts, a library which will be a part of the plannea Center for Performing Arts . Acquired some years ago by Mr. Lustgarten to prevent its being broken up, the original collection was augmented by the THE CINEMOBILE - A rolling studio on wheels was recently demonstrated by its developer, USC alumnus and Cinema Circulus member, Fouad Said, purchase of some 20 smaller collections in the past year. The for the Division of Cinema's graduate seminar in motion picture business. old movie stills picture the cinema greats of the period 1910- Said (seen just behind the door), combined everything necessary to shoot 1950. Actors, directors, producers, cameramen, and others are a film and installed it in the lSV2-foot van .

Global shooting for the " I Spy " television series was made economically feasible by Said 's ne'(' concept in motion Mr. Lustgarten explained, "I felt the collection could best serve picture production . as a research tool in the hands of those who know and appreciate its value." New Dean, Faculty, Staff Join To Make Plans lor Center of Performing Arts Dr. Grant Beglarian, newly appointed Dean of the School of Performing Arts, has begun working with the faculty and staff of the Division of Cinema in the planning of the new Performing Arts Center. An announcement last spring by Jack Warner, USC Trustee and Cinema Circulus member, of a $1,500,00 donation for a new Cinema Center was quickly followed by the announcement of gifts from two other members of the USC Board of Trustees - Mrs. Anna Bing Arnold's offer to finance an 800-seat theater, and a substan tial sum from Mrs. Blanche Seaver to build the School of Music portion of the Performing Arts complex. "We hope to break ground within twelve months, " Dean Be glarian said, "and with the help of Dr. Kantor, his staff, and Cinema Circulus, we should be able to create something new and exciting in the way of a center where Cinema will assume a large p!ace in Performing Arts."

1969 THE IDEA OF A FILM

Jeremiah McGuire

~ . For the production world of "The Graduate," "Petulia," specious TV documentaries, and congressional investigations into sex and violence on the ''American" screen, the academic position of Philosophy, with a course number and an abstracted teacher mumbling over textbook concepts of "ideas" and "values," appears irrelevant to many young film students. And of course, for the students' technical needs, much of it is.

But film-making is, first and last, a process of crea tion, and creation, even for Warhol, begins with an attitude which can be termed an "idea."

Philosophy, as any academic discipline, begins with an idea; even in the physical sciences data is collected not at ran dom but within the structure of an hypothesis or the stated goals of even a "pure research" study.

As every young student film-maker sooner or later dis covers, cinema also begins with an interest in an idea, even though the "idea" may be no more than a feeling about something or someone.

The same student notices, too, that some films are "better" than others, in his own estimation. If technical equality is granted, the question arises in his mind: what is a "good" idea for a film?

In a sometimes long process, which can be shortened by apt courses, the film student arrives at a situation in which he is questioning his own values (either to try to discover within himself the origins of a "good idea for a film," or because he is a growing artist who seeks to grow more).

It is in this area that the academic field of value phi losophy can be of help to a cinema student, who by the fact of formally studying film in a university situation may be able to take advantage of the potentially integrated ideals of a univer sity: to reach a knowledge of things, their causes, and their value. The latter area is the concern of value philosophy.

Generally the beginning film-student wouldn't and couldn't begin to assess his film-making efforts in terms of another aca demic discipline. He has enough problems wrestling with camera setups, exposures, actors, events. He is doing well, he thinks, if now and then he questions himself over a beer about what went into his last, less-than-perfect, cinematic effort which will

1 2 contribute at least a small headstart on his next film in terms of the film's idea.

In general, the film student is forced, either self Socratically or in a classroom environment, to question what he himself, not Kant, Locke, or his teacher thinks an idea is in order to make his next film.

But by the, time he has made his fourth film the student may have read and heard enough to suspect that everyone in the film business knows that 11 ideas 11 are marketing projections, gleaned from a feeling of what's 11 in" or will be "in" by the time the answer print is okayed.

The films that aren't slick boxoffice guesses are pedan tic remakes of someone else's money-maker. The pattern applies to theatrical as well as industrial and educational efforts . Film-makers can be noisily defensive about this dollar, franc, lira process but such a response is foolish because financing has been the practical core of all film-making.

Such a reply in terms of an idea for a film, does not answer anything for the film student. A precondition of film making is that you've got to have money to make a movie, just as you've got to have financing to establish a pharmaceutical labor atory to research and manufacture medicine, or whatever.

Therefore a more precise question develops quickly: What is a filmic idea?

The film-student finds out fast that not all ideas are appropriate in their pure state for presentation in a film . Ideas, in abstract terms, are just that: abstractions . And if contorted into a film, the "idea" becomes a "message" or, even worse, symbolic setups loaded down with 11 meaning." This invari ably results in literal pictures, photographs of verbal meta phors which convey something verbally but translated into a movie become, as one student noted, a picture of a man going and flying a kite.

So once again the student asks: What is a film?

The film-maker can go to technical symposia for the next thirty years and never be sure what film is because technology is ever-leaping and ever-compartmentalizing. But only one man , the film-maker, has ultimate responsibility for aiming the camera and exposing the film toward a specific setup. And, once exposed , this chain of still photos , in conjunction with sound, creates a continuum, a process, an event of being, which is examinable by other beings who will experience that duration of projected still shots and will collectivize the experience in their minds--as an idea. The experience will become an idea or remain an uncommuni cated event, a waste of time . Hence, in practical t erms , film is 3 an idea.

But the precise explanation of the generation of this

~ . idea in the film-maker's mind is still obscure. And so the stu dent is where most people are when they begin a film: he "has an idea," and he "has a feeling" this idea will be "worthwhile." He likes the idea.

Hence, in the academic process of discovering a struc tural order in the production of a film, another more fundamen tal question can develop: What does "liking the idea" mean?

This, for the student, is something closer to home. "Liking" means a good, earthy feeling toward a person, or thing, or idea. And if the student wants to, as he should in a univer sity, he can explore the implications 9f "liking."

The response to who likes what, and why, the student soon discovers, encompasses a vast range of academic interests, hundreds, thousands, of books, unceasing professors of every stripe in every field. The very academic scope of any answer is loose in bewildering breadth and the fractioning of knowledge doesn't provide quick answers toward becoming a film-maker of good ideas.

It is here that value philosophy, as an academic disci pline, can be of help to the film student. About one hundred years ago, Fri8drich Nietzsche declared God dead and set about restudying what man values and why. Philosophy began spreading into an area of great pertinence for the film-maker: value phi l

The sources of ·this new area of formal philosophy aim at a synthesis of the common facts of such fields as biology, psy chology, anthropology, and historical philosophy, in reference to the nature of man.

Among some philosophers value philosophy is seen as a duality of experience: a realm of objects and the experience of these objects as an awareness-of, a being-concerned-\vith, an intending, acting, meaning, discerning. The writings of philoso pher W. H. Werkmeister are an excellent exposition of value phi losophy (cf., bibliography). Value philosophy can be a disci pline to discern the meaning and worth of what is commonly termed involvement.

The obvious connection between the raw stuff of value philosophy and the intellectual classification of where man is in the midst of his experiences, can be of great personal help in clarifying the intellectual requirements of all film-making. Even the first time the film-maker tries to shoot, he discovers that the so-called "duality of experience" can multiply his choice of camera setups to infinity. He's back to his personal 4 c1oice of values , and why one angle is , to him , better than another .

A short bibliography at the end of this article lists some readings in this area of contemporary philosophy which may be of aid to film students . The implications for film- making a r e many . In sum, the books provide studies of what various me n arrive at in reference to the intricate and vast fields of con temporary knowledge and why they value what they perceive in com prehensive terms . ,

But the weak word, above , is "comprehensive . " Who says what is comprehensive? Nobel winner Max Born , for example , has described the predicament of the contemporary physicist :

The very meaning of the concept "knowledge" has undergone a fundamental change . It does not refer any more to a single person but to a community of all men . ' While the t otal of what has been found and d e posited in print grows in an unlimited manner , that part of it which an individual can possibly know and handle becomes rela t i vely smaller and smaller . Thus the gigantic increase of knowledge of the human race as a whole may mean that individuals become more stupid and superficial . There are unfortunately many indications that this is actually happening . (UNIVERSITAS , Stuttgart , v. 5, n . 2, pp . 148- 4 9 • )

Born, one of the founders of quantum the ory, is perhaps overly dour about man ' s increasing stupidity; but he is corre ct in his assessment that man ' s range of knowle dge , on an individ u al basis, has become smaller and smaller. Howeve r, Born's statement underlines one of the unique capacitie s of film: the cre atio n of a menta l synopsis or idea in a medium which a llow s that ide a e xposure to an unlimite d audience . The r e spo nsib ili ty for sub j e ct-matte r r e sts entire ly upon the film- maker. I t would a ppear f rom some studie s of value philo sophy the s e lection d e p e nds upon what the film-make r "like s . "

And a ll " l ikes" a r e of co urse co nnect ed to the socia l, s p iritua l, o r p e rso na l r e alm. He r e "socia l" means the rel a t ion s h i p s of t wo o r mo r e p e rso ns; "spirit u a l" means the abstract implications o f such r elationships; a nd " personal " means one ' s deepest , mo s t p rivate , physical and int ellectual responses to these perceived relati onships .

Since the e q u i pment to produce films is becoming more and more portable , it follows that the choice of events to put on film is becoming more and more vast , o r comprehensive .

Therefore a transfer of the academic knowledge of value 5

philosophy to the academic discipline of cinema becomes possible and important. To the extent to which the student film-maker is capable of comprehensive self-development in social, spiritual, and personal terms, to that degree will he "like" or "value" spe ~ . cific, concrete, and human universal events, which his films will reflect. To the degree the film-maker achieves the capacity for creative personal involvement in the hard day-to-day situa tions of life, to that extent will he expose himself to the pos sibility of a position of expressible value (expressible in spe cific camera setups). At the same time his outlook will be com prehensive or universal because the film-maker's own likes and knowledge will be developed in terms of his own sociability, spirituality, and personality. Value philosophy, to the extent it can provide an ideal structure through which the film-maker can judge the worth of his involvement, should be an academic aid and a highly relevant intellectual tool for a film-maker.

So--what can a film-maker, just beginning or an old hand, establish in terms of some sort of personal "philosophy of film" with assistance from the university context?

It is clear that the man who controls the film economi cally has ultimate life-or-death control over the "philosophy" even if he simply hires a film-maker who supplies the idea and the work.

The technical aspects of film only support the ideas of the film-maker. Hence tricky setups, fads of whatever kind, have no meaning of value if divorced from the film-maker's idea.

Ideas remain connected to "likes." But "likes and dis likes" can be as hopelessly complex as the information explo sion. Just as the adolescent redefines himself through experi ence, discipline and reflection, and this is calied growth, so must the film~maker of ideas grow, and growth is connected to specific acts. Value philosophy can help to define which acts are of value. BIBLIOGRAPHY

6 FILM IN THE UNIVERSITY

Hallock Hoffman

Man is a creature of habit. He is currently living in a world in which everything is rapidly becoming something else. The society and the environment are in headlong transition. We don't know what we are becoming, we don't know where we are going, and in fact a good many of us would prefer not to notice that anything is happening. In such a time we desperately need signs and pointers.

In previous times of disorientation and chaos, the people found their way with the help of philosophers and artists. Art and thought are our highest activities. We rely on them to show us how to go. Thought is useful when logic is useful, which is in respect to matters that are predictable. Rational procedures are fine as long as the society is sufficiently stable and the occupations of the people are sufficiently durable to permit most events to follow from the obvious causes.

But chaos, and very rapid change, are precisely condi tions in which events do not follow from the obvious causes. In such times, thought must be reinforced by intuition. Intuition is the special product of art. When thought is hampered by the intractable materials with which it must work, intuition becomes the way of knowing and learning.

The materials are now intractable. We are living in a time when the wisdom of our grandfathers is almost useless and the knowledge of our fathers is out of date. We are in need of intuition, and we must get it from art. But the art must be particular to the age.

A free society is one in which the citizens are the rulers. They rule themselves through a government, of course; they elect their officers and expect their legislators to make their laws, and their policemen and their courts to keep the law and assure the order they all need to guarantee their freedom. That is the point of government: to make a society that is just, in which each man gets what he deserves, no more, no less. The basic necessity for justice to make a society free is freedom for the rulers--that is, the citizens.

There has never been a truly free society. We have seen approximations now and then, during our efforts to build civili zations. We know enough to describe the minimum conditions for creating such a society. The minimum conditions are those that make men free. Men are made free--not born free.

l 2

The quality that makes for liberation is criticism--the capacity to perceive arts and objects and to judge them . This is so because freedom is choosing , and choosing depends on judging . The work of the c i tizen is to judge- -to judge his public offi cers, the public policies-they propose , their performance in their offices, and the quality of the life in his society . -

The academy- -the college or university--fulfills its mission in the democratic society when it is a center and sanctu ary for independent thought and criticism. (The graduates of these academic communities must themselves take special responsi bility for the schools prior to the college--which must also be devoted to liberation . )

The specialization that has overtaken us as a result of the demands of our technical achievements has fractured the uni versity . It is not any longer, anywhere in America, a uni versity at all--it is , in Clark Kerr ' s apt term, a rnulti=Versity, a place of many voices performing a multitude of intellectual and educative services for the community . But there must be, some where in the society, a university if there is to be any community at all . The community or-5cholars , as Robert Hutchins has always said , cannot be a community without communication--without a com mon language based on some common experience. Speaking in tongues may connect us with mystical worlds, but not with each other . Most of us on college campuses have learned a language that cuts us off from our fellows, instead of joining us to them . The departments, the idea of "courses" (imagine, as if thought and life were divided into boxes, and persons might be pumped up with discrete substances labelled politics, music, history, etc.!), grades, vocational requirements, and the rest make the college a place where persons are prevented from corning into pos session of most of their powers, rather than supported in self realization . Under such conditions, it is too much to hope that anything will save either the college or the society.

What the campuses need is something we are currently forced to talk about under the heading of "inte rdisciplinary" activities. The effort to develop communication among the mem bers of the college is worth the most serious attention.

What happens to the capacity for independent thought and criticism in a time of rapid change or chaos? The capacity becomes more important than ever--clear-sighted judgment of the social scene is the essence of citizenship, but is hardest to achieve in a time of tension. In such times pressures grow upon all, seeking to make everyone adopt the going myths so that t e conventional wisdom will seem to be unchallenged. Thought, 1hich rests upon a systematic view of the whole, is vulnerable to charges of subversion or enmity . Somehow, the license of the thinker is always revocable.

It would be good if mankind had a history of honoring its 3 philosophers in times of trouble--of honoring and comforting them; and sheltering them against the day when their measure of wisdom will be recognized and required. We do not honor the ~ . thinkers who speak truths we would prefer not to hear. We do not h onor them; we poison them and hang them, trying to suppress their truths by shutting their mouths.

But while we are quenching the voices of the thinkers, we may be celebrating the work of artists whose message is the same. Some nerve of self-preservation keeps us from cutting off all our resources; and we seem to find the intuitions of the artists, who are always ahead of everybody anyhow, more acceptable than the thoughts of the philosophers.

Like the inclusiveness of modern technology, its special art--the motion picture--is almost totally inclusive of the arts. Anything that deals with sight and sound intending to convey ideas or feelings belongs to motion pictures. The motion picture is the distinctive medium of our era. It is what we have never had before. Like any new art, it will take awhile to mature. People are only now--maybe not even yet--beginning to make motion pictures. We have until now mainly been recording stage plays, or storing events--useful and valuable and exciting capacities of the medium, of course; but not the realization of the medium in its maturity. (I do not intend to make any distinction between film and video tape--or any other forthcoming technique for inducing that special set of perceptual experiences the film can achieve.) The combination of aural and visual sensations put under the control of the director by motion picture technology is a function of the great technical developments of our time. It therefore offers to art the medium that can bring our machines and institutions and ideas within our perceptual grasp. It gives us the means for recapturing command of them. No art form by it self can enable the faculties of the university to understand each other. But the motion picture is at least a modern artistic technique that tends to pull things together, instead of driving them further apart. The motion picture, as a centripetal art, as a synthetic and experimental medium, recalls the university to its role as center.

Almost everything that happens in the university fits. Almost everything that happens to people anywhere may be raised to new levels of understanding or appreciation by translation into film. Painting and music and writing and history--the whole content of the humanities--may contribute to and be enlivened by motion pictures. Even mathematics and logic, those disciplines whose special function it is to be clear and precise, can help motion pictures. Philosophy, which has lately on some campuses b een recaptured from the grammarians, ought to be inquiring into the aesthetic consequences of motion pictures, just as it ought also to be helping motion picture makers with the problem of meaning. 4

We need the university to be a center of art and thought, of the perceiving and criticizing that belongs to our age . The art of the film , meanwhile , must be made conscious of itself . By and large , the practitioners of the motion picture arts are not yet conscious of their own part in the ente rprise called libe r a l art . Their interest in the techniques of the ir craft and the ir excitement with novel developments distract them from their intellectual and cultural obligations to institutions of higher learning .

I have argued that the society needs a university that is an independent center of art and thought . I have said that the motion picture is the art form characteristic of our age; and further , that its own demands move in the dire ction of health for the university , because it is an art form that c ombines disci plines, as the university must learn to combine its capacitie s. The argument , therefore , leads me to conclude that the motion picture in all its manifestations ought to be integrate d into the university as a subject of study , as a tool for studying o ther objects, and as an object of experience and contemplation .

But we need something more. The motion picture, as a participant in the university, requires a me ans that will lead its students to greater awareness of their art and the place o f their art among the other academic achievements . For this we c a n take a lesson from the law , one of the traditional discipline s of the university .

Law , more than medicine or theology , has been a self developing profession. The reason lies in the nature of the practice of the law , and the special function that practice pro vides to the law school journals . The law depe nds on judging. Judges must confront cases, and r e ach judgme nts . Since judge s a r e as fallible as other human beings, it is worth asking why they do so well- -why so large a fraction of t heir judgments a r e sensible and commend the mselve s to the good opinion of thei r s o cietie s . It is ge ne rally believed that jud g e s do s o we ll be cause they must give reasons for the ir judgments, must write the s e r eas o ns down , a nd e xpect the ir rea s onings to be subject ed t o public e xamination by the memb e rs of the ir professio n. Stu dents in l aw school spend a goo d d e al of t i me wo rking over the gre at c a ses of the ir e lders, think ing about them, and publ i shi ng their t ho ughts in the law j o urnals . The law journals ser ve bot h t o i n str uct the y oung a nd c o rre ct the o l der ; and the professi on of law grows a n d i mpro v e s because of this int ernal system of pro fes s ional commu n i cation and criticism.

A p arallel argument shows why medicine and the clergy have failed to achieve a similar degree of self- correc tion and self- improvement . Their jour nals gener ally instr uct or protect- they do not discuss or criti cize . The profession of teaching (if there is one) suffers from the same dereliction : teachers have until recently been such second- class citizens they have been •

afraid to risk self-disclosure or public argument.

The university film-makers need a journal for their art that can perform for them what the law school journals have done for the law. There is as yet no such journal. The growing attention paid to film by the theatrical and popular magazines, the criticism that is developing in the public (lately especially the underground) press, and the few small journals devoted to the mutual instruction of film-makers, are all to the good. But they do not perform the correctional and improvement services of the law journals. They do not command the display of reasons and intentions by established motion picture makers; nor criticism and questioning by the young learners.

Neither do they seek out the activities of the university that bear on films, to make those connections evident; nor do they demonstrate to other members of the university community what films ought to mean to them.

All these functions ought to be encouraged and dissemi nated by a journal of quality and conspicuous intelligence. Such a journal could lead the academic film-makers to turn their art into a profession: to make it into a discipline that has, in addition to technique, an ethic, and a theory to govern and inform its practice.

Then we could fairly hope that the film could give us the view of ourselves we need, as citizens, to govern ourselves wisely.

Old-fashioned people are still around. There always are during a time of change. Most of us are mostly fiom the old time, with a little new tacked on. Many of us, in our usual human way, are trying to resist the realization of the society that fits our technology. But some artists will be able to inte grate this new world for themselves, and to articulate its fea tures for the rest of us. The rest of us can come to grips with the newness through their art, because they can teach us to know, through their integrated perceptions, what we are able to per ceive directly for ourselves. To make their communications ours, to realize their art in our own souls, to come to share the truths they have grasped, we have to learn the critical skills in respect to their work. These are the truths that will make us free.

Cinema Circulus Newsletter

For the education of future members of the film industry/ University of Southern California, Division of Cinema/ University Park, Los Angeles, Calif. 90007 Seminars To Encourage Dialogue A series of monthly discussion seminars between student film makers and members of Cinema Circulus will be sponsored by the group's Board, according to Tichi Wilkerson Miles, Vice Presi dent of Cinema Circulus. The decision to conduct these meetings was the result of an exploration on the part of the Board and of students who had met with Mrs. Miles in order to find more meaningful ways of bringing together students and professionals. "We hope that members of Cinema Circulus will volunteer to attend these late-afternoon dinners and evening viewings of stu dent film," Mrs. Miles stated. "It was the Board's decision to turn the tables about and ask the students to show their material for criticism rather than have them sit back and view the work of professionals." "We are hoping that during the three months we try this we will have seven or eight professionals and an equal number of students at each of the seminar sessions ." Mrs. Miles explained PRESENTATION - Jack L. Warner, seen last May 5, when he pledged $1.5 million toward the construction of the Ann and Jack L.

It is expected that the first such program will take place in late October. Dr. Bernard Kantor, "The best way we can do this, " Wise told the Cinema Circulus Board, "is to establish an annual revolving fund of $2,500 from Chairman of the Cinema Division, agreed to arrange the dinner which students can draw up to $200 to complete films which at the USC Faculty Center or at a nearby restaurant where films might not otherwise be completed ." Wise announced the addition could be screened. However, it was agreed upon by the Board of $500 to his Cinema Circulus contribution for this purpose . that a more central location could be chosen at a later date if it were desired. "I hope other members of the organization will join me in contributing to this fund and as soon as it reaches its goal, the monies will be made available to students." Continuing Officers, Board Members Wise suggested to the Board that the grants not be made out right, but that the students who receive the monies return them At its annual meeting in June, the Board of Cinema Circulus to the fund when they can afford to do so.

One of World's Largest Film Collections Given to Cinema Division by Lustgarten One of the world's largest collections of motion picture story and production still photos has been given to the Division of Cinema by Edward Lustgarten, prominent California real estate investor and a collector of Americana. Dating back to about 1910, the Lustgarten collection includes some 650,000 8x10-inch prints and nearly 20,000 original negatives, all catalogued and filed in some 200 packing containers. Included in the gift is a set of Film Daily Yearbook, dating back to 1920. Conservative value of the gift has been placed at $350,000. The Lustgarten collection eventually witl be placed with other highly valuable collections in the Archive of Performing Arts •. a library which will be a part of the planned Center for Performmg Arts. Acquired some years ago by Mr. Lustgarten to prevent its being broken up, the original collection was augmented by the THE CINEMOBILE - A rolling studio on wheels was recently demonstrated by its developer, USC alumnus and Cinema Circulus member, Fouad Said, purchase of some 20 smaller collections in the past year.

New Dean, Faculty, Staff Join To Make Plans lor Center ol Performing Arts Dr. Grant Beglarian, newly appointed Dean of the School of Performing Arts, has begun working with the faculty and staff of the Division of Cinema in the planning of the new Performing Arts Center. An announcement last spring by Jack Warner, USC Trustee and Cinema Circulus member, of a $1,500,00 donation for a new Cinema Center was quickly followed by the announcement of gifts from two other members of the USC Board of Trustees - Mrs. Anna Bing Arnold's offer to finance an 800-seat theater, and a substan tial sum from Mrs. Blanche Seaver to build the School of Music portion of the Performing Arts complex. "We hope to break ground within twelve months," Dean Be glarian said, "and with the help of Dr. Kantor, his staff, and Cinema Circulus, we should be able to create something new and exciting in the way of a center where Cinema will assume a large p!ace in Performing Arts."
