By JONATHAN BLUM A retired naval officer told a group of about 30 physicians and medical students Wednesday night that the United States should begin immediately to eliminate nuclear weaponry. Retired Commander William Withrow, in a lecture sponsored by the Triangle chapter of Physicians for Social Responsibility (PSR), said "We are going to have to change our way of thinking." Withrow, a 1941 graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy who saw action on the USS Wasp in the Pacific during World War II, was highly critical of the continued buildup of con­ ventional and nuclear weapons by both the United States and the Soviet Union. "We put so much weight on who has more; it doesn't really make any difference," he said. Discuss­ ing an arms race in which the United States is build­ ing five nuclear warheads per day, he said that both nations need a "complete change in attitude" and that the immediate goal should be to "reverse the arms UPI PHOTO race." In keeping with Argentina's long history of political revolt, these soldiers celebrate after a revolt in 1975 Withrow said a good place to start this reversal would be in the area of space weaponry. He said he saw no need for the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI). According to Withrow, even at optimum effi­ Argentina election risks nation's stability ciency SDI would stop ninety-five percent of incoming missiles.

If it denies wrongdoing and flees from moral responsibility, that nation surren­ ders to Fate's retribution; but if its people are moved to root out corruption, that nation can overcome its past and shape its future. In today's sermon, we take as our symbol the ancient city of Samarra, 70 miles from the Iraqi capital of Bagh­ dad. Americans recall the name vaguely as part of the title of a fatalistic 1934 novel by John O'Hara, "Appoint­ ment in Samarra." The old city has been in the news as the site of one of the factories built by West Germans to produce the poison gas used by the Iraqi dictator to mur­ der 5,000 Kurdish men, women and children.

In addition to presenting films, this semester Freewater Films is proud to be bringing filmmaker Christine Choi to Duke University February 13 and 14 to talk about her award winning documentary, "Who'Killed Vincent Chin?" which will be shown on the 14th as part of the Chinese film series. This is the first time in Five years that Freewater has been able to bring a filmmaker to the University. Another exciting^vent for Freewater Films this semester is the premiere of a student-made film entitled "The Woods off the Highway." Duncan McLean, Freewater Presentations member and chairman of Freewater Productions, has spent two years making this original, 30-minute film which will be shown at 9:00 and 10:00 on February 1 in the Bryan Center film theater. Although Freewater is an excellent source of student entertainment, "it is surprising," says Jeff Hoo, chairman of Freewater Presentations, "that few students can distinguish us from Quad Flicks." Unlike Freewater, Quad Flicks shows more recent, highly publicized movies such as "Big" and "Moonstruck" on Saturday and Sunday nights and charges students three dollars for admission. "Most students aren't aware that Freewater films are free to them," says Hoo. Ever since the closing of the Carolina theater, Freewater has been able to attract more Durham residents who are look­ ing for the kind of films that are not generally shown in area theaters. In addition, Freewater has been able to obtain more expensive recent releases that may have otherwise been shown at the Carolina. For film lovers who are tired of the high-priced, main­ stream movies that dominate the shopping mall theater line­ ups, Freewater provides an interesting alternative. "Remember Freewater Films," says Hoo; "it don't cost nothin'." [R&FR

During the course of these ten years (pre-AIDS), Arnold meets and falls in love with an ambivalent bisexual who makes the socially safer choice of living with a woman _%"* rather than committing himself to the hardly respectable Arnold (whose stage name is the \ non-Kosher Virginia Hamm).

PAGE6 / THECHRONICLE R&R WEEKLY MAGAZINE • THURSDAY, JANUARY 26,1989 Talk Radio Filmmaker Oliver Stone delves deep into the American talk show psyche

by Oiristopher Wenrikson

n a superficial level, Oliver Stone's "Talk Radio" fuses the Othematic isolation of "Boy in the Plastic Bubble" with the raw, bimbo-bashing crudity of the Morton Downey jr. Show. But "Talk Radio" is not a superficial fiim. Instead of licking the surface of the American radio "shock jock" phenomenon, it bur­ rows deep into its cerebrum. And, as protaganist Barry Champlain ultimately discovers, it's awfully dark in there. Appropriately then, sound plays an integral role in the con­ struction of both Champlain's physical and mental lair. The film's opening sequence is an exercise in layered sound as our talk show host passes through sonic barrier after sonic barrier, door after door, on his way to the radio station's core. With each penetration, the broadcast's tonal quality changes until the man finally straps on headphones in his glassed-in studio den. To the tune of George Thorogood's lone star rock anthem, "Bad to the Bone," Dallas' Barry Champlain Show goes on the air. The metaphoric connotations of this initial scene soon be­ come painfully evident. "Talk Radio" traces a radio personali­ ty's gradual shedding of contradictory strips of psychological insulation. With the removal of each layer, Eric Bogosian, as the embattled Champlain, falls deeper and deeper into a pit of self- realization. His identity has become irrevocably fused to that of the show and its psychotic fringe audience. When Champlain invites Kent [Michael Wincott), a doped-up, heavy metal pin- head into the studio as a guest, a scene which began as a joke turns into an incredibly powerful, black comic personal crisis. Somewhere'deep within Kent's burnt out visage, it seems. Champlain sees himself. Visually, Oliver Stone does a masterful job of conveying his centra! character's psychological angst.

The actor/playwright and Stone, in collaboration, also added lines and narrative elements from Stephen Singular's book, Talked to Death: the Life and Marder of Alan Berg, the documentary story of a Denver talk show host gunned down by a neo-Nazi hit squad in 1984.
