woo! Nos gradituri te salutamus mlKffi

Some have said this is my last chance to blast the powers that be; that it is. But lucky, unlucky, or ambivalent you, JSD isn't up for that this evening. No polemics. My newspaper days, which now stretch out over a decade, and mental, physical, and moral fatigue, brought on over the last four years, make me more reflective than rabble-rousin- g tonight. We Seniors have much to be thankful for. If we have used our time at Kenyon well or even not so well our future years just might have depth, meaning, and purpose, three qualities which are ever so lacking in this world. Most of us, I hope, will not squander these gifts. Cocktail parties and board-meetin- g chats might let us flex our muscles. But to take our rare education and try to make a slightly better world with it: that would be noble. I guess I would be untrue to myself if I did not have at least one "constructive criticsm" to make in this column. As promised you'll find no tirade; just a casual thought inspired by the last paragraph. This College might do a bit more to empower the liberal education which it bestows. Attitude is essential to what a person does with his or her life, and if not encouraged to act bravely and responsibly in youth the individual will settle into complacency.

lie Society' page Coming Attractions Charade. Directed by Stanley Donen. With Cary Grant, Audrey Hepburn, Jpf Walter Matthau, James Coburn, George Kennedy and Ned Glass. 1963, 113 min., color, USA.

Charade is a preposterous mock-thrill- er spoofing the Hitchcock tradition. It begins with a corpse in a French chapel. A leering man approaches the dead man's widow. She: "Good grief! What next?" Immediately she is cornered by the bruiser's pals who, while accusing her husband of stealing a quarter of a million bucks, toss lighted matches into her lap. Cary Grant appears and rescues her. Sounds like the setup for a) a sophisticated comedy, b) a thriller, or c) a farce? Director Stanley Donen seems not to have the answer in his own mind. While the movie is undoubtedly fun (lots of violence plus Grant and Hepburn), because it isn't contained by one dramatic form, it fails to fully satisfy. Donen borrows Hitchcock's starts, but their appeal and ability is greatly diminished by the low humor (He: "Would you like to see where I was tattooed?' She:"Yes!" He: "Alright. We can drive by the place.") Hitchcock always implicates his audience. In The Birds, aware that an audience will identify with the point of view from which the film is shot, he took many scenes from the predator's vantage. The viewer enjoyed the speed of the chase, and the feel of power; later he realized that it wasn't a game after all, and self-judgeme- felt guilty for having had so much fun. Donen tries to evoke a nt from the audience by restraining himself and the characters from making any moral judgement on the five murders that occur in Charade. By the time the heroine is threatened, the audience realizes that it doesn't care; it has been drawn into an amoral realm where "one can tell right from gauche, but not from wrong." The film is less successful than a Hitchcock because good art does not evoke neutrality. Perhaps Donen's reluctance to be more original in his choice of story, style and he produced actors is due to his early cinematic background. Originally a dancer, for MGM a series of musical hits including On the Town, Singing in the Rain and It's Always Fair Weather. He moved to Warners and made more of the same, notably The Pajama Game and Damn Yankees. It is interesting to note that his biggest successes have occurred when he was paired behind the camera with another very talented individual. He co-direct- ed Singing in the Rain with Gene Kelly, he worked with choreographer Michael Kidd on Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, and his Funny Face was photographed by the exceptional Richard Avedon. Donen's decision to switch genres was a mistake; his eclecticism that enhances a musical comedy conflicts with the tight structure of a thriller. Donen has a reputation for pictorial excellence. Although the film is con- from ytmn n.ftmn 1 sciously commercial in intent and the fragments the director gathers i" Hitchcock prove too powerful for his grasp, the movie is entertaining.

Oliver. Directed by Carol Reed. Adapted from Charles Dickens' novel Oliver Twist by Lionel Bart. With Ron Moody, Mark Lester, Shani Wallis, Oliver Reed, Jack Wild, Hugh Griffith. 120 mins., 1968, British.

Musicals have never been my favorite type of film. I realize that they are the Kirk UJikon mainstay of some people's movie diet, but they make me gag. However, this E4oiu, it musical, which is potentially cloying, is very good, and even I have sat through three times (twice on television). TJiesongs are entertaining, and the per- formances turned in by the fine cast, 'including the children's, are excellent (h, Clara Giurck (Oliver Reed fans take note he's as good in this as he is in everything else). Shani Wallis unfortunately hasn't done much else, at least not that has been seen in this country, which is a shame, for her protrayal of Nancy, Bill Sikes' the K.C. mistress, shows that she can act as well as sing. Ron Moody steals the show with his rendition of Fagin, allowing both the fatherly and cruel side of this character to come through. Carol Reed and Lionel Bart even manage to present a fairly moy45, 1975 accurate account of Dickens' original story of the misfortunes of a London orphan, Oliver Twist. Although the film is a musical, Reed does not try to hide the dirt, poverty and violence of the London slums of the 1 830's, or the radical difference of the life of the upper class. The songs may be cheerful in the first part, when Oliver is at the orphanage and the undertaker's, but the reality behind it is not, and Reed seems Who got the laurels? to give a very realistic picture youth of virtual slavery many children endured in that period. Oliver quite deservedly won five Academy Awards including best picture and direction, and was nominated for several others.
