The President of SIGNIS, Gustavo Andújar, explained that “Archbishop Romero stands as an example to Christian communicators, for his vibrant homilies in the Cathedral, broadcast by radio to the whole country. In them, he spoke ceaselessly in defence of the poor and oppressed victims of the fratricidal violence that tore apart the nation. There is nothing more inspiring than fixing our gaze on this extraordinary man, a martyr of the faith for the sake of God’s favourites, who are the poor.” The original proposal came from Fr. Peio Sánchez of SIGNIS Spain, seconded by Fr. Luis Garcia Orso (former Vice- President of OCLACC, now SIGNIS Latin America and the Caribbean) and supported by the President of SIGNIS Latin America, Monica Villanueva.This initiative reemphasises the mission of SIGNIS members to promote stories of hope through all media in order to transform cultures in the light of the Gospel by promoting human dignity, justice and reconciliation.

    Guide to the Stephen H. Warner Collection Gettysburg College, Musselman Library Special Collections & College Archives Processed by Joseph R. Tucker Summer 2004 MS-044. Stephen H. Warner Collection (30 boxes, 8.1 cubic feet) Inclusive Dates: 1955-1971 Bulk Dates: 1970-1971 Processed by Joseph R. Tucker, '03 Summer 2004 Biography [Taken from the Stephen Warner Online Exhibit (2004-2018) at http://www.gettysburg.edu/special_collections/exhibits/warner/intro.dot] Stephen Warner attended Gettysburg College from 1964-1968, a relatively quiet period in the college's history. According to a sampling of the Gettysburgian from the 1964-1965 academic year, the student newspaper did occasionally mention United States involvement in southeast Asia. However, there were no indications of widespread student concern about this matter at that time. As a major in History, Steve Warner came to focus his interests on civil rights and social justice. His academic advisor, Roger Stemen, emeritus professor of History, described Warner as having been "radically intellectual, a non-collegiate type interested in the arts, history, and economics." Stephen Warner was perceived by those who knew him to be open-minded and considerate of others, but intense about those social and ethical matters that concerned him most. He was on the staff of the Gettysburgian and eventually became a Feature Editor. He was instrumental in establishing new campus organizations, including a human relations forum and the Ad Hoc Committee Against the Vietnam War. During his senior year he was inducted into the Phi Beta Kappa National Honor Society. He also was accepted to the Yale University Law School.

    Living is Easy with Eyes Closed (Spain 2014) DIRECTOR : David Trueba RUNNING TIME : 108mins RATING : M Synopsis: Set in Franco-era Spain, a free-spirited English teacher sets out to meet his idol John Lennon, who is filming on the other side of the country. Antonio wants to understand the lyric to the newly released Norwegian Wood. Review: Philippa Hawker Spanish filmmaker David Trueba came across the subject matter for his new film quite by accident. It wasn't just the tale of John Lennon's 1966 Spanish sojourn that intrigued him. It was the account of a teacher of English with a Beatles obsession who was determined to meet Lennon and ask him about his lyrics – lyrics that he used as a teaching aid in the classroom. Trueba read about this man in 2006, when the town of Almeria was celebrating the 40th anniversary of Lennon's presence; he had come there to take an acting role in a satirical comedy with director Richard Lester called How I Won The War. The other significant element in the project was a personal one. The novelist and filmmaker is the youngest of eight brothers; at the time Lennon was in Spain, Trueba's second brother was locked in a struggle with his father about the length of his hair. "He was trying to get his hair long, because he was a crazy fan of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. And my father was a typical Spanish father of the time of Franco, very authoritarian. So he told him to cut his hair.

    H6910 HOW I WON THE WAR (GREAT BRITAIN, 1967) (Other titles: Comment, j’ai gagne la guerre) Credits: director, Richard Lester ; writer, Charles Wood ; novel, Patrick Ryan. Cast: Michael Crawford, John Lennon, Roy Kinnear, Lee Montague. Summary: War/comedy set in North Africa and Europe during WWII. Lt. Ernest Goodbody (Crawford), a middle-aged British veteran of WWII reminisces about his triumphs in the British Army. His warm memories, however, belie the realities of a disastrous career leading one of the worst units in the British Army. According to Michael Lanning (below), Vietnam provided the motivation for this anti-war, anti-officer, anti-military film. Vietnam is mentioned at film’s end when one soldier asks another: “There’s a new war shaping up in Vietnam; do you think you’ll be in it?” The second soldier responds “No, I don’t like the director.” Armstrong, Marion. “Savage satire” Christian century 85 (Jan 24, 1968), p. 117-18.

Flanagan 2015 iii THE BRITISH WAR FILM, 1939-1980: CULTURE, HISTORY, AND GENRE Kevin M. Flanagan, Ph.D. University of Pittsburgh, 2015 This dissertation argues that discussions of war representation that privilege the nationalistic, heroic, and redemptively sacrificial strand of storytelling that dominate popular memory in Britain ignore a whole counter-history of movies that view war as an occasion to critique through devices like humor, irony, and existential alienation. Instead of selling audiences on what Graham Dawson has called “the pleasure culture of war” (a nationally self-serving mode of talking about and profiting from war memory), many texts about war are motivated by other intellectual and ideological factors. Each chapter includes historical context and periodizing arguments about different moments in British cultural history, explores genre trends, and ends with a comparative analysis of representative examples.

Just one month after they exploded onto the U.S. scene with their Ed Sullivan Show appearance, John, Paul, George, and Ringo began working on a project that would bring their revolutionary talent to the big screen. A Hard Day’s Night, in which the bandmates play wily, exuberant versions of themselves, captured the astonishing moment when they officially became the singular, irreverent idols of their generation and changed music forever. Directed with raucous, anything-goes verve by Richard Lester and featuring a slew of iconic pop anthems, including the title track, “Can’t Buy Me Love,” “I Should Have Known Better,” and “If I Fell,” A Hard Day’s Night, which reconceived the movie musical and exerted an incalculable influence on the music video, is one of the most deliriously entertaining movies of all time.

  • SYNOPSES – 6Th Latin American and Spanish Film Week at Cinecenta
    SYNOPSES – 6th Latin American and Spanish Film Week at Cinecenta Tuesday Sept. 22: Huicholes: The Last Peyote Guardians [Huicholes. Los últimos guardianes del peyote] by Hernán Vilchez (Mexico, 2014) – 125 min. Huicholes: The Last Peyote Guardians is a story about the Wixarika People, one of the last living Pre-Hispanic cultures in Latin America, and their struggle to preserve Wirikuta, their sacred territory and the land where the peyote grows, the traditional plant that keeps the knowledge of this iconic culture of Mexico alive. However, this territory is in danger. In 2010 the Mexican government granted concessions to several mining companies to explore and exploit the area, a natural reserve of 140,000 hectares of desert and hills in the Mexican state of San Luis Potosí, rich in gold, silver and other valuable minerals. This visually stunning documentary explores the struggles and hopes of the Huicholes today. Wednesday Sept. 23: Big House [Casa grande] by Fellipe Barbosa (Brazil, 2014) – 115 min. Exploring issues of class privilege among Rio de Janeiro’s decadent elite, Big House depicts a teenage boy's struggle to escape his overprotective parents as they covertly spiral into bankruptcy. Both a coming-of-age film and a social commentary on Brazil’s social inequalities and uneven development, Big House tells a human story, in realist fashion, that captures dreams and anxieties shared by millions of people in today’s globalized economy. Thursday Sept. 24: Behaviour [Conducta] by Ernesto Daranas (Cuba, 2014) - 108 min. One of the most heralded Cuban films of the last decade, Conducta provides a sensitive, unembellished look at contemporary life in Cuba.

  • Music in the British War Film, 1945–1979
    A Bridge Too Far? Music in the British War Film, 1945 ‒1979 MERVYN COOKE In his 2014 book Projecting Britain at War , Jeremy Havardi identifies four aspects of the national character which have been constantly promoted in British films concerned with the Second World War: chivalrous stoicism (the ‘stiff upper lip’), understated humour in adversity, amateurish improvisation, and pride in the indomitability of the underdog. 1 As usual in accounts of the British war movie, however, Havardi does not assess the crucial role played by film scores – which include some of the most famous in British movie history, now firmly lodged in the national consciousness – in helping to delineate these characteristics, beyond a few fleeting mentions of ‘stirring’ musical themes. This label and ‘rousing’ have always been by far the most common catch-all epithets associated with overtly patriotic film scoring, and they are also used repeatedly in the brief allusions to music in another recent survey of Second World War films.2 The present essay offers an assessment of scoring practices in a range of British war films from 1945 to the end of the 1970s, by which time the combat film in particular had grown moribund. It concentrates on the development of a distinctive martial idiom borrowed not only from the military but also from coronation music (which, somewhat ironically, is markedly Teutonic in its Meistersinger -like uplifting rhetoric and even in certain specific harmonic details), and action capers conceived in a spirit of almost comic-book schoolboy 1 Jeremy Havardi, Projecting Britain at War: The National Character in British World War II Films (Jefferson, NC: McFarland & Company, Inc., 2014), 6‒7.

  • Infomail Nr. 718: LENNON-Helm Im Beatles Museum
    InfoMail Nr. 718: LENNON-Helm im Beatles Museum Freitag, 16. November 2007 (Datum dieser InfoMail) Hallo M.B.M., heute informieren wir Dich ueber ein neues Ausstellungsstueck im Beatles Museum: Ein neues Highlight im Beatles Museum ist der Soldatenhelm, den JOHN LENNON getragen hat, als er in dem Film WIE ICH DEN KRIEG GEWANN mitwirkte. Der Film wurde 1966 in der Lueneburger Heide und Spanien gedreht. Foto: der Film-Stahlhelm von John Lennon. Information: JOHN LENNON ist der erste BEATLE, der ohne die anderen BEATLES in einem Kinofilm mitwirkte: Am 18. Oktober 1967 hatte die satirische Antikriegskomödie mit dem Titel HOW I WON THE WAR Weltpremiere in London. (In Deutschland hieß der Film WIE ICH DEN KRIEG GEWANN). Einer der Hauptdarsteller in dem Film von Regisseur RICHARD LESTER war JOHN LENNON als MUSKETEER GRIPWEED. Der Film wurde ab September 1966 in Deutschland und Spanien gedreht; LENNON musste dafür seine Haare bis auf einen armeekonformen Rest kürzen. LENNON identifizierte sich vollkommen mit der Aussage des Films. Für seine Rolle bekommt der stark kurzsichtige John auch seine „National Health“-Brille („Krankenkassenbrille“), die seit den Dreharbeiten zu seinem Markenzeichen wurde. RICHARD LESTER sagte zu seinem Film: „Der Film zeigt eine echte, tief empfundene Einstellung zu seiner Zeit. Er wird weiterhin Bestand haben, weil er niemanden dogmatisch bekehren und die Gesellschaft nicht verändert will. Vielmehr vermittelt der Film eine unglaublich ernst gemeinte Haltung gegenüber der Glorifizierung des Krieges von seiten des Showbusiness, die Mitte der sechziger Jahre vorherrschend war.“ Die im Jahre 1966 mit der Produktion und der Ausstattung der RICHARD LESTER-Films HOW I WON THE WAR beauftragte Londoner Firma Petersham Pictures Ltd.
