Our third time out and maybe three’s a jinx, maybe we got a little cocky. In any case, nothing jelled for the longest time. Then, because TPV has Twinkle-Dust Factor, something finally clicked, and the topic rose to the surface: We were questing for the Mythical Beast. The elu- T sive, the magical and mysterious. The thing you want – It – ever and teas- ingly just beyond reach. The experience of “art” is a mystery, after all, and requires that willing suspension of disbelief. Furthermore, we want this shimmering thing in our homes – so quotidian, the antithesis of the magic carpet. If It can ever happen at home at all, the process requires an extraordinary blend of multi-sensual cues with true artistic vision – more than ever we needed in strange, dark caves. Paul Seydor tells you how film editors strive for It. Alen Koebel haunted INFO- COMM looking for It. Alice Artzt says she found It in Roberto Benigni. For Tom Miiller, It turned his “perfect” room into a Tig e r . Greg Rogers says you might be able to find perfect color – but not without real know-how. Greg Sandow digs at the very heart of the experience before he finds a little of It. HP points out that while Special Editions are supposed to have It, suppositions by nature create unassuageable desires. Jonathan Valin takes on the vision of the great Imago himself, Ingmar Bergman, in the hope that some spells work forever. Wh y , you say, I might have It in my hands right this minute! But drat, you can’t get the system to work – you keep punching buttons and get picture but no sound, sound but no video. Where are those simple, hunky knobs of yore that clicked so cleanly from off to on and let you know when you’d got there? For some of us, It might just be sound and vision at the same time – every time. Still, we have good, solid stuff here: Controllers (maybe they’re that great old knob in new skin, if we can figure out how to use them). DVDs. Projectors, line doublers. Even whole systems (Part 1, of course. This is still a qu e s t . And we are yet ourselves.) Highlights: Sandow in Cuba at the Buena Vista Social Club; Seydor on the Cutting Room Floor; Rogers on Color; Rogers on Runco & Sony; Miiller in the War Room with Revel; Rawlinson with the Alchemist of Linn. Valin with Queen Elizabeth (he’d rather be with Mrs. Brown). And HP with Kubrick and the Space Monsters. SR V I E W P O I N T S 6 Editorial 7 Editorial Notes Can All That Counts Be Counted?

Welcome to the Spring Cinema Series… a unique opportunity to learn about cinema in an interdisciplinary, cinematheque-style environment open to the general public! Throughout the term we will invite a variety of special guests to enrich your understanding of the films in the series. The films will be preceded by formal introductions and followed by public discussions. You are welcome and encouraged to bring guests throughout the term! This is not a traditional class, therefore it is important for you to review the course assignments and due dates carefully to ensure that you fulfill all the requirements to earn the grade you desire. We want the Cinema Series to be both entertaining and enlightening for students and community alike. Welcome to our college film club! COURSE DESCRIPTION This course will introduce students to one of the most powerful cultural and social communications media of our time: cinema. The successful student will become more aware of the complexity of film art, more sensitive to its nuances, textures, and rhythms, and more perceptive in “reading” its multilayered blend of image, sound, and motion. The films, texts, and classroom materials will cover a broad range of domestic, independent, and international cinema, making students aware of the culture, politics, and social history of the periods in which the films were produced.

  • THE PHILOSOPHY of STEVEN SODERBERGH the Philosophy of Popular Culture
    THE PHILOSOPHY OF STEVEN SODERBERGH The Philosophy of Popular Culture Th e books published in the Philosophy of Popular Culture series will illuminate and explore philosophical themes and ideas that occur in popular culture. Th e goal of this series is to demonstrate how philosophical inquiry has been reinvigorated by increased scholarly interest in the intersection of popular culture and philosophy, as well as to explore through philosophical analysis beloved modes of entertainment, such as movies, TV shows, and music. Philosophical concepts will be made accessible to the general reader through examples in popular culture. Th is series seeks to publish both established and emerging scholars who will engage a major area of popular culture for philosophical interpretation and examine the philosophical underpinnings of its themes. Eschewing ephemeral trends of philosophical and cultural theory, authors will establish and elaborate on connections between traditional philosophical ideas from important thinkers and the ever-expanding world of popular culture.

From helping with making informed decisions about a new movie script with respect to aspects such as its origi- nality, similarity to other movies, or even commercial viability, all the way to offering consumers new and interesting ways of viewing the final movie, many stages in the life-cycle of a movie stand to benefit from Machine Learning techniques that promise to reduce human effort, time, or both.

  • Short Synopsis a Young Woman Is
    *** Please note: these production notes are for reference only and may contain spoilers. We would appreciate you not revealing the characters’ secrets in editorial or social postings without proper warning. The film is under embargo until Wednesday, February 21 at 10:30pm CET / 4:30pm EST / 1:30pm PST. Thank you. *** Short Synopsis A young woman is involuntarily committed to a mental institution where she is confronted by her greatest fear - but is it real or is it a product of her delusion? Long Synopsis Making a startling trip into thriller territory with Unsane, director Steven Soderbergh plunges audiences into the suspense and drama of a resilient woman’s (Claire Foy, The Crown) fight to reclaim her freedom even as she risks her own sanity. Scarred from the trauma of being stalked, quick-witted Sawyer Valentini (portrayed by Ms. Foy) has relocated from Boston to Pennsylvania for a new life. As her mother Angela (Academy Award nominee Amy Irving) misses her back home and her office job is hardly an ideal employment opportunity, Sawyer remains on edge following her two years of being terrorized. To consult with a therapist, she goes for follow-up treatment at the Highland Creek Behavioral Center. Sawyer’s initial therapy session at the suburban complex run by clinician Ashley Brighterhouse (Aimée Mullins, Stranger Things) progresses well — until she unwittingly signs herself in for voluntary 24-hour commitment. Unable to leave the premises, Sawyer finds herself in close quarters with previously committed hellion Violet (Juno Temple, The Dark Knight Rises) and savvy Nate (Jay Pharoah, Saturday Night Live), who is battling an opioid addiction.

  • Religious Sects and Cults: the Study of New Religious Movements in the United States
    For the personal use of teachers. Not for sale or redistribution. © Center for the Study of Religion and American Culture, 2011 Religious Sects and Cults: The Study of New Religious Movements in the United States Young Scholars in American Religion 2009-2011 Lynn S. Neal __________________________________________________________ Institutional Setting Wake Forest in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, is a private, secular university with an undergraduate college dedicated to providing students with a liberal arts education. The student body numbers around 4500, many of whom graduated in the top ten percent of their high school class. The majority of these students are from the South (53 percent) and are affiliated with some branch of Christianity (Catholicism is the single largest denomination represented). However, in recent years, the college has been working hard to increase the racial, economic, regional, and religious diversity of the undergraduate population. Eliminating the SAT requirement and admitting students based on a more holistic approach has yielded some success in this regard. Students tend to be motivated and bright, involved and inquisitive. The challenge, for many, is balancing their academic interests and expectations with their various extracurricular commitments. Wake Forest upholds the teacher-scholar ideal for its professors, which demands excellence in both teaching and research. This encourages professors to develop their pedagogical skills, to consider connections between their teaching and research, and allows for smaller classroom sizes. The faculty/student ratio on campus is 11:1. My appointment is in the Religion Department where courses serve two primary purposes. First, our introductory courses fulfill a humanities requirement for the college.
