Roger Ebert’s Film Festival 2017 April 19–23, 2017 Chaz Ebert, Co-Founder, Producer, and Host Nate Kohn, Festival Director Casey Ludwig, Assistant Director More information about the festival can be found at www.ebertfest.com Mission Founded by the late Roger Ebert, University of Illinois Journalism graduate and a Pulitzer Prize- winning film critic, Roger Ebert’s Film Festival takes place in Urbana-Champaign each April for a week, hosted by Chaz Ebert. The festival presents 12 films representing a cross-section of important cinematic works overlooked by audiences, critics and distributors. The films are screened in the 1,500-seat Virginia Theatre, a restored movie palace built in the 1920s. A portion of the festival’s income goes toward on-going renovations at the theatre. The festival brings together the films’ producers, writers, actors and directors to help showcase their work. A film- maker or scholar introduces each film, and each screening is followed by a substantive on-stage Q&A discussion among filmmakers, critics and the audience. In addition to the screenings, the festival hosts a number of academic panel discussions featuring filmmaker guests, scholars and students. The mission of Roger Ebert’s Film Festival is to praise films, genres and formats that have been overlooked.

  • 'The 50 Greatest Jewish Movies: a Critic's Ranking of the Very Best'
    H-Film Davidoff on Bernheimer, 'The 50 Greatest Jewish Movies: A Critic's Ranking of the Very Best' Review published on Thursday, April 1, 1999 Kathryn Bernheimer. The 50 Greatest Jewish Movies: A Critic's Ranking of the Very Best. Secaucus, N.J.: Carol Publishing Group, 1998. xi + 212 pp. $21.95 (paper), ISBN 978-1-55972-457-9. Reviewed by Solomon Davidoff (Bowling Green State University) Published on H-Film (April, 1999) Eight Fingers I have often wondered, if we had only eight fingers instead of ten, would we be producing lists of the Thirty-Two Greatest (fill in subject here) of all time? I ask the question, because while Bernheimer attempts to categorize Jewish oriented film into the fifty greatest of all time, she notes the difficulty that the restriction places upon her, and how she has to sneak in other worthy titles among her reviews, mentioning The Frisco Kid when discussing Blazing Saddles for instance. Bernheimer provides commentary for each of the fifty films that begins with the standard information (title, studio, year of release, primary cast, director, length and rating) and a description of the entire photoplay, but goes into both positive and negative commentary. This is unlike some motion picture review books, which not only offer only positive commentary, but do not discuss the entire plot of the film, including the conclusion. While as a viewer I do not wish to be aware of a movie's conclusion before seeing it, I do want that information when reading full commentary of a production and its historical and cultural importance.

  • Principles of Bilingual Education in the 1920S: the Imperial Education Conferences and French-English Schooling in Alberta
    Principles of Bilingual Education in the 1920s: The Imperial Education Conferences and French-English Schooling in Alberta by Anne-Marie Lizaire-Szostak A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Educational Administration and Leadership Department of Educational Policy Studies University of Alberta © Anne-Marie Lizaire-Szostak, 2018 Abstract French Immersion and Francophone education in Alberta are both examples of publicly funded French-English bilingual education since the 1970s and 1980s. To better understand French Immersion in Alberta today, as well as the basis of calls to recognize it as rights-based education, it is important to understand how bilingual education evolved during the early years in this province. In this historical research dissertation, bilingual education and policy formation in Alberta are examined in the context of the burgeoning provincial society, within a British dominion, at a time when English liberalism was beginning to recognize national minorities and the Empire was transforming into the Commonwealth. This case study is based on document analysis of reports from the Imperial Education Conferences, especially that of 1923, which promoted bilingual education. The conceptual framework is informed by principles of interpretive historical sociology, drawing upon Kymlicka’s (1995/2000) liberal theoretical argument of national minority rights based on equality. Bilingual education was presented as a parental right at the Imperial Education Conferences
