Annie Hall. Even though it's based on his real-life relationship with co-star Diane Keaton, Woody Allen's latest--and arguably best--film is far more than cinema a clef. Allen's sensitive, sometimes painfully realistic portrait of a failed love affair between a neurotic but lovable New York Jew and a flaky midwestern WASP marks a generally successful departure in thematic approach: Annie Hall goes much farther in exploring human relationships than any of Allen's previous films. Still, the best moments in the film are the deliberate send-ups in which Allen unleashes his scathing...
This weekend the Center Screen at Carpenter Center opens its fall film series with Dusan Makavejev's 1968 film Innocence Unprotected. A visiting professor at Harvard this year, the Yugoslavian filmmaker has achieved international reknown with such films as Man is Not a Bird (1966). A Love Affair: Tragedy of a Switchboard Operator(1967), WR: Mysteries of the Organism(1971), and Sweet Movie(1974). Recognized for the vitality and independence of his hotch potch style--juxtaposing science and eroticism, matching up a switchboard operator with a rat exterminator--Makavejev is an exciting addition to Harvard's film department. He will...
Just trying to explain the plot of Gondoliers, the Gilbert and Sullivan fall production scheduled to open at the Agassiz Decemeber 1, is a mistake. It begins simply enought with two Venetian gondolier brothers falling in love with and marrying two peasant girls in the first act. But then the trouble starts. One of these brothers turns out to be the lost king of Barataria but, good Venetian egalitarians that they are, neither of the supposed brothers wants to be the ruler or knows which actually is. All of which gives them good reason to rule Barataria together and gives...
...mistake. However, other plays being produced this season do fit (at least as well as any other would) into my scheme. Kirkland House is dong The Fantastiks, that longest running of musicals where the characters, a boy and girl who live next door, look far and wide for love only to conclude that there's no place like home. Lowell will probably be producing A Thousand Clowns, that irrepressible story about a non-conformist who hates to work but does it anyway in order to retain custody of the nephew he loves. North House might be producing Clay, an original...
...course catalogue and throws them down the stairs, looking only at those that land on alternate steps. A Lowell House junior said he simply follows the crowds. Yesterday he wandered into Astro 8, "Cosmic Evolution," along with another 400 or so spacey folks, and fell in love with the music-and-slide presentation--although he says he isn't interested in stars at all. Another senior could not be reached for comment yesterday, because--as has been his wont for the last two years--he plans to stay home until next Tuesday. The ambitious fellow will then fill...
