...Hawks being the prime example of a victim of creeping "classicism"). Strictly speaking there are two classical directors, Griffith and Eisenstein, both of whom continue to exert a major influence over all narrative film-making. In one sense all narrative is "classical" in that cutting dependent on continuity of movement is basic montage (two shots put together to imply a nonexistent visual relationship) and consequently follows the teaching of Eisenstein and Griffith. Shooting styles, however, are more varied, and part of Ford's glory lies in the ease with which he employs almost all shooting styles...
...ordering. The grouping of the townspeople around the levy in the first few shots suggests harmonies confirmed in the unified behavior of the lynch mob and the choir in front of the church. The scenes of Confederate and GAR veterans' meetings emphasize the auditorium corridors, the deliberateness of physical movement through them, and the relationship of the auditorium seats to the main speaker and the flags that surround him.

...members of SDS who wrote the leaflet could have urged students to refuse cooperation with my study on ethical grounds. They could have argued, first, that as a political movement SDS seeks to conceal certain information about its tactics and successes (or failures), and, second, that it values political ends more than scholarly ends. Such a statement would have raised the larger issue of whether social science can coexist with social change. This problem will cause much reflection about the aims and methods of social science, and discussion of it in no way challenges academic freedom. But when the issues...
