Losing out with
By DREW BOGEMA
James Goldstone and Howard Rodman-
recent graduates from television film-
making--have directed and written a
movie: Winning, now playing at the State.
The movie makes it; not big, but, still, we
are given an enjoyable episode in the saga
of the American race-car driver. It doesn't
compare with Red Line 7000 or Grand
Prix--its rivals of late in the Hollywood
mania to make the automobiel a full-
fledged, real-life character. It doesn't make
it because of its script or because of its
direction, which are terrible at worst and.
tolerable at best. It makes it only because'
Paul Newm n plays the lead, bringing to a
clay role is enormous talent and sen-
tivity. He plays two roles really: the rugged,
determined, hard-boiled driver, and, the
shy, compassionate, quiet, and lonely
figure off the track. His 'performance is
one that gives us that rare treat of being
able to say that he, as a character, is real.
Stanley Kauffmann claims that Gold-
stone and Winning transmit the sensations
and impulses of speed better than Franken-
heimer did in Grand Prix. Kauffmann's
wrong. Only one scene in Winning comes
close to the photographic brilliance of
Grand Prix. This is the scene where New-
man pulls ahead of the leading car and
wins the Indy 500. Of course .it's the last
lap. Of course Newman started seventeenth
in the race and plays the hero as under-
dog. Of course Newman's chief competition
throughout most of the race is the guy he
found sleeping with his wife two days
earlier.
But this is incidental. Newman rides the
left-rear-tire of the lead car, and as they
hit the oval curve immediately before the
final straightaway and checker-flag, he
slides through, after several unsuccessful
tension-ridden attempts, the narrow open-
ing between his opponent's car and the
grass infield, taking the straightway at
open'throttle. In a sense the scene was very
similar to the one in Bullitt, a movie Gold-
stone and Rodman were clearly very im-
pressed with.
And then there's another, not a highly-
charged race car scene, mind you, but
rather just a well-directed scene. Gold-
stone and Rodman portray the racing cir-
cuit as a very oppressive, lonely, sterile,
phony,, in a word; uptight, place, and New-
man; as hero, does combat with these
forces. After winning a race in a small
town called Redford, Newman gets drunk,
strolls through the streets, and picks up
an Avis rent-a-car girl. They spree over
a period of weeks, an affair which ends in
marriage. There is no love here, only
loneliness, and as the circuit has beaten
and crushed the soul of the driver, its
demands and allures upon Newman crush
the marriage. Before qualification at the
Indy, Newman returns to his motel early,
only to find his wife in bed with his co-
driver.
Newman opens the door, in warm ex-
pectation of giving his wife some of the
scarce time she has desired of him ever
since they both took on the circuit. Seeing
the couple, Newman stops, self-consciously
closing the door, and stares at the scene
in bed. He takes two steps toward then as
his face gives rise to a rapid succession
of reactions: shock, pain, and futility take
hold of his emotions. He backs up to the
door, and after a long gaze of despair, he
leaves. This is real: Rodman's tiresome and
cliched dialogue are fortunately not per-
mitted to enter this sanctuary.
Vinning.
Goldstone and Rodman try to bring us
more of this, but the grandeur and glory of
the track, the tale of a victory at Indy
(such a delight to the comman man and
the suburb people), prevent them. Newman
(an acclaimed director in his own right
for Rachel, Rachel) probably would have
liked to explore in greater depth the rela-
tionship between his wife's background and
her lack of self-control when placed into
the highly competitive and harsh atmos-
phere that is the racing circuit. But the
requisites of filming a movie on Indy,
meaning a sizeable number of shots from
the actual event in order to illustrate
"realism", ruin any chance for scenes that
impress us as "true" to real life.
One must really pity the lack of ima-
gination evident in Goldstone at times
Every one of the spectators appear upper-
middle in socio-class status. When Gold-
stone and Rodman go beyond the story-
line of Newman and the track, when they
try to make a gallery look like a gallery, a
bar look like a bar, they fail. All we have
is good ole' middle-class chicishness.
Everyone is an obnoxious ass, everyone a
clown, except for Newman. Only Newman is
silent, reserved, discreet. Out of this "si-
lence" we respect him. But we respect the
character because of Newman's ability to
make the appropriate gesture or facial ex-
pression at the right time rather than the
director's idea of climate.
Facial-expression pre-empts cheap dia-
logue in Newman's book, and his wisdom
shows, itself constantly: the anguish of
victory, the difficulty of sharing emotions
with his wife, the bitterness and hatred
he feels for his co-driver. And this is where
movies are to be made.
And this is why Newman makes it.

ston Hughes will be held tonight

fees for funding of the facilities!
which revealed that 57 per centI
of students favor the plan.
However, the survey only, asks
whether students would accept
funding through "student fees"
and does not indicate that a tui-
tion increase would be necessary.
In addition, the survey was con-
ducted by a physical education
class learning how to conduct sur-
veys and no one was aware at the
time that the IM board was going
to use the survey.
Van Der Hout said that the IM
board and its chairman, athletic
committee pulled "a raunchy deal"
by holding closed meetings con-
cerning the funding of the intra-
mural facilities.
Stu Katz, spokesman for the
Tenants Union, said that students
should have had a role from the
beginning in the findings of the
IM committee.
