Page Two THE MICHIGAN DAILY Saturday, June 14, 1969 Iage Two THE MICHIGAN DAILY cinema" poetry and prose Studentask #I 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. Tribute to hlonor Laugston Hughes "mSi referendum on IM A tribute to the late Lang- ston Hughes will be held tonight at 8 p.m. in Rackham Lecture Hall for the benefit of a Lang- ston Hughes Scholarship Fund being established at the Univer- sity. Hughes. a black poet, play- wright and humorist who died two years ago, left. among his effects a suggestion for the tribute he would prefer friends to have for him. After a half-hour of recorded music, including a new issue of Hughes' Weary Blues-read by the late author to a jazz ac- companiment by Leonard Feath- er-friends of Hughes able to communicateexpressions of re- gard in person, by telegram, song, dance and taped message will be presented. Among these friends will be Dizzy Gillespie, Duke Ellington, Harold McKinney, Soupy Sales, Vera 'Enbree, Allan Ward, Jeanne Bates Frankel, Vic Da- mone and poets Robert Hayden, Margaret Danner, Oliver La- Grone; Naomi Long Madgett, Dudley Randall and Rosey Pool. The program is being spon- sored by the Ann Arbor Asso- ciates for Productive Education- al Experiences-graduate stu- dents in adult education. Tickets cost $2 for general ad- mission; elementary and second- ary students with identification may attend for $1. Tickets will not be sold at the door but are available at the Union, League and-at Discount Records, as uell as from black history instructors in the public schools. Tickets are also being sold in De roit for the event.

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.
