The Lvaven Cabal Ca " I hv Medicine 1 5 ill Caravan" is both a ''. ' !-. ert " ni'ivie and a "trip" movie. I ' i I e l 1 1 ri nn the one hand the V, i , 1 1 1 s t ( ) t V.

I'.il although "liasy Rider" and "WiKulslmk" were somewhat revolutionary films, "Ihe Medicine Ball ''.navan." beneath its veneer of psy c hed e I ically painted buses and i on s'-li nied musicians, is about as it 'lutionjry as " The Sound of Music" -r. .is movie critic I'juline Kael would ly. the Sound of Money. ( ) k iisibly, the film is about a group i San I ranscisco freaks who outfit vVeial busses for a trans-continental party and then take off for Washington. I rom occasional remarks recorded in .emi-dotumentary fasion, it seems that they are yoing either to turn on America j pi tod music, to turn on the people to new ideas, or simply to turn on. It dnesn't really matter. 1 lie trip and the surrounding countryside are recorded with due sophistication. A grey-haze filter diffuses color in an early morning shot of the 'uisses crossing a bridge. There is the by now de ngeur use of a gaseous distortion to rive the appearance of vapors rising bclore the image, and frequent split-screen and multiple image effects (a !a ""Woodstock") in the concert scenes.

First, the life style it presents, despite its unabashed glamor (tie-dyed tepees and Ldenic bathing scenes) is no longer fresh or exciting. There is no joy anymore in watching colorful hippies flashing peace signs to cruising Middle-America. Also, the music, apart from B.B. King, is just not very good. Finally, director Francois Reichenbach intrudes every now and then with ridiculous cinema verite interviews that destroy whatever tone the film is otherwise able to muster. He treats his subjects - both the trippers and the characters they meet along the way - as local color objects, to be assaulted with poignant questions like "Why do you grow your hair long?" Unfortunately, this exploitative tone of Reichenbach pervades the film. It is an undercurrent throughout the first part of the trip, and rears its ugly head when the trippers get to Antioch College, where some serious young radicals protest the entire "let's make a hippie travel movie" philosophy. They refuse to allow the concert on their campus, and the confrontation soon erupts into the kind of knife-flashing episode for which Altamont has become a byword. The filmmakers, obviously surprised by the students' refusal to be expoited, make a quick about-face. The fact that Warner Brothers has sponsored the tour is allowed to surface (all the musicians are on the WB label), and the ensuing claims The Daily Tar Heel is published by the University of North Carolina Student Publications Board, daily except Sunday, examination periods, vacations and summer periods.

Ironically, the scenes at Antioch are the most interesting in the film, precisely because the students, unlike the trippers, are not "beautiful people." Their earnest refusal to be exploited gives "Medicine Ball Caravan" whatever life it has. and this is the biggest rip-off of all. "THE HLLLSTROM CHRONICLE" is a documentary on the world of the bug. Caterpillars, ants, termites, bees and other insects too latmate to remember are photographed exquisitely and in dramatic full-screen detail. There is a sense of wonder at the intricacy of these creatures, alone and in their "social" organizations and for this renewed awareness of another world within our own, the "Hellstrom Chronicle" is worth seeing. Unfortunately, there's another side to the film. For it is not merely a documentary, but a polemic. We are introduced to one Nils Hellstrom, Ph.D., who is out to prove to us the superiority of the insect over man to ultimately survive. And, like all polemicists, Hellstrom is a little free with his facts.

VELL. pi Mzri VlA b Adrian Scott Fezrurc Wr.:cr " I n very excited to be dcir.g it ... it s a bit of a new venture for the Opera Theatre to sponsor a nuincal by itself." Robert Porco. musical director of the tNC Opera Theatre production of "Fiddler cn the Roof is optimistic about the show, which is about half way through rehearsal. "Fiddler on the Roof is the third production that Robert Porco has staged with the group, and is part of a process of modernization which began with Mozart's "Marriage of Figaro" two years ago and continued with "The Ballad of Baby Doe" last year. Anyone who knows "Fiddler" will appreciate that it is a very difficult show to stage, involving both singing and dancing, often at the same time. Porco had considerable difficulty in casting the present production for that very reason, offered as proof that insects must, in the end, prevail. What is closer to the truth, is that the use of pesticides threatens to make the world unliveable for man. If insects ever do inherit the earth, it will probably not be because pesticides have failed to kill all the bugs, but because they have succeeded in killing too many of the insects' natural enemies. Just as regrettable is Hellstrom's tendency to pretentious anthropomorphisms. To impose imagination, a soul, and sin on the insect is to misrepresent the nature of insects as well as of men. When Hellstrom comments that because mayflies never ask the question "What is Life," they know the answer ("To live!"), he is demonstrating the simplemindedness that mars even his most potentially telling arguments. One comes away from this movie feeling that the apocalyptic vision has been forced upon visually impressive documentary footage to make it "relevant." Yet, it is the cinematography that makes the show. If you can forget Doomsday and enjoy the spectacle on the screen, "Hellstrom Chronicle" should satisfy your interest in bugs for quite a while.

The Opera Theatre. he Rar.cer. Rancer has an interesting history as an actor. He is the owner of a scrap metal processing business in. Chapel Hill, and is knon for his expertise m creating metal sculptures. He has been acting for only three years, since he uas 55. In the last three ears. hoeer. he has built up an increasing reputation for himself n dramatic circles, appearing m Chapel Hill (Christopher Sly in "Taming of the Shrew") as well as m Durham. Ohio. Atlanta, and in New England. Playing opposite him in "Fiddler" will be Isobel Samfield, who will portray Golde. Tevve's wife. Mrs. Samfield is from Durham, where she is a music teacher. She studied voice at Duke, and has appeared in concerts and light opera in the area. Other leading characters in the production will be played by Tora Heyneman (Vanta, the Matchmaker) and Earl Wynn (Lazer Wolfe). The show needs most work, according to Porco. in the area of general co-ordination. The singing and dancing have progressed well, he said, but putting the two together is more difficult. Complete run-throughs are due to begin in about a week. Porco has the aid of many people in producing "Fiddler"; notably Dorothy Silver, who is choreographing the dance scenes, and Randolph Umberger, who is directing the dramatic side of the show. Mrs. Silver is well known locally for her efforts in dance and choreography, and Umberger is Chairman of the Drama Department at North Carolina Central University. Porco cited as "indispensable" his stage manager, Gerry Sousa, who handles much of the groundwork while Porco is involved with his teaching duties w ith the Music Department. Sousa is assisted by Melissa Hardy, who has had a hand on the technical side of many UNC productions. The Opera Theatre is having some problems with the technicalities of the production.
