biting sense of irony and humor.
1t could just as wei be sense of
the tragic.
A,lot of progressives might come
along with me this far and then
say, SO what? That holds for one
or two movies a year, but what
about the stuff we go to see every
week at the neighborhood theatre?
Well, I don't pull any punches
on reviewing that stuff because
l see absolutely no reason why
progressive people should take
swill. They may want to take it
because they have no alternative,
but they ought to know before
hand what it says on the label
The critics job is not merely to
look at the bird and say, yeah,
the critter has wings-but to point
out that if the bird stretched
out his wings he'd be able to fly.
You see, the critic is standing on
mountain of past experience.
He's seen other birds fly.

No punches pulled
~
no swiH for readers

By BOB BENNETT

This week I'm going to give my
bloodied but unbowed harpoons
a rest. Instead of kicking inno-
cent movie producers while they're
down-and out-I'm going to talk
about movie reviewing.
The Inauguration of new fea-
ture On this page, the box rating
movies, seems as good an occasion
as any.
The boys who make a living at
this sort of thing treasure the Sc
crets of the trade as zealously as
do magicians. But I figure that
the people who read a progressive
paper have a right to know the
basis on which my weekly judg
ment of movies is made.
1t will give them some criteria
for judging the reviews and, in
cidentally, the movies themselves.
In this kind of project, I'M
fortunately, it's hard to steer clear
OF what have by now become
cliches. For instance, we've got to
start by putting the film art into
some kind of perspective. Well, on
the basis of the number of people
who pay to get into movie houses,
the film must be rated the most
important art form in our society.
1t is the sole cultural media for
millions and millions of people;
it is one which is readily avail
able and at price which they
can afford.
Not only that 1t is in many re-
spects the most flexible and fluid
of aesthetic mediums; it is one
that is capable of evoking ter
rifle and immediate response in
an audience and which, therefore,
has infinite potentiality for good
or bad.
What il all SINNERS down to.
as ! see ii, is that the film
makers have double responsible
itY: to sleilfully utilize an art
form which is. literally. still in
its infancy. and secondly. TO re-
member that they have social
responsibility.
The boys can boiler all they
like about just turning out canned
entertainment, but the fact is that
The Chicago star. (Chicago, Ill.) 1946-1948, 1947-10-25

duced. There are two basic rea-
sons for his greatness.
For one thing, he was an artist.
He realized that the camera was
a medium as effective as musi-
cal instrument or a paint brush.
He used it with intelligence and
understanding and ingenuity.
But all those things alone are
not enough. He is also a COM
passionate human being, human
being who looks at people steadily
and tries to understand them and
how they live, who can, in his
role as an artist, portray poig-
nantly their hopes and joys, their
Illustrations and sorrows.
Of course, this understanding,
or truth, if you will, alone is not
enough either. He is great art
ist because he is able to blend
and weave together into a mean
ingful and coherent pattern these
truths about society and tell them
artistically.
Chaplin's weapon is a sharp,

there is no such thing as pure en-
tertainment. Behind every film is
social premise. That premise is
by the lights of a progressive,
either true or false.
I think that a review in the
STAR has to- take cognizance of
that fact.
I don't think that good film
can be built on a false social pre-
mise any more than a good novel
or good painting can be. A
real artist, agree, may not be
aware of these things. He may
not be politically articulate enough
or interested enough to be able
to expound the truths, but they
are nevertheless very important
parts of his artistic equipment. He
uses them to analyze and under
stand people and the social forces
that move them.
He can use them in an infinite
number of ways-all of them ar
tistically valid. Thus, Charlie
Chaplin is, I think, the greatest
artist the screen has ever pro-

Certificates OF
Teachers To Be
Renewed l947-43
Were Not Renewed By n. G.
Legislature AS In
Past Years

The attention of teachers is
called to the fact that their GER
tificateS were not renewed by
the legislature this year as in
the past.
B. H. Duncan superintendent
of schools pointed out that the
State Board has been given the
power, by law, on renewals. He
explained that all certificates re-
quiring renewal are given one
years renewal for 1947-48 term,
but that all teachers who have
certificates that have expired,
must meet the renewal require
ments by September /, l948.
He further pointed out that
teachers should take advantage
of summer schools this summer
as well as next so that they should
be sure of validating their GER
tificates before September.
