THE FILM SOCIETY


As one might have predicted, the Film Society has become more important in the life of the school now that the Brighton cinemas are no longer so accessible. Competition is represented not by the Gaumont and Odeon but by T.V., and the breaking of the semi-hypnotic trance exerted by ' the box ' has been a long-drawn-out struggle, accompanied by histrionic groans from addicts of ' Danger Man ' and ' The Man from U.N.C.L.E.'

The feature films shown during the three terms which comprised the 1965-66 season were as follows:-

Lost Horizon, The Sheep has Five Legs, My Favourite Spy, The Grapes of Wrath, Letter from an Unknown Woman, Jane Eyre, A Matter of Life and Death, II Posto, The Mouse that Roared, Follow the Sun, Tout L'Or du Monde, Jamaica Inn, Dead of Night, Ashes and Diamonds, Inherit the Wind,- Boys will be Boys, The Dock Brief, All about Eve, Edward and Caroline, Seven Days to Noon, La Strada, The Best Man, Some Like It Hot, The Gunfighter, II Generale delta Rovere, Mr. Deeds Goes to Town, Viva Zapata, La Grande Illusion, Five Against the House, I'm All Right Jack, Zero de Condulte' Sitting Pretty, La Belle et la BPte,'Twelve Angry Men, To Be or Not to Be, The Devil's Disciple, The Trial, Red River, Woman of the Dunes, The Wages of Fear, Les Liaisons Dangereuses.
