NEW FILMS

The following films are now available for loan from the Douglas College
Library:

Scared Straight!

* Convicts who combat crime are unique -- and so are the results they achieve.
This riveting documentary, narrated by Peter Falk, shows how a group of
hardened criminals serving life sentences convince young delinquents to

obey the law. 80 - 90% of the kids who participate in this highly successful
program go straight. As the cameras follow a group of young offenders through
the State Penitentiary, we come face to face with the realities of prison
life. "Scared Straight" is not a film for all audiences. Undisguised
brutality and graphic street language provide shock therapy for those who
can't be reached in other ways. 1978 53 min.

Special Delivery

The first big mistake Ralph makes is not clearing the snow from the front
walk, and his life goes downhill from that point on. By the end of the story,
the mailman has slipped on his job; Alice his wife doesn't live there

anymore and Ralph himself resolves to stop worrying - about the body, his
wife, and the front walk. 1978 7 min.

Metamorphosis of Mr. Samsa

 

A film based on Franz Kafka's short story The Metamorphosis, this story is
told through the animation of beach sand on a piece of glass. An imaginative
sound track and innovative art work combine to recreate a Kafka-esque world
of guilt and alienation. Sound film without commentary. 1977 10 min.
