International films begin Sept. 10

     The University's 1995 International Film Series opens Sunday,
Sept. 10, with Burnt by the Sun, a 1995 Oscar-winning film about a
Bolshevik who has withdrawn to his country estate unaware a visitor
has come to take him to prison and to death.
     Burnt by the Sun and all other screenings in the series will
begin at 7:30 p.m. in Room 140 of Smith Hall.
     All of the screenings are free and open to the public. The rest
of the Sunday series programs in September include:
     Crumb, scheduled Sept. 17, is an uproarious and deeply disturbing
documentary about cartoonist R. Crumb. The Philadelphia Inquirer
called this 1995 U.S. film "precise, honest and powerful."
     Picture Bride, to be shown on Sept. 24, is the story of a man in
1918 who toils in the sugarcane fields of Hawaii in order to afford to
send away for a Japanese bride. The film, made in the U.S. and Japan
in 1995, won the audience award at the Sundance Film Festival.
