So, naturally, when Big Bird, that one-of-a-kind canary, mysteriously vanishes from his home at 123 Sesame Street, more than a few feathers are ruffled.

Opening Night tick- ets are being sold through the CCNB Banks: The Film Society of the Wilkes- Barre Campus of the Pennsylvania State University will present its film series this year centering around the theme of great novels made into film. The 12 movies selected - Six in the Fall and six in the Spring - represent both some of the world’s finest novels and some of the world’s finest film makers. In keep- ing with their interest in interna- tional cinema, the society has selected films and novels from the United States, Italy, Germany, Great Britain, Russia, and Czec- choslovakia. Many viewers will already be familiar with the novels and since film is an inherently different artistic medium, it is hoped they will derive from this series ‘a new perspective or new insight on th theme of the work. The first film, shown on Septem- ber 12, 7 p.m., will be Milos Forman’s film version of Ken Kesey’s One Flew Over the Cukoo’s Nest, starring Jack Nicholson, Louise Fletcher, and Will Sampson. In 1975, this movie swept all of the major Academy awards and it depicts the rather crazy attempt of R.P. McMurphy to wake up the patients of a mental hospital to the fact that the difference between sanity and insanity is only society’s drive to stifle individualism. The novel remains a classic statement from the 1960s of social rebellion. On September 26, The Devils, Ken Russell’s film adaptation of the novel by Aldous Huxley, will be shown. The story takes place in 1634 and is a fairly accurate account priest unustly accused of sorcery by a group of secually obsessed nuns, led by a hunchedback Mother Supe- rior. Leading roles are played by Oliver Reed and Vanessa Redgrave. On October 10, Volker Schlon- dorff’s cinematic translation of Gunter Grass’ The Tin Drum will be the feature. This Cannes and Acad- emy Award winning film is the story of Oskar, a young Polish boy who after witnessing the horrors of the Nazi invasion of Poland, his mother’s infidelity, and father’s cru- elty, refuses to grow past the age of three. But his mind continues to grow as he shrewdly observes and condemns the world around him. The fourth film, on October 24, is Peter Brook’s filming of The Perse- cution and Assassination of Jean- Paul Marat as Performed by the Inmates of the Asylum of Charenton Under the Direction of the Marquis de Sade (usually just called Marat: Sade). The movie is based upon the play by Peter Weiss and depicts the final days in the life of Marat, the famou leader of the French Revolu- tion, as he and de Sade argue over the idealism of the Revolution. The movie stars Patrick Magee, Glend Jackson, Ian Richardson and the Royal Shakespeare Company. i On November 14, The Trial from Franz Kafka’s novel will be shown. It is an extravagantly expressionis- tic film made by Orson Welles.
