First-Class Films

Sir,—I thought your editorial in the last issue of Salient (about the Victoria University Film Society) rather effusive, so decided to find out for myself what ail the fuss was about by going along to the Now screening.

Now I am not one of those people who talk about "Film" with hushed voice, so I expected to sit through a series of boring and perhaps surrealistic items in a state of frustration and boredom. I am, therefore, very pleased to tell you that what I saw was a first-class presentation of excellent and extremely satisfying films.

These films were as different from the usual run of first-half Junk one gets at the cinema as champagne is from Coca Cola. My congratulations to the organiser and also a promise to be there for every future screening, and a raspberry to those on the Financial Committee who can see no further than their noses. Yours faithfully,
