The Spike [: or, Victoria University College Review 1957]

Film Society

Film Society

The V.U.C. Film Society was founded on 12 April 1956, and early in the year was affiliated to the Wellington Film Society. This Society's object is to enable students to see first class films which are no longer publicly shown. During 1956 a number of films were shown, ranging from early classics such as the Russian film The Battlehip Potenikin, a landmark in the technical art of the film, to a Rene Clair comedy and Charlie Chaplin. Other films shown were Nanook of the North, a film about Eskimo life, and The Diary of a Country Priest, a French film based on the novel by Bernanos.
