	Joshua Logan's "Fanny" vs Pagnol's (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The 1961 film came to the screen via a Broadway version, so Logan and company cannot be blamed for the adaptation; they apparently were merely presenting what movie audiences expected to see when a stage version already had a reputation.
		The 1961 film sunders this aspect of the original entirely by making Fanny's son be a mere eight years old at the time of the death of Panisse (the elderly merchant who had married Fanny after she had begun carrying Marius's child).
		In the 1961 version, Panisse (played by Maurice Chevalier) is alive at the time of the search for Marius; in the original, it had been Panisse's death early in the third installment that had led to the revelation of the false paternity and the search that followed from this knowledge.

	El Cid (1961) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		This was the kind of film that 70mm was made for.
		When one king challenges El Cid's monarch, Heston volunteers to fight to the death to determine the fate of the city of Calahorra, and at the same time vindicate himself of the treason he was accused of by Loren's father.
		It is here that one of the great battle scenes takes place, actually filmed in the shadow of the walled city of Peniscola on the coast of Spain.

	Brian De Palma - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		De Palma is often cited as a leading member of the generation of film directors, a distinct pedigree who either emerged from film schools or are overtly cine-literate.
		Following a disastrous Hollywood foray, in which his next film was reedited by Warner Bros., De Palma returned to independent film.
		His films also frequently feature characters changing their hair colour from blonde to brunette and vice versa.

	Maya Deren
		Alongside the various thematic motifs in her films (psychological states, sexuality, surrealism), she is recognised for her work in theorising film form, and exploiting notions of space, time and movement on film.
		The film is rich in mythological references, to which the film maker adds her own layer of meaning.
		She never completed the film of the same name which she worked on, but this was edited after her death by her widower Teiji Ito and his second wife Cheryl.

	Political Film Society - The Tunnel (Der tunnel)
		Some spies and counterspies died, of course, but a major battlefront was in Berlin after the wall was erected in 1961.
		The film The Tunnel (Der tunnel), an expurgated version of a three-hour German television production directed by Roland Suso Richter, is an account of an effort to build an escape route from West Berlin into East Berlin.
		Much of the early part of film develops the personalities of the tunnel diggers and their families on the other side of the Berlin Wall, but the most gripping part of the movie is the digging and the efforts to avoid detection by East German authorities, as personified by Oberst Kruger (played by Uwe Kockisch).

	"The 1961 Beatles Film" by Richard Porter
		It is the earliest known film of the Beatles and pre-dates the previously known earliest film (of the Fabs at the Cavern) by over 18 months.
		Although the current owner didn't know when the film was shot, it has been possible to date the film by focusing in on a Valentine's Day heart that appears fleetingly.
		In the historic film, the Beatles are wearing leather clothes which were inspired by Stu's fiancee Astrid and her friends.

	101 Dalmatians (1961)
		The film was something of a departure for Disney in that it utilized a more cartoony, less realistic style of animation; no, the strokes weren't as broad as those we'd see from wilder shorts such as those from Warner Bros., but Disney's typically more naturalistic approach was not on view.
		By no stretch of the imagination would I state that the film lacks heart - the interactions of the dogs can be touching at times - but it's clear that the emphasis is on broad humor and thrills, not on warmth and tenderness.
		IMDB indicate that the film was shot 1.37:1 but "intended" to be seen 1.75:1.

	Film History of the 1960s
		His most acclaimed film at the time was the chilling, political spy thriller/fl comedy based on Richard Condon's novel The Manchurian Candidate (1962).
		It was a stark fl-and-white film that starred Laurence Harvey as a Korean War hero/veteran ("the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known...") who was brain-washed by the Communists, and upon his return to the US was programmed to kill on command and attempt a political assassination.
		His next film was one of the most whimsical of the late 60s films that symbolized the anti-war, counter-cultural movement.

	Film Adaptation: Lolita
		While the film and book are both excellent and are worthy of consideration as works of art, the story of the process of the adaptation is as interesting as the texts themselves.
		The credits for the film list Nabokov as the screenwriter, but Kubrick departed so significantly from the author's work that Nabokov published his own version of the Lolita screenplay.
		The piece serves to balance the debate between Nabokov and Kubrick, and it emphasizes the explicit alterations made between the text and the film.

	Lola / 1961 / film review / Jacques Demy / Anouk Aimee
		This is a quaint film, in the mould of the New Wave in which director Jacques Demy was to thrive.
		Throughout the film, one feels that one is sailing leisurely along in the white Cadillac of the mysterious stranger which opens the film.
		Still, this is a pleasing film to watch and one that is very, very evocative of the New Wave era of French cinema.

	At-A-Glance Film Reviews: Yojimbo (1961)
		The story has been told in movies several times -- in A Fistful of Dollars as a gritty western, in Karate Warriors as a martial arts film, in The Warrior and the Sorceress as a swords-and-sorcery fantasy, and not until Last Man Standing in novel's original setting.
		Kurosawa is a master of filming adventure stories with themes of honor and justice, and Yojimbo is one of his most beloved movies, with fights, chases, and schemes aplenty, and enough time in between and during for building compelling nuanced characters.
		The cinematography is gorgeous and helps establish a unique flavor that is just right for this story: though the town is build out in the middle of a desert, the realm of the character themselves feels claustrophobic.

		The play was made into a 1936 film, but the Hayes Commission forced the nature of the affair to be changed into a heterosexual love triangle, and would not allow the film to keep the same name as the controversial play it was based on; the title was changed to These Three.
		In 1961 the play was again brought to the screen, this time with Audrey Hepburn and Shirley MacLaine in the main roles.

	Viridiana / 1961 / film review / Luis Bunuel / Luis Buñuel
		The film was also one of his most controversial, being banned in Spain immediately after it won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes film festival, and creating a scandal in Italy, where an order was issued for Buñuel's arrest if ever he set foot in the country.
		Viridiana’s own small attempts to do good are a spectacular failure compared with Jorge’s lesser attempts, the difference being that Viridiana is doing good as a conscious effort to follow her religious beliefs, whereas Jorge is governed by basic humanitarian responses (for example, the scene where he rescues an ill-treated dog).
		Honest the film may be; subtle, it is not.
