	The Story of "In the First Place"
		The film was shot in 1967 by a London-based American director, Joe Massot, who was deeply entrenched in the Swingin’ London of the era.
		The film - which was a heavily psychedelized impressionistic fable featuring the young Jane Birkin - premiered in London on January 20, 1969 - but it was not a commercial success and fell from distribution rapidly.
		That was the year that Noel Gallagher writer/guitarist of the band Oasis happened to see the film on one of its occasional middle-of-the-night TV airings and became fascinated with the movie and its music.

		Now the psychedelic relic that time really forgot is back, duly "restored" to full audiovisual impact (which may vary depending on each viewer's ability to revisit ye olde inner astral plane, with or without chemical assistance).
		Thin as a spiderweb strand dangling from the windmills of your mind, the film's "plot" involves an old-school nutty professor (Irish actor Jack MacGowan, doing the whole stock Alfalfa-haired, four-eyed, furniture-colliding Einstein bit) who spies very trippy goings-on in the ultramod apartment next door.
		Amid all the Peter Max-like eye candy devised by Dutch design group the Fool (lime green luxury car, imaginary death by giant lipstick tube), there's exotica for the ears: Harrison's mix of sitar, psychedelia, and pop is a heady treat.

	Wonderwall (1968) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		While the film footage was in reasonable shape, the optical soundtrack had degraded to the point where it was nearly unrecoverable.
		'Wonderwall' was one of four 'alternative-cinema' films to debut at the newly opened:'CINECENTA' multi-complex off Leicester Square in January 1969.
		The Film is too chic and it retains no style.Jane Birkin is flamboyant and exotic but she doesn't have a single word of dialogue.(Except some gibberish heard when the Professor eavesdrops).I assume this was intentional BUT a bad decision.Not hearing Jane Birkin speak makes her even more Kewpie-doll and a window-dressed mannequin throughout this movie.

		Most striking is the sense that the film seems to have been made by young people with really no idea of how older people live their lives.
		That wouldn't be a great problem, except that the film itself takes the generation gap as its central feature: how an older man living a boring, empty, unfulfilling life glimpses (but cannot participate in) the colorful, uninhibited, sensual lives of younger people.
		On the other hand, while the film is clearly enamored with the hip glamor of youth and beauty, it also suggests that young people bridge the gender gap principally to have sex with each other.

	Great Lost Movies: Wonderwall
		'Wonderwall' is less concerned with a story than it is about an event and observes it with as much detachment as MacGowran studies the bacteria under his microscope.
		I don't think filmgoers need to dig for a message to endorse 'Wonderwall' - it's enough that the film was pretty much overlooked in the era it was made and the cultural capital invested in it years later reclaimed it iconographically.
		In other words, the main reason to see Wonderwall 'now' is because it is a film that could only have been made 'then'.

	Dance Craze (1982) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Sadly the film sticks to concert footage and there are no backstage interviews with the bands, this was a real opportunity missed as a documentary style film would have been a wonderful document of the 2-Tone movement.
		The film gives it's audience no time to catch their breath, cutting from one song to the next in the bat of an eye, this is where backstage footage could have vastly improved the movie.
		Half way through the film there is a somewhat odd intermission, fl and white footage featuring old dances such as the Locomotion, the Twist and so on appears, maybe fitting in with the films theme, but hardly appealing to the 2-Tone audience who would pay at the door.

		WONDERWALL: Film Review This recently-released 1965 art film is being billed as a "lost classic of psychedelic surrealism".
		Yet the infatuated professor discovers that despite her glamorous lifestyle, the beautiful woman may be even less happy than himself.
		The only drug references are the polychromatic psychedelic murals inside the model's apartment, a scene of her smoking a hookah, and the letters "L" and "D" positioned above and below the "S" logo on the shirt of a Superman costume.

		Many of the stars who are interviewed for the film, like Blur's Damon Albarn and Pulp's Jarvis Cocker, are seen ruefully looking back at events that made their lives hell and strangled their creativity.
		For the filming, Dower took his interviewees to the places with which they are most associated - Noel Gallagher speaks from a huge throne-like chair in Knebworth House and Cocker sits on a single bed in a sleazy motel.
		But the stars of the show are Oasis tribute band Wonderwall, who open the film and whose "Liam" and "Noel" are seen drinking cheap supermarket lager first thing in the morning and bickering like the Gallaghers themselves.

	Wonderwall
		Wonderwall the film began shooting in 1967 and would become a snapshot of swinging London at it's height.
		Not much, perhaps, to elevate the film beyond the ranks of everyother psychedelic cash-in of the day.
		But add in a bit of Beatle fairydust in the shape of a George Harrison soundtrack (and the fact, apart from a rare airing on British ITV regions in the mid-nineties, the film has not been seen since 1968) and you have the stuff of (minor) legend.

		Wonderwall, a Pops Orchestra version of the Oasis song, took the top spot while Pulp is relegated to second.
		The film also thinks it is a movie about the awfulness of war, even though its lighthearted tone makes war seem actually kind of fun and exciting, unless of course you are a showboating ignorant and selfish ass who does something stupid during the finale.

	Wonderwall Music by George Harrison (lyrics & reviews)
		This was a great starting point to George Harrison's solo career, and also a reflection of the times that spawned it (as well as the film); a colorful slice-of-time piece of classic psychedelia, very much of it's time, but also very much ahead of it.
		Harrison arguably is the sole purveyor of the use of Indian music and Middle-Eastern influences in his (and that of The Beatles) music.
		With the exception of the track "Singing Om", there are no vocals or lyrics to be found on this album, but that's the magic of it; it doesn't need vocals or lyrics to be effective in grabbing (and keeping) your attention.

	The Austin Chronicle Screens: American Cinematheque's Universal Appeal
		The sheer stylistic variety of this three-film mini-fest is enough to demonstrate the Cinematheque's catholic tastes, from the morbid Wisconsin Death Trip to the sweetly naïve Swinging London fantasia Wonderwall to the arthouse/exploitation hybrid Female Convict Scorpion.
		Screening March 6, Wonderwall is enlivened by both flamboyantly groovy fashions and hilariously cosmic set designs by Incredible String Band fellow-travelers the Fool, but it's also unflatteringly dated by a thick, goopy strata of sentimental hippy-dippy whimsy.
		Her film, on the other hand, speaks loudly for why organizations like the American Cinematheque are so essential.
