EPIC FILM NOT.
LONG ENOUGH
FOR DIRECTOR

MONTREAL (CP) — Few directors will ever have a
chance to make a film lasting four hours-and.37 minutes,
and then complain it was too short to do justice to the
subject matter.

That is, unless the director is Masaki Kobayashi, who
réleased the English-language version of his $16-million

-epic documentary, The Tokyo Trial, at the current

Montreal: World Film Festival.

.. “It is impossible to make a movie only 277 minutes
long on a subject so vast,” said the 69-year-old Kobayashi,
considered one of the great film ‘directors of post-war

Japan.

“I would have liked it to be longer by two or three
hours,” he replied curtly to one reporter who wanted to
know if Kobayashi planned a shorter, more digestible,
version for mass audiences.

The film, which Kobayashi considers his most
important in a career marked by anti-war classics, brings
together archive material never seen before, covering 17

The Tokyo Trial itself, which saw 28 of Japan's
“Class A war criminals” put in the dock, never quite had
the emotional impact of the’ one taking place in
Nuremburg at about the same time.

DROPS BOMBS
—, The difference was:that two large clouds literally
hung over the Tokyo trial. Only a short time before the
trial, atomic bombs had been dropped on Hiroshima and
Nagaski forcing Japan's surrender.

The horror of the A-bombs did much to dissipate the
guilt that many Japanese should have felt for the war
crimes committed in their names by the Japanese
Imperial Army.

The challenge to Kobayashi, best known for The
Human Condition trilogy of films and Kawaidan, was how
to make a serious documentary “that wouldn't put the
audience to sleep” — or the film-maker for that matter.

The final version, a trimmed-down mix of 340 hours}.
-of original footage of the trial and various Japanese

military campaigns, goes back and forth*between the
courtropm and the circumstances susrounding each one of
the charges against the defendants.

Kobayashi also manages to quéstion the Wasis of the
trial used to condemn the cream ofdapan' 's military and
political leadership.

Why, he asks, was Emperor Hirohito never charged?

Were guilty pleas di to avoid the scut
of the trial?

How could the Americans charge the Japanese with
war crimes when they had just dropped « two, atomic.
bombs’ on them?

And, why were 45 of the 55 charges/in ‘the original
indictment dismissed or not dealt with?

Political considerations aside, the Tokyo trial had all.

the elements of a showcase event meant to educate a
war-numbed Japanese public to the evils of Shinto
militarism.

Shot simultaneously by several cameras from
different angles, the footage affords the viewer several
glimpses of the human forces at work during the trial,
such as the stunned look on former dictator Hideki Tojo's
face after a fellow defendant“hit him on the he#é from
behind. .

It could have been either a_ playful gesture or the
venting of anger.

There are also genuine moments
the emotional outburst of one Fi
survived the Bataan Death March.

Oddly enough, the filmi begins. with the Americans
dropping the atomi¢ bomb and ends by depicting some of
the atrocities committed during the Vietnam war. -

WANTS BROADER AUDIENCE ~

By KIRK LaPOINTE
The Canadian Press

CBC's Radio and Stereo services, hampered by
budget cuts and concerned their audience averages age
50, will introduce 45 hours of new programs in the coming
season in what radio chief Margaret Lyons calls the most
significant network changes in a decade.

Although Lyons insisted at a Toronto news
conference this week that “we're not appealing. to
Yuppies,” the changes signal that CBC wants a broader
audienc® that inclides younger ptople. :

* On Saturday nights, its Radio service will feature a
two-hour rock show, 4 two-hour baby: boomer music
program and what promises to be, an offbeat hour
featuring Toronto Sun cloumnist Gary Dunford.

Lyons, vice-president in charge of CBC's English
% ‘radio networks, said budget cuts of almost five per cent

“his year will force the Radio and Stereo «services to

shelve many special programs. A daytime serial drama
cand a series of programs on the Pacific Rim are now on

hold.
But she majntains the changes, effective the week of

Sept. 80, “are a definite impsovement” on the existing

schedule — not just a definite saving — and played down

suggestions the radio networks are trimming arts,
~ multicultural and native affairs programming.
The Steréo changes, include:

e Introducing State of the Arts, a two-hour program

Martin, a publisher and frequent children's books
columnist for.the Toronto Globe and Mail.

e A new, yet-untitled,,one-hdur show on ethical
issues to be broadcast Sundays beginning Jan. 5, with
host Peter Meggs, replacing Testament and Celebration.

he takes off at the end of the
year. “I don't know any other
way,” he said.

Much of his time is spent
picking the songs for the one
album he releases every
eight months. He estimates
he listens to 2,500 new songs
to choose the best 10 for each
LP. :

“I pick a song a woman will
like for sure,” he said.
“Women are more sensitive
and get the point quicker! I
like a song that says the
things a man wants to say
and doesn’t know: how to say
it.
“I'm a fan too; I like what
the fans like. I believe that's
why I can pick the songs.
I have a fan's-ear.”

Twitty had a streak of
more than 30 straight No. 1
country hits until 1977, when

Twitty keeps low profile

Twitty, the son of a’ Mis-
sissippi River boat captain,
was born in Friars Point,
Miss., and raised in Helena,
Ark. His real name is Harold
Jenkins, but he changed it
before his career unfolded,
taking Conway from Conway,
Ark., and Twitty from Twit-
ty, Tex.

His father taught him his
Tirst’ musical chords on a
small guitar when he was
only four years old. On Sat-
urday ‘nights, his family
would gather around the
radio to listen to the Grand
Ole Opry.

However, before show
business beckoned, Twitty
had a strong interest in
sports. He was offered a con-
tract to play baseball for the
Philadelphia Phillies after he
graduated from high school.
He was a 60. hitting cen-

BEGINS MARCH

A separate crowd of 2,000
people of’ all races began
marching from Hewat Teach-
ers College toward Polls-
moore, some 25 kilometres
away.

They walked five abreast
for about 15 minutes before

riot police blocked their path
and ordered them to dis-
perse. The marchers sat
down in the road while the
march leaders,-a group of
clergymen of all races, locked
arms.

The protesters broke into

police waded in with whips
and truncheons, arresting
the clergymen and firing tear

fleeing crowd.

“It's trying to keep the sea

“We stand here because

we cannot do otherwise,” he
said. “We don't have guns
... We just.stand here as

complete opposition to the
system in this country —

people.”

Hours before the marches,
police and soldiers sealed off
thé neighborhood around
Athlone Stadium where the
demonstrators intended to
gather.

Security forces refused to
allow anyone near the sports’
complex. About 300 people
sang freedom songs and hec-
kled police from behind a
