  • 8 FEATURES September 29,1999 Kramer, Breast Feeding, & Josef Mengele on Film WESTVILLE VILLAGE, California — George C. Scott, the actor who will be forever remembered as the man who turned down an Oscar, died in his home last Wednesday. Scott had been suffering from ill health over the last few years. His death was caused by the rupture of a major blood vessel in his abdomen. Scott was 71. While it is true that Scott was seen by many in Hollywood as a gruff, unhappy actor who was a bother to work with, he will always be respected as one of the finest actors of both stage and screen. In 1970, Scott won an Oscar for his portrayal of General George Patton, but in a strange turn of events, Scott refused the award. This was not the only award Scott declined. He also refused to accept an Emmy for his work in Arthur Miller's "The Price." Scott's film credits include "The Hustler," "Dr. Strangelove," "Anatomy of a Murder," "The Hospital," and "They Might Be Giants." Scott was reported to have been working on his memoirs at the time of his death. Scott is survived by six children. HOLLYWOOD — Kramer's coming back! NBC announced this week that former "Seinfeld" sidekick Michael Richards will reunite with a trio of former "Seinfeld" writers to create a sitcom slated for production this winter. The show will have no connection to "Seinfeld." NBC has committed to a six-episode trial contract. Episodes are supposed to begin airing this February, but should problems arise in production, NBC has said they will push the show back until the 2000-01 season. Richards is the first of the "Seinfeld" stars to return to television. LONDON — On Sunday, Australian researchers added new evidence to the growing body of research concerning the health facts surrounding breast feeding. Many studies have come out recently linking breast feeding to an absence of childhood problems such as obesity, ear infections and di- compiled by arrhea. Now it seems that babies who have been breast-fed for at least the first four months of life have a reduced chance of suffering from asthma and other allergies. Dr. Wendy Oddy, of the Institute for Child Health Research in Perth, was quoted as saying, "A significant reduction in the risk of childhood asthma at age six occurs if exclusive breast feeding is continued for at least four months after birth." Oddy and her fellow research assistants studied 2,187 children in Western Australia, from birth until the age of six. BERLIN, Germany — A German film about a hypothetical trial of the Nazi concentration camp doctor, Josef Mengele, has managed to stir large amounts of controversy in the Fatherland. German film critics have been praising the film as a necessary, even cathartic, event for Germany. The film, "Nothing But the Truth," has German Jews up in arms over what they believe to be the glorification of a monster and a killer. Mengele is believed to have been directly linked to the deaths of over 400,000 people during the occupation of WWII. He was never prosecuted, and after the war, he escaped to Argen- Alex Esmon tina. He died there in 1979. The new film imagines that Mengele voluntarily returns to Germany at age 80 to defend his actions during the war. Many German films have been made that explore the actions of the Germans in WWII, but this is the first German film to deal with the concentration camps. Producer Werner Koenig said he hoped the film would shake Germany out of its complacency toward the Holocaust. "The way everyone tries to look away from the past in Germany annoys me," Koenig said. "Everyone shakes their heads and University Players Present Steve Martin's by Sarah Switzer Staff Writer Steve Martin may not visit Western anytime soon, but one of his plays is here now! University Players and the Western Carolina Communication and Theatre Arts Department present Picasso at the Lapin Agile, a comedy authored by Steve Martin, well known for his work on television and film. Winner of 1996 New York Outer Critics' Circle Awards for "Best Play" and "Best Playwright," Picasso at the Lapin Agile is set in 1903 in a bohemian Paris bistro called the Lapin Agile. The two young geniuses on the threshold of fame vie for the attentidns of a young lady and for each others respect in an hilarious battle of ideas about painting, probability, lust, and the future of the world. One year later, Albert Einstein published the Special Theory of Relativity. Three years later, Pablo Picasso painted Les Demoiselles D'Avignon. Sean Lakey stars as Einstein and Josh Cox stars as Picasso. Others in the cast include Bobbi Baker, as Picasso's mistress Suzanne, Al Wiggins, as Gaston, and Keri Adams, as Germaine. photo courtesy OPI Cafe Patron Germaine (Keri Adams) and philospher Gaston (Al Wiggins) share a moment in "Picasso at the Lapin Agile." The play is full of light-hearted humor. My favorite line from the play comes from Picasso's mistress: "I think a yo-yo would be a wonderful thing to play with, but a horrible thing to be." Perfomances are at 7:30 nightly in Hoey Auditorium from Tuesday, September 28, through Saturday, October 2. The prices are as follows: $12.50 adults, $10 senior citizens, and $5 for students with a valid ID. University Players also will present Thornton Wilder's Our Town, musical revue An Evening with Rodgers and Hammerstein, and William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet later this year. I says: sorry, It's all tragic and we shouldn't talk about it anymore." The film opened last Friday in Germany, on 180 screens nationwide. It has yet to find an overseas distributor. LONDON, England — The British Film Institute has released its list of the 100 greatest British films. Carol Reed's suspense-thriller "The Third Man" has garnered the top spot. "The Third Man" was released in 1949, and stars Orson Welles, Joseph Cotton, and Trevor Howard. Reed received and Academy Award nomination for his directing, and the film won an award for its cinematography. David Lean was voted the greatest director, with three films in the top five: "Lawrence of Arabia" at two, "Great Expectations" at three, and "Brief Encounter" coming in fifth. Alfred Hitchcock's highest entry at No.4, as well as the oldest film in the list, was 1939's masterpiece "The 39 Steps." Alec Guiness was the top actor in the list, with nine films. Michael Caine was second, with seven. Black and white films occupy four of the five top spots but only 20 out of the last 95. A total of 25,700 votes were cast by various film critics, writers, academics, journalists, and politicians. Voters chose from a list of 300 films.
