6 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, March 26, 1975 Section Two Zion Area Movie Compa ny Pro duces Ukrainian F1il Left to right, Jurij Jemec as Yar, Olena Hlibowych as Mother and Daria Chudoba as Marichka. By Jack Gearin Marichka-A feature length, Ukrainian film in color pro- duced in 1974, by Walter Wasik at his modern studio just at the south of Zion h as a haunting and tender quality. As presented at the Marks Theatre Sunday, March 16th at its local premiere, --two performances drew a total audience of more than 850 that applauded frequently -- it rated high marks in several departments. Some astute casting and an imaginative replica of a Ukrainian village give the film, all dialogue is in Ukrain- ian, an authentic flavor that hel s greatly to hold the audience's attention through- out. Marichka finds Mr. Wasik, an old hand at producing Ukrainian love films with a European-First World War flavor, in superb form. Aside from the excellent production over-all for which be is given credit, his camera work generally leaves little to be desired. The lens effectively captures the rich pastoral beauty of the make-believe Ukraine. Mr. Wasik's camera scenes reflect manoeuvreabil- ity of a high professional quality. This is especially so when he photographs the stirring native sequences by the Kalyna Dancers from The Ukrainian National Federa- tion, Toronto, (frequent visit- ors to Oshawa) and the choral renditions from a counterpart UNF group. The direction by Wolodymyr Baczynsky shows a firm, sure grasp of the delicate love story; collectively, he gets a spirited and impressive per- ROCK CONCERT APRIL WINE STAND BACK TOUR STARRING APRIL WINE & SPECIAL GUESTS "MOONQUAKt" Saturday, March 29th - 8 p.m. Admission $3.50 Advance $4.50 At Door ICKETS Shoppers Record & Tape Whitby-Donold s Travel Mort, Oshawa Centre ON SALE sports Villa Bowmanville Frank, Variety Aucitorium Box Office Ajax Centre Srnoke Shop a a - Juril Jemec plays the role of Yar.

Daria Chudoba, as Mar- ichka, comes across strong. She bas a quiet, restrained dignity; but she can also be vivacious and charming when she wants to turn it on. Jurij Jemec is thoroughly convinc- ing as Yar. Leonid Oleksiuk as commander, gives a ring of realism and authenticity to his role. Marichka is a simple story told with charm and sensitiv- ity, also with a deep concern for rollicking humor. The beautiful Marichka, returning from the big city where she bas been studying, is wildly acclaimed by the villagers. Yar leader of a party of young men, falls in love witb ber. Trouble soon eruDts when a group of soldiers seeks accommodation in the village. Marichka, sympathetic towards the sold- ier's cause, arouses Yar's jealously when she offers the commander accommodation in ber mother's home. The lovers separate temporarily after Marichka disrupts Yar's attempt to have the villagers boycott the soldiers. Marichka has a happy ending, but, before it arrives there is plenty of tense drama, tender romance and laughter. This rates as Mr. Wasik's finest film to date. It bas a much higher professional quality than any of its three predecessors. The acting, pro- duction and narrative pace are all 6ood. Here's hoping Mr. Wasik will soon tackle a story with English dialogue. The film is now snowing at the Brighton Theatre until March 27th. It is located at 127 Roncesvalles Ave. Bowmanville residents will recall back in 1968 when Mr. Wasik and his new film company created quite a stir here on a Sunday when they transformed part of the town into a German army head- quarters, complete with sold- iers in German uniforms plus simulated Germany army equipment. It created quite a stir among the folks who were just coming out of church at noon and wondered just what had happened. Three Bowmanville area people have parts in the play. They are Otto Strehl who is a coachman, Wade Hersey and John Adair who are grips.

Drowning statistics showed a shocking number of eople lost their lives annualy. At that time, there was no national, recog- nized standard against which swimming instructors could be evaluated, nor was there a single standard progressive program of instruction. The Water Safety Service filled both these needs. Red Cross trained instructors and estab- lished a pro gram through which thousands of Canadians have learned to enjoy the water safely.
