Yves Corbeil dubs in Bruno Gerussi's dialogue and the resulting "Sur la Pacifique" cote du becomes a Canadian production starring an Italian playing a Greek who speaks French.

Pig and Whistle Devotees of the Pig and Whistle will be fascinated to know that the June 30th show on CTV leads off with a song called "I Can't Do My Bally Bot- tom Button Up". The rest of the program more or less pales by comparison - "Oh Mr. Porter', "I'm Seared 08 Mrs. McKie', "Brennan on the Moor"', "McCarty's Party" and "The Song of the Clyde." P. and W. is clean jolly fun, although pub cognescenti tell me they have yet to see an organized dance routine taking place in real English pubs. To Venice with MacClear Award winning correspondent Michael McClear travelled to Venice for The Venetian Now in French... Affair which you can see on CTV Thursday, June 26, from 9:30-10:00. It's a visual essay on what MacClear calls *tman's obsessive and destructive love affair with the past at the expense of the present." MacClear sees Venice as symbolising misdirected concern over conservation- and the environment. Hundreds of millions of dollars and unprecedented intern- ational effort is currently expended to restore the art treasures of old Venice while the city's industrial suburbs are ignored. Hundreds of Venetians die every year from the polluted air and Mac- clear finds the citizens in far greater danger than their culture, like "the passengers of the Titanic who dressed up, unaware that the ship was sking."' Unfunny joker The effort to combine the game show. format with comedy seems redundant since game shows glisten with their own particular' sick humour. Global's Jokers Wild is dreary, unfunny and self conscious. What ever happened to Marty Feldman?

EE at the movies "Reincarnation of Peter Proud" is worth seeing by Terry Dupuis Reincarnation is the subject of a new movie which will be arriving soon at the Odeon Theatre in Midland. It is the film version of a best-selling novel by Max Ehrlich called "The Rein- carnation of Peter Proud"'. Michael Sarrazin portrays the title character, a young college teacher whose routine life is suddenly shattered by a plague of. recurring nightmares and disturbing visions. He dreams ot the same persons and places in dream after dream, and they are people he doesn't know and places he is sure he has never seen. The most vivid and persistent nightmare is of a man being 'brutally murdered at a lake late at night by a woman named "Marcia. -- * DISCOUNT STORES One of the @shawa group MONEY SAVER SPECIALS / Kodak Film CX 126-20 or C 110-20 1.49 Bonimart Shampoo (Normal, Egg or Creme Rinse 32 02.) .88 Noxzema Skin Creme 14 oz. 37 Tropic Tan Lotion or Oil 4.5 oz. 97 Carlton Club Pop Case of 24- 10 0z. cans leg | Double Hibachi 11" x 17" 4.97 612 Plus Insect Repellant: Arrid Spra i) Deodorant 6 oz. | ARRID Wirt Dry 1.19 Curad Plastic Bandages 100's 1.23 n NOXZEMA 'Aare at Stick 9 83 2.2 02. 99 12 0z.

He becomes obsessed with learning about his past life. Who was he? Who was Marcia? Why did she murder him? Another thought which. fascinates him is the possibility that his murderer may still be alive. The remainder of the movie consists of his relentless search for answers to these questions. There are no out- standing performances in "The Reincarnation of Peter Proud'; on the other hand, all of the roles are adequately played. The cast consists mainly of unknowns, with the exception of Montreal- born actor Michael Sarrazin (last seen as Streisand's harried husband in "For Pete's Sake'); Jennifer O'Neill (the girl from "Summer of 42'); and Margot Kidder (another Canadian performer; she was one of the victims in last year's 'Black Christmas" and recently co-starred with Robert Redford in "The Great Waldo Pepper".) Likewise the direction by J. Lee Thompson is adequate though unin- spired. His former directed films range from Very Good ("The Guns of Navarone"' and "Cape Fear") to Mediocre ("I Aim At the Stars') to downright Terrible (the 1969 WES wie "MacKenna's Gold"). I would rate Thompson's new film as one of his better works, though not his best. I found "The Rein- carnation of Peter Proud" to be entertaining and generally interesting, rather than thoroughly engrossing and riveting, which it might have been had it been directed by a more skilled and imaginative director. Neverthelesss, the movie is worth seeing since the subject matter is unusual. Reincarnation as' serious subject as seldom.been tackled by the cinema; jit generally crops up only in horror movies like "The Mummy" or in comedies such as "Here Comes Mr. Jordan'. '"'The Rein- carnation of Peter Proud" is hardly the final word which could be said on the subject of rein- carnation, but it is one of the first serious words to be said on it in films.
