Desert Island Films
SOMETHING like a filmgoers’ version of the Desert Island Discs game was in Wellington last -year when 2YA invited six people to talk. in its Focus on Film session about the five best films they had seen. Professor Arnold Wall, formerly Professor of English at Canterbury University College, started off-he has been a film-goer for more than half a century, though he didn’t include any very early films in his five best. After him came Donald Priestley, Headmaster of the Day Department at Wellington Technica] College; Marie Bullock, a Wellington housewife and journalist; Graham Rhind, a Wellington newspaper reporter; Frenk ’Chilton, of the National Film Unit; and Margaret Bubbers, a member of the Wellington Film Society. Listeners who didn’t hear the series when it was first broadcast and who like to see how their choice compares with other people’s are now to have a chance of hearing these talks from other stations. They will start from 3YC at 9.36 p.m. on Wednesday, February 10.
