Then he'd throw me in the burn barrel and spray me with a Hose when the leaves were all burnt off. I tell ya, we were a great football family. When I was growin' up, catch was a spec tator sport.

LINCOLN AVIATION INSTITUTE LINCOLN MUNICIPAL AIRPORT 475-7S02 YOU A PILOT Mo zart s s to oBen Sneldon Sheldon Film Theater's Film Opera series continued this month with Joseph Losey's adaptation of Mozart's "Don Giovanni." starring Ruggero Raimondi and Edda Moser. "Don Giovanni" is showing on Friday and Saturday, October 12 and 13. Screenings are a 7 p m. each day with a 3 p.m. matinee on Saturday. The film's length is )E5 minutes and it is in Italian dialogue with Eng lish subtitles. Admission is $3.00 ($2.00 for senior citizens, children, and membf rs of the Friends of the Sheldon Film Theater). No film adaptation of grand opera has ever been as told or as beautiful as Joseph Losey's version of Mozart's mssterwark. Scrupulously following the Da Ponte libretto, Lcsey makes Don Giovanni cne of these mor bid, almost demonic figures that inevitably ariss on thu eve of a revolution a joyless, compulsive rake who must seduce every woman in his path. Photographed in the Pal ladian villas and theatres around Vicenza and Venice, the film upholds this hew interpretation with a subtle shift from cemmedia dell 'arte to morality plsy. in visual terms, from Wtiteau to Goya. For his project, Lossy brought together some of the greatest in opera: Eero Eaimondi, in fine voice, adds a chilling suggestion of the Marquis de Sade to his plavacting; Jose Van Dam sings a delightful Leporello; and Edda Mcsar, Kiri Te Kanawa and Teresa Berganza sing and perform magniUcentfy as the Don's conauects. Long acclaim ed as the supreme achievement of Western culture, "Don Gio vanni" has at last been suc cessfully transposed to the fun medium.
