Excellent quality in treatment and in technical aspects is maintained in the Older Teens And Dating series: Going Steady Fallitig In Love Conduct On A Date When Should I Marry? When I look back across these titles and remember being with a group of high school young people every Sunday night for twenty-five years, I am stirred to hope that every one of these filmstrips is seen by the parents of youth as well as by the young people themselves. In so many instances the ideas of parents need up-dating, modernizing. They so often need new insights, new tacks, new ways of dealing with their own (teenage) children. Therefore let no user think that he has really used these fine materials until he has used them with parents as well as with youth. Let no dealer forget to point out this multiple use of these filmstrips when doing business with the church. Let it be remembered also that these filmstrips can help leaders do the job year after year. Africa Feature Available According to United World Films, Inc. (1445 Park Ave., N. Y. 29), that remarkable film. The Mark of the Hawk, which has been running in the theaters since the summer of 1957, will be available to the churches after January 1, I960. Having attended the premiere of this film in 1957 and having previewed it the other evening in its 16mm reduction, we would like to observe that it seems more timely now than two years ago. Again we were impressed with the professional excellence of the film. This is seen in its casting, acting, directing and especially in its dramatic structure and attention-holding qualities. Running something over 100 minutes, this powerful film packs a message for church people as well as those outside. The image of missionary work which it develops is faithful to the Gospel and about three layers deeper than that held in the mind of so many churchmen today. It portrays the role of Christian religion in meeting the political, economic and spiritual needs of awakening Africa, and indicates that the Church is the only great fellowship that actually embraces all colors and conditions of humanity. Without doubt any church which will do a little promotion can gather an audience for such a great film, and if it must be financed that way, we don't see how anyone could put less than folding money on the plate after seeing such a moving and entertaining film. I don't mean ersatz 'entertainment' which drips from much theatrical stuff these days, but entertainment in the sense of being interesting because of its inherent drama. It's told straight from the shoulder, and is a 'must' for all. Don't pass this superb film by.— WSH Beloved • O Wj O W*ll CltHfr MOCVtllONl I Characters in new Sound Filmstrips study guides show religious teaching applications.
