Coral Andrews Chronicle Special! *‘The creations of our mind should be a blessing, not a curse to mankind." â€" The earth sphere is revolving, its inhabitants hustling and bustling, going about the usual business of the day. The automation of mankind ricochets from every corner of the planet, and the world is alive and kicking. 6: 12 A.M. The world is dead silent. Zack Hobson lies naked in the dawn‘s awakening rays. He is still breathing. Sensing something is terribly wrong, he gazes through the window to the windswept fields which encircle his New Zealand country habitat. E Minutes later, Hobson frantically searches the streets and houses for any sign of the smallest human activity. The nuclear scientist feels insurâ€" mountable creeping fear seizing the recesses of his mind. This time The Effect was a devastatingly overwhelming success, and he, Zack Hobson, is nov;u:he only human being alive on The Quiet Ea 2i . The Quiet Earth (now at the Waterloo Theatre) directed by Geoff Murphy is a skillfully concocted science â€" fiction piece not too distant from the The recent oils by acclaimed artist Wadie Mahdy are on disâ€" play at Carmichael Gallery in Waterloo (beside the Waterloo Theatre) for the next three weeks. This show concentrates on Caâ€" nadian landscape painting even though Mahdy does a great deal of figurative painting, sculpture and ceramic work as well. The artist‘s Mediterranean upâ€" bringing gives the Canadian landscape® bright, vivid colors where even winter scenes have a great warmth and intensity. The strength of the paintings lies not just in the powerful use of color, but also in a unique composition. Although it is possiâ€" ble to detect undertones of many of the great schools or moveâ€" ments of art in which Mahdy is well versed e.g. Impressionism, Cubism, Fauvism, his style is definitely his own. 6: 11 A.M.

Bruno Lawrence (Smash Palaceâ€"another cult classic) plays Zack Hobson a brusque, streetwise, occasionally tender yet rather schizoid personality who sojourns through an intriguing array of change. Just as the sun‘s intrinsic energy patterns and the fabric of the universe are dangerously altered and are now entirely unstable, so are Hobson‘s personality traits in a nightmarish dayâ€"to day revelation of nightmarish proportions. ‘I am condemned to live,‘ cries hollow man Hobson, racked with guilt. _ 2 8 The Twilight Zone cliche essense initially associated with the film‘s commencement dissiâ€" pates as Hobson delves deeper into reality, to find the essential solution to this atmospheric Catch It‘s man versus environment, man versus man, and man versus himself, as Hobson possessed by his trauma, desperately alone, begins to believe he is now God. _ HARMONY IV COUNTERPOINT IV HISTORY IV HARMONY & COUNTERPOINT V MAY 19 â€" JULY 4 MAY 20 STARTING CALL 578â€"3640 ‘"With The Best Seats . ..
