Indeed, what Hollywood film director could
boast having helmed such a spectrum of personalities ranging in the
30's, from a hoofing Al Jolson, through action westerns with Randolph
Scott in the '40's, rambling on to culminate in rock sensation Elvis
Presley...

Watching the shorts on the plight of Bolivian children in the mining region of Potosi hurts. Have we lost all notions of concern and respect for one another ? What has Evo MORALES, now reconducted as Bolivia`s first indigenous President done in his first mandate to reinforce protection of minors in his own country. Nothing, because the situation at present is particularly alarming. Close to 90% of all the children are abused and exploited before reaching adulthood, if they ever do.

Even though the vintage reels shown of Russian prima ballerina Anna PAVLOVA spooled three weeks ago in Pordenone, the aura of the dancer, her interminable legs, her precision on tip-toe and her incredible grace and femininity tinged with mystery, linger in the minds of all festival-goers who viewed them.
