Sidewalk festival broken up MONTREAL (CP) -Four persons were arrested Wednesday night when police pulled the plug on an impromptu sidewalk festival of rarely-seen, locally-produced independent films. With little organization and no advance publicity, cinematographers set up a projector at a busy downtown intersection and showed their flicks to hundreds of curious pedestrians for more than two hours. “It’s better that 500 people see a film on the street than for it to sit forgotten on a shelf in a cupboard,” explained Pierre ' Falardeau, who presented 'his celluloid rendition of Michelle Lanctot’s nationalist poem Speak V^hite. -More than two hours irtlo the event, police arrived to break up the crowd and pull the plug on the projector. Two fUmmakers, a photographer and a spectator were arrested and cfiarged with various misdemeanors before being released. J“The police were only doing their job,” Falar-d£au said in an interview Thursday, noting that he afcd bis colleagues knew of the possible consequences before holding the event.

Nurse Shoop changed LOS ANGELES (AP)-Madge Sinclair found that when she took the role as the head nurse in CBS* Trapper John, M.D. she couldn’t play the character as a bossy mother hen. She plays Nurse Ernestine Shoop in the hit series, which stars Pernell Roberts and Gregory Harrison. She was summoned for the part in the past season after the death of actress Mary McCarty. “They wrote her as a little bossy, a mother hen,” said Miss Sinclair, “but it’s evolved into something else. When we ended the season, she was a different person. I just didn’t think being bossy quite works for me. “I think what happened is they expected an older person because of all the roles in which I’ve played older women. So when I played it at my own age it was a little incongruous for me to be mothering Trapper. Pernell didn’t care for that either.” Miss Sinclair, who in the past has starred in Roots and Guyana Tragedy: The Story of Jim Jones, now is filming an ABC movie called In Our Hands. The movie deals with rape and the attitudes of the police and the friends and families of the victims. Miss Sinclair plays a police officer who becomes involved with the women during her investigation. “Five women are all raped by the same man and they meet at the police station,” said Miss Sinclair. “The man is released on a technicality and the women become obsessed with taking the law into their own hands.” CAVE APPEARANCE THE CITIZEN, Prince George — Monday. June 22. 1981 — 11 'Hawk' flies in for Mitzi VANCOUVER (CP) - “I hope you got strong cameras.” says the big. beaming man in the blue jeans and black T-shirt with a silver hawk across the chest. “Can you make me look a bit younger and slimmer?” No matter what the photographers do. Ronnie Hawkins is not going to look like Mitzi Gaynor. And now. at 46 years old, Elvis Presley’s contemporary, owner of the strongest Arkansas accent ever to have weathered 24 years in Canada, the man who put together The Band, the legendary Hawk, is about to be Mitzi’s stand-in. Gaynor broke a bone in her foot while rehearsing for a farewell appearance at the Cave. Hawkins, here promoting his new record, A Legend In His Spare Time, cancelled the rest of the promotional tour when Cave manager Stan Grozina called him up and*made a deal. “I don’t think the Mitzi Gaynor fans are going to be too thrilled,” Hawkins says, “but we might be able to get some of our old drunks in. “They wouldn’t even let me into the Cave before.” he says. “I played Isy’s.” The Hawk is flying again. He addresses the press, assembled in his hotel suite: “Kids, if you ever told any lies, tell them now. We need all the hype we can get. Get me out of the bars! I’m so tahred of bubbling under.” Hawkins began bubbling under in 1957 when he left Arkansas and drove to Canada in a ’52 Chev. He played the Toronto bar circuit, for three years had his own club, the Hawk’s Nest, and consistently assembled great backup bands; in fact, the Band -Levon Helm, Robbie Robertson. Rick Danko, Garth Hudson and Richard Manuel. He blames congenital bad luck for the stardom that never quite arrived, the record deals that died, the part in the disastrous movie Heaven’s Gate. “If I owned every pumpkin in the world, they’d ban Hallowe’en,” he says. “It would be my luck to get rich and famous and then die.” But despite the failure of Heaven’s Gate, he has a pile of scripts at home and he’s booked well into 1982. That includes a gig in the Imperial room at the Royal York, just after Ws second overseas tour. He’ll be coming back to his nightclub in London. Ont., and to a CFTOtelevision series called HonkyTonk. Hawkins has sold part of his car collection: the Rolls-Royces, the Gullwing Mercedes and the Ferrari. He still has the 1926 T-model Roadster, the 1950 Mercury, the 1937 Ford pickup and the two 1963 Mustang convertibles, vehicles a little more in keeping with his carefully polished country-boy image. “The only thing that kept me out of college was high school,” he says. But doesn’t he have a degree in physical education from the University of Arkansas? "Science and physical education. I wanted to be a girl’s P.E. teacher, but they wouldn’t let me.” Despite the winks and the one-liners, he’s still working on his first marriage, to former Miss Toronto Wanda Nagurski. They have three children, aged 12 to 18. In fact, Hawkins has led a life of commendable serenity: no broken marriage; no booze problem; none of the ravages you’d expect after close to 30 years of rock and roll. He’s dieting, and not drinking. “I gave up the booze and I felt bad ever since.” & Pa/ttte 'Sou/td Taped Dance Music for Any Occasion — Experienced M.C.'s — Professional sound equipment — Special wedding program — Lighting effects on request — Satisfaction guaranteed For advanced bookings Bus. 564-2023 Little Oly's Restaurant BREAKFAST SPECIAL Drop In and check our special every week ^ H 99 Only...................

Ont. (CP) — The Stratford Festival’s 1981 season, which opened with four plays last week, is clearly a conservative effort to regain its shattered confidence. Each of the productions has merit, but none of the opening performances was completely satisfying to this reviewer. None of the shows had that elusive stylistic spark that in rc-cent years set Stratford apart from other theatres in the country. The festival since last fall has gone through an emotional administrative and artistic wringer in the selection of a successor to artistic director Robin Phillips. John Hirsch, the new director. suggested when he took on the job in January that it might be better to close the festival for a year. It was primarily the loss of jobs and the disruption to the local tourist economy that would have resulted that brought the festival together to stage this year’s program. Opening this week were two Shakespeare plays — The Taming of the Shrew, and Coriolanus — a Moliere classic, The Misanthrope; and a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta. II.M.S. Pinafore. Everyone will make his or her own assesment of the production. These are this reviewer’s thoughts about the new season, based on 40 years of play-going and almost a decade of watching Stratford closely in particular. Likely to be the most popular in box office appeal is the Peter Dews production of Shrew starring Len Cariou and Sharry Flett in the widely known battle between lord and lady-wife for mastery of the newlywed household. Cariou also stars in the title role of Shakespeare’s Roman history drama, Coriolanus, under the direction of Brian Bedford. A huge but tightly-controlled production with the clash of arms occupying the whole theatre, the show may become one of Stratford’s best once the actors master their diction.
