20th CORK FILM
INTERNATIONAL
1975
SATURDAY, 7 JUNE
TO
SATURDAY, 14 JUNE
Programme 20p
�The Festival Director
introduces the 20th
Cork Film International. ..
Fiche blian ag fas. Some of our many friends,
old and new, may have thoughts of Maurice
O’Sullivan’s Twenty Years A-Growing or even of
A. E. Housman’s lines on the twenty that will
not come again. In fact our thoughts are not on
time past at all. but on our Festival this year
which you will find, I trust, local as always in
flavour and universal in interest and importance.
Cork is the occasion for the coming together of
many nations and in a troubled world the occa
sion is of paramount importance.
We are concerned with films of high technical
qualities because we believe that the technician,
whether cameraman or writer, is contributing
more to the film industry than is generally ack
nowledged. Last year we introduced a special
Film Techniques Course for teenagers which was
a tremendous success, so much so that we have
extended it this year.
Once again, this year, Cork International is the
only festival in the world that presents awards for
technical collaboration in the Features Section.
Awards will be made by an International Jury
of five members to the outstanding Scriptwriter.
Director of Photography, Music Composer.
Editor and Art Director of the Feature Films
shown during the Festival. Certificates of Merit
will also be awarded.
4
�In the Short Films Section the competition
under Category D will continue to include films
made specifically for television. The International
Film Critics’ Award will be made to the best Irish
film.
Each year Cork honours an outstanding Direc
tor and this year we are proud to pay tribute to
Richard Lester.
A warm welcome then to you all to Cork 1975
and my sincere thanks to you all for your un
faltering support. As always Bord Failte Eireann
continues to be the main sponsor of our Festival,
but Cork has had many good benefactors, and this
year I would like to mention, in particular, the
newly formed The London Friends of Cork who
in two years have provided generous financial
support.
You may well ask why Cork is honoured by
such magnificent support from this London Group
which includes an Australian, an American and
a Dutchman. We honestly do not know; but we
feel that their work and enthusiasm is in recogni
tion for what Cork is doing for Cinema and for
Ireland’s prestige abroad. Is it not a pity, then,
that many Irish firms who could help, do not
think in the same way?
My thanks to the Directors and Staff of the
Southern Regional Tourist Board and to the many
friends and sponsors who make Cork an impor
tant and joyous occasion for so many.
A special word of welcome to our friends of
the Press. May your stay in Cork be worthwhile
and enjoyable. I wish to express my personal
thanks to the Lord Mayor and Corporation of
Cork and the Business Publicity Association for
the decoration of the City during the Festival.
DERMOT H. BREEN,
Director, Cork Film International

�A TRIBUTE TO
RICHARD LESTER
The spotlight at this year’s Festival is on
Richard Lester, the noted U.S. born director, who
was responsible for such films as Help, How 1
1Fo,i The War, Petulia, Hard Day’s Night, The
Knack, The Bed Sitting Room, Mouse On The
Moon. A Funny Thing Happened On The IVny
To the Forum and more recently The Three
Musketeers and Juggernaut.
Richard Lester was born in January 1932 in
Philadelphia, and after a spell studying clinical
psychology he entered television; later he embar
ked on a tour of Europe and North Africa as a
folk singer and jazz musician before making a
name for himself in British T.V. through the
“Goon” show with Spike Milligan and Peter
Sellers.
The unexpected success in 1959 of his slapstick
short The Running, Jumping and Standing Still
Film — shot as a Sunday lark — with Sellers and
other friends, eventually contributed to his being
signed on by Walter Shenson to direct a quickie
musical about the Beatles, who had seen the short
and had recommended Lester. In the interval he
had begun making commercials and directed It's
Trad Dad, a pop musical which attracted the
attention of some cinema connoisseurs.
Lester takes pains with interviewers to declare
that he is not primarily a comedy director.
“Comedy films are desperately serious to me.”
he once stated, and Joseph McBride in a profile
of Lester in the International Film Guide 1975.
emphasises that this talented director’s films have
almost always worked on two levels: the super
ficial “pop” level of light hearted smartness, rest
less movement and unremitting audience titilla
tion; the second, a recondite, almost nerve-wrack
ing density of texture which does not allow the
cinemagoers a moment’s rest if he is to extract
from the film, half of what Lester crams into it.
Films by Richard Lester to be screened in the
Tribute Programme are:

Film — shot as a Sunday lark — with Sellers and
other friends, eventually contributed to his being
signed on by Walter Shenson to direct a quickie
musical about the Beatles, who had seen the short
and had recommended Lester. In the interval he
had begun making commercials and directed It's
Trad Dad, a pop musical which attracted the
attention of some cinema connoisseurs.
Lester takes pains with interviewers to declare
that he is not primarily a comedy director.
“Comedy films are desperately serious to me.”
he once stated, and Joseph McBride in a profile
of Lester in the International Film Guide 1975.
emphasises that this talented director’s films have
almost always worked on two levels: the super
ficial “pop” level of light hearted smartness, rest
less movement and unremitting audience titilla
tion; the second, a recondite, almost nerve-wrack
ing density of texture which does not allow the
cinemagoers a moment’s rest if he is to extract
from the film, half of what Lester crams into it.
