TIIE PROVINCE, Thursday, May 27, 1971 35 MM mm mi Sovetski Ekran (Soviet Screen) Moscow allows Tchaikovsky his hang-ups By BERNARD GWERTZMAN New York Times MOSCOW Soviet movie fans have chosen At the Lake, which deals with the problems of protecting the environment, as the best Soviet film of 1970 and Innokenti Smoktunovsky as the top actor for his roles in Tchaikovsky and Crime and Punishment. The results of a poll conducted by the magazine Sovetski Ekran (Soviet Screen) were disclosed in the current issue, and seemed to bear out the view ISumtmmm. 4 A 17 X. I -If-fiflf ii Vmi mi. i Ilin Jfc i im, i James SPEAKS THE DOCTOR IS IN for Ewa Wisnieuska (right) and her sister, the soft glow of the TV is quite enough.

Lou DuMoulin, the old-fashioned silent film organist, is back in town with big plans. He's bringing Charlie Chaplin's classic The Gold Rush to the Playhouse Theatre tonight, Friday and Saturday, jjwwwmy and the trail to Polish soap the rather rigid puritanical code here, he was in trouble when he began exploring Tchaikovsky's hang-ups about women. Talankin was aided by Smoktunov-sky's ability to suggest that Tchaikovsky was not completely normal. Smoktunovsky, who, in prestige, is the Soviet equivalent of Laurence Olivier, is known abroad for his Hamlet in the Soviet version of the Shakespearian classic several years ago. But the poll, in which 37,000 readers participated, also singled out Smoktunovsky for his role as Inspector Porfiry in an otherwise disappointing Leningrad production of Dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment.

That movie finished 11th in the rankings. The poll is a much-talked about institution here. It is the closest approximation of the Oscars in the United States, although here the ordinary moviegoer make the choices. The favorite movie of many intellectuals last year was an unheralded film called The Beginning, which tells of the life of an ordinary girl who somehow gets tapped to stardom in a movie of Joan of Arc. The actress, a relative unknown named Inna Chuikova, was chosen as best actress for her role in that film.

The Soviet Union's main effort in 1970 was a war film to end war films, The Liberation, which describes in documentary style some of the major victories of the Second World War. In 1970 there were two installments, and this year one. A fourth is promised. The poll ranked it only fourth. of most filmgoers here that 1970 as a year without a single outstanding Soviet film.

Several movies were closely bunched at the top, with At the Lake, directed by Sergei Gerasimov, edging out Tchaikovsky. At the Lake was one of the few movies to discuss social problems. It deals with the debate over Lake Baikal, a famous lake in Siberia that is threatened with pollution from a paper mill being built on its shores. The movie ends ambiguously, with neither the conservationists or the industrialists completely pleased. Even though the movie was overly-long and artistically lacking, it provoked interest for its willingness to discuss problems of contemporary interest.

Soviet films in recent years have tended to deal with either Lenin, the war, or old Russian classics. Directors have found that it was too much trouble getting films on contemporary subjects passed by the censors at film studio or the final cultural czars in the state committee for cinematograph. Tchaikovsky provoked considerable interest here and has been one of the more controversial films of recent years. It is beautifully filmed in color, and the musical arrangements by Russian-American Dimitri Tiomkin satisfied even many purists. But like so many films here, it appeared to need additional editing.

The director, Igor Talankin, also couldn't seem to decide whether he wanted to make a movie about the composer's music or his private life. But because of i he tuonaiKe isn i Warsaw serial star No. 1 Associated Press WARSAW Red-blooded Polish men the only promised attraction. Du-Moulin's music should start 15 minutes before the film, at about 7:45 p.m. His previous haunt, the Colon ial Magic Theatre, was already booked School, was on the stage for seven years and has made 20 films.

Presidential papers preserved Austin monument over-Johnsons history By ADA LOUISE HUXTABLE New Vork Times AUSTIN, Texas It is possible, after leaving the Lyndon Baines Johnson library, to feel slightly over-Johnsoned. Only history will know for sure. But in the random way that democracy scatters art and monuments among its leaders, Johnson has a winner. This is the first unabashed bid for immortality using that curious new hybrid, the presidential library-museum, and it has produced a substantial work of architecture. The age of Lincoln and Jefferson memorials is over.

It will be presidential libraries from now on. so he took his projector and organ to the Playhouse. With emprcsario Hugh Pickett, he is attempting to arrange a silents-plus-organ at the Orpheum Theatre, Vancouver's lush and very much alive link with the movie world's past. With its magnificent pipe organ rarely used in public the genius of both musician and film-maker can be properly displayed. Orpheum manager Ted Bielby says that his theatre is available, but that rental costs pre-empting regular feature movies would be prohibitive.

Which mean that if outsiders want to use the Orpheum, they would have to schedule their shows at midnight or in the morning. Until last year, the musicians' union objected to anyone using the organ without hiring 14 extra musicians. There now exists an understanding that a solo organist is permitted if he accompanies a film. With the current interest in old films probably because of a lack of good new films perhaps the Famous Players chain should consider going into the silent film business again, with the Orpheum a starting point. Whether Famous Players or Lou DuMoulin put on the show, I anxiously await a chance to see it happen at the Orpheum.

THE IRISH ROVERS, described in press agents' circles as "the happiness are indicating just that in the CBC ratings. The network has something called an Enjoyment Index, which is probably a belter system of measurement that ordinary ratings, and the Rovers scored an 85. Still not impressed? It is one of the highest recorded in recent years for a variety series, according to the CBC. Partly as a result, they've been signed for an additional 26 shows beginning in September. Their current scries has been switched to Thursdays at 9 p.m.

for better prime-time positioning. The shows are made here and produced by Ken Gibson, and Gibson, the Rovers, and cameraman Doug McKay are travelling to Ireland in the fall for an hour-long CBC special. They'll re-visit their birthplaces, and explore their current away-from-Canada homes in a special tentatively scheduled for next St. Patrick's day. In the new half-hour fall series, they will perform in only 16 shows and merely host the other ten, which lessens the chance of over-exposure and fears that the Canadian populace will acquire a lilt.

Tommy Makem, Carmcl Quinn, Brend Lee and Liam Clancey are some of the performers signed for the new series, which may be sold abroad. The shows in which the Rovers are merely hosts may change to a music hall format. Other programs will be aimed at children. I 4 ti 3j. i This trend is guaranteed by the U.S.

Presidential Libraries Act of 1955. A legislative slow starter just getting into high gear, the act authorizes the federal government to accept and operate any presidential library presented to it as a gift. That they will be built, and presented, is as sure as the presidential succession. The Truman and Eisenhower libraries were modest beginnings. Watch next for the Kennedy dark horse at Harvard.

Nixon library studies have already begun. The Johnson library is big Texas big. The architect, Gordon Bunshaft of Skidmore, Owings, Merrill, thinks big. Johnson is known not to think small. Contrary to popular Johnson mythology, however, this is the building that the ar- The JOHNSONS, LYNDON, LADYBIRD and LIBRARY even the descent to the men's room is like entering an Egyptian tomb.

chitect wanted. It is, almost incidentl-ly, the one that Johnson got. It puts Johnson in the same class as some popes and kings who were equally receptive clients for architects with equally large ideas. He has done all right this will be a hard one to top. If the word monument turns you off, stop right here.

Architecture as art and symbol is one of civilization's oldest games and Bunshaft is one of its most dedicated players. This is quite evident from the unmistakable Bunshaftian scale and style of the building's 65-foot high monolithic mass and style of the building's trusses spanning 90 feet of travertine-clad facade. It has monument written all over it. The canted, marble-sheathed walls, inside and out, suggest massive antiquities. Even the descent to the men's room is like entering an Egyptian tomb.

Eight windowless stories rising temple-like from a two-story podium base that contains services and an auditorium make no pretense at human scale. The building is as handsome as $18 million, superbly matched Italian cream travertine, a large design talent and breathtakingly fine construction and detailing can make it. (It helps to have oil on campus: The University of Texas, at Austin, footed the bill.) It is as impressive as the thoughtfully culled documents of an era, selected and installed by Arthur Drexler of New York's Museum of Modern Art, can be. What comes across from the exhibits, riant over Johnson's looming personal- Puzzle By Anthony Morse The complex includes the Sid W. Richardson Hall, a long, low Tanking structure that houses rare manuscript collections and the Lyndon B.

Johnson School of Public Affairs. The library building itself is so strong that it easily absorbs a small pimple on the roof and a slight break in the continuous top floor fenestration: the featured reproduction of the Oval Office of the White House. This is a conceit that apprarently grips all presidents. Built at full size to fit a structure for which it was not originally planned, the distortion of scale has the slightly unsettling effect of a funny mirror. The sense of dislocation is enhanced by its bullet proof "19th-century" windows with a view of the university tower from where a berserk student shot and killed 12 people and wounded 33 others in v.m.

ity, is that this is the record of an important and complex period, as well as of a man, and that the man is complex, too. The editing has been done with dignity and skill. Major exhibits coexist with revealing trivia, including those much overpublicized wedding dresses. Sophisticated techniques use film, photography and TV. This is the art, as well as the history of our time.

Today such libraries serve presidential egos and public curiosity as well as posterity and scholarship. They serve as a museum memorial. Bunshaft has made a large statement using the archives themselves for stunning symbolic and esthetic effect. The building does not stand alone; it is the focus of a 19-acre, uently sloping site. Its setting crowns the main campus with opulent grandeur.

From then on Fischer consolidated his position, tying down black's knight and king behind the queen-sido pawns and leaving him little room to manoeuvre. Taimanov received criticism for his play from one of his own countrymen. Aleksander Kotov, of the Russian Chess Federation, said both players are making serious mistakes. In his opinion Taimanov should have won two games and drawn the third. He said Taimanov "played terrible" In Tuesday's game, iilthmiwh he faulted Fischer for not taking a pawn in the early stages which would have given him a certain winning hand.

Fischer now has an expert available for analysis.
