 POLITICAL
FILM SOCIETY MEMBERS NARROW LIST OF NOMINEES FOR BEST PEACE
FILM
Because one of the rules of the Political Film Society is
that there can be only five nominees per category each year,
members voted to determine the top five of the seven films
of 1998 pre-nominated for promoting political consciousness
of the desirability of settling conflicts peacefully. Three
otherwise excellent films were dropped from the list—American
History X, Men with Guns, and The
Thin Red Line.
POLITICAL
FILM SOCIETY BOARD MET ON FEBRUARY 13; TO MEET AGAIN ON MARCH
13
The Board of Directors of the Political Film Society held
their first meeting of 1999 on February 13. The Board counted
the ballots for the best five films in the category of peace
and adopted amendments to the By-Laws, as noted on the website.
On March 13, again at 8481 Allenwood Road, Los Angeles, the
Board will reconvene primarily to count ballots for the best
political films of 1998, which will be announced by March
15.
