Set during the Civil War years of 1862-1863, “Glory” chronicles the creation of the first black fighting unit, the 54th Regiment of Massachusetts Volunteer In fantry. The story is largely seen through the eyes of commanding officer Col. Robert Gould Shaw (Broderick). Shaw, the son of wealthy par ents and an abolitionist, gets his first taste of war during the bloody and indecisive Battle of Antietam. Disillusioned, he re turns home a hero and is promptly offered command of the 54th, a yet-unfored regiment. Although he lacks command experience, 25-year-old Shaw is full of idealism and he struggles endlessly with his new position. IDEO spotlight:‘Glory f He makes many mistakes but never gives up t, th His unit, the 54th, is made up largely of runaway slaves and newly-freed blacks with total membership eventualy reaching 1,000. Among the soldiers are Trip (Washington) and Rawlins (Mor gan Freeman). Although both are runaway slaves, they share little in common. Trip is full of hatred to wards the world, whereas Rawlins is a gently but strong-willed man. Aside from being a much- needed history lesson, “Glory” is much more. The films shows the impor- tacne of human dignity. To the soldiers of the 54th, dignity was so mportant that they were will ing to die for it. By volunteering to fight and die, they showed a largely racist society that they de served respect. The 54th Regiment eventually proved its battle-worthiness dur ing an attack on Fort Wagner in South Carolina. Because of the valor shown, the Union Arm) opened enlistment to more than 180,000 blacks. President Abra ham Lincoln later credited the black fighting units with being decisive factors in helping the union with the war. During the climactic final as sault on Fort Wagner, the soldiers finally received the dignity they ’ td. had so long been denied Winner of three Academy Awards, “Glory” is truly an ex ceptional film. With the excep tion of one historical goof (sol diers were not allowed to be flogged at the time), “Glory”isac- curate in every detail. Featuring a strong message as well as a powerfully dramatic sto ryline, “Glory” is definitely worth renting. Grade: A • V ideo Courtesy of 2-Day Video Pianist keys up for chamber series’ opener By RUDY CORDOVA JR. The sound of music wll be in the air tonight as the University Chamber Series presents its first concert of the year. Lori Sims in her Bryan-College Station debut will perform a program of works by Mozart, Schu mann, Brahms and Samuel Barber. Sims, a winner of numerous competitions including the Kosciusko Foundation Chopin Competition, is a graduate of Peabody Conservatory in Baltimore and a graduate student at Yale University. Originally from Denver, Colorado, she has pursued her goal of becom ing a world-famous pianist since she First began to play the piano. “I started out listening to my parents play the piano,” Sims says, “and they began to teach me as they saw my interest in piano grow.” Sims has studied with many of America’s most nota ble teachers including Leon Fleisher, Claude Frank, Daniel Pollack and Larry Graham. Last year she won the Concerto Competition Award for first-year recital at Yale. “Private recitals are something I used to do for family and friends,” she says. Sims has learned what it takes to be a performer through the 18 years she has endured in studying the art of music. “I feel I’m a tempermental person,” Sims says, “but you have to have a certain professionalism when you become an artist.” Her professionalsim extends to her opinions about the age of recording. Live performance has lost much of its popularity since the onset of audiotechnological inventions. “Nowadays, everything can be mechanically manipu lated,” she says. “Don’t get me wrong, it has its place, but it can’t show human emotions, which is what art is all about.” Like other female artists, Sims has had to deal with the problem of gender. Of the well-known pianists of the world, very few women top the list. “There is a certain stigma that women could only play certain repertoire,” Sims says. When asked if there was anything she could not han dle, she confidently replies, “No.” The University Chamber Series is a part of the Music Program and sponsored by the College of Liberal Arts and the Department of Philosophy and Humanities.

The MSC Visual Arts Commit tee is just one way that Texas A&M students can explore their interests in the arts. Beginning to day, Visual Arts will present “Old Army,” a collection of works on paper by Timothy Vanya. A native of Texas, Vanya is a graduate of the University of Houston, and a veteran police of ficer with the Houston Police De partment. He brings his work to Texas A&M in an effort to cap ture student life on campus. This first exhibit will highlight the Corps of Cadets and their contri bution to the university. Vanya is a member of the Houston and Pasadena Gulf Coast Art Leagues and has re cently been accepted by the Arch way Gallery in Houston. By firmly establishing the past, Vanya hopes to search for the fu ture. Joe Fenton, Visual Arts ad viser, says “Timothy is a very lik able, down-to-earth person with a lot of talent.” “Old Army” is an exhibit in pencil drawings. “If you can’t draw, you can’t be a great artist,” Fenton says. “Pencil drawings are a cleanliness and freshness that’s real, instead of being covered up by charcoal and paint,” he adds. “Old Army” will be on display at the Visual Arts Gallery through October 31. The gallery is located on the first floor of the MSC. A reception honoring Timoth) Vanya will be held Tuesday al 7:00 p.m. outside the Visual Arts Gallery. Vanya will be presentat the reception and every Salurdaj in October to visit with the public. The Visual Arts is looking for ward to an exciting year with 11 major exhibits and one juried stu dent show. Their theme for the year is “something for everyone.' They hope to satisfy everyone’s interest in the visual arts with a variety of displays. “We want for the visual arts what OPAS has done for the performing arts,’ Fenton says. With 210 active members, the committee hopes to inform, e cate and entertain through vh arts. As well as being artists, the students serve as tour guides for the Forsyth Galleries. Through the 1990 Fall “Art Lesson/Appre ciation Project” they wish to pro mote the art of drawing am appreciation for the visual arts. ea :oI Seniors Mon-Thurs Octl-4 This is the LAST chance!
