a certain district. We heard
America is violent but we didn't
believe it."
The women of the group, Wern
er, Bieritz and Schulz, are original
ly from East Germany while the
men, Grafen and Rupprecht, hail
from the West. They say one of the
most common questions Ameri
cans ask them is their opinion on
German reunification.
Although the five share similar
professions, the Eastern natives
disagree with the Westerners on
many points, especially the reuni
fication matter.
"We disagree on many points,"
Rupprecht said. "We lived in the
West and they in the East. The
points of view are just different."
"We differ in background, cul
ture and language," Werner said.
According to this group, there
were many people who benefit-
ted from reunification and many
who didn't.
"We refer to some people as
winners of the reunification and
some losers," Werner said.
The losers of reunification were
the older Eastern Germans who
lost their jobs, he said. The winners
were the younger Germans who
will get many new opportunities.
Although many blame politics
for the fighting in Germany,
Schulz says economics were the
principal reason for the fighting in
the streets.
"Economically, the East was at
zero," Rupprecht said. "So people
fought not only for freedom or
political reasons."
The five say the main problem
between East and West Germans is
that many of them are not interest
ed in getting to know each other.
"Eastern and Western people
have to learn to get together,"
Werner said. "We would like it if
they could learn to understand
each other much better."
Outside their own country, the
group would like other nations'
views of Germany to change.
"I would like to see the world
around us learn to look at us in
the right way, not in a historical
way," Rupprecht said. "They
look at us in the light of World
War II and that has nothing to do
with Germany today."

video and will be screened at the Sun
day evening showcase of Texas video
makers, the Texas Show.
Green said "Beware Behave Be
Still" and "Be Still" show how
traumatic acts like sexual abuse
can continually haunt a victim in
his/her memory.
"It's really an exploration of the
cyclic nature of abuse itself and
also how the abuse gets in your
mind and haunts you," Green said.
He said "Residue" is about
surviving by putting parts of life
behind you.
"It's called "Residue" because
it's like the embers of a fire after
it's burned," Green said. "There
is something there that lasts."
Other works that will be shown
at The Texas Show are "Still Life,"
a computer animation exploration
dealing with perspective, by archi
tecture graduate student Jim
Walker, and "When I Was Six" a
computer animation exploration
of childhood remembrances by
former student Michelle Robinson.
Both Kinsella and Green said
they feel it is an honor to display
their work at the festival.
"The only people that have
seen my work have been the peo
ple working around me," Green
said. "I am really interested to see
what total strangers will think."
Bart Weiss, the director of the
festival said he thinks the Texas
A&M student and faculty work
is outstanding.
"It's amazing," Weiss said.
"A&M has a very sophisticated
computer graphics lab. The quali
ty of the work is just incredible."
Weiss said he hopes the festival
will grant more opportunities to
the students and faculty.
"I hope showing their work here
enables them to gain a reputation
and allow them to be seen else
where," he said. "Their work de
serves to be seen by many people."

‘Seascape’

At this point, the couple is
joined by the two sea lizards
(Richard Kretzer and Sarah Hen-
nessy) who have come ashore to
explore a life out of water. After
an initial confrontation, the four
decide to have an amiable con
versation. The creatures have
many questions about living on
land which force Nancy and

a single acoustic guitar flowing
along to Dylan's words.
At first, the songs sound drea
ry and naked. But as each stroke
of the guitar leads through to Dy
lan's musical spirit, one realizes
these folk songs were meticulous
ly chosen.
The original meaning behind
each song is blessed with Dylan's
own poetic interpretation.
"Blood In My Eyes" is a plain,
sad song, but it's not so dreary that
it gets lost in repetition. It rather
relaxes you with a bluesy feel.
"Delia" is yet another sad song.
Charlie to look at themselves
from the outside.
All actors give a personal touch
to their characters which brings
them to life and makes the play a
much richer experience for the au
dience. It is this aspect that keeps
the play flowing without any lag
time. You even forget you are
watching lizards discuss life.
With the witty dialogue of
Pulitzer Prize winning playwright
Edward Albee leading you
through, you'll find The Aggie
Players' "Seascape" a production
worth seeing.
but there's something so light and
easy about it that it invites the lis
tener to almost feel the lyrics.
The only lively song on the al
bum is "Stack A Lee." Another
dimension is added to this song
with the help of Dylan's musical
trademark, the harmonica.
It's fast and furious, and
sounds a lot like Dylan's old stuff.
Every song, though simple and
often slow, is blessed with Dy
lan's nostalgic sound.
As if Dylan produced tills album
while sitting around a crackling
camp fire, one can easily envision
his timeless voice emerging from
the dark, cold night, setting all the
campers at ease to reflect upon his
words, and upon what each song's
theme means in their lives.
'Flesh and Done’

his job, the road and sleeping with
other men's wives. He unexpect
edly encounters his past when
meets a hard drinking woman
named Kay Davies (Ryan). It
turns out that Kay was the
screaming baby who was left at
the scene of the murder.
Unfortunately, no surprises are
left from this point and the plot
begins to slow down.
Luckily, the acting surpasses

In addition, it was puzzling to
figure out why on God's green
earth Sinatra picked singers like
Bono from U2 to be a part of
"Duets." Although Bono's contri
bution to contemporary music is
profound, he is known for his
lyrics not his vocals. Bono's ren
dition of "I've Got You Under My
Skin" is slow and he sounds like
he is half asleep.

and vulnerable. Caan grinds thi
scenes with his intense tempe:
and Ryan plays the lonely, abusffl
wife with a quiet passion.
The strength of the film is cen
tered upon its characters and theii
secrets of the past, but these fat
tors alone can't carry the film to;
successful outcome.
From the scenes of buzzing ci
cadas to windy rows of raw col-
ton, the film gets lost in a lackol
surprises.
There's plenty of character de
velopment, but a sense of real,
straight to the bone substanceis
noticeably missing. And unfortu
nately, what's missing from "Flesh
and Bone" cannot go unnoticed.
But, "Duets" is not a failure
Sinatra does a splendid job with
Vandross in "The Lady is a
Tramp." Vandross' smooth voice
blends well with Sinatra's deliver)'
Another great rendition is the
duet with Baker in "Witchcraft.
The talented R&B songstress
sounds comfortable and her jazz
background sure doesn't hurt in
making this tune one of the best
ones on the album.
Sinatra took on a bold project
with "Duets." The result is far less
than perfect, but for any devoted
Frank fan, there are a few gems.
