A. Land
If you enjoy the romance of the high seas, this film
is for you. Teenager Tom Dudley hides on a ship
sailing to the Americas. He hopes to become rich
but that's not how things end for Tom. Although
made in the 1970s with none of the special effects
we expect today, this film is a fine piece of story
telling.
B. The Tower
This movie was in cinemas last year and it is director
Blake Cole’s best film. The film is very close to the
original book and the main characters are played
beautifully by two unknown young actors. They bring
the past back to life and make you really care about
them. So when they eventually marry you’ll have a
tear in your eye!
C. Blaze
This film may not be full of Hollywood stars but it's
full of high-speed chases, amazing computer
graphics and fantastic music. In the year 4838,
Jonas leaves the world he loves to look for work on
a distant planet. However, he finds more than he
expected. This film is based on the popular cartoon
novel by Toshio Yoshida.
D. Net Worth
Vince is a science geek who spends ah his time
playing computer games. So everyone is surprised
when he suddenly becomes a millionaire after
inventing a new game that people can play on the
internet. Laugh out loud as Vince enjoys himself
being the new ‘Mr Popular’ at school.
E. Star Child
Sunny Jones, played by Bonny Wild, is a teenager
who finds herself in the land of Zorn, under the spell
of an evil queen. Although it’s not in colour, the
singing and dancing and Wild’s wonderful voice
bring the film to life and make it as enjoyable today
as it was back in 1941, when it was made.
F. Downlord
In director Guss Hall's first film, Katie's life is
controlled by the tracks she's listening to on her
iPod. She falls in love with Toby while she's listening
to love songs but things go wrong between them
when she starts listening to modern jazz! Well
known stars Hedda Gold and Jake Myers keep the
laughs coming throughout the film.
G. Making it
Fran is a real young pop singer who dreams of being
famous in this documentary drama. The director,
Bob Johansson, chose to film this movie in black
and white and the final effect is wonderful. The film
shows just how hard it is to make dreams come true.
H. Catch
Harry Black is a spy, at least he says he is, but then
he meets and falls in love with Greta who might
actually be a spy. There are some amusing, high
speed conversations in this film, so listen carefully
and enjoy the action. Arc they spies or not? You’ll
only find out in the final scene.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or B on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 30 to 37.

  Accustomed though we are to speaking of the films made before 1927 as “silent”, the film has never been, in the full sense of the word, silent. From the very beginning, music was regarded as an indispensable accompaniment; when the Lumiere films were shown at the first public film exhibition in the United States in February 1896, they were accompanied by piano improvisations on popular tunes. At first, the music played bore no special relationship to the films; an accompaniment of any kind was sufficient. Within a very short time, however, the incongruity of playing lively music to a solemn film became apparent, and film pianists began to take some care in matching their pieces to the mood of the film.

  As movie theaters grew in number and importance, a violinist, and perhaps a cellist, would be added to the pianist in certain cases, and in the larger movie theaters small orchestras were formed. For a number of years the selection of music for each film program rested entirely in the hands of the conductor or leader of the orchestra, and very often the principal qualification for holding such a position was not skill or taste so much as the ownership of a large personal library of musical pieces. Since the conductor seldom saw the films until the night before the y were to be shown (if, indeed, the conductor was lucky enough to see them then), the musical arrangement was normally improvised in the greatest hurry.

  To help meet this difficulty, film distributing companies started the practice of publishing suggestions for musical accompaniments. In 1909, for example, the Edison Company began issuing with their films such indications of mood as “pleasant’, “sad”, “lively”. The suggestions became more explicit, and so emerged the musical cue sheet containing indications of mood, the titles of suitable pieces of music, and precise directions to show where one piece led into the next.

  Certain films had music especially composed for them. The most famous of these early specialscores was that composed and arranged for D. w. Griffith’s film Birth of a Nation, which was released in 1915.

Which of the following notations is most likely to have been included on a musical cue sheet of the early 1900's?

A. “Key of c major”

B. “Piano, violin” 

C.  “Calm, peaceful”

D. “Directed by D. w. Griffith”
