Another fm has been added to
the growing leion of "ocially
concerned motion pictures."
"WUSA" is a film about a radio
station in some unnamed part of
the country, a station that
specializes in the art of
propagandizing the news, to the
Right. "WUSA" believes "when
the news is treated right, people
respond t) it, like music."
Paul Newman plays a wandering
alcoholic disc jockey who catches
on with the station. He realizes that
the station is biased, and Fascist
inspired, but won't get involved.
Joanne Woodward plays the
wandering, aging "woman of the
night" who catches on with
Nevnan, while he's in the process
of catching on with "WUSA"
"WUSA" is an interesting film,
in some ways informative. The
problem is that the picture is
spread a little too thin. Like many
of the current politically involved
films. "WUSA" is very concerned
with getting the message across,
whatever the particular message
is. The danger here is that by
getting across a message, good
film making technique is
sometimes abandoned.
"WUSA" drags at times, and due
to the thinness of the plot, there is
periodic confusion. At one point in
the film Anthony Perkins is duped,
Into collecting biased information
for the station, and doesn't know I

it; unles you watch closely, you
won't either.
One very interesting thing about
"WUSA" is that it attacks the anti-'
hero. In the last few years, the
anti-hero has become the star. All
lovable and interesting film;
characters have been unorthadox i
and in most cases on the other side
of the law.
"WUSA" slaps hard at the
uninvolved. Instead of the'
adulation usually accorded
characters like James Bond, Butch
Cassidy, and the cast of
"M-A-S-H," "WUSA" attacks its
anti-hero, Paul Newman.
Newman is the perfect drop-out,
he's witty, calm in the face of all
danger, and In general, the perfect
rogue. Why then is he treated so,
harshly by the film? Because if'
"WUSA" did nothing else, itI
identified the real enemy. This I
enemy is the man who knows
what's going on and refuses to get
involved. It points the finger of
guilt at the cynical fool who has a
chance to expose dishonesty and
corruption, but is "too busy."
"WUSA" makes a statement,
that the man who knows what's
going on and does not act is as
guilty as anyone concerned and
more quilty than some. It implies
that with knowledge or ability,
such as Newman's in "WUSA"
goes a responsibility. "WUSA"
may have many flaws, but for this
one statement alone, it deserves to
be seen.
