CLINTON 482-7062 Following Wednesday evening's presentation of the National Film Board's "Train of Dreams", a reception was held at Bruno's for Bluewater Centre staff, invited guests, and the film's writers. Here, Bluewater Centre Assistant Superinten- dent Sari Kraler, Centre Superintendent Carl DeGrandis, writer -associate producer Sally Bochner, writer -director John N. Smith, and writer -producer Sam Grana renew a friendship which began with the filming of the movie at the correctional in- stitution. (photo by Lou -Ann DeBruyn) Actors critique Train of Dreams By LOU -ANN DE BRUYN Acting talent abounds in Goderich and surrounding area as was evidenced at Wednesday's viewing of the National Film Board's Train of Dreams. A number of guests invited to attend last week's special showing were not there just to see the story of a young of- fender. They were there to see themselves on the big screen. For dozens of Huron County high school students, Train of Dreams was their first appearance in a film of any kind. September 1986 and November 4, 1987 will not likely be forgotten by many students. Last September saw the students audi- tioning for, winning places and filming the movie, filling in for the young of- fenders at Bluewater Centre who, accor- ding to the Young Offenders Act, cannot be identified in any way. November 4 will be remembered as the first day they saw themselves on a theatre screen. HOPING FOR CAREER For Marty Pelss, a former Clinton high school student now living in London, Train of Dreams was the first of what he hopes will be many acting assignments. "I hope to go on in acting. I'd definite- ly like to," he said after the screening. Pelss noted filming the movie was "a good experience" for students interested in an acting career. He also said the final product after a lot of filming is often surprising. "The movie on the screen was a lot more emotional. I thought it would be centred more in the detention setting with more rough and tough scenes," he said. Ron Govier, a grade 12 student at GDCI, and Todd Nurse, a former GDCI student, also received parts in the play as young offenders Stan and Neil respectively. Both young men found out about the filming from GDCI drama teacher Phil MacMillan. Although both admitted to liking the final film version, Govier noted the film did not really reflect life at Bluewater Centre as he saw it during the month he spent filming at the institution. "The movie showed the plot behind the person (how he got to the institution and what made him follow a life of crime) but a lot of it was phoney concerning the way the residents act out there (at Bluewater Centre). They were totally different than we portrayed them," Govier noted, adding, for example, the ATTENTION CANADIANS VACATIONING IN THE SUN BELT! '' A• • Q p uy.,-1• *Ai?

Clinton high school student Chris Ed- wards realized by watching the film that not every scene shot was used in the final production. "It was okay. I thought it would be better. They cut a lot of scenes including the one where we were standing around in the shower." For former GDCI student Kevin deJeu, now living in London, last September's filming wasn't the first time he had set foot in the Bluewater Centre. During the summer months, deJeu worked at the Centre. Because he was associated. with the institution more than the other students, the film perhaps meant more to him. It let him see how differently the producers portrayed life in an institution compared to what he had seen on a daily basis. "Even though it's fiction, it's so close to the truth," deJeu said. "It represents this institution (Bluewater Centre) fairly accurately with only a few differences. "I didn't think the movie would be Turn to page 5 • /ITN�'QVffN 482-7103 PECK APPLIANCES "IN THE HEART OF DOWNTOWN VARNA" NOTICE Ratepayers of The Town of Clinton are reminded that the Fourth Instal- ment of 1987 Taxes are due and payable by November 15, 1987 at TOWN'S CLERK'S OFFICE or to Box 400, Clinton, Ont.
