• 115- CINEKINDL -- A VARIETY OF FILMS ABOUT THE WORLD OF YOUNG PEOPLE

MUNICH, June 7, 2024 -- The 41st edition of the Munich International Film Festival will give young audiences in particular a lot to look forward to. Programming director Tobi Krell aka Checker Tobi and co-curator Tobi Obermeier will once again present a thoughtfully compiled selection of films for the young and young-at-heart aged 5 and up. The former KINDERFILMFEST MÜNCHEN, a standalone competition section at the festival, will for the first time be held using its new name, CineKindl.  

Inauguration of the CineKindl section 
•••• On the morning of June 29, 2024, the CineKindl section will officially be inaugurated by programming director Tobi Krell. The CineKindl trailer, shot by a group of young people under the guidance of director Axel Ranisch, will be shown on the big screen for the first time. The highlight at the opening of this section will be the world premiere of the documentary "Sisterqueens". In her graduation film from the Baden-Württemberg Film Academy, director Clara Stella Hüneke gets up close and personal with a Berlin-based initiative that promotes feminist rap by and for girls. The film follows three young female protagonists for several years as they find their voice and begin to give artistic expression to their political demands. ••••
•••• "Once again this year, we have put together a very diverse program that reflects all cinematic forms and that we are very proud of. For me, the best thing about the whole festival work is talking about the films with our young audience after each screening. I particularly look forward to that." says CineKindl programming director Tobi Krell ("Checker Tobi"). 

The films of CineKindl
•••• In addition to the opening film, the CineKindl section includes a diverse selection of short and feature-length films. 
••••Celebrating its German premiere at the Munich International Film Festival is "Dìdi", the motion-picture debut of Oscar-nominated director Sean Wang and winner of the audience award at the renowned Sundance Film Festival. This film portrays a 13-year-old facing the challenges of puberty in a California suburb in the tumultuous early days of social media.
•••• Lucy Cohen's visually expressive first feature film, "Edge of Summer", takes a different look at coming of age. On the picturesque Cornish coast, two 11-year-olds must come to terms with a serious loss. This film will also be screened in the International Independents section. 
•••• The program also includes Mascha Halberstad's animated film "Fox and Hare Save the Forest", an entertaining story that takes place in a world of endearing animals, where a fox and a hare must defend their home against a megalomaniacal beaver.
•••• Also under threat is the home of the young protagonist in "Through Rocks and Clouds" by Franco García Becerra. With the help of his parents and neighbors, 8-year-old Feliciano fights back against an unscrupulous mining company that is threatening his home in the Peruvian Andes. 
•••• Juliette and Carmen are just as brave in the animated film "Sirocco and the Kingdom of the Winds" by Benoît Chieux. The two sisters discover a magical gateway to the world of their favorite book and must demonstrate their bravery in order to reunite. 
•••• "The Major Tones" by Ingrid Pokropek tells the story of Ana, a 14-year-old girl who receives mysterious messages via the metal plate in her arm and embarks on a minor odyssey across Buenos Aires in an attempt to decode them. 
•••• • In "Lars Is LOL", Amanda is assigned to look after her new classmate, Lars, who has Down's syndrome. Eirik Sæter Stordahl's debut film is a touching story about friendship, inclusivity, and the courage to stand up to bullying and peer pressure. 
•••• A further highlight is "Shorts for Kids", a program of short films recommended for children aged 8 and above. In 90 minutes, including film discussions, this program presents a collection of five short films that focus on great summertime emotions, the resoluteness of children, and affection for animals, among other things. 

Presentation of the CineKindl Award 
•••• Since 2022, the film production company megaherz has been presenting the CineKindl Award for the best film in the CineKindl section at the Munich International Film Festival. This award for outstanding directorial work is presented by an independent jury. Like the festival's other awards, the CineKindl Award will for the first time reflect the new CineWave design. 
•••• Alongside the CineKindl Award, the audience, too, will be stepping up. After each screening, viewers will have the opportunity to vote for the Audience Award. 
•••• The film that receives the Audience Award will be given an additional screening on July 7, 2024 at 3:30 pm at HFF Kino 1. 
••••From Monday to Friday, school classes will have the opportunity to attend the festival as a group. Free educational materials for preparation and follow-up work in the classroom will be available on the festival's website. 
Online school workshop with Tobi Krell ("Checker Tobi") 
•••• As part of our CineYou program and in cooperation with the film production company megaherz, the Munich International Film Festival will once again be offering an online workshop for school classes on the topic of "Film and Film Education". This "lesson in film" gives schoolchildren a behind-the-scenes look at the world of film, from the development of a scene to the tricks used in production. 
•••• This year, participants will be given an exclusive look into the making of the documentary "Sisterqueens" and the animated film "Fox and Hare Save the Forest". The 40-minute workshop will be hosted by Tobi Krell. Educational materials will also be provided for use in the classroom.

• CineWaves motiv will be gracing the Munich Film Fest
The international FILMFEST MÜNCHEN is giving its awards a coordinated design that will be reflected across the festival
•••• Starting this year, the CineWaves will be the motif gracing the awards presented at Munich's international film festival.
•••• "FILMFEST MÜNCHEN has given itself a fresh iconography inspired by one of Munich's most scenic locations: the incomparable Isar River. The flow of the water is inspiring and surprising. It constantly delivers something new. It encourages interaction and refreshment, especially in the summer," say festival director Christoph Gröner and artistic co-director Julia Weigl.
•••• The design is based on footage of flowing water which was intentionally distorted by non-binary artist PPPANIK using a play of colors and other effects, thus becoming a cinematic statement in itself. We're drawn into a summery, lush, blue-green colorscape that will remind everyone in Munich of the Isar, the Eisbach, and the English Garden.
•••• During the festival period from June 28 to July 7, all of Munich's cinematic events will reflect this design, which will be featured prominently at the opening at the Gasteig HP8. On Saturday, June 29, FILMFEST MÜNCHEN will hold its festive opening gala -- with a film and thousands of guests who will already be making waves on the first weekend of the festival.

KATE WINSLET
CINEMERIT AWARD WINNER 2024  

• 115- Kate Winslet honored for outstanding artistic achievement 
••• The Munich International Film Festival will this year again have the privilege of presenting two CineMerit Awards. Alongside Jessica Lange, multiple award-winning actress Kate Winslet will be honored for her achievements in the service of film. Winslet will personally introduce the European premiere of her film "Lee," which she stars in and produced about photographer Lee Miller. It also stars Marion Cotillard, Andrea Riseborough, Andy Samberg, Josh O'Connor, and Alexander Skarsgår. The film will be released to cinemas across Germany on September 26, 2024.   
••••Since 1997, the Munich International Film Festival has been honoring outstanding personalities in international filmmaking with the CineMerit Award for their achievements in the art of film. This event will include an Extended Film Talk with Kate Winslet.   
•••• Kate Winslet portrays a woman who was far ahead of her time and who left behind an extensive artistic and intellectual legacy. Winslet began developing the project in 2016 with Lee Miller's son, Antony Penrose. Struck by the defining decade of Lee's life which she spent as a war correspondent on the front line in Europe during World War II, Kate, alongside Antony Lee, immersed herself in Lee's personal archival material to in order to discover the experiences that drove Lee to use her voice as a witness to war.
•••• "Lee" (German title: "Die Fotografin") is the true story of a woman ahead of her time; courageous, decisive and honest, who makes decisions on her own terms.
••• Lee Miller, once avantgarde photograper Man Ray's muse, emancipated herself by going from model to photographer. She took fashion photographs in bombed-out London for "Vogue" and struggled to be given the opportunity to report from the front. In May 1945, she documented the newly liberated Buchenwald and Dachau concentration camps. Her terrifying images are an important record of the war that would haunt her for the rest of her life.
•••• After battling her way through the capture of Saint Malo, Lee joins forces with fellow photographer David E. Scherman (Andy Samberg). Lee and Scherman document the liberation of Paris. They sneak into Hitler's abandoned Munich home -- where Scherman captures the most defining image of Lee herself, bathing in the Führer's bathtub. They are among the first photographers to enter the Buchenwald and Dachau camps, where Lee crafts a series of terrifying images, that will sear themselves into Lee's fragmenting mental state in the years beyond the war.  
•••• "'Lee' is a wonderfully intense character portrait. We're delighted that Kate Winslet will be celebrating the film's European premiere with us in Munich. It's important to us that the Munich International Film Festival, with its many films and voices, sends a clear signal for democracy, diversity, and cohesion," say festival director Christoph Gröner and artistic co-director Julia Weigl.
•••• The Munich International Film Festival will be held from June 28 to July 7, 2024. Its opening gala will be held at the Gasteig HP8 on Saturday, June 29. The festival center will once again be at the Amerikahaus in the museum district.

•••As beloved Broadway star Lillian Hall (Jessica Lange) pours her heart, soul, and time into preparing for her next role, she finds herself blindsided by confusion and forgetfulness. Battling against all odds to make it to opening night while holding on to her fading memories and identity, she must navigate a tumultuous emotional journey: balancing her desire for the spotlight and the stark demands of the real world.
•••In addition to Jessica Lange, "The Great Lillian Hall" also stars Kathy Bates, Lily Rabe, Jesse Williams, and Pierce Brosnan.

•106- ICLE Statement on the FCC's Net Neutrality Rule
PORTLAND, Ore. (April 23, 2024) -- The International Center for Law & Economics (ICLE) offers the following statement on today's vote by the Federal Communications Commission (FTC) to adopt a rule classifying internet service providers (ISPs) under Title II of the Communications Act.
•••• The following quote can be attributed to ICLE Senior Scholar Eric Fruits:
•••• Title II is much more than net neutrality. It is the same type of expansive and heavy-handed regulation that governs public utilities. The FCC's rule is a sharp reversal from decades of light-touch regulation that has fostered America's leadership in broadband innovation and investment. The industry would face the yoke of onerous federal regulation and meddling that would stifle and slow future investment and experimentation.

• 106- Net Neutrality: Regulation for Ideology's Sake
Tom Giovanetti, IPI
•••• Well, that didn't take long. After the Biden administration finally secured the necessary commissioners to form an operating 3-2 Democrat majority, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) announced Wednesday that it will hold a vote to again reclassify broadband networks under Title II of the Communications Act of 1934.
•••• A brief history. Activists have been calling for federal regulation of the internet since the 1990s, but the Clinton and Bush administrations wisely took a light-touch approach, understanding that regulation would impose unintended consequences on this nascent technology.
•••• As the broadband revolution began in the 2000s, the FCC chose to classify broadband networks as Title I information services rather than as Title II common carrier services. The difference was significant, because under Title II the FCC would have almost unlimited regulatory power over broadband.
•••• Over the 20+-year history, broadband network were only classified as Title II common carriers for a brief two years, from 2015 until 2017. The Trump administration's FCC returned broadband services to their original Title I classification.
•••• Since then, broadband speeds have increased, and real broadband prices adjusted for inflation have fallen 12 percent since 2017.

• 101- The Octogenerian - ATAS a glittering dream - By Syd Cassyd
Permission was given by Syd Cassyd to Josie Cory, TVI for publishing.
Hollywood, CA - The glittering dreams of the world for a new culture and perhaps world peace through television and radio turned to ashes when Hitler used all media to destroy the dreams and bodies of more than 30 million persons.
•••• When in 1946 seven industryites in communications joined me in founding the "first generation" of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, we didn't foresee that in 43 years we would get the recognition that the "third generation" TV Academy has today,
••••We weren't naïve, for since Jan. 6, 1884, the first TV system had already been patented. For those 62 years world leaders had already visualized the impact of the moving image of television on society. The problems in America was not when, but who would control the new technology.
••••Because there are three generations of the Academy, each of the latter two calling themselves the "new" Academy, undoubtedly when the foundation selects people for the Hall of Fame, no one will be around to know that back in 1946, he was a "founder."
••••As Fred Sage, the fine actor in the "Wonder Years" notes, each generation has their own heroes.

• 101- History of the Television Academy - The Beginning: Syd Cassyd's Dream
The history of the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (ATAS) dates to the earliest days of the television industry itself. When Syd Cassyd, its founder, first conceived of the organization, he envisioned a serious forum where all aspects and concerns of the fledgling medium could be discussed. Flash and glamor were of no interest to Cassyd. Indeed, for years he refused to even consider the notion of handing out awards.

"He thought television was a really wonderful tool for education," recalled his daughter, Donna Cassyd. "He used to make us watch shows like Omnibus, with Alistair Cook."

Fortunately for Cassyd and the other founders of the Television Academy, the organization eventually became both a place for serious discussion as well as a place to celebrate the industry's finest achievements with its annual Emmy Awards ceremonies.

• 115- NAB Show Get Ready to Walk the Show Floor at NAB, April 14
The NAB Show Daily brings First Look, a glimpse at the innovations in technology and new products you will see at the show, along with some exhibitor viewpoints and events happening on the show floor. The show will open its exhibit floor on April 14, Las Vegas.

HUNT VALLEY, Md. & ARLINGTON, Va. -- In an notable development that could help more public broadcasters get on the air with NextGen TV services, Sinclair Broadcast Group and America's Public Television Stations (APTS) have announced that in markets where Sinclair has deployed a NextGen TV Broadcast Service (aka ATSC 3.0) and a public television station has not, Sinclair will provide free carriage of a virtual channel from that public television station.
•••• Carriage of a broadcast-enabled virtual channel involves transmitting programming data within the NextGen signal that allows over-the-air viewers with NextGen TVs to see and select the channel in their programming guide and access the channel seamlessly over the Internet. 
••••Under this arrangement, Sinclair will provide hosting at no cost to the public television station. The public television stations will also have the option to pass through programming in high dynamic range (HDR), significantly enhancing the video quality to the viewers. Technologies such as Advanced HDR by Technicolor will allow content to be visually enhanced on NextGen TVs that support the improved picture format.
••••"America's Public Television Stations partner with Sinclair to offer more NextGen service to more public television viewers," said Patrick Butler, president and CEO of APTS. "We are proud to have helped public television stations in almost 30 markets make the transition to the NextGen TV broadcast standard. This partnership with Sinclair will help serve local communities while we work with other public television stations to transition to NextGen TV to advance their public service missions."
••••"We are thrilled to continue our partnership with America's Public Television Stations to help bring the next generation of television to all viewers," said Rob Weisbord, Sinclair's chief operating officer and president of Broadcast. "For public television stations that face challenges in launching NextGen service, we hope that this offer will help get them in the advanced TV game and set the stage for their eventual launch of this spectacular service over the air."

• 102- Nathan B. Stubblefield, the Man History Overheard
By Harvey Geller
•••• In Life's current Bicentennial issue, radio checks in, at #86 on the hot "100 Events That Shaped America," 19 buttons behind Bell's telephone. Erroneously, Life lists Guglielmo Marcon's dots and dashes as the first wireless broadcast, a fable echoed by the World Almanac and Encyclopedia Britannica. It's a forgivable mumpsimus, since the evidence offered on the following pages has not, until now, appeared in any national publication.
•••• The birth of broadcasting is a bizarre soap opera saga, a lacrymal legend of mystery, machination, ephemeral enshrinement, decline, disillusionment and disaster. It's denouncement dissolves six miles north of Murray, Kentucky, in a two-room shanty constructed of pine and cornstalks, where radio's uncelebrated architect is discovered 48 hours after his death, his records scattered, his equipment destroyed, his brain partly eaten by rats. Even local radio fails to mention his demise. He is Nathan Beverly Stubblefield, the man history over-heard and then overlooked.

The PRC's administrative climate in comparison is much less restrictive now and China's open door policy enables many entertainers to introduce themselves to the populace Chinese audiences.

• 114- Scott B. Whitenack-Stubblefield Esq., great-grand son of wireless telephone inventor, Nathan B. Stubblefield, died - By Troy Cory
Scott Bryan Whitenack passed away untimely on September 18, in Los Angeles, CA.
•••• Scott, aka Scott Stubblefield, was one of four children with siblings, Alden, Keith, and Priscilla. (His brother Keith pre-ceded him in death at the age of 32). His parents were Troy Cory Stubblefield, an entertainer and author and Dorothy Swafford, owner of a furniture and antiques retail store. Scott's children are Steven, David and grand-children, William, Bruce, Cora and Max, borne to Steven and Skylark. Scott's great-grandfather is Nathan B. Stubblefield, the inventor of Radio, in 1882, and patent holder of the wireless telephone (1908) and his great-great-great .... grandparents were - John and Priscilla Alden who were part of the pilgrimage who sailed on the Mayflower to Plymouth Rock from England in 1620.

(The Stubblefield story is incorporated within several photographs and denotes of and about S Scott to show how their personal ambitions and dreams parallel each other - both died - before their dreams and ambitions were fulfilled)

During the time he studied for the State Bar, Scott lived with Josie and myself on our family estate in Pasadena. He passed the State Bar the first time and was among only 33% to do so.
The balance of time was spent doing cinematography for my TV shows, which he considered an artistic outlet besides his major life's work, in the field of law. After he passed the State Bar he handled numerous legal cases and ended up working as an associate lawyer with Melvin Belli with whom he engaged in several cases and won a lawsuit that became precedent case law. Whitenack was committed to his legal profession for over three decades.•
r••• If you needed legal advice or help with a motion filing, Scott was there with his trusty law books. He was very intelligent, outspoken and an independent thinker.
•••• He also was a family man, who loved hiking and scuba diving, a good game of tennis and enjoyed bringing his sons to Paramount Ranch for regular family outings and Father's Day get-togethers.
•••• As to his love for cinematography he videotaped additional segments for the movie "Christmas around the World." Scott later became my producer and cinematographer for "To Catch a Dream" filmed in Europe. The video project brought him and the production team to Paris, Venice, Cannes, Munich and Salzburg. Said footage with perfect picture-book pans of the Eiffel Tower, the Seine River, the leaning Tower of Pisa and the Venice Bridge of Sigh, is a legacy he left behind for us.
•••• In the early 90s during the writing of our 4-volume set of books entitled "the SMART-DAAF Boys" about the invention of radio and the the wireless telephone, Scott lent a helpful hand in giving his legal aspect of his great-grandfather Nathan Stubblefield's copyrighted and patented invention. He also was the co-author of "Bank America, the Tortfeasor." •

••••

at LA Herald-Express columnist Harrison Carroll's Cinema Reporting Prize press conference.

•••• His favorite poem is found on a card he prepared for one of my Father's Days titled "The Force That Through The Green Fuse Drives The Flower."

••••• He leaves behind his father, Troy Cory-Stubblefield, his mother Dorothy Steele, sister Priscilla Stubblefield Cory, brother and sister-in-law Alden and Sara Stubblefield, step mother Josie Cory-Stubblefield, sons David and Steven, daughter-in law Skylar, and great-grandchildren, William, Bruce, Cora and Max; Nephew Ryan White, and niece Jenny Wharton.
