MOVIE TALK: THE WHITE RIBBON WITH H. PETER REINKORDT Sunday, February 28 at 3:30 p.m. (following the 1:00 p.m. screening) Admission to the Movie Talk is free and open to the public. Admission for THE WHITE RIBBON is at regular Ross prices. The Movie Talk series is sponsored by the Friends of the Ross. ”Don't let anyone tell you too much about this spellbinder from Austrian writer-director Michael Haneke (Caché). Shot in stunning black-and-white by the gifted Christian Berger, THE WHITE RIBBON is a toxic blossom of images that burn into your memory. In pre-World War I Germany, a farm village is beset by accidents that may not be accidents. The Baron (Ulrich Tukur) dominates the village economy, just as the Pastor (Burghart Klaussner) holds brutal sway over the morality of the villagers and their families. It's on the faces of the children that Haneke tells his story of corruption and the grip of fascism. This haunting film never pushes itself on you. It trusts you to suss out the horror that lies beneath the veneer of innocence. You'll be knocked for a loop.”—Peter Travers, Rolling Stone H. Peter Reinkordt H. Peter Reinkordt is Professor of German at Doane College, Crete. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Nebraska in 1972 in German Language and Literature. Reinkordt has taught at a private secondary school in Switzerland, at UNL, and Nebraska Wesleyan before settling at Doane College in 1984. While his areas of special interest and research are German literature of the 20th century as well as German history and culture, he teaches the range of classes involving German language acquisition. His focus on contemporary history of Europe deals with fascism, the Holocaust and recent developments with special emphasis on Germany. He teaches a history courses on 20th century Europe, a course on Fascism in the period of 1900-1945 in Europe, and a German history class focusing on the post WW II period with emphasis on the political and cultural aspects of the divided and now united Germany. In the seventies Reinkordt lived and worked in Switzerland for four years, traveling widely in Europe as well as through Asia and North Africa. He keeps in touch with current European events by yearly trips to Europe to gather information as well as visiting Doane students studying abroad. He has been involved with the film program at the Ross since the early 1980’s, then the Sheldon Film Theater, and currently serves in the Outreach and Education Committee as a liaison member of the Board of Directors of the Mary Riepma Ross Media Arts Center.
