Aero-Bike Almost Gets Off Ground But Not This Time
Shaky, jumpy light and dark in contrast and imagery Another home-made plane lays an egg as the runway collapses during an attempted take off by one of a couple of inventors who've spent two years building a queer-looking machine of hand-made parts, with bicycle pedals as motive power.

Shaky and Rolling dull in contrast Famed for his prowess in battles against the Turks, Saint Paolino leaves a colorful festival in his memory. Townspeople carry huge towers through the streets, in token of the lilies that greeted the saint on his return home.
Dilemma
This is a short and typical gangster-film noir, a double cross a la Jim Thompson. It's fairly simple, direct, and features some so-so acting from an ensemble cast of nobodies. The following are a few of the shots involved... Opens with an ECU of black water and thin white swirls moving in cautious circles, fade in title. Cut to a MS of a man in a suit, a gun in his hand, lying dead on a street while the narrator unfolds his story. Note, the narration is executed in faux- newsreel noir fashion. Cut to a MS of a wormy looking gangster sitting on a couch in a dark office; he lights a cigarette just as the camera pans right to a TV screen, then to another gangster sitting on an adjacent couch. Meanwhile the narrator introduces each fella by name, describing their job in the gangster family, their faults, their MO, etc. This happens a few more times; there are about six or seven gangsters in the room, reading casually, drinking casually, smoking casually, standing casually, being cool... casually. Cut to a MS of the gangster boss, a ringer for a prettier Edward G. Robinson, sitting at a desk and smoking a cigarette. He grills the boys, asking them who fingered Mugs Moran. Of course, no one fesses up. Cut to CU's of the stony henchmen, panning and cutting. CU of the wormy gangster, named Welch. The boss grills him. He gets paranoid that everyone thinks he did it but he didn't. The boss grills someone else but the camera stays on Welch who starts having a hammy inner monologue. Tight LS and MS of Welch walking into a dark alley. He lights a smoke and has an even worse inner monologue. He goes home and acts annoyingly nervous. MS of a phone and a lamp on a nightstand. Welch answers the phone. The boss knows who did it and he's on his way over. Welch thinks he's going to be "murdered" so he squeals to the police but before he can give his name the boss and henchman Henry enter the motel room. Boss reveals it was Henry and shoots him dead, then tells Welch to dump the body and the murder weapon, exits. MS of the body and weapon, Welch kneeling down, picks up gun. The police, in plainclothes, enter with their guns drawn. They handcuff Welch for murder.
Defensive Driving
Preview Cassette # 220957 A Defensive Driving CU of a sign on a desk, reads, "Education Unit"; tilt up to a MS of a Los Angeles police officer sitting at the desk, a bound folder before him. Says, "Officer Bruce on duty". Cut to a ECU of the dossier's first page which bears the name of the film's title. Cut to several high angle tight LS's of LA traffic during rush hour; several intersections; buses and trucks and passenger cars and so on. Cut to an over the shoulder MS of Charlie the bus driver driving a bus. Level, tight LS of bus driving down a hazy, palm tree lined LA boulevard on a late afternoon (great shot). MS of Officer Bruce in his office, playing with miniature cars and a scale model of an intersection. Head-on MS's of Charlie, still in uniform, driving his own passenger car home; there are many subjective angles as well as tight LS's of potential car accidents, near misses. Excellent shots of classic late 1940's to early 1950's American automobiles. Tight LS of Charlie pulling into his Southern California suburban neighborhood driveway; he parks the car, gets out, waves to his neighbor who is watering his lawn (in BG), picks up the late edition of the newspaper off of the driveway and enters his home.
July 19, 1995 - Part 1
(09:55:40) Mr. BEN-VENISTE. It seemed pretty clear with respect to the FBI, the Department of Justice and the Park Police that Mr. Nussbaum's batting average on the charm scene was not very high? Mr. HUBBELL. That's correct. It takes a little while to love Bernie like I do now. Mr. BEN-VENISTE. But there were, as you pointed out, very legitimate questions, very important questions of executive privilege and attorney-client privilege associated with the material in the Office of the Deputy Counsel to the President of the United States? Mr. HUBBELL. I don't know what was in Vince's off-ice to this day, other than pictures of his family, but I would assume in the Office of the Deputy White House Counsel there are documents that have very serious executive, attorney- client and national security issues. Mr. BEN-VENISTE. Some of those involved, you would have expected, matters of deliberation of the President of the United States with his Counsel, such as on issues of confirmation of nominees and selection of nominees to the most important appointive offices in the land? Mr. HUBBELL. I know that Vince worked on Supreme Court nominations, and there were files-1 don't know whether they were in his office or not- regarding those potential nominees. Mr. BEN-VENISTE. Is it correct that at the end of the conversation You had with Mr. Heymann, Mr. Heymann told you in response to Your volunteering to intercede with Mr. Nussbaum, if Mr. HeyMann thought it might be useful, that Mr. Heymann said no, it isn't necessary at this time. We've got it all worked out? Mr. HUBBELL. That is correct. Mr. BEN-VENISTE. Now, in addition to the important issues of executive privilege and attorney-client privilege, and in response to 80 Senator Shelby's question, why not just open the office tip for the investigators to look through everything, do you feel that there was any issue with Bernie Nussbaum on the question of Mr. Foster's personal privacy in the immediate aftermath of his death? Mr, HUBBELL, Again, Bernie can speak best about this, but I know that all of us were trying to be sensitive to the family's need for privacy at that very difficult time. Mr. BEN-VENISTE. Finally, the issue of a search warrant was raised by Senator Shelby. Mr. Hubbell, can you conceive of any way that on July 21, 1993, any magistrate or other judicial officer could have reasonably issued a search warrant for the Office of the Deputy Counsel to the President on the facts then presented? Mr. HUBBELL. You're asking for a legal opinion, and I'll give one, but I don't know what it's worth. I don't believe so. Mr. BEN-VENISTE. Thank you, sir. Mr. Chairman, I have no further questions. The CHAIRMAN. Senator Shelby, for purposes of concluding, and then we'll go to Senator Bond. Senator SHELBY. There's just a couple of things I'd like to clarify. If you're in the Justice Department, which you were at that time, and you had the FBI and the Park Police conducting an investigation, they're down at the White House, and the Counsel for the White House, the President of the United States, and Mr. Nussbaum is saying you can't go in that room, telling that to the Park Police and the FBI, who are doing their duties, wouldn't that lead a reasonable person to believe they're hiding something or they don't want you in there? Why couldn't you get a search warrant? If I were a magistrate, I'd certainly-and I've been one-I would have issued one if the FBI would have come in and said look, they're blocking access to something, we don't know what's in there, but we have a right to look in there to complete our investigation. Yet the White House Counsel, Mr. Hubbell, is saying no, you can't go in there.
