Reg Hartt: The CineForum (aka THE Public Enemy)

"As for really new ideas of any kind — no matter how ultimately profitable or otherwise successful some of them might prove to be — there is no leeway for such chancy trial, error and experimentation in the high-overhead economy of new construction. Old ideas can sometimes use new buildings. New ideas must use old buildings."–Jane Jacobs, THE DEATH AND LIFE OF GREAT AMERICAN CITIES. "Reg Hartt's CineForum is everything Jane Jacobs wrote about in THE DEATH AND LIFE OF GREAT AMERICAN CITIES. She was a regular."–Laura Lind, EYE Weekly. TIFF and THE BELL LIGHTBOX are new buildings in which may be found old ideas. THE CINEFORUM is a fountain of new ideas. New ideas, like new wine, are always rejected. We are not here to worship Christ. We are here to become Christ. C. S. Lewis said that. Leo Tolstoy said that. Reg Hartt says that. The Pope does not say that. 1 John 2:27 "You have no need that any man should teach you." That idea, in a nutshell, was the idea behind Toront's Rochdale College. Each Rochdalian was to be their own teacher. Jesus said, "Call no wo/man teacher. Let no wo/man call you teacher." Not many do that. Perhaps only one.
