About

Palacky: Montage VII (1986/1998)

A Film By Ben Urish

Photography By Rob McHenry, Scott Phillips

Music By Joel Sanderson

Editing Assistant: Milton R. Machuka

Inspired by and meant to honor the filmmakers and films of the original Montage series, this film examines a Bohemian cemetery in Western Kansas. Photographer Rob McHenry andthen-future scenarist and novelist Scott Phillips each did some of the cinematography. I suggested ideas for it, and the music score was composed and performed by mixed/multi-media artist JoelSanderson.

The Montage Series

By Ben Urish

Beginning in 1951 Wichita, Kansas had a vibrant and adventurous film society. TheWichita Film Society (WFS) was a focal point for those interested in the cinema arts andwas both an institution of education, exhibition, and a hub for other aspects of the local artand theater scenes.

By the late 1950s, the WFS had several members and frequent patrons who wanted tomake films of their own and in 1959, three of them formed Montage Productions, named aftertheir interest in the films (and film theories) of Sergei Eisenstein and V.I Pudovkin. The filmsin the series eventually were tied together by two broad and broadly defined attributes: 1) theywere about people or places (or both) in Kansas, and 2) the films were artistic representationsof other artistic representations, broadly defined. The series lasted until 1965 by which timethe members' careers took them away from Wichita and each other. Each film had its premiereat a WFS screening.

Credits as they appear in the films and a brief synopsis of the films are printed below.

In the early and mid-1980s, I researched the history of The Wichita Film Society and asa result, came across the information about the Montage films written here.
