on this session. First of all, Mrs. Crosby carried the long-standing bill to include pick up trucks in the excise tax distribution formula. That bill is currently on its way to Senate. Secondly, Mrs. Crosby carried the amendment to exclude agriculture from the new workers’ compensation bill. Farm Bureau and farmers considered the bill an burden on farmers by placing an expensive tax on the agriculture community that would hit small operations the hardest. UNDER THE ORIGINAL bill, any farm that made more than $5,000 a year would have to provide worker’s compensation coverage. The bill could reach $12,000 a year for small farmers. “I seriously doubt if any business could survive under those conditions,” Mrs. Crosby said. “As I said on the House floor, I believe this will induce small farmers to stay in business, which will benefit workers across Indiana.”

‘Shipwrecked’ is Disney surprise

Editor’s note: Gordon Walters is professor of romance languages at DePauw University, where he teaches a variety of courses in film, including History of Film and Film Criticism. Walters has written on film for several publications and is a regular contributor to “Cinema Annual.” Walters’ reviews will appear in the Banner-Graphic on a regular basis. By GORDON WALTERS Banner Graphic Film Critic We can always depend on the good old Walt Disney operation to furnish us with kids movies that feature high production values, passable acting and attractive if not imaginative or spectacular photography and capable design. “Shipwrecked” is not as good in these respects as the other current Disney release, “White Fang,” but it serves as it is supposed to serve as entertainment, with just a dash of education, for youngsters. IN FACT, A REAL mystery is “Shipwrecked’s” PG rating: Aside from glimpses of beasties (spiders, snakes and a gorilla), there’s nothing here that would upset any child mature enough to follow a rather familiar 9-minute narrative. And familiar “Shipwrecked” is a dash of “Treasure Island,” a smidgeon of “Robinson Crusoe” and a taste of “Mutiny on the Bounty” good people, bad people, pirates, a storm at sea, shipwreck, a final chase, the pursuit of booty and a few moments of pubescent romance thrown in for good measure. It’s all here. At the center of “Shipwrecked” is young Norwegian Hakon Hakonsen (Stian Smestad), who hires on as a ship’s boy when his sailor father is disabled and the family’s home is threatened with foreclosure. The vessel is bound for India, but Hakon and the ship’s crew have to deal with a nasty good-for-nothing named John Merrick (Gabriel Byrne) and a gang of on-board cutthroats. MERRICK DOES IN the kindly ship’s captain, a friend of

the boy’s father, and seizes control of the clipper. As Merrick is about to have Hakon punished for sheltering a stowaway named Mary (Louisa Haigh), lightening strikes the ship’s mast, everyone winds up in the water and Hakon wakes up later on a Southsea island. In short, “Shipwrecked” is your basic boy’s adventure tale, complete with fantasy-fulfillment and plot developments that reinforce traditional values responsibility, courage, self-reliance and the ability to drink one’s fill of coconut milk. Action is the very soul of the film, although the occasional comic relief works reasonably well. When the rough-and-tough grog-drinking crewmen tease Hakon about downing a mug full of milk, the boy avenges himself by ordering the scruffy bunch a round of his beverage. And we have to deal with only momentary silliness as when the weeping, homesick, marooned Hakon is comforted by a gorilla (On a South Pacific island?). ADULTS MAY find “Shipwrecked” slow going and somewhat lifeless director Nils Gaup might have given us a nastier Merrick and a less angelic Hakon but the movie, cliches and all, pleases and teaches the young children who are its target audience and that’s what counts. *** “Shipwrecked” is currently playing at Ashley Square Twin Cinemas in Greencastle.
