Corliss Lamont: Renegade Patriot
Audio Segments in RealAudio^® and MP3

Several years ago, Corliss Lamont's Grandson, Jonathan Heap, a Hollywood feature film director and television producer, shot a 16mm film about his grandfather called Corliss Lamont: Renegade Patriot. The film exists only in rough cut form, but presented here are five audio segments from the sound track of the film, as well as some stills and a transcription of the dialogue.

The primary topic of discussion in these audio clips is Corliss Lamont and his run-in with Senator Joseph McCarthy and the House Un-American Activities Committee.

The RealNetworks™ RealPlayer^® or RealPlayer Plus™ program is required in order to play these files. If you don't already have a copy of one of these products installed on your system, you may download RealPlayer for free from the RealNetworks Web site.

Playback of these files, which will be pseudo-streamed via HTTP, requires a 56 kbps or faster Internet connection. If your browser supports the RealAudio plug-in (Content-Type audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin), just click on the Play button within the embedded Player to hear the file. For browsers which don't support plug-ins, or if the plug-in is not installed, use the text link to launch the external Player program (Content-Type audio/x-pn-realaudio).

As an alternate file format, we've also provided MPEG-2 Layer III (ISO/IEC 13818-3) files, with both M3U (Content-Type audio/x-mpegurl) playlist links for HTTP pseudo-streaming and direct MP3 (Content-Type audio/x-mpeg) links. The MP3 files have a 24 kbps data rate and therefore should stream even with a dial-up Internet connection.

Microsoft's Windows Media Player (WMP) program, currently available for free for Win 9x/Me and Win NT/2K/XP/Vista/7 from the Microsoft Web site can also be used to play the M3U/MP3 files presented on the following five Web pages.
