Val

Depuis plus de 40 ans, Val Kilmer, l'un des acteurs les plus capricieux et/ou incompris d'Hollywood. En 2015, un cancer de la gorge l'astreint à des traitements. Mais s’il a survécu, les traitements ont eu raison de sa voix. Il ne peut plus s'exprimer que par courtes phrases qui restent à décrypter. Depuis l'enfance, ses deux frères, Wesley et Mark, Val a enregistré des films, vidéos avec leurs caméras. Des milliers d'heures de séquences, des films familiaux. C'est quand il eut perdu sa voix, qu'il eut le plus envie de se raconter. Documenter sa propre vie et son art à travers ces vidéos, la vie de Val en 109 minutes sonorisés par la voix de son fils, Jack Kilmer. Ce documentaire brut, follement original et sans faille révèle une vie vécue à l'extrême et un regard rempli de cœur, parfois hilarant, sur ce que signifie être un artiste et un homme complexe, surprenant, émouvant à découvrir.

Playhouse 90 is an American television anthology series that was telecast on CBS from 1956 to 1960 for a total of 133 episodes. It originated from CBS Television City in Los Angeles, California. Since live anthology drama series of the mid-1950s were usually hour-long shows, the title highlighted the network's intention to present something unusual, a weekly series of hour-and-a-half dramas rather than 60-minute plays. Playhouse 90 began as a pitch by Frank Stanton—the formidable, forward-thinking right-hand man to CBS chairman William S. Paley—during a brainstorming session for program ideas. The project was ultimately developed by Hubbell Robinson, a CBS vice president who received no screen credit on Playhouse 90 but is often described as its creator.

During the Golden Age of Television, DuPont Show of the Month was one of numerous anthology series telecast between 1949 and 1962. Superficially, it resembled Playhouse 90 and other anthologies, but DuPont Show of the Month focused less on contemporary dramas and more on adaptations of literary classics, including Oliver Twist, The Prince and the Pauper, Billy Budd, The Prisoner of Zenda, A Tale of Two Cities and The Count of Monte Cristo.
