On the Edge of 'Blade Runner'
Jul 15, 2000Il s'agit du rare documentaire britannique de Channel 4 sur Blade Runner, qui donne un aperçu de son histoire grâce à des interviews de Ridley Scott, des scénaristes et de presque tous les acteurs. Des entretiens avec le personnel de production, y compris Ridley, donnent des détails sur le processus créatif et l'agitation pendant la préproduction. Les histoires de Paul M. Sammon et Fancher donnent un aperçu de Philip K. Dick et des origines de Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep ? Les interviews des acteurs sont entrelacées, à l'exception notable de Harrison Ford et Sean Young. Ces entretiens nous donnent une idée de la difficulté et de la frustration que représentait la réalisation du film, en raison d'un réalisateur exigeant, sans alliés, et de conditions de chaleur, d'humidité et de smog, qui ajoutaient à l'atmosphère de pression que tout le monde ressentait à mesure que le film dépassait le budget...

Police Story
Dec 03, 1988Police Story is an anthology television crime drama. The show was the brainchild of author and former policeman Joseph Wambaugh and represented a major step forward in the realistic depiction of police work and violence on network TV. Although it was an anthology, there were certain things that all episodes had in common; for instance, the main character in each episode was a police officer. The setting was always Los Angeles and the characters always worked for some branch of the LAPD. Notwithstanding the anthology format, there were recurring characters. Scott Brady appeared in more than a dozen episodes as "Vinnie," a former cop who, upon retirement, had opened a bar catering to police officers, and who acted as a sort of Greek chorus during the run of the series, commenting on the characters and plots.

Jul 04, 1961Produite en même temps que Twilight Zone, cette série a nourri l'intérêt croissant pour le paranormal d'une manière différente.

Aucune solution à ces mystères n'a jamais été trouvée, et les téléspectateurs ne pouvaient que se demander, et si c'était vrai ?

Law of the Plainsman
May 05, 1960Law of the Plainsman is a Western television series starring Michael Ansara that aired on the NBC television network from October 1, 1959, until May 5, 1960. The character of Native American U.S. Marshal Sam Buckhart was introduced in two episodes of the popular ABC Western television series The Rifleman starring Chuck Connors as Lucas McCain.
Law of the Plainsman is distinctive and unique in that it was one of the few television programs that featured a Native American as the lead character, a bold move for U.S.network television at that time. Ansara had earlier appeared in the series Broken Arrow, having portrayed the Apache chief, Cochise. Ansara, however, was not Native American but of Syrian descent.
Ansara played Sam Buckhart, an Apache Indian who saved the life of a U.S. Cavalry officer after an Indian ambush. When the officer died, he left Sam money that was used for an education at private schools and Harvard University. After school, he returned to New Mexico where he became a Deputy Marshal working for Marshal Andy Morrison. He lived in a boarding house run by Martha Commager. The only other continuing character was 8-year old Tess Logan, an orphan who had been rescued by Buckhart. Robert Harland, later of Target: The Corruptors! starred in seven episodes as Deputy Billy Lordan. Wayne Rogers, who went on to star in another Four Star western, Stagecoach West, and later, M*A*S*H, also played deputy Lordan in several episodes.
