All this talk of violent toons and children reminds me of an excellent, 
definitive, PBS television program I stumbled over while channel surfing 
last month.  It's "On Television: Teach the Children" produced by WQED-TV.  

It covers all the bases: how kids watch way too much television, how 
cartoon violence is bad for the kiddies, how W.B. cartoons were originally 
intended for adults, how "boy" show content differs from "girl" show 
content, how saturday morning became a cartoon wasteland, how toy 
merchandising is mucking up their little minds and much-much more.  Many 
good mini-interviews: the founder of CTW and Mr. "Television Wasteland," 
reps. from u.s. (regan/bush) gov'ment, Cap't Kangaroo, even Jim Henson's in 
there!  Check with your local PBS channel to see if they're gonna repeat 
it.  [Or you can have your local Nonprint Librarian buy it for you from

Does anyone know what the Coen Bros. are up to ?

I heard that they might be filming a project they wrote along with
their pal Sam Raimi called "The Hudsucker Proxy"

Any idea who else will be involved ? I hope they work with Roger Deakins

Date: 30 Sep 92 15:20:20 CDT

This is a question about how scriptwriters & directors get us to
forget about a seemingly obvious possibility so they can surprise
us with it.  _Prince of Tides_ offers a good example.

Tom had alongside his twin sister Savannah a brother (older?)--in
sessions with Susan Lowenstein he referred to him as "courageous."  At
crucial moments when the alcoholic father was especially violent this
boy would burst onto the scene with a double-barreled shotgun.  (Who
played this boy?  Roger Ebert didn't include him in his listing of the
cast for some reason...)

So all through the family flashbacks we're aware of this kid saving
the day with his shotgun.  Yet in the rape scene we (I at least) sort
of *forgot* about him, and bingo, there he is with his weapon to kill
two out of three of the excons (the mother got the other one, right?).

How do they do it?  Is it because he was in so few scenes that we
tended to forget about him?  It must have been intentional because his
entry would have been much less effective if the audience had been
expecting it.

     Blockbuster is one of the most inane business I patronize.  I must have
6 or 7 cards for different stores that I go to.  Their policy is "NO X RATED
MOVIES".  This has been expanded to include "NO NC-17 MOVIES".  They carry
the unrated versions of Angel Heart, 9 1/2 Weeks, Evil Dead II, and many
others.  They also do not carry certain movies that are controversial, like
The Last Temptation of Christ, but that might be due to the fact that this
is the deep south.  Blockbuster is the perfect place to rent the latest all
American middle class whitebread movies.

Well, for starters he's directed Dune, The Elephant Man, and  
The Grandmother, a short student film about a seed that grows into a 
little old woman. Hmmm, too much LDS in the sixties I think...

     I've heard that the original Green Lantern was going to be named
     "Alan Ladd" instead of Alan Scott.  The writers of the comic had
     the idea of creating an Aladdin-like character, with a magic ring
     and all, and the name "Alan Ladd" could be taken from the name
     "Aladdin."  But then the writers went to the movies and saw that
     there already was a blond star named Alan Ladd in existence - and
     so he became Alan Scott.

     Or so the story goes.

Somewhat disappointing end when they pour 1000 gallons of liquid nitrogen
over the "thing" which turns into an iceberg that explodes.

Great scene of the woman lying in bed when an invisible ghost squeezes
her tits!

The name of this film? Dunno...

The first time I ever saw him was on German TV in about 1982, playing the lead in a production of Kleist's _Das Kaethchen von Heilbronn_.  He had just as 
little Dutch accent when speaking German as he has when speaking English....
And has anyone mentioned his part in _Nighthawks_ (a decent thriller despite
the presence of Mr. Diction himself, Sylvester Stallone)?  Or _The Osterman
Weekend_?  Those were at least halfway serious....Oh yeah, and didn't he play
Albert Speer in a TV movie called _Inside the Third Reich_?  Derek Jacobi 
played Hitler in that one, if memory serves.

Speaking of Dutch films and actors, can anyone tell me more about the director
Dick Maas, who gave the world _The Lift_ and _Amsterdamned_ (I am not making
this up!)?  Not super films by any means, but I'm still interested to know
what else he's done.  Wouldn't mind hearing a bit more about Huub Stapel, who 
starred in both of the above.  Not exactly the next Paul Scofield or anything,
but MOST pleasant to look upon.

Not having your superior perceptive powers, I do not know.  While this
could easily be the case (and it would be nice if it were so), there
has been a sufficient number of cases over the years where people have
indeed proposed references from DADOES as answers to discussions on
BR.  Therefore I feel it advisable to put in a qualifier whenever I

Perhaps you're thinking of Cliff Robertson, a leading man of roughly
the same vintage, who apparently blewthe whistle on David Begelman (?),
a Hollywood executive who was ultimately found to have been involved
in some fraudulent financial doings (pardon the vagueness, but it's been
about 10 years). Robertson claims he was unable to get work for several
years after that -- his point being, I supppose, that there's more 
larceny aplenty in the biz and he was being shown what happens to
"squealers".

So the best you can do is get hold of the Vangelis Themes album, which is a 
sort of Best Of Vangelis, which has the End Theme, Love Theme and Memories
Of Green taken direct from the movie. The album came out in 1988 and up until
that time the soundtrack had never been previously released, and as far as I
know, probably never will, which is a damn shame, cos I love it too and I
also bought the NAO version. Naff is not the word I should use.

How about "Complex World"? A most excellent movie, actually made more 
excellent for me because I met the director/co-producer and he gave me a
copy of the film's soundtrack.

It was an attempt to make a pseudo-documentary of the last hurrah of the
Providence, RI bar named the "Heartbreak Hotel", starring one of the 
funniest actors I've ever seen, Stanley Matis.

Actually, thinking of it more, I tend to like ANY movie where I meet the
director while watching the movie. This happened at the 16th annual 
Science Fiction Marathon, where I watched "Re-Animator" with the director,
Stuart Gordon, next to me. Although to tell the truth I did get a little
ill. (It was the unrated version, and I'm no horror buff). I somehow liked
the movie anyway, simply because the director was next to me cheering the
good parts. :)
