I remember something like this on a Sat. Nite Live sketch. One of the network
News shows (60 Minutes?) had a regular weekly feature called Point Counterpoint
where a man (?) and a woman (Shanna Alexander) would take opposite sides of 
issues and argue in a less than polite manner.  On SNL, Jane Curtin and Bill
Murrary would imitate their discussions with the above quote usually used as
Bill's leadoff remark.

How is the book "In the Spirit of Crazy Horse"?  I see it just

I can't remember who won in '86, but the '90 award went to Dreamquest Images
for "Total Recall", and the '89 award for "The Abyss" was split between 
Dreamquest, ILM and others.  (ILM only did the pseudopod -- DQ did all of the 
martian terrain, ships, holo-effects, etc.)

A good guess for the '86 award would be Boss Film. (Ghostbusters, Poltergeist)

   I'd appreciate input on this question: why would Utah go skydiving with 
Bodhi and his gang KNOWING they were the bank robbers and that they know that
he is an FBI agent??

   This is one thing I can't figure. Utah knows Bodhi and his pals are the ex-
presidents because they showed up at the bank as he guessed. Bodhi and his gang
obviously know that Utah is an FBI agent because he chased them! 

   So why go up in an airplane with 'em??

  One of the NOVA segments that got me laughing was the way they
tried to use the computer simulations to show that Kennedy and
Connoly could have been shot from the same location, despite the
different angle of the wounds. By the time the two trajectories lined
up, both the Kennedy and Connolly figures were so far away from their
photographed positions as to invalidate the exercise. But what was the
most interesting aspect is that prior to the moving of the figures,
one of the trajecory lines did indeed go back up to the TSBD, but the other
went streight to the 2nd floor of the Dallas Textile building, near
the fire escape where some witnesses claimed there was a gunman (and where
an unidentified figure is seen pointing an object at the motorcade in the
James Altgens photo).

  TBS ran the "Four Days In November" documentary this week, and in
hindsight, some of the comments and pronouncements made in the narration
seem rather contrived. Of course, it's easy to say that, now that so many
Warren Commision conclusions have been discredited. But what was, for me,
an interesting exercise was to turn the narration OFF, and just watch
the newsreel footage. The voice over kept saying TSBD, over and over, but the
film made it obvious that most of the crowd were looking at the Grassy Knoll;
were, in fact, running up it to find the shooter.

Hi,

I recently asked about the music to Double Life of Veronique, and
although I've not been able to find the music in the US I did get a
little information about it.

The music is written by the Polish composer Z. Preisner and it was
originally published in France by Sideral.  Oddly, the best part of
the music is credited to man called Van den Budenmayer who really
never has existed.  Every note is actually by this Preisner guy...

The local (competent) stores have nothing in their catalogue either
by Preisner or for the soundtrack of the movie, so no luck there.

I also wondered if the lead actress did her own singing in the movie;
she did not.

Thanks to the respondents,

I forget the other wording, but there was a date inscribed on the gun -
sometime in the 1700s if I recall correctly. The point being, these

I'm not even certain that three hours is enough.  Assuming that Lee is
using the "Autobiography" as his primary source, I'd say that a twelve-
hour miniseries (a la "Roots," "Shaka Zulu" or "Shogun") would be more
the ticket.  There's a *lot* of material on Malcolm's life, and the 
critical parts alone (read: his conversion to orthodox Islam) could take
up the better part of a feature film...

No such luck!

With the way things are going, it looks like we'll have three HDTV
standards, one US, one Japanese, and (at least) one european.

These will be analog HDTV standards with a lot of kludges to get them
to work together with exising standards.

They will be analog even though the technology is *almost* here for
implementing a fully digital HDTV standard.

The Swedish PTT [*] is promoting a technology drive for a digital HDTV
standard that will let a fully digital full color HDTV picture (don't
remember the resolution, probably about the same as the analog HDTV
standards) with a 72Hz *true* frame rate and digital stereo hi-fi
sound be transmitted with an 8MHz bandwidth signal (which will let it
use a european TV broadcasting channel slot).

This system is not even a consideration for the commitees defining the
future HDTV standards.
