Announces: CAPRICORN ONE Composed and Conducted By Announces: CAPRICORN ONE Composed and Conducted by JERRY GOLDSMITH Intrada MAF 7142 Jerry Goldsmith's score for the 1978 film Capricorn One unknowingly created a template for the next quarter-century of action scores. The cat-and-mouse chase and escape sequences afforded Goldsmith the opportunity to compose some of the most unique suspense and exciting action set-pieces of his lengthy career, not to mention the appearance of a subtly melancholy romantic theme that speaks to love tragically lost. Ten years ago, Intrada premiered the original film recordings on a limited edition CD that quickly sold out. The justifiably famous LP released at the time of the movie's debut was a re-recording made by Goldsmith, containing edited highlights, arranged and re- orchestrated by Goldsmith. Performances on the Intrada are crisper and cues have significant complex detail, including much of the electronics, which were deleted from the LP arrangement. Rather than simply re-use the master from the 2005 release, Intrada has rebuilt, reassembled and remastered the music to improve the sound, including an additional alternate not previously released. The conspiracy-thriller tells the story of a voyage to Mars. But did the astronauts ever reach their destination? In Capricorn One, a misguided attempt to save a failing space program results in a faked landing on Mars. They almost get away with it, too, until the real unmanned space capsule burns up during re-entry and the three "astronauts" find themselves facing certain execution. Directed by Peter Hyams, the film stars Elliot Gould, James Brolin, Sam Waterston, Brenda Vaccaro, Hal Holbrook, Karen Black, O.J. Simpson, and Telly Savalas. Intrada MAF 7142 Released July 2015 .

  • Capricorn One – Il Film
    Capricorn One – Il Film Siamo a Capo Kennedy, ad Houston, nel Texas: dopo 15 anni di lavoro, di calcoli e un grande dispendio di mezzi tecnici ed economici, sta per prendere il via la missione spaziale Capricorn One, diretta sul pianeta Marte. L’equipaggio è composto dal comandante di missione Charles Brubaker (l’attore James Brolin) e dai due ufficiali in seconda, Peter Willis (l’attore Sam Waterston) e John Walker (l’attore e atleta O. J. Simpson). Alla fase di lancio sono radunate le autorità, anche se il disinteresse della politica per l’epica impresa è sottolineato dal fatto che il Presidente americano non è presente ed è sostituito dal suo vice. Il responsabile di tutta la missione, il dottor James Kelloway (l’attore Hal Holbrook), che insegue da anni questo sogno, è frustrato e preoccupato. Infatti egli e pochi altri fedelissimi dell’ente spaziale sono a conoscenza del fatto che un difetto di fabbricazione di un componente essenziale della navetta può mettere a rischio l’intera missione e addirittura la vita dei tre astronauti. Ma cosa fare adesso che gli occhi e le telecamere del mondo intero sono puntati sull’imminente partenza? L’idea del dottor James Kelloway è quella di inscenare un falso decollo, un falso viaggio e un falso atterraggio su Marte, trasportando i tre astronauti in una località segreta dalla quale trasmettere i collegamenti radio fasulli e il finto ammartaggio. Sembra che la grande cospirazione sia perfetta e che vada tutto liscio, ma un incidente nella fase di rientro della capsula “vuota” sulla Terra e lo zelante ed intuitivo giornalista Robert Caulfield (l’ottimo attore Elliott Gould) porteranno, dopo lunghe peripezie, la verità a galla.

  • Moon Landing Conspiracy Theories 1 Moon Landing Conspiracy Theories
    Moon landing conspiracy theories 1 Moon landing conspiracy theories Different Moon landing conspiracy theories claim that some or all elements of the Apollo Project and the associated Moon landings were falsifications staged by NASA and members of other organizations. Since the conclusion of the Apollo program, a number of related accounts espousing a belief that the landings were faked in some fashion have been advanced by various groups and individuals. Some of the more notable of these various claims include allegations that the Apollo astronauts did not set foot on the Moon; instead NASA and others intentionally deceived the public into believing the landings did occur by manufacturing, destroying, or tampering with evidence, including photos, telemetry tapes, transmissions, and rock samples. Such claims are common to most of the conspiracy theories. There is abundant third-party evidence for Apollo Moon landings, and commentators have published detailed rebuttals to the hoax claims.[1] Various polls have shown that 6% to 28% of the people surveyed in Astronauts Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong in the NASA's training various locations do not think the Moon landing mockup of the Moon and lander module. Hoax proponents say that happened. the film of the missions was made using similar sets to this training mockup. Origins and history The first book dedicated to the subject, Bill Kaysing's self-published We Never Went to the Moon: America's Thirty Billion Dollar Swindle, was released in 1974, two years after the Apollo Moon flights had ceased. Folklorist Linda Degh suggests that writer-director Peter Hyams's 1978 film Capricorn One, which depicts a hoaxed journey to Mars in a spacecraft that looks identical to the Apollo craft, may have given a boost to the hoax theory's popularity in the post-Vietnam War era.

  • Television Programming
    Chapter 10: Television 1 Television I: Television Programming 10.1 Felix the Cat, 1929. 10.2 First human step on the moon. 10.3 The toppling of Saddam. “This is television. That’s all it is. It’s nothing to do with people. It’s the ratings. For fifty years, we’ve told ‘em what to eat, what to drink, what to wear. For Christ’s sake Ben, don’t you understand? Americans love television. They wean their kids on it. Listen. They love game shows. They love wrestling. They love sports, violence. So what do we do? We give ‘em what they want.” Actor Richard Dawson, as a game show host, in The Running Man (1987, US, Paul Michael Glaser) Television has changed the perceptual base of Western culture and has profoundly influenced the development of other mass media popular arts. It has also changed the avant- garde. The structure and icon function of television programming will be discussed in this chapter. The next chapter will discuss television commercials. Chapter 10: Television 2 The main reason for the cultural and artistic impact of television is easy to identify: for the first time in Western history, the primary source of culture-building images is located within the home itself. Television has produced images ranging from the Felix the Cat doll (10.1) used in NBC’s experimental broadcasts before World War II to the live shots of an American setting foot on the surface of the moon (10.2) to belated scenes of the invasion of Grenada to images of the 2003 war with Iraq such as the one of a Saddam Hussein statue discussed at the very beginning of this book (10.3).

Productor ejecutivo: Stanley O'Toole. Productor asociado: Charles Orme. Producción: The Ladd Company, Outland Productions para Warner Bros. Guion: Peter Hyams. Fotografía: Stephen Goldblatt. Música: Jerry Goldsmith. Montaje: Stuart Baird. Diseño de producción: Philip Harrison. Efectos especiales : Introvision International. Intérpretes: Sean Connery (Marshall William T. O'Niel), Peter Boyle (Mark Sheppard), Frances Sternhagen (Dr. Lazarus), James Sikking (sargento Montone), Kika Markham (Carol O'Niel), Clarke Peters (Ballard), Steven Berkoff (Sagan), John Ratzenberger (Tarlow), Nicholas Barnes, Manning Redwood, Pat Starr, Hal Galili, Angus MacInnes, Stuart Milligan, Eugene Lipinski, Norman Chancer... Nacionalidad y año: Reino Unido 1981. Duración y datos técnicos: 112 min. color 2.20:1. Es el futuro. El marshal O’Niel es destinado como agente de la ley en una colonia dedicada a la extracción de titanio en Io, una de las lunas de Júpiter. En tiempos, el director Peter Hyams fue una gran promesa del cine norteamericano. Después de tres películas poco conocidas saltó a la fama con Capricornio Uno (Capricorn One, 1977), que especulaba con la leyenda urbana de que el viaje a la Luna fue un montaje, pero trasladándolo a Marte; Después dirigió un hermoso melodrama bélico con sabor antiguo, La calle del adiós (Hanover Street, 1981). Entre otras películas a destacar figuran, 2010: Odisea dos (2010, 1984), una nada desdeñable secuela de 2001, y Testigo accidental (Narrow Margin, 1990), un trepidante thriller; sin embargo, el resto de su filmografía se ha ido perdiendo paulatinamente, alcanzando quizás su punto más bajo con la chocarrera adaptación El mosquetero (The Musketeer, 2001), según el clásico de Alexandre Dumas padre.
