Announces: THE PRESIDIO Composed and Conducted by BRUCE BROUGHTON Intrada Special Collection Volume ISC 298 Bruce Broughton’s music for 1988 Paramount film The Presidio is pulse-pounding and exciting, balancing orchestra and synthesizers in equal measure throughout the movie’s chase sequences, climaxing with the standout nine-minute action cue. Much of the composer’s music sets out to enhance the movie’s suspense and underscore the investigation, utilizing a central four-note motif that Broughton adapts to varying dramatic effect, characterized by a wide downward leap on the second note. It was that simple and from this tiny anchor he could take the score inward toward suspense or outward toward action—and, most importantly, develop the motif into a fully realized theme finally heard at the close of the score For Broughton, The Presidio marked the first of three collaborations with director Peter Hyams, with Narrow Margin and Stay Tuned following. This premiere CD featuring the complete score and alternates was mastered from the original session elements, initially recorded on digital 32-track tape at 20th Century Fox Studios by engineer Armin Steiner, then subsequently converted directly into two-track stereo mixes on both digital and analog tape. The resulting audio is crisp, clean and vibrant. The film stars Sean Connery and Mark Harmon in which their characters team to investigate a murder on the San Francisco military base.

Historicizing the Liminal Superhero

Degree awarded December 2020 ii © 2020 Zachary Roman iii DISSERTATION ABSTRACT Zachary Roman Doctor of Philosophy School of Journalism and Communication December 2020 Title: Box Office Back Issues: Historicizing the Liminal Superhero Films, 1989–2008 Although the superhero film became a dominant force in Hollywood early in the 21st century, the formation of the superhero genre can be attributed to a relatively small temporal window beginning in 1989 and ending in 2008. This dissertation argues that a specific group of superhero films that I call the liminal superhero films (LSF) collectively served as the industrial body that organized and created a fully formed superhero genre. The LSF codified the superhero genre, but that was only possible due to several industrial elements at play before they arrived. An increasing industrial appetite for blockbusters coming out of the 1970s, the rise of proprietary intellectual property after the corporate conglomeration that occurred at the end of the 20th century, and finally, the ability of the LSF to mitigate risk (both real and perceived) all led to this cinematic confluence.

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.
