The Making of Capricorn One

Director Peter Hyams: "I grew up with parents who believed if it was in newspapers, it was true. I was part of the generation that believed if it was on television, it was true. I remember while working at CBS one day, looking at the monitor and thinking, 'Wait a minute! Everybody is looking at the simulation. Suppose you did a really good simulation?' The NASA moon program was a story with only one camera. Normally, all big stories have tons and tons of cameras for thorough coverage. Not so with the moon shots. It all had to be done from the studio. That raised questions in my mind about how the story could be presented. The whole Watergate backlash kicked in. I once said that I owe my career to H.R. Haldemann."

Seconded.
Motion carried.

This was one of those films from childhood that I remembered lots about the film and who was in it but not the title. It was years before I discovered it again and found out what it was called. No interweb back in those days to do a quick check.

TSCC & Dollhouse, C1 in commercials. But TSCC seemed slow so C1 got some extra time.

Then Nitro Circus by local boy gone psycho. 42 Guiness World Records, including 45-foot FRONT flip by motorcycle (world's first, which broke his back). 5 ruptured urethras.

My show would be on in 30 minutes, but I got banned for free speech. So now I'm running for CTV Board of Knoxville (a "judge"), while I sue the CTV Board.
