Steven Spielberg: Amazing Stories, Season #1. "The Mission"
Some of the highlights from this season include “The Mission,” which is set during World War II with an American bomber on its 23rd and last mission. Along for the ride is the crew’s good luck charm – their belly gunner (Casey Siemaszko) who is also an amateur cartoonist. However, during their mission, the plane takes a heavy hit that traps the young man in his compartment. With the landing gears destroyed, it looks like the trapped gunner is doomed until a fantastical moment (thanks to divine, albeit hokey, inspiration) intervenes.
Aside from anticipating the similarly themed Memphis Belle (1990) film, it is a masterfully crafted episode as one would expect from someone of Spielberg’s skill. What is so interesting to watch are young actors Kiefer Sutherland and Kevin Costner as crew members of the plane. They are both excellent but it is Siemaszko who is absolutely heartbreaking as the doomed gunner. This is one of the show’s signature episodes and the one that most people remember from the series.

Πάρα πολύ καλό.
Bertrand Tavernier: In The Electric Mist
Και μόνο που η ταινία είναι γυρισμένη στους βάλτους της Λουιζιάνα μετά τον τυφώνα 'Κατρίνα', θα μου έφτανε.
Αλλά ο Tavernier είναι απ τις μεγάλες μου αδυναμίες.
το ίδιο κι ο ινδιάνος, οπαδός των San Antonio Spurs.
τον είχα σταμπάρει από "Τα μάτια της Λόρα Μάρς".
Δεν θα πώ κουβέντα για το soundtrack.
