回复 :Eric Braeden stars as Dr. Charles Forbin, who has created a supercomputer named Colossus, built solely for the purpose of controlling the nuclear defenses of the Western alliance. It isn't too long after, however, that the Russians announce that they too have built a similar computer for those same purposes on their side--Guardian. And when the two machines begin sharing information at a speed nobody can believe, an attempt is made to disable them.This unfortunately just raises the machines' ire; and in retaliation, they launch their weapons at each other's home nations. The result is a chilling scenario that is potentially becoming all too real these days.COLOSSUS: THE FORBIN PROJECT was not a big hit at the box office for various reasons. One is that its cast wasn't exactly well known. Another reason is that its ending isn't exactly a happy one. Still a third reason is that Universal had trouble trying to promote it in the wake of the huge success of Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY. The latter reason is obvious: Colossus and Guardian, like HAL in the Kubrick movie, become central characters here. The difference here is that while HAL malfunctions due to a programming conflict, Colossus and Guardian remain all too stable, convinced beyond a doubt that they know how to protect Mankind better than Man himself. As the computers point out: "One inevitable rule is that Mankind is his own worst enemy."Joseph Sargent's direction is efficient, and the special effects work of Albert Whitlock still manages to work despite its obvious age. An overlooked gem in the sci-fi genre, this should be given a revival.
回复 :在一个家族传承的塔格特铁路公司,现任总裁为家族长子詹姆斯·塔格特,副总裁是达格妮·塔格特,兄妹俩为挽救公司岌岌可危的营运,想法与方法可说是南辕北辙,一位只是口头囔囔一些没有经过详细评估的墨西哥——圣赛巴斯蒂安支线的投资,却没有提出一丝一毫的规划与执行方案,常常以见不得别人成功的酸葡萄心态看待事情与诋毁他人;另一位是以“我是像一个饿疯了一样,去找任何一个能把事情做好的人!”为挽救塔格特铁路公司,与爱迪·威勒斯孜孜矻矻、焚膏继晷的努力工作,为顺利完成里约诺特的铁路支线,找上里尔登钢铁的汉克·里尔登合作,采用里尔登刚发明的新合金当铁轨,没想到成功营造出里约诺特的铁路支线,却是另一个不幸的开端。幕后制作《阿特拉斯耸耸肩》是上世纪美国著名哲学家、小说家安·兰德的代表巨著,这位俄裔美籍小说家推崇理性,认为人的最高美德便是理性。她不顾传统舆论的偏见,力倡个人主义,认为不能使个人利益得到最大伸张的社会,就不是理想社会。她的客观主义哲学自上世纪50年代起便风靡美国校园,影响了几代美国人,她本人也成为美国青年崇拜的偶像。《阿特拉斯耸耸肩》是她最著名的一本小说,曾在美国社会产生巨大影响。书中宣扬金钱至上的思想,探讨了理性利己主义的道德性。1957年刚刚出版曾遭遇社会恶评,但却异常畅销,在美国的销售量仅次于《圣经》,并影响了当时社会的很多知识分子,甚至成为美国学生必读的课外书籍。
回复 :《十二把椅子》是个极其有趣的讽刺故事。它通过一个贵族出身的小公务员和一个流氓找寻十二把藏有财富的椅子的曲折离奇经历,尖锐地讽刺了许多卑污可笑的现象。
