  • LA PLANETE DES SINGES REVISITEE (avant-propos de Charlton Heston)

    Foreword
    Planet of the apes turned out to be one of my most successful films, though it drifted around the studios for a couple of years like a stray dog looking  for a home. Arthur Jacobs owned the property and spent his time peddling it around town, being laughed at by every studio he pitched it to : "Talking monkeys! Rocket ships! You outta your mind? Get out!".
    Arthur, however, was convinced he had a wonderful film, if only someone would make it. I read the book, which didn't impress me very much... but the idea did. Franck Schaffner agreed, we told Arthur we'd like to do it, if he could get the several million it would require to film.

    By this time we had a wonderful Rod Serling screenplay. more importantly, we had Dick Zanuck's interest. He was running Fox at the time. I'll put up fifty thousand to develop the makeups,' he said, "then we show it to the board. If nobody laughs, you've got a go film."
    And so we did. We shot for several months through the summer, and I, half naked most of the time, was sprayed withe firehoses, caught in nets, and stoned (yes, even rubber, rocks hurt).

    Apes was really the first of the Space Operas, all still popular. It's a very fine film, and I'm proud to be in it. It's amazing how many people still write me about it. I'd say that film has the best ending of any movie I've ever seen.  Before word got around, audiences would stand stunned when I stood below the ruins of the Statue of Liberty screaming, "They finally, really did it! You maniacs! You blew it up! God damn you... God damn you all to hell!"

  • CHARLTON HESTON : 99 ans

     

    Photolab-379259315_dominance de bleu.jpg

    En cette journée du 4 octobre nous ne pouvons pas passer sous silence l'anniversaire de notre grand homme.

    Il aurait 99 ans. 

    Cette année j'ai choisi parmi les photos que je transforme avec mon logiciel, quelques-unes pour monter ce petit diaporama.

    La musique est fournie par le site KIZOA sur lequel je monte mes videos.

    Je sais par expérience que tout le monde n'aime pas ces photos que je transforme, mais je le fais dans le respect de Charlton Heston et honnêtement, je pense que c'est plus beau que toutes les horribles caricatures que l'on peut voir sur le NET, c'est laid et irrespectueux.  Alors j'espère que vous aimerez mon petit diaporama.
