I actually watched the 1982 TV pilot for Modesty Blaise (directed by Reza Badigi) twice because the first time I watched it, my focus was fading in and out and I was certain I must have missed something.
The Revision Redux: Modesty Blaise
The Revision Redux: St. Trinian’s
It’s fascinating how many times the cartoons of Ronald Searle’s St. Trinian’s have been adapted on film given there really aren’t that many of the cartoons themselves.
The Revision Redux: Brenda Starr
Other than the 1945 film serial, Brenda Starr has been adapted two more times to date, once as TV movie in 1976 and once as theatrical film that was produced in 1986 but wasn’t released until 1989 in Europe and 1992 in the U.S.
The Revision Redux: Blondie
I did not watch all of them. I watched maybe … 5? I admittedly lost track. There may have been another I don’t remember.
The Batter’s Eye: Reggie
It’s now October and so it feels appropriate to wrap up the baseball season with a documentary about a player known as Mr. October.
