참여 작품

검찰 측 증인
Judge
남편 레너드를 사랑하는 부인 크리스틴은 살인죄로 구속되자 검사측 증인이 되어 남편 레너드의 범죄를 증언한다. 그 때 정체불명의 여인이 나타나법정에 크리스틴 필적의 편지를 공개해 크리스틴은 위증죄로 걸리게 되고 남편은 석방된다. 하지만 이것은 남편을 구하기 위해 크리스틴이 꾸민 계략이다. 그렇지만 석방된 남편은 애인 다이애너와 달아나 버린다. 세계적인 추리소설가 애거서 크리스티의 <검찰 측 증인>을 각색하여, 인간의 추잡한 욕망을 지능적이고 긴장감 넘치는 법정 스릴러로 밀도 있게 그려낸 걸작이다. 배우들의 탄탄한 연기력이 돋보이지만, 단연 1930~40년대 섹스 심벌로 유명했던 마를렌 디트리히의 악녀 연기가 압권이다.
Williamsburg: The Story of a Patriot
George Wythe
Williamsburg: the Story of a Patriot tells the story of Virginia's role in American Independence (up to the point of voting to propose independence at the Second Continental Congress), from the point of view of John Fry (played by a young Jack Lord), a fictional Virginia planter elected to the House of Burgesses.
Mayerling
Prater Waiter
Mayerling is the name of a notorious Austrian village linked to a romantic tragedy. At a royal hunting lodge there, in 1889, Crown Prince Rudolf--desperate over his father's command to put away his teenage mistress, the Baroness Marie Vetsera--shot her to death and killed himself. The misfortune may indeed have been a murder-suicide, but perhaps it was a political assassination, or even the result of a lunatic family vendetta: scholarship is still catching up with the facts.
