Countdown to Looking Glass
Self
A fictional confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union over the Strait of Hormuz, the gateway to the Persian Gulf. The narrative of the film details the events that lead up to the initial exchange of nuclear weapons from the perspective of an on-going news broadcast.
O Xeque Mate
Himself
Philip Kimberly, the former head of the British Secret Service who defected to Russia, is given plastic surgery and sent back to Britain by the KGB to retrieve some vital documents. With the documents in hand, he instead plays off MI6 and the KGB against each other.
Os Eleitos: Onde o Futuro Começa
Himself
O livro de Tom Wolfe que conta a história do programa espacial norte-americano foi escrito como um romance, e o filme tem a mesma qualidade ficcional. Ele cobre desde a quebra da barreira do som por Chuck Yeager até aos astronautas da Mercury 7, mostrando que ninguém tinha a menor ideia de como executar um programa espacial ou como selecionar as pessoas para participarem. Os sete eleitos são Alan Shepard, John Glenn, Gordon Cooper, Gus Grissom, Scott Carpenter, Wally Schirra e Deke Slayton. Emocionante, engraçado, charmoso e eletrizante ao mesmo tempo.
EPCOT Center: The Opening Celebration
Self
Danny Kaye tours EPCOT Center, singing its praises in Future World and the World Showcase. He meets celebrities and park characters like Dreamfinder and Figment, and speaks with some of the people responsible for creating the park.
The Colonel Comes to Japan
Self - Host
It seems highly unlikely that Colonel Sanders ever thought that he would be selling his Kentucky Fried Chicken to the Japanese, but Kentucky Fried Chicken, Japan, Inc. is doing just that, and doing it successfully. The company, headed by an American director and staffed by the Japanese, has raised the business of fast-food retailing to an art. Here West meets East as the Japanese are shown how to prepare the product and the Americans are introduced to the fine art of Japanese business. –cte.uw.edu
