Police Story

USA

Telefilm

One of the more realistic police series ever owes its success in designing Joseph Wambaugh, a policeman in Los Angeles author of many novels of gender (among other things, new centurions). The serial won a pair of Emmy Awards in 1976, tells true stories of plausible or what can happen every day in the life on the road of the police: the relationships with families, informants, criminals, colleagues. In every episode is out a story without a cast or a fixed interpreter.
Particular attention, rather than the scene of action, is given to the psychological profiles of the protagonists, displayed even in their weaknesses and pine. Production there KALLIS Stanley, David Gerber, Christopher Morgan, Liam O'Brien and Carl Pingitore. Production in the cast include the presence of police officer Gene Roddenberry, creator already Star Trek (1966).
Among the directors of the series stands out the director's chair for John Badham, then director of The Saturday Night Fever (1977). Jerry Goldsmith and Richard Markowitz sign the soundtrack, the first author is also the theme music.

*The week of November 15, 1973, for Jerry Lee Lewis was one of the worst of his life. On November 2, 1954, Jane Mitchum gave birth to Jerry Lee Lewis' son, Jerry Lee Lewis Jr., and on November 13, 1973 [same week that this episode of 'Police Story' aired], his beloved son, and drummer in his current touring band, at the age of 19 [two days before his 20th birthday, while making his way back to the family ranch, Nesbit, Ms.], died in the jeep his father had given him as a present.




Strade della California è una serie televisiva statunitense di genere poliziesco, trasmessa dalla
NBC dal 1973 al 1978.


Il telefilm, di taglio decisamente realista, narrava storie quotidiane e verosimili della vita di poliziotti: dai rapporti con le famiglie e con i colleghi e gli informatori, alla caccia ai criminali. Ogni puntata era autoconclusiva e senza interpreti di ruolo o personaggi principali: particolare, questo, caratteristico ed inusuale nelle serie televisive, che di norma puntano sul cast fisso e al rapporto di fedeltà personaggio-spettatore.


Uno dei motivi del successo della serie risiede nell'ideazione dell'autore Joseph Wambaugh, vero poliziotto che firmò diversi romanzi (I nuovi centurioni e I chierichetti, ad esempio, entrambi portati sullo schermo) e diede pertanto alla serie (che si avvale di alcune regie di buon mestiere e alla musica di Jerry Goldsmith e Richard Markowitz) un'impronta veritiera che conquistò il pubblico statunitense.


Una delle serie poliziesche più realistiche di sempre deve il suo successo all’ideatore Joseph Wambaugh, un poliziotto di Los Angeles autore di molti romanzi di genere (tra gli altri, I nuovi centurioni).
Il serial premiato con una coppia di Emmy Awards nel 1976 racconta storie vere o verosimili di quello che può accadere ogni giorno nella vita on the road dei poliziotti: i rapporti con le famiglie, gli informatori, i delinquenti, i colleghi. In ogni puntata viene esaurita una storia, senza un cast o un interprete fissi. Particolare attenzione, più che alle scene d’azione, viene riservata ai profili psicologici dei protagonisti, mostrati anche nelle loro fasi di debolezza e struggimento.
Alla produzione si susseguono Stanley Kallis, David Gerber, Christopher Morgan, Liam O’Brien e Carl Pingitore. Nel cast produttivo si segnala la presenza dell’ex poliziotto Gene Roddenberry, già ideatore di Star Trek (1966). Tra i registi della serie spicca la macchina da presa di John Badham, in seguito alla regia de La febbre del sabato sera (1977). Jerry Goldsmith e Richard Markowitz firmano la colonna sonora; il primo è pure autore del tema musicale.

Warning! ELVIS Uses 'FUCK' Word: 'Ode To A Robin' [Reads Orig. Poem: November, 1973]

Elvis Presley




Warning! Elvis uses the Fuck-word!

"As I awoke this Morning, when all sweet things are born, A robin perched upon my windowsill to greet the coming morn...He sang his song so sweetly, and paused for a moment's lull. I gently raised the window, and crushed his fucking skull."
-- Elvis 'Ode To A Robin'
(01:22)
November, 1973


Home recordings by Sam Thompson, member of Elvis' entourage and brother of Linda Thompson, Elvis' girlfriend, 1972 to 1976.

5 Elvis tracks recorded direct to tape recorder
at Sam Thompson's home, November, 1973. after Elvis
was released from Hospital.

Elvis Presley's Bird Murder Poem

Like a mirror image of Elvis Presley's life, this poem written by the King of Rock 'n' Roll starts with promise and then ends in sudden, unforeseen tragedy.

The handwritten poem -- which was part of a massive Elvis auction-- is called, "Ode to a Robin," and was sometimes recited by Elvis on stage, and at one point used as the answering machine message at his home.

Presley's poem could be yours for -- an estimated $4- &5,000 --

TMZ
2006




Linda Thompson was born May 23, 1950 in Memphis, Tennessee. Linda won several beauty pageants, including the 1972 Miss Tennessee USA title. In July of that year she began a relationship with the recently separated Elvis Presley and immediately moved in with him at Graceland for roughly three and a half years.

LARRY KING: Do you remember Elvis' poem, 'Ode To A Robin' that he told at your house on Old Hickory in Memphis in 1974?

LINDA THOMPSON: RCA tried to buy that from me and I said no. I'd love to hear it. My children were asking about it just the other day and I was looking for my tape. I have it on a little cassette tape somewhere.
(laughs).

That was his favorite poem.

Interview with

Linda Thompson

In 1981, Linda Thompson married former Olympic Games Gold Medalist, Bruce Jenner with whom she had two children. Bruce divorced Linda in 1983 and she appeared in a few motion pictures and made a number of guest appearances on different television series.

In 1991 she married composer David Foster. With her new husband's help, she began writing lyrics for some of his compositions, notably the song 'No Explanation' for the 1990 film, Pretty Woman. In 1992 they were nominated for a Grammy Award and an Academy Award for Best Song for their composition of the song 'I Have Nothing' sung by Whitney Houston in the 1992 motion picture, The Bodyguard.
