50th Anniversary of "The War of the
Worlds"
By Donna
Jeffries & Larry Leverett of "Hollywood
Beat"
American Cinemathique and Paramount Pictures are
proudly presenting the 50th Anniversary of the
science-fiction film classic "The War of the
Worlds". The film's original stars, Gene Barry and
Ann Robinson will be presiding over the special
Anniversary Gala and screening to take place at
Hollywood's Egyptian Theatre on August 7, 2003.
-----The film, which
was produced by legendary special effects master
George Pal, was based on the 1898 H.G. Wells
classic novel of the same title. The original radio
broadcast of the story about a Martian invasion of
Earth was acted out on the air by Orson Welles in
1938. Welles was so convincing in his depiction of
the story that thousands of terrified people across
the country literally believed that Martians had
indeed landed.
----- "The War of the
Worlds", which won an Oscar for its phenomenal
special effects, is considered to be one of the
greatest science-fiction masterpieces of all time.
Many great contemporary directors cite it as being
one of their favorite films, including Steven
Spielberg. Variety magazine has reported that Tom
Cruise will be producing and will possibly star in
a remake of "The War of the Worlds". According to
Sherry Lansing, chair of Paramount Pictures Motion
Picture Group, "'The War of the Worlds' is a
timeless literary treasure and one of our most
exciting properties. Since Paramount has enjoyed
such tremendous success partnering with
Cruise/Wagner, there is clearly no better team to
entrust this to". Tom Cruise and his business
partner/co-producer Paula Wagner worked with
Paramount on "Mission: Impossible" and "Vanilla
Sky".
----- The 50th
Anniversary of "The War of the Worlds" is indeed
already proving to be generating much excitement.
The 25th Anniversary "re-premiere" was also an
exciting success. The grand event took place at
Hollywood's "Holly Theatre" and reunited leading
lady Ann Robinson and producer George Pal for the
first time since they had worked together on the
film in the early fifties. Co-star Les Tremayne was
also on hand. Larry Leverett helped coordinate the
special gala, which was complete with klieg lights,
glamorous stars, and full radio and TV coverage.
Larry is currently busy helping Ann Robinson and
Richard Eastman to coordinate this 50th Anniversary
Gala as well.
