Film7.5KorkuGerilimFilmde Bodega sahiline saldıran farklı türlerden kuşların yol açtığı dehşet konu ediliyor. San Francisco’da bir evcil hayvan dükkanında başlayan ve bir aşk üçgeniyle ilerleyen film, bir doğumgünü esnasında kuşların saldırıya geçmesiyle devam eder. Yönetmen Alfred Hitchcock Kuzey Kalifoniya’da tatil yaparken gazetede gördüğü bir haberden oldukça etkilenir. Haberde kıyı evlerine doğru saldırıya geçen deniz kuşlarından bahsedilmektedir. Bu olay ile Daphne du Maurier’in kısa bir öyküsü yönetmenin kafasında birleşince, Kuşlar filminin temelleri de atılmış olur.
Film7.3DramRichard Llewelyn’in aynı adlı romanından uyarlanan yapıt, bir çok eleştirmene göre John Ford’un en başarılı filmi. Yüzyılın başında, Galler bölgesinde bir madenci ailesinin yaşantısı, ailenin en küçük bireyinin gözlemleriyle anlatılıyor. II. Dünya Savaşı’nın başlaması, filmin olayların geçtiği yerde çekilmesine engel olmuştu. Fakat yapımcı Darryl Zanuck, sırf bu film için California’da bir madenci kasabası inşa ettirmeyi başardı. Yapıt, En İyi Film, En İyi Yönetmen başta olmak üzere beş dalda Oscar kazanmıştı.

Dizi6.0Bilim Kurgu ve FantastikSuçLights Out was an extremely popular American old-time radio program, an early example of a network series devoted mostly to horror and the supernatural, predating Suspense and Inner Sanctum. Versions of Lights Out aired on different networks, at various times, from January 1934 to the summer of 1947 and the series eventually made the transition to television. In 1946, NBC Television brought Lights Out to TV in a series of four specials, broadcast live and produced by Fred Coe, who also contributed three of the scripts. NBC asked Cooper to write the script for the premiere, "First Person Singular", which is told entirely from the point of view of an unseen murderer who kills his obnoxious wife and winds up being executed. Variety gave this first episode a rave review ("undoubtedly one of the best dramatic shows yet seen on a television screen"), but Lights Out did not become a regular NBC-TV series until 1949.
