The NBC mini-series version Of The Martian Chronicles
Spender:
Actually, I never heard him say anything bad against Rock Hudson...

But be realistic.
Ray is a profound poet.
Period!
How do you translate poetry into a visual for the masses? Maybe two, maybe three generations from now ...they may have the capabilities.... but that may be stretching it...
Two or three generations from now will probably destroy civilization as we know it, and the world as we know along with it......You can't have a new generation coming up absorbing the junk of the previous generation...and think nothing is going to happen except progress. Come on....At no time, in no history of man, in no data in any history book or archives on any wall in any cave... has man arrived at such a incredible place in his history.....something totally ���BIG��� is going to happen.....(Make those letters really BIG!!!)
The greatest 'Art' and the 'Greatest War' are about to collide........
