Originally released to a memorable and impressed public as far back as good old 1978, Ventnor Library has acquired of DVD release that is still one of the strongest arguments that people should question just about everything that television broadcasts.
‘Capricorn One’ could well be eventually linked towards the greatest era of Hollywood for some, known on earth as ‘the seventies’.
Truly breath-taking cinema
When the era of Hollywood for some, known on earth as ‘the seventies’, when the subject matter of films such as ‘Dirty Harry’, or even ‘Star Wars’ seemed to seriously shine with intrigue and brilliant scriptwriting.
Part of America’s talent for truly breath-taking cinema during the seventies of the last century, could well be its direction towards good subject matter and its battle towards truth.
Brave and also risky
‘Capricorn One’ can still ruffle more feathers psychologically as a film than anything Hollywood studios could possibly bring about during the new millennium. It is somewhat brave and also risky piece of DVD cinema which has some truly chilling moments to boot.
Rarely has a film launched such a conspiracy onto any audience’s consciousness in much the same way that films such as ‘Easy Rider’. ‘The Shining’, or even ‘Close Encounters’ did.
Counter argument on moon-landings
‘Capricorn One’ as an outstanding piece of work may well be a movie of enjoyable entertainment to some, but through its almost simplistic naivety there is a lurking menace, which causes the work to reveal that the seventies of Hollywood were indeed impressive times.
Whether you believe that the moon-landings were not hoaxed, watching ‘Capricorn One’ manages to volunteer an impressive counter-argument, which suggests that if any country could pull off such a hoax, then it would be all too easy and the reasons why are pretty much suggested within the first ten minutes directly.
Much like the brilliant work of a film that is ‘Network’, ‘Capricorn One’ manages to educate and entertain and merely reminds an audience to question everything television broadcasts.
