Binary/Pursuit – The Crichton Cast

After a bit of an unplanned hiatus, the Crichton Cast crew is back! [https://foureyedradio.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/s894038183586334660_p382_i2_w1280jpeg_phixr-200x300.jpg] This week, we’re on the case to investigate the John Lange penned thriller of a novel Binary! We also compare and contrast with it’s film adaptation, and Michael Crichton directorial debut, Pursuit. Listen as we discuss the differences and similarities between the novel written under Crichton’s “Med School Years” pseudonym, and the film for which Crichton almost wrote the screenplay, and did direct. We talk about the villain/hero interaction, the weapon, the plot and plan, the action, the drama and of course the minor goofs we think we’ve found. This was a fun filled book/movie and we hope that our commentary is as filled with excitement. So get your antidote syringe strapped to your arm, sit back and enjoy the wild ride that is Binary and Pursuit! ---------------------------------------- [https://foureyedradio.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/maxresdefault_phixr-e1511882050976.jpg] ---------------------------------------- [https://foureyedradio.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/FaceBook_1.jpg] If you are reading this you must be a fan of Michael Crichton just as we are.

Congo – The Crichton Cast

Welcome back again to the Crichton Cast! This week, we’re taking a look at a novel and film combo with a 15 year separation between them; Congo![https://foureyedradio.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/congo.jpg] In this ill fated trek into the depth of the African Congo Rainforest in search of rare diamonds, the team finds much more than they bargained for. A new race of previously unknown gorilla, that seems hell bent on destroying anyone who dares cross over into their home. We go in-depth to talk about the story, the characters, the action and more from both the 1995 film, and it’s 1980 book inspiration. We discuss the acting, the casting and possibly most importantly, the characterization of the cast of characters used in the film, compared to those in the novel.
