Storyline:The chain-gang prison film (e.g.,I Am a Fugitive From a Chain Gang (1932)) has a long history in American films, and this one also provided entertaining performances, especially with Paul Newman in one of his best roles as masochistic Luke, after playing similar anti-heroes inThe Hustler (1961)andHud (1963).Once he was inside the plane, Mason reminded him about the valuable cargo: "Trust me, boss, even one of those boxes and we are set for life...just an even dozen."Meanwhile, Elaine has become impatient for being held up and delayed after repeatedly signaling with a sexy whistle (Here Comes the Bride) for Mortimer.Other Clarke writings are potential film installments:2061: odyssey threeand3001: final odyssey.Plot SynopsisThe film's opening overture, Ligeti'sAtmospheres, plays behind a black screen - signifying, in a gestaltish way, a pre-creation era, or the mysterious unknown time of the universe's birth.
