4月22日 Richard Kiel to Appear at 007 Weekend!FOR YOUR EYES ONLY. Join Bay Area Film Events on Memorial Day Weekend for a 007 Weekend to Thrill! Celebrate 2-007 with James Bond at the Castro Theatre in San Francisco. Bay Area Film Events brings classic Bond films back to the big screen where these movies were meant to be seen. The Hollywood blockbusters will be around all summer, but there’s only one chance to catch some of the most explosive action ever to hit the screen! Three days of excitement as only Bond and BAFE can provide. Featuring our biggest guest ever, 7’ 2” tall Richard Kiel, “Jaws” from THE SPY WHO LOVED ME and MOONRAKER. Richard Kiel is courtesy of Antiquities of California at Pier 39. A Bay Area Film Events show is always more than just showing movies and this one is no exception. In addition to movies and our special guest, attendees will have a chance to win James Bond collectibles through door prizes and a special MI5 raffle. The Stunt People (see pictures of their Ultraman stunt show on this blog site) return to the Castro stage to thrill the audience with a one of a kind 007 stunt show and to celebrate the Caribbean locals of DR. NO, we present live calypso music by Apocalypso Now. And of course, the best of Bond, including DR. NO, FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE, GOLDFINGER, THUNDERBALL, ON HER MAJESTY’S SECRET SERVICE and THE SPY WHO LOVED ME plus rare shorts and trailers. Richard Kiel: Towering 7' 2" tall actor who has cornered the market on playing giants, intimidating henchman, bayou swamp monsters and steel toothed villains! Kiel worked in numerous jobs including as a night club bouncer and a cemetery plot salesman, before breaking into film & TV in several minor roles in the late 1950s / early 1960s. Noted amongst these was the alien "Kanamit" in the classic "The Twilight Zone" (1959) episode "To Serve Man", and terrorizing Arch Hall Jr. while clad in a loincloth in the prehistoric caveman meets virile teenage drama EEGAH! (1962). Kiel turned up in two episodes of the classic horror TV series KOLCHAK: THE NIGHT STALKER (1974). However, his biggest break came in 1977 when he was cast as the unstoppable, steel toothed henchman "Jaws" in the finest Roger Moore film of the Bond series THE SPY WHO LOVED ME (1977). Such was Kiel's popularity with movie audiences, that his character was brought back for the next Bond outing MOONRAKER (1979). Over the next few years, Kiel appeared in comedy or fantasy type films taking advantage of his physical stature and presence. Kiel then decided to try his hand behind the camera and co-wrote and produced, plus took the lead role, in the well received family THE GIANT OF THUNDER MOUNTAIN (1991). Kiel reprised his "Jaws" character in the Matthew Broderick film INSPECTOR GADGET (1999). Recently, Kiel penned his informative autobiography entitled "Making it BIG in the movies". The Stunt People: The Stunt People, a group of talented martial artists and filmmakers, return to a BAFE show for the first time since they’re popular Ultraman stunt show in 2005. The Stunt People have since set out to make a film that would entertain people with martial arts and comedy. Spearheaded by the team leader, Eric Jacobus, CONTOUR began production in December of 2004 and was completed in June 2006. The film was shot digitally for a budget of under $5,000. Apocalypso Now: Apocalypso Now is a local calypso band that plays regularly at Oakland’s Conga Lounge. Tropical steel drums, exotic guitar and Latin percussion set the mood for the events they play. The motto of the band is to play locally and think globally. 引用通告此日志的引用通告 URL 是： http://bayareafilmevents.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!4ADBE94CD6F51338!384.trak 引用此项的网络日志
