Release Review of Pan Am ": Lighter than air, but not bubble-headed?


Release Review of Pan Am ": Lighter than air, but not bubble-headed?


David Caruso needs of its brand sunglasses to look at the bright sky and look at CSI: New Miami Sunday night competition: elegant passenger aircraft from Pan Am, is a new series that is, to use a word that were used during the time when the show develops, kicky - fun, with the promise of something more.
The West Wing executive producer and director Thomas Schlamme directed Pan Am a dream vision of what was to be a flight attendant about the 1960, and its soft visual narrative did much to conceal the awkward dialogue and cheesy plot twists, like a married passenger boarding a flight attendant that contains the gamine (Karine Vanasse to pert) which has been having an affair with. Kate (Kelli Garner) is helping the CIA with a bit of espionage, and the Bay of Pigs disaster drags on providing a little heavy for a series seriously who really wants to be lighter than air.

The most attractive co-star is Christina Ricci, playing hostess to a rebel with a knowledge of Marxism (you can practically see his neck under his uniform black beatnik stew, and big dark eyes suggest Ricci evenings while hitting bongos recites the poetry of protest). In general, Pan Am juggling romance, espionage, and comedy in the subplots that take time to resolve. At this point, the show does not seem to know exactly what you want to be, and is experimenting with the tone and see what works and what does not. That's the kind of attitude that, if the tinkering is done well, could lead to an interesting series.

Pan Am - along with the Playboy Club, which has already landed with a resounding failure in qualifying - suggest that the deep envy but almost inexplicable that television networks have to Mad Men, Matthew Weiner. The period drama has a lingering charm for network programmers, although it has not really worked for them, ratings wise, for a long time (rhythm Swingtown, Homefront, American Dreams) and if Pan Am were to get only size assessments Mad Men ABC, soon to become a death spiral in the cancellation.
The show could certainly do without a dialogue that tries to articulate what we want to believe it - at that time, the hostess led career as one of the pilots of the cornea, said without a hint of credibility, "an new breed of woman ... you just had an impulse to take flight. "Puh-Leese. What is the sale of Pan Am is a fantasy, or a reminder of envy of what life used to be like up, up and away - yes, children, actually used to be spacious seating and friendly service. (But then again, who wore a suit and tie or dress to fly, not sweat pants and shirts with Starbucks stains on them.) I'm intrigued enough to look again to see how the show shakes, what proportion of Spy vs romantic history will settle on. Right?
