#nowwatching #Marooned (1969) grips with astronauts (#GeneHackman, #RichardCrenna, JamesFranciscus) stranded in orbit, oxygen dwindling, as #GregoryPeck races a hurricane for rescue. Stellar cast, Oscar-winning effects, tense finale—pioneering space thriller predating Apollo 13

It was an accident.
10 day fire.
April 25, 1986.
Worst nuclear power plant accident in history.

Thanks. Haven't been watching these #Oscar movies as I've seen most of them recently or not interested.
But I finally saw #The400Blows and then today #Marooned. We are so lucky to have #TCM.

Are Lee Grant and Gene Hackman married in this? He seemed to end up with supporting actress winners like Estelle Parsons in Bonnie & Clyde and Dianne Weist in The Birdcage. #Marooned #TCMParty
The make leads are all gone but all three female leads are stil with us: Lee Grant, Mariette Hartley and Nancy Noback. #Marooned #TCMmParty
Sorry for the poor quality of these scans of actor Gregory Peck and his wife at the Kennedy Space Center in 1969 during the filming of #Marooned

Cut away of the actual Skylab station (left). Note, during launch one of the solar panels was ripped off - along with a protective shield. The actual configuration is on the right.

Unlike the multi-month crew stay in #Marooned, the longest Skylab mission was 84-days. Today, however, most crew stays on the ISS run between 6-8 months, with several members staying on board for nearly a year.

IRL, the three crewed missions to Skylab were launched using the Saturn IB rocket (left). The Saturn V was only used to launch the space station (right).

Won't be able to stick around for #MAROONED but note that:
1. filmed on location during NASA preps for Apollo 11.
2. much of the hardware in the film is based on (what would become in a few years) Skylab.
3. No soundtrack to speak of.
4. Still in theaters during the RL crisis of Apollo 13

FYI, those "beeps" that you hear are called "Quindar tones" ( #Marooned later tonight made exclusive use of background tones and beeps instead of a traditional score). #ForAllMankind

Artists sometimes need company. Conversation can energize the creative mind.

Meet 13 People Who Survived on Deserted Islands, From a Real-Life Robinson Crusoe to a Noblewoman Marooned With Her Lover: Ahead of the release of Sam Raimi's "Send Help," revisit the stories of Alexander… @SmithsonianMag #SurvivalStories #DesertedIslands #RobinsonCrusoe #Marooned #Castaways
PIRATES 'Marooned' This image graphically illustrates the common pirate punishment of 'marooning', or as the pirates ironically described it, "being made Governor of your own island" The Pirates Code of Conduct Most of the pirate ships operating in the Caribbean adopted a series of articles which governed the conduct and behaviour of the crew. To break the pirate articles was a serious offence, pirate crews had to be disciplined in order to survive, sail and navigate a ship. These are the articles of Captain John Phillips and his crew. The Articles on Board the Revenge, 1723. I. Every man shall obey civil command; the Captain shall have one full share and a half in all prizes; the master, carpenter, boatswain and gunner shall have one share and quarter. 2. If any man shall offer to run away, or keep any secret from the company, he shall be marooned, with one bottle of powder, one bottle of water, one small arm and shot. 3. If any man shall steal anything in the company, or game, to the value of a piece of eight, he shall be marooned or shot. 4. If at any time we should meet another marooner (that is pirate), that man that shall sign his articles without the consent of the company, and shall suffer such punishment as the Captain and company shall think fit. 5. That man that shall strike another whilst these articles are in force shall receive Moses' law (that is, 40 stripes lacking one) on the bare back. 6. That man that shall snap his arms, or smoke tobacco in the hold, without a cap to his pipe, or carry a candle lighted without a lanthorn, shall suffer the same punishment as the former article. 7. That man that shall not keep his arms clean, fit for an engagement, or neglect his business, shall be cut off from his share, and suffer such other punishment as the Captain and the company shall think fit. 8. If any man shall lose a joint in time of an engagement, shall have 400 pieces of eight; if a limb, 800. If at any time you meet with a prudent woman, that man that…

No replicator and almost no rations?
"Just a pot noodle. Oh - and I found a tin of dog food on the tool shelf."
"Pretty obvious what gets eaten last. I can't stand pot noodles."

#Marooned on the shore,
He's quietly forgotten,
Ship sails from his sight.

Tombo brushpen and Pilot silver marker on watercolor postcard. A row of mountain ridges in shades of purple, with a deep blue sky behind containing puffy white cumulus clouds and a murky mustard-yellow or gold moon or sun. In the foreground a cartoonish yellow entity raises its hand in greeting.
I do not know why Casper the Friendly Ghost painting-bombed my picture of "Purple Mountains' Majesty," but there it is. He might be #Marooned or the nearest ridge might be #maroon. Have you ever added anything incongruous to your work? #AColorADayPril #ArtYear #MlevelArt
