„We all dream of being a child again, even the worst of us. Perhaps the worst most of all.“
Andy Sidaris revolutionierte
in den 1960er Jahren das amerikanische Sportfernsehen
mit seiner Sendung „NFL Monday Night Football“ - wofür
er sogar mit einem Emmy ausgezeichnet wurde. Ebenfalls
die Sportshow „ABC’s Wide World of Sports“ gehörte für
jeden US-Sportfan zu einem Muss und hielt sich
über 25 Jahre auf dem besten Sendeplatz. In den
folgenden Jahren arbeitete er vor und hinter der Kamera
für unterschiedliche Produktionen - von „M*A*.S*H*“
über „Kojak“ bis „Gemini Man“. In den 1990er Jahre
wurde er vor allem durch die Produktion der berühmt-berüchtigten
„Bullets, Bombs and Babes“-Reihe (u.a. „Day
of the Warrior“), auch als Triple-B-Reihe bezeichnet,
bekannt.
Andy
und Arlene Sidaris
Insgesamt wurde Andy
Sidaris mit sieben Emmys ausgezeichnet.
Leider verstarb Andy im März 2007 an Krebs - freundlicherweise hat uns seine Ehefrau Arlene, mit der er mehrere Film produzierte, sich bereit erklärt, einige Zeilen über Andy, seinen Lieblingsfilm und sein Leben zu schreiben.
Wir möchten uns hier
rechtherzlich bei Arlene Sidaris bedanken und wünschen
ihr und ihrer Familie alles erdenklich Gute.
Wer gerne mehr über Andys Arbeit erfahren möchte, dem empfehlen wir die üblichen Verdächtigen:
Andy & I were partners in
the „Bullets, Bombs & Babes“ series and married for 40 years
so, knowing him as well as I did, I would like to answer on his
behalf.
As a little boy, Andy would
visit his uncle in Kansas city. His uncle owned movie theatres in
the black populated areas of the city. During Andy’s visits, his
uncle would take him around to the theatres. While his uncle was
making his collections & taking care of business, Andy would
sit in the projection room, much like the lilttle boy in „Cinema
Paradiso“. The movies that were played were early black action films,
not seen in wide release. The films made a deep impression on Andy.
As an adult, Andy loved the Bond movies but his all-time favorite
film was Sam Peckinpah’s „The Wild Bunch“.
You may not know that Andy’s
early career was dominated by his directorial accomplishments with
ABC Sports. The family joke was: The reason Andy went into the movie
business was because if he won another Emmy, our house would sink(!!).
As a director of sporting events, Andy was the first to take the
camera off the field. His college degree in journalism inspired
him to cover the events so that the audience experienced the drama
both on and off the field. He stirred things up by featuring the
cheerleaders, as well as beautiful women in the stands. The influence
of Hugh Hefner’s Playboy Magazine and Andy's love and admiration
of women is apparent in his films. During an interview he described
his love of film directing like this: „When I direct a football
game, John Elway is the star. When I write and direct one of my
films, I'm the star.“
