环球影业一度持有漫画《飞侠哥顿》的影视改编权,却放任其失效。后来前环球高管爱德华·格鲁斯金(Edward Gruskin)与马蒂·福斯(Matty Fox)和漫画出版商金氏特稿社英语King Features Syndicate达成协议,制作电视剧的前26集。[1]该剧的制作人由格鲁斯金和文策尔·吕德克(Wenzel Lüdecke)担任[2],编剧组包含格鲁斯金、布鲁斯·盖勒厄尔·马卡姆(Earl Markham),而导演则有小华莱士·沃斯利(Wallace Worsley, Jr.)与冈瑟·冯·弗里奇英语Gunther von Fritsch[2]

该剧于1953年5月开拍,以西柏林[3]施潘道的一间废弃啤酒店作为主要拍摄地点[4]。制作团队当中只有主演们和导演沃斯利会说英语,给制作带来了麻烦。沃斯利回忆道:

(剧中)不管我们探索到哪个星系去,每个人说话都带着德国口音。雇用不会英语的德国演员,下场就是要拍大量的特写镜头。我人会站在摄影机后面,抓好演员的样子,念出他或她的台词;然后演员会复诵一遍,模仿我的发音和腔调。[5]

该剧每集分配到15,000美元的预算[1],且一集要在3天内拍完。拍完前26集后,沃斯利以出现薪资纠纷为由退出剧组。最后的13集改地至法国马赛制作,在冯·弗里奇的执导下进行[4]。该剧属于西德、法国和美国合拍的电视剧,由Intercontinental Television FilmsTelediffusion合力制作[6]

该剧在美国大部分地区以广播联卖形式播出,在东岸则由杜蒙特电视网英语DuMont Television Network播出[7]

Critical response and themes

[编辑]

Variety noted that the series was from a technical standpoint "up to the demands of the script and the average viewer probably won't notice the differences in quality between this and home-grown produce".[39] Flash Gordon was immediately popular in the United States and continued to run in syndication into the early 1960s.[40]

Modern critical reaction to the series has been light but largely negative. The production values are frequently derided, with the series described as "bargain-basement".[41] The televised series suffered in comparison to the earlier film serials with the television incarnation labeled "vastly inferior," lacking "good concepts and scripts" and "most of all, [lacking] Buster Crabbe, who was Flash Gordon".[42] One positive comment notes Champlin's portrayal of Dale Arden, who was transformed from the typical damsel in distress英语damsel in distress of the serials into a trained scientist and a "quick thinker who often saved [Flash and Zarkov] from perishing".[43]

Film theorist Wheeler Winston Dixon英语Wheeler Winston Dixon, far from decrying the series for its production values, finds that "the copious [use of] stock footage and the numerous exterior sequences shot in the ruins of the bombed-out metropolis give Flash Gordon a distinctly ravaged look".[44] He writes that its international origins give the series "an interesting new cultural dimension, even a perceptible air of a split cultural identity".[4] Dixon quotes German cultural historian Mark Baker英语Mark Baker (author), who writes of a particular scene from the episode The Brain Machine as emblematic of this cultural split. The scene uses stock footage of a June 17, 1953 demonstration by East Berlin workers against the East German government. Soviet tanks opened fire on both demonstrators and bystanders, thus confirming East Germany's status as a Soviet puppet state in the minds of West Germans. American viewers, Baker speculates, were probably unaware of the iconic power in West Germany of the images of fleeing East Berlinners, which were used to illustrate a panic on Neptune.[45]

Dixon, noting the similarities between the ideals espoused by "space operas" like Flash Gordon, Captain Video英语Captain Video and His Video Rangers and Rocky Jones, Space Ranger英语Rocky Jones, Space Ranger and American Cold War values, argues that such series were designed to instill those values into their young viewers.[46] Flash Gordon, he writes, along with its fellow space operas, "have a common, unifying theme: peace in the universe can be achieved only by dangerous efforts and the unilateral dominance of the Western powers."[40] This echoes the earlier critique of Soviet writer G. Avarin, who in the Soviet film journal Art of the Cinema had accused Gordon and other space-faring characters of being "the vanguard of a new and greater 'American imperialism'".[47] The "ravaged look" of the series, Dixon writes, "underscores the real-world stage on which the action of the space operas played".[1]

Preservation status

[编辑]

Physical copies of two episodes, "Escape into Time" (October 8, 1954) and "The Witch of Neptune" (March 4, 1955), are held in the J. Fred MacDonald英语J. Fred MacDonald collection at the Library of Congress. A total of fourteen episodes are currently available in the public domain, both on various DVD releases[48] and on websites such as the Internet Archive:[49] Episodes 1, 5, 6, 8, 10, 17, 19, 20, 21, 22, 24, 25, 36, and 39.
