Tarantino brings intensity to 'CSI'
By BILL BRIOUX - Toronto Sun
How does a big shot like Quentin Tarantino wind up directing the two-hour season finale of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation?
Simple. He asks.
The Kill Bill auteur kept running into the cast and crew at award shows. Said he was a big fan.
One week last January he happened to be in Vegas when a former criminologist by the name of Larry Mitchell -- a consultant on the series -- bumped into him at a food court and invited him out to the set.
Mitchell had no idea who Tarantino was.
Series lead William Petersen (Gil Grissom) knew the dude. So did creator Anthony Zuiker. When Tarantino mentioned he had a little idea for the show, well, before you could say "royale with cheese," the deal was done.
The result is a chilling, creepy, disturbing, intense, funny, dark, sick, twisted, perfect episode of TV's No. 1 drama. (SPOILER ALERT -- some details from tonight's show follow).
Grave Danger (nice title) begins at a too-quiet crime scene. Suddenly, one of Grissom's team is abducted, sedated and buried alive in a Plexiglas coffin (if you've caught any of the promo clips this week you probably already know who it is. Suffice to say one of the two actors who nearly got fired a year back in a salary dispute earns their paycheque tonight.)
The abductor has evidently seen several Tarantino movies. He leaves classic yet obscure '60s music behind as a clue. He speaks in short, punchy, smart-alecky sentences. He isn't afraid to spill his guts, all over the screen.
He also leaves a computer link that leads to a coffin-cam website transmission of the victim's plight. Grissom and crew stand in horror as they helplessly watch their colleague consumed by fear inside the see-through crypt. There's a time limit before the air cuts out. There's a loaded gun and a tape recorder in the coffin. And, as the computer link keeps telling the forensic cop crew, "YOU CAN ONLY WATCH."
The intensity of the situation was evidently too much for Frank Gorshin. The former Batman villain, who died yesterday at 72, has a juicy cameo about halfway through tonight's finale. (See story below). He's in a Vegas lounge reminiscing with Tony Curtis, barely recognizable under 14 pounds of fake hair.
"I'm telling you, you couldn't beat this town in the '70s," he says in a rare line of dialogue actually in the original script.
Better quips were evidently ad-libbed. "Me, dress up in drag?" Curtis says at one point to Gorshin. "Who do you think you're talking to -- Jack Lemmon?" Gorshin even breaks into one last blast of Jack Nicholson and Ed Sullivan, God rest his riddle-me-this soul.
Other stars from the '70s, including former Bond girl Lois Chiles and black belt action star John Saxon, get face time in short but key roles.
Besides the usual Tarantino time shifting, there are plenty of twists, shocks and gross humour, including a chainsaw gag in the morgue. Scenes shift from sweet tributes to Roy Rogers to splattered doggie entrails. As usual, you'll want to eat at least three hours before diving into this show.
Don't let that put you off. Tarantino has crafted a brilliant study in crime, character and courage. TV at its best. |

Tarantino lends his grave touchto 'CSI' finale
By Sid Smith
Chicago Tribune arts critic
Perhaps inspired by an itch to win back some of the attention heaped nowadays on "Desperate Housewives," "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" ends the season with a real gripper, directed by no less a thrills master than cinema's Quentin Tarantino.
The aptly titled two-hour episode, "Grave Danger," isn't just the case of a celebrity director drafted for a little publicity glitz. Tarantino heaps stylistic contribution after contribution onto the episode, a scary, addictive, ultra-harrowing yarn that at times marries "CSI" with "Fear Factor."
The saga begins typically "CSI" enough. Team member Nick Stokes (George Eads) arrives at a lonely crime scene, where a single police officer is guarding a steaming heap of disemboweled entrails. While the officer is overcome with nausea, distracted as he empties his own stomach, Stokes follows clues a block or so away and is quickly grabbed and kidnapped by a masked assailant.
Faster than you can say "Kill Bill," Stokes slowly awakens from his ether-induced sleep to grasp that the assailant has buried him alive. He's trapped in a tight plastic coffin, which, unknown to him, is equipped with a video camera. The distraught "CSI" team is sent a Web site address allowing them (and us) to watch poor Stokes as he struggles to breath and maintain his sanity. The kidnappers send a note demanding $1 million.
The setup allows the show's sometimes robotic technicians to revel in emotion, displaying frayed tempers, crippling guilt and eruptions of Greek tragedian grief. Team member Warrick Brown (Gary Dourdan), who flipped a coin with Stokes to determine who would get the assignment, gets so distraught he kicks at the floor, upsetting a box of evidence, as big a "CSI" no-no as they come.
Tarantino, a master of postmodern allusions and in-jokes, includes one delicious scene in which Tony Curtis and Frank Gorshin play themselves, hamming it up at a Vegas nightclub. Gorshin suggests Curtis wear a dress, to which, he retorts, "Who do you think I am? Jack Lemmon?" Mimic Gorshin throws in a few imitations, including the prerequisite Ed Sullivan: Pure Tarantino, ever the poet laureate of pop cultural pulp.
More substantively, "Grave Danger" boasts Tarantino's signature with its Gothic, psychological frights. Burial alive is an archetypical image of classic horror, employed in everything from Poe's "The Cask of Amontillado" to the 1988 Dutch movie classic "The Vanishing."
Tarantino, who also devised the story, fashions a slow, encroaching mood of crisis and disaster that all but overwhelms the team, allowing Chicago stage veteran William Petersen, as team leader, a couple of mesmerizing standout scenes. And the director doesn't go easy in making the most of the burial scenario, letting Eads explode and disintegrate with claustrophobic terror, (heavy SPOILER ahead! - zum lesen markieren) ->and that's well before the makeshift coffin is invaded by an army of ravenous red ants. spoiler ende. |

er dreht ja genügend filme, was soll man sich also mit poppeligen 2-stunden-folgen abgeben.
übrigens, CSI ist nicht zu verwechseln mit CSI miami.
hab beides noch nie gesehen, aber bei quentins-folge werd ich wohl ne ausnahme machen.

Finde die Serie ganz nett. Klar, immer die gleiche Masche irgendwie. Wenigstens aber immer wieder mal etwas anderes. Abgesehen davon, sind die Bilder und die Musik gut, was zzgl. der Darsteller eine gute Atmosphaere schaft. Optimale Serie, um sich am Abend vom TV ganz relaxed berieseln zu lassen. Die Folge interessiert mich in jedem Fall. Wird aber ganz sicher noch ein weilchen dauern, bis man sie hierzulande sieht. Auf VOX kommt heute btw wieder eine Folge um 20:15 Uhr und spaeter die Wiederholung.
