MICHAEL ANDERSON IN STARLOG

Who  now  remembers   MILLENIUM  ?  


A  late 1980's  entry  in the sci-fi  genre,  it already seemed passed  its sell by date even then.


I must have watched it on video at some point but don't recall too much about  it.


I do recall  the STARBURST  critic referring to the   '  deadening touch   '   of  the late  Michael Anderson.


Whether you agree with that description ,   there's no denying that Anderson had a good innings throughout his movie career.


Perhaps most famous for   THE  DAM  BUSTERS  ,  he also made many fine movies including a


personal favourite of mine ,  THE  QUILLER  MEMORANDUM.


He certainly waxed enthusiastically  about   MILLENIUM   in  this   STARLOG   interview from 1989.


Naturally,  a good chunk is given over to the release of    MILLENIUM   but he also  looks back on his past sci-fi  work.
