Just another morning above the clouds.

The lost footage. A few decades back, a hard-headed studio executive sought to turn the story of Detective Jack Crimson into a major network television show. Detective Jack is the story of the only honest cop in the 1960s LAPD. With a square jaw and an unavailable heart, he is determined to fight for justice (if he can get out of his own way). Hard-drinking and fast-loving, he likes his vodka on the rocks and enjoys falling in love with women who always seem to be out to get him killed. Underwritten by an orange juice company, the show was given the green light. In a pink-washed noir world, the production was to be set in Los Angeles. However, it was soon beleaguered by chaos on set, internal squabbling over casting, and quickly scuttled. The only remaining footage from this thwarted effort, Detective Jack: The Studio Reels, are presented for the first and only time alongside audio from a potential soundtrack that was never released in record stores.

The cost of the feast, Dreams of youth on the platter, Served to the old of today.
