NEW MAVERICK (PILOT 1) (DVD MOVIE)

Features interviews, commentaries and unforgettable moments from some of the most visionary movies ever created such as American Graffiti, the Star Wars film series, the Indiana Jones film series, The Godfather trilogy, Toy Story, Lost in Translation and many more! Includes all-new interviews with those who have worked with Bay Area mavericks: Steven Spielberg, Michael Douglas, Anthony Minghella, Milos Forman and Frank Darabont.

Maverick tells the story of Brett and Bart Maverick. These "fancy pants" gamblers roam from town to town during the era of the great old west looking for a good game; inevitably, making enemies when they won and extricating themselves from rough situations when they lost.

The arsenals of today's hospitals are filled with complex and technologically sophisticated tests and treatments that, only a generation ago, would have been the exclusive province of science fiction. Bionic limbs, lasers used to restore sight to the blind, surgery on fetuses test, which can visualize the genesis of a hallucination in the brain of a schizophrenic patient. How are these things possible? What medical breakthroughs were the stepping-stones that brought us to today's miracles? MAVERICKS, MIRACLES, & MEDICINE shows us how the breakthroughs of modern medicine were forged over 100 years ago.

MAVERICKS, MIRACLES, and MEDICINE brings to life stories of the pioneering geniuses, eccentrics, and free thinkers who moved beyond the conventions of their day at great personal riskoften with tragic resultsto push forward the boundaries of modern medicine. From Werner Forssmann, who was so confident in his theory that doctors could insert a catheter into a human heart for diagnostic purposes that he inserted one into his own heart, while watching on a live X-ray (and was basically thrown out of the profession, only to be awarded the Nobel Prize just before his death many years later), to Anton Von Leewenhoek, a draper and part-time janitor who discovered the existence of protozoa, bacteria, sperm, and blood cells; from Wilhelm Roentgen, who developed the X-ray machine in his basement with a single cathode ray and some cardboard, to Jean-Baptiste Denis, who gave the first-known blood transfusion (with sheeps blood) and was later charged with murder (on manufactured evidence). MAVERICKS, MIRACLES, and MEDICINE is populated with the heretics and visionaries who forever changed medical science.

Cactus Makes Perfect (1942): When Curly's invention - a gold finder - is deemed "incomprehensible and utterly impractical," the Stooges think it means they're sitting on a gold mine, and go west to find one and rake in their fortunes.<p><i>Out West (1947): The Stooges get a leg up on some bad dudes when they head west for a therapeutic vacation to heal the bad win in Shemp's leg. But when they mosey into a saloon, they stumble into the middle of a love triangle between a dirty dealer, a saloon waitress and boyfriend, known as the Arizona Kid.

Vagabond Loafers (1949): Who's the biggest drip: Larry, Shemp or Moe? It's hard to say, but when the Stooges' plumbing company is hired to fix a leak in a mansion, they turn the slippery circumstances to their advantage and foil a pair of art thieves who've stolen a $50,000 painting.

Dopey Dicks (1950): The Stooges almost lose their heads - literally - when they rescue the dame they met while cleaning a private detective's office, who has been kidnapped by a mad professor seeking human brains for translation.

George Best is perhaps the most talented footballer ever to walk the face of the earth. He had the confidence and arrogance to try absolutely anything - he knew he was a genius and he was not afraid to show the world. He revelled in the limelight but as the first of the new superstars, found himself unable to cope with the temptations thrown at his feet. Alcohol, late nights and women: he indulged in them all and as a result walked out of top class professional football in 1972 aged just 26. This is the story of one of the greatest players ever, soccer's first pop superstar.
