	Silent Running - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Silent Running is a science fiction movie made in 1971, directed by Douglas Trumbull and starring Bruce Dern as the protagonist Freeman Lowell.
		The science and technology depicted in Silent Running are not always plausible, but Trumbull's special effects are on par with those he created for 2001: A Space Odyssey, and the melancholy message is powerful.
		Trumbull had been involved with creating effects for Jupiter for 2001 and these were recycled for Saturn in Silent Running.

	silent running (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)

		Silent Running was filmed in February and March of 1971, on a 32 day schedule.
		Silent Running sneaks in as a classic, and it would certainly also be a cult film.

		Part of that five-picture package was the science-fiction odyssey “Silent Running,” an unfortunate financial failure that is justly considered one of the best science fiction films of the 1970s.
		The Making of "Silent Running" is the featurette made shortly after the film's release, and is interesting if nothing more than to see the process of using bilaterals for the drones, as well as 70s fashion styles.

	Silent Running (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Silent Running is a classic science fiction adventure that has a strong, if not serious message to it.
		A sad story with a surprisingly downbeat ending and a strong ecological message, "Silent Running" is a visual treat with outstanding special effects (designed and produced by Trumbull) and a very realistically-depicted "Valley Forge" spaceship.
		Freeman's name reflects his nonconformist philosophy, which runs counter to the prevailing recklessness of his three ill-fated crewmates, who are eager to jettison their precious payload and return to the bleakness of Earth.

	DVD Review: Silent Running
		"Silent Running" is a film that, while impressive technically for its time and occasionally entertaining, takes itself too seriously to really be as successful as it could have been.
		The Making Of "Silent Running": Likely presented previously on the laserdisc edition of the film, this is a nearly 50-minute documentary that was produced in 1972.
		Final Thoughts: "Silent Running" certainly has a fan base who will be very pleased with this impressive special edition from Universal, which offers good audio/video and a lot of supplements for a low price.

		Silent Running appears in an aspect ratio of approximately 1.85:1 on this single-sided, dual-layered DVD; the image has been enhanced for 16X9 televisions.
		As for the monaural soundtrack of Silent Running, it seemed fairly average for the era.

		All of this is told with simplicity and a quiet ecological concern, and it makes "Silent Running" a movie out of the ordinary -- especially if you like science fiction.
		"Silent Running," which has deep space effects every bit the equal of those in "2001," also introduces him as an intelligent, if not sensational, director.
		"Silent running" isn't, in the last analysis, a very profound movie, nor does it try to be.

	Is It Possible To Build A Silent PC?
		A C3 is not as powerful as a Pentium III or a Power PC chip running at the same clock speed, so a C3 running at 633MHz is hardly likely to be equivalent to the current Pentium 4 running at 3GHz.
		Some silent system builders have advocated isolating the disk from the computer chassis to get around this vibration noise, using rubber mounts or suspension systems, but this creates another problem.
		One possible compromise would be to have the silent system near the user running from non-volatile memory, while the noisy storage is done elsewhere on a network, outside the control room.

	Silent Running review (1972) Bruce Dern - Qwipster's Movie Reviews (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Silent Running foresees a bleak distant future for Earth, where the only forestation left resides on huge domes affixed to off-world spaceships, providing an optimal environment for a self-sustaining biosphere.
		Silent Running is a classic film in the sci-fi genre, although it's one of those films that has little appeal to anyone that typically avoids such fare.
		There is an environmentalist message that might hold some appeal for those in the movement, although I may upset Joan Baez fans somewhat by stating that the two songs she contributes to the soundtrack are nails-across-the-chalkboard excruciating.

		There are only four characters in Silent Running, and the screenwriters (Michael Cimino and Steven Bochco) forgot to write three of them.
		These three are the most sympathetic characters in the piece, if only because the viewer sympathizes with the dwarves inside the robot-suits, who had to listen to Dern's earnest crapola and never got to scream at him to just shut up, already.
		Silent Running is rated G. Perhaps its producers hoped it would indoctrinate impressionable young children into the joys of tree-huggery.
