	INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN
		Universal Pictures and Imagine Entertainment have assigned screenwriters Thomas Lennon and Robert Ben Garant to 're-imagine' "THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN" as a comedy, with Keenen Ivory Wayans to direct and Eddie Murphy to star...
		Shrinking to the size of a small boy, the man meets a (midget) woman 'Clarice' at a carnival, becomes involved with her and seeks refuge in her home.
		Finally becoming small enough to squeeze through the spaces of a screen door, the man escapes into the outside world, only to have the shrinking continue until he eventually becomes a sub-atomic particle...

	The Incredible Shrinking Man
		Clifford Stine was special effects director for Incredible Shrinking Man. Stine was a respected cinematographer, having shot films as diverse as Stanley Kubrick's Spartacus and Operation Petticoat.
		Although there is some wonderful process projection work in Incredible Shrinking Man,(the cat looking into the dollhouse, for example), most of the effects were achieved simply by creating over-sized props, and part of the film's charm is its low-budget quality.
		Incredible Shrinking Man marked the third confluence of various strands of talent: director Jack Arnold was one of the pioneers of the resurgence of 3-D movies in the 1950s, particularly with his landmark film, Creature From the Black Lagoon.

	The Incredible Shrinking Man - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Incredible Shrinking Man is a 1957 science fiction film directed by Jack Arnold and adapted for the screen by Richard Matheson from his novel The Shrinking Man.
		Scott Carey (Grant Williams) is contaminated by a radioactive cloud and pesticide, and slowly begins shrinking.
		Currently there are plans for a remake of The Incredible Shrinking Man as a comedy which will revolve around a magician (slated to be Eddie Murphy) who suddenly starts to dwindle and frantically searches for a way to revert back to his previous size.

		Luckily, The Incredible Shrinking Man plays the gimmick seriously, never for a moment forgetting that if you really did shrink down to Inch High Private Eye status, it wouldn't just be riding around on flying ants and sneaking in the girls' locker room.
		They lead a typical 1950s existence with the milk man dropping off a bottle for Lou, with Lou making breakfast and getting dressed up in heels and a dress so that she can prepare for a big day doing stuff like cleaning up after breakfast and planning dinner.
		So you can see that while in today's world an Incredible Shrinking Man would be protected, back in the good old days when women still put on the pearls to vacuum the living room, he was screwed.

	Scifilm -- Musings, THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN (1957)
		A man, after being exposed to insecticide and passing through a cloud of radiation, discovers that he is shrinking.
		It seems to be various types of movies at once, as his shrinking affects different aspects of his life at different times; the early part of the film is a drama, the last half a thriller with religious and cosmic overtones.
		Though there are some moments that are a little clumsy (his ring falls off almost immediately after the line starting "as long as you wear that ring..."), once he is attacked by the cat, the movie never lets up.

		Equally amazing in my mind after a viewing of "The Incredible Shrinking Man", is how this film gives us a view of the "normal", everyday world suddenly becoming a dangerous and potentially lethal environment where everyday things like the family pet or a spider in the basement take on life threatening personas.
		Meanwhile the media have latched onto the newsworthy story of the "incredible shrinking man" and Scott and Louise become prisoners in their own home as curious busybodies begin making their life a misery.
		But, on the internal side of things, the human spirit refuses to be crushed, and the individual man, continually adjusting himself to his circumstances, triumphs and becomes the pioneer for future humanity...

		It's incredible that director Jack Arnold ("Creature from the Black Lagoon"/"Tarantula") takes the so-so novel by Richard Matheson and makes it into an absorbing and intelligent pulp gem, one of the best in its genre, with the help of co-writers Richard Alan Simmons and Mr.
		Scott, feeling like a freak, has withdrawn from the world but attends a carnival where he meets a midget named Clarice (April Kent), who teaches him to cope with his handicap and that he's capable of living a full life; he then happily resumes writing his memoir.

		Man alone against the universe is always a powerful topic, and writer Richard Matheson, who adapted his own novel for the screen, does an admirable job.

		But his shrinking continues and, emerging through the interstices of a common screen onto the lawn of his house, he confronts his final significance in the face of an infinite universe.
		Today, The Incredible Shrinking Man still stands as a model of what the economical, ambitious, understated and intelligent SF film can be.
		He's something of a misogynist in the face of his wife's devotion, and the fact that his new role is a disempowered one (woman as the stereotypical "helpless little thing") and that his makeshift basement outfit looks like a skirt, all point toward a kind of revenge of the universal feminine force.

		Matheson's The Shrinking Man (the original title by the way--the Incredible part of the novel from what I recall was added after the movie was made)begins simply enough; Scott Carey is out on a boat with his brother when the ship is enveloped by a fine mist that gently stings his skin.
		He is often mistaken for a child (by bullying teenagers and in one scene, a drunken pedophile) and begins falling into the `little man's complex,' raging at seemingly insignifigant things and growing increasingly more neurotic as a result of his inability to be taken seriously.
		His manhood is challenged as he becomes too miniscule to relate physically to his wife (in the pit of his self-loathing he contemplates the rape of a sixteen year old girl), and in a final display of his ineffectiveness, his young daughter treats him like a doll.

	The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957)
		Medical tests show that radiation from the cloud is reacting with an insecticide on his skin and is causing him to progressively shrink.
		One can read it as an early feminist fable (before such ideas even really entered the mainstream intellectual discourse) - how man's esteem and abuse of power is related to his ability (or inability) to physically dominate his environment.
		The film was however remade as The Incredible Shrinking Woman (1981), an explicitly comedic remake with Lily Tomlin, which is not unenjoyable in its own right.

		Price’s examination of the “Son of Man” of the Gospels, Jesus of Nazareth, as described in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, produces the same phenomenon.
		The idea seems to have been born in the Galilean community, where earlier layers of Q present a Son of Man who is not associated with any past or present person, let alone a preacher of the wisdom sayings of Q1.
		When a Jesus, later in the document’s evolution, has the ‘coming Son of Man’ sayings placed in his mouth and applied to himself, he still sounds like he is speaking of someone else.
