TONIGHT on ME-TV @ 12:35am EST, one of the GREAT episodes of THE TWILIGHT ZONE: “THE LONELY” (written by Rod Serling, directed by Jack Smight, originally broadcast November 13, 1959) One of the great American actors of the 20th Century, Jack Warden, is “The Lonely,” a convict serving his life sentence in solitary on a remote prison planet. In a gesture of compassion by the authorities, he’s given a female robotic companion named “Alicia,” played sensitively by English actress Jean Marsh (later of the early ‘70s British TV hit Upstairs, Downstairs). Marsh’s Alicia is wonderfully “alive” in her inherently innocent, naive gentleness, totally opposite from the clichéd, more overtly “robotic” automatons seen previously in sci-fi films and television series of the 1950’s, which were exclusively male (even though one of the genre’s most famous robotic icons is the mechanical Maria from Fritz Lang’s 1927 classic Metropolis, the model for George Lucas’ C-3PO) Warden, at first repulsed by the forced companionship of what he sees as no more than a lifeless machine, soon gets lost in Alicia’s lifelikeness when she exhibits actual (programmed) emotions, and thus falls in love with her (as we, the audience, does too). But their happiness was not to last, thanks to one of the cruelest twists of any of Serling’s famed Twilight Zone episodes. In the end, Warden, though returning to earth with his sentence pardoned, is still left alone, bitterly questioning his own—human—identity, as Serling had foreshadowed at the top of the episode: “What is there left that I can believe in? The desert and the wind? The silence? Or myself?” arlenschumer.com/twilight-zone #rodserling #twilightzone #thetwilightzone #jackwarden #jeanmarsh #thelonely #arlenschumer #tv #television #tvhistory #televisionhistory @dgareps @nyadventureclub @richardsyrettstrangeplanet https://www.instagram.com/p/ConVGcavE4Y/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
