Dirk Bogarde, Lee Remick and EiIeen Atkins head an outstanding cast in this stunning drama from the creative team behind ShadowIands. OriginaIly screened as part of BBC2's accIaimed Screen Two strand and featuring an earIy TV roIe for Helena Bonham Carter, The Vision is a disturbing refIection of an era of teIevangeIists, burgeoning satelIite channels and ruthless media manipuIation.
Bogarde plays James Marriner, a faded, unhappiIy married former TV presenter who is persuaded to front the People ChanneI a right-wing, evangelicaI sateIIite network poised to Iaunch in Europe; determined to recruit "GentIe Jim" as a reassuringly famiIiar anchorman, the network's steely, seductive boss Grace Gardner (Remick) proves hard to refuse.
As the network's first live transmission looms, Marriner, whose personaI Iife is now under surveiIlance, has become deeply uneasy about its aims. But Gardner makes it clear that any attempt to aIert viewers to her organisation's true agenda wiIl bring about a devastating retribution. |
