“JEROME BIXBY’S THE MAN FROM EARTH” (Directed by Richard Schenkman. 2007, Starz Home Entertainment)
Longtime James Bond fans may recognize the name Richard Schenkman, the director of this marvelous, thought-provoking independent science fiction drama. During the 1980s, Schenkman was the president of the James Bond 007 Fan Club (based in the
Schenkman’s latest film was written by the late, legendary science fiction writer Jerome Bixby (who wrote episodes for Star Trek and The Twilight Zone, among others). This posthumous production was spearheaded by Bixby’s son, Emerson. The story concerns a small group of friends who have come to say goodbye to John Oldman (portrayed by CSI: Miami’s David Lee Smith), who is moving house for mysterious reasons. In a moment of possible recklessness—or is it premeditated?—Oldman reveals to his friends that he is thousands of years old. In fact, he says he was a Cro-Magnon man and has somehow never aged or died. He has simply re-invented himself decade after decade, century after century, eon after eon—to fit in with progressing societies. At first, his friends think Oldman (get it?—“Oldman”) is pulling their legs, but as the day turns into night, Oldman presents startling and convincing evidence of his claim.
The script is more like a stage play than a film—in fact, The Man from Earth would probably make an excellent stage play—and there’s a lot of talking, no special effects, and no action (except for a short struggle between a couple of characters)—but the film is nonetheless engrossing and suspenseful.
