Early in the days of television, the teleplay was made popular with independent one and two hour segments on shows named after the sponsor, such as “The U.S. Steel Hour”. These were early showcases of the excellent talents of young writers such as Rod Serling. Because you didn’t have to leave your living room to see a fine drama, they had a huge negative impact on the film industry and led to such innovations as making both the color film and the widescreen film common, since these were two things you couldn’t get from television. Up to now many of these early teleplays have been shown only in the public domain if at all, because they only existed on kinescope, and then only for the purpose of rebroadcasting to different time zones. The concept of the rerun and syndication had not occurred to producers at the time these were made - with the exception of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. New digital techniques have allowed these early kinescopes to be transferred and viewed with better clarity than ever before, and this new package by Criterion boasts some fine dramas from the 1950’s, many of which went on to be made into acclaimed motion pictures.
