I love this film since I was a kid. The part when the Andromeda cell starts to multiply always creeps me out. The ambiance, sound design and visual effects gives me chills still!
Me too!!!
Right. They don't make them like this anymore!
Was the crystal multiply scene done with CGI? No, it could not have been! CGI was not yet invented.
This movie has always blown me away! So far ahead of it's time. It stands up real well to this day. ITS A 10 + MASTERPIECE . Love this movie .
Kate Reid was great as Dr. Leavitt in this movie. And probably the most interesting character. She brought a sort of "tough mom-ism" to the role.
I still love the line. "Oh, Dutton. I have a long criminal record...."
Yeah, I didn't even remember her, from 50+ years back, but watching the show now, she reminds me of my grandmother who could have a REAL attitude. 🤣 😍I love how Leavitt is both driven, and feels no need for the normal apologetic attitude at the time, of women asserting their opinions in the company of males.
I read the novel before I saw the movie. The novel was riveting. The movie was very well done.
This is how you make a good movie. Good story. Good dialog/ writing and excellent actors. Something missing from films today.
The thing I notice that is so different from todays' films is that characters can actually make a sentence, then answer without straying from the point. Amazing.
Now if only someone can make a movie where people talk the way people actually do... the only ones I've seen are The thing From Another World, and Alien.
@@stevetheduck1425Both of the films you list are among my favorites. Alien showed a strong woman who was also vulnerable at the same time.
@@peace-yv4qd But in the case of Riley in Alien, she is not vulnerable because she is a woman, she is vulnerable because she is human.
It's not missing from today's films. Your comprehension ability is missing. Films today are actually more complicated than these outdated films.
What are you talking about? Any examples? Maybe I can explain them to you. I used to tutor people like you. Given your poor writing ability and vague, generalized commentary, I think you could use my help.
I *love* Leavitt. Changing the character from male in the book to female in the film was perfect.
Kate Reid was amazing. RIP.
This is acting. By great actors. A film made in 1971 about this germ warfare and it STILL is super creepy... Plus, they interject their science sense of humor into it. That makes it even better... When grave situations are presented, a sense of humor is much needed to wrap one's head around it. Making light of a bad situation by reducing its grave and dangerous abilities.
Happy 50th Anniversary to The Andromeda Strain.
Thats why im here too. Not for long im gunna go watch it again
A female scientist who was smart and not belittled by her peers. This movie was great for many reasons
She's no Mary Sue like you see today. She used wit, sarcasm, and self-deprecating humor to great effect to highlight the absurdities around her while providing worthwhile contributions to the overall effort. She didn't put up with egos, theirs or hers.
Quite uncommon to be seen in those days
She's how I imagined the Bene Gesserit sister, Bellonda to look and sound. Right down to glasses. She was in the last two DUNE novels, Heretics of Dune and Chapterhouse Dune.
Congratulations on a scientific insight
Love that line at the end lol
Congratulate him on his scientific insight. LOL
Crayons help. They always do. Waxy bastards..
I hate that woman. She failed to do her job properly because she didn't want anyone to know that she was epileptic. Hope she lost her job afterwards.
@@williamzinser2378- Her secrecy is a lot more understandable if you remember the time at which this movie is set. People had an almost superstitious dread of epileptics. They were considered dangerous and "crazy." If she had told anyone about it, she WOULD have lost her job. Personally, I loved her.
@@williamzinser2378 are you serious? she was a fantastic character!
One of the best lines ever
A great great movie of it's time. Well scripted well acted. Michael Crichton was a great author. Sad that he passed away😞
I met him about eight months before he died. Told him this one was still my favorite of his. He appreciated that.
Cancer. Still uncured. We waste $3 trillion of Midest wars (and $50 billion in Ukraine) instead of medical research. Can we turn away from destruction to saving lives?
@@scottslotterbeck3796 Billions are being poured into cancer research, cancer is not just 1 disease, and will not have one cure, war is bad but it is often necessary, people that invade your country and blow up your schools and hospitals, don't care about peace or whether you want to find a cure for cancer, they are only interested in power, and your countries resources. , Billions are also wasted on subsidies to oil companies, why not use that money for research instead of making billionaires even more richer? anyway, also cancer is not the only thing that kills people, ignorance does as well, just look at how a certain percentage of the population reacted to covid, what will happen will happen when the next pandemic happens? all the research in the world, cannot protect humanity from stupidity.
@@scottslotterbeck3796 Cures aren't profitable. Only "vaccines" and extended treatments. =9[.]9=
I remember sneaking into the theatre when I was a kid, to see this on the big screen, (back when they had movie houses that would seat 2500 people). I was transfixed and terrified for the character who bravely halted the disaster. I haven't seen the movie since then, but upon viewing these clips, I think it is very well done. They did an amazing job of making me feel like the strain was crawling all over me , just from the music alone!
Yikes
Strongly inspired by the theory of crystal pre-genetic-code of Cairn-Smith, which was getting a lot of attention at that age. Part of my present class on Astrobiology
It's Tiberium!
Not to spoil anything but this playlist leaves out a major point. When asked if there were any no growth scenarios, Dr Leavitt says there were not. However, there were, but she blanked due to the flashing red “no growth” message triggering her epilepsy when she was viewing the results.
The only reason I mention this is to point out that if you only watch these clips you’re missing a lot of the important bits of the film. Yeah this is an old film, but it’s really worth the watch - and the book is worth the read.
I agree. The sequel to the book came out late last fall ( different author). Also well worth the read.
@@cnault3244 Wait....there's a sequel to the book?
@@JnEricsonx Written by a different author, since Crichton is dead. It's called The Andromeda Evolution.
Not as good as the first book ( it's written like the author was writing a book to be made into a movie, so more action oriented) but worth the read.
Yeah, Dr Hall picks up on the possibility she missed something when she has the seizure in front of him.
All these old suits look like top scientists in their fields like it should be.
kate reid is perfect as leavitt. her sarcastic delivery is great!
I loved the acting in this, the revelation, realization, and reaction by the three sells the terror of what Andromeda could have done. Really a great scene.
video effects done by Douglas Trumbull. He and director Robert Wise would re-unite 10 years later in a big way for Star Trek: the Motion Picture
"Great place to grow pot"
"Just a plain ol' crop of barley. It is rather clever though, I suppose."
Awesome novel. Every few years it pulls me back in and I read it as if it’s the first time.
Why is this movie from 1971 just getting clips uploaded now
When did you expect they’d be uploaded? 1971?
you know why -- I for one am delighted because this is a terrific movie
There are many movies, it can take a while.
Also, Movieclips registered in 2006, but the earliest upload they have available (publicly, at least) is from 2010 or 2011. I don't remember _any_ of their uploads from 2006 - 2010, though I'm also not a big movie buff.
Covid-19
And why are they in my recommended😂
This movie is the reason why I graduated with a degree in Microbiology and Chemistry.
I really love this movie, the scientific "everything" in this movie strikes well with me.......................except the last few minutes. This organism just happens to mutate to "harmlessness". Hits me as a very weak ending.
The remake doesn't hold a candle to the original.
The original did it right the first time.
The Apollo astronauts were not "sterilized " until AFTER they were pulled from the ocean.
Great film
Scary part is the Air Force actually did project Scoop!
They had a isolated sample of the Andromeda strain right away and we still don't have one for the bat flu.
The white nose fungus? Little brown bats?
What always strikes me as odd, is that in this movie (and most other movies as well), the scientists have a presentation of their data ready almost immediately. She presses a seemingly random button and there is the full analysis as a visual graphic . So she has prepared all this beforehand? I don't get it.
At least for this movie, the lab had a full compliment of other scientists and technicians to do the routine tests and tasks. (In an earlier scene, a lead character used a waldo to remove the meteorite from the satellite, but the rest of the work was done by a side character who they paged.) A lot of work was being done by off-camera scientists.
@@mmattson8947 This makes sense. Lots of lab assistants doing the actual work.
That's how you write a strong female character.
Who doesn't have to belittle her fellow male scientists in order to be "better" or "above" them...
@@seantiwell9717 This film contains four men who don't do that, either. Remarkable for the 1970s. Or, in fact, any time.
When u are strong
It's a Mitsubishi!
Great film.
Saw this as a an adolescent/teen on TV 📺 in the 70’s. It was mind blowing! Still one of my favorite movies, and as relevant in ‘24 after Covid-19. 🦠
Yeah if you haven't seen this film see it. A little dated but so what it is a great story expertly told.
They should make a sequel since there is a sequel book. It was written by Daniel H Wilson 11 years after Crichton’s death, but was greenlit by his widow Sherri.
You can't repeat the same creepiness.
Nice
Now we seeing Triforce

If it's a disease from space then it'll be unlike any disease in the history of medicine. 3-4-2023
hgang on a second, thats.... is that... an actual election microscope, or just the most diligent prop maker in cinema?
📺I'll stream and/or buy a copy of that movie! Otherwise, I feel that the "physical love" of my young love and his loving buddies are fair game; but the slayers of the maliciously microbial monsters should definitely be mine forever! 😍❤️💕
See? "Doctor" was already inherant. Me, and my lack of " insight", at PIN the tail on the DonsKey.
I love you, Baby.

Don't cry.
They begged then sat up.
...All except the generates Steam for turbans part.
I had to close that deal.
Ace from Space Case. A new category.
Just think if we had to deal with something like this, could we ?
Nope, you cannot count on the population to even wear a mask, let alone quarantine, if we ever had a pandemic, with a much deadlier outcome, we are hopeless. the biggest disease on this planet is ignorance and stupidity, and the cult that exists around them.
It was pure luck the world survived in this film, in reality, it's highly likely that we'd still be arguing about the political consequences as the asteroid hits.
Oh, wait. Wasn't there a film about that very subject recently? Yes. Yes there was.

Omg
What’s Billy Jean King doing in this movie?
I like how mine sweeper is considered a “High tech computer program”

What's the name of the theme / tune in the background?
Its in the soundtrack on RUclips
Wow how am i the first to comment cant belive it
You get a cookie
@Tessa Rossa ok if youre so smart tell me what will probably be the top comment on super old movie

Almost no cussing, cool professionalism, and an all-white cis-sexual cast (for shame!). This film couldn't be made these days.
There is a black staffmember / nurse in the cast. Its a supporting role, but she is present.
YOU are mistaken. This movie was remade in 2008 and it has everything you miss...!
1971 still better
Cis-sexual is a BS term, just normal people
@@dmathmothtutinean8950 ???
Boy they sure knew how to pick the hot actresses back then.
So if a woman is smart, that's not good enough -- she has to be gorgeous as well? One of the easiest ways to take a cheap shot at a woman is to criticize, denigrate, or ridicule what she looks like (which implies that a woman's physical appearance and whether or not men find her attractive is really the only value any woman can ever possibly have). Her character isn't there just to assist the men and be eye candy -- she's there to do an important job, not be a distraction. (And just in case you were thinking of saying that she didn't even do her job right...in the book, the character she portrays is a man. Men are just as capable of error as women are -- and actually, one of the points the film makes is that science always needs to leave room for the possibility of human and even mechanical error.) For that matter, the male characters aren't exactly GQ material themselves (especially the older dude). They didn't need to be, and probably shouldn't have been anyway -- one of the reasons why this film works as well as it does fifty years later and is believable is the level of realism, considering when it was made.
Now that's terminology that will eternally baffle a conservative.
Biden isn't a conservative. And he's baffled by everything.
