The Contest Theme
I am going to stay away from current events, or investigations of the Deep State...
No, this contest is solely based on the 67/68 TV series The Prisoner.
This is an open writing contest; In this I mean that as long as your blog addresses #informationwar and is told by reference to some aspect of the TV show, the entry is valid. The more your blog uses aspects of the show in your discussion of #informationwar, the better that I will like it.
There are a lot of different approaches to this ;>
Judging is solely by me, and will be subjective.
Some blurbs about the show
Fifty years ago, The Prisoner began serving time. McGoohan – its star, executive producer, and sometime writer-director, a hard-drinking, intransigent Irish-American actor with a sharp Olivier-like edge to his voice – became Number Six, a former secret agent who knew too much to be permitted his freedom. For 17 weeks, he struggled against the mysterious authorities of the Village, personified by Number Two – not an individual, but an office occupied by a shifting cast of guest stars. (Leo McKern, Mary Morris and Peter Wyngarde were memorable incumbents.) He resisted their mind-bending tricks and interrogation techniques, attempted to escape by land, sea and air, and strove to solve the defining mystery of the series
How did The Prisoner ever get made?
part of Markstein's inspiration came from his research into the Second World War, where he found that some people had been incarcerated in a resort-like prison called Inverlair Lodge
Wiki
McGoohan had to hide out after the finale, because so many people were so angry about it that they were after him!
How to enter
- Research the material...watching (or rewatching) the whole series if you can, or the first AND the last two episodes if you can. Amazon Prime currently carries the show (I watched it through twice last month).
- While every other episode can be mined for #informationwar material (easily!), you personally should get an impression of the finale. It doesn't need to be part of your post, but it is an eye-opener. Be prepared to read what others have explained about the end..really, I did not like the ending until I read about it from several others, and re-watched it.
- Write your blog and link the blog in the comments here.
- No resteem is necessary, no link to this post is necessary. These are appreciated!
- Contest ends October 23th, I'll share the winner on the 24th
