Trivia:

Charlie was in a band called "Drive Shaft", whose only hit was called "You All Everybody". That song can be heard in the background of an episode of "Alias" (2001), another show created by J.J. Abrams.

Goofs:

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Despite being referred to as "The French Woman" and having a French last name, Danielle Rousseau speaks French with a heavy foreign accent. However, it must be remembered that she never claims to be French. The survivors assume she is French because of her transmission. "Rousseau" could be her married name, in which case she could be of any nationality.

Quotes:

[repeated line]
James 'Sawyer' Ford: Son of a bitch!

Movie Connections:

Featured in The 62nd Annual Golden Globe Awards (2005) (TV)

15 Minutes of Shock Followed by 45 of Terror.

I watched the pilot of this show and for the first 15 minutes my jaw was hanging by a thread. I have never seen a more intense, gripping sequence in my life. As an actor and budding filmmaker, I was amazed by the skill of the writers, actors, director, camera crew, f/x peeps, and composer to fill the screen with images of a plane crash aftermath. The woman screaming and Dom Monaghan wandering around clueless were brave,

effective choices to show the absurd realities of trauma. And just when it can't get any worse, women start having babies and things start blowing up. And then the trees are crushed by some...thing....which the characters avoid for the next 45 minutes.

While some may say this is unrealistic and gimmicky, I maintain that this is a brave, bold choice for ABC and like other bold movies and shows, if given the chance it will change the art. I can't wait for next week.
