In the Orwellian year of 1984, during Super Bowl XVIII, a commercial for Apple’s Mackintosh computer ran and became one of the most eye-catching and provocative sixty-second spots ever made. It was never shown again on television. As directed by Ridley Scott, the commercial portrays the grim world of the future dominated by Big Brother until a beautiful, athletic woman liberates everyone. For his next feature film Scott embraced the fantasy genre with Legend, a good versus evil tale set it a mythical land. Disaster hit the production when the entire elaborate set burned down. Miraculously, no one was injured, and the fairy tale environment was quickly rebuilt. The original version of Legend did poorly in front of test audiences and Scott cut it down radically, which hurt the film even more at the box office. In 1986 Ridley Scott Associates was expanded with the addition of a New York office, with more to come in the future.
