SUMMARY:Sphere - DVD
DESCRIPTION:Barry Levinson directed this $100+ million adaptation of Michae
 l Crichton's science fiction novel about the investigation of a half-mile-l
 ong spacecraft sitting on the South Pacific ocean floor. Government functio
 nary Barnes (Peter Coyote) assembles a crack scientific team -- psychologis
 t Dr. Norman Goodman (Dustin Hoffman)\, who wrote a presidential report on 
 alien contact\; biochemist Beth Halperin (Sharon Stone)\, once involved rom
 antically with Goodman\; mathematician Harry Adams (Samuel L. Jackson)\; an
 d astrophysicist Ted Fielding (Liev Schreiber). After descending a thousand
  feet\, they set up housekeeping at their underwater Habitat base\, suit up
 \, and enter the craft\, finding evidence that it's a U.S. ship from the fu
 ture. However\, the craft's cargo of a shimmering\, golden sphere is defini
 tely alien. After Harry contrives to enter the sphere\, Norman notes his od
 d behavior. When the Habitat computer system receives an email message from
  the sphere ("I am happy")\, it's not long before the messages from this en
 tity take a threatening turn ("I will kill you all")\, triggering fears to 
 surface along with violent attacks to the Habitat. The film is divided into
  chapters\, such as "The Ride Down\," "The First Exchange\," and "The Monst
 er." Shot on soundstages at the abandoned Mare Island Naval Shipyard (Valle
 jo\, California)\, the effects combine animation\, miniatures\, prosthetics
 \, animatronics\, and digital images. Ed Asner reads the Sphere audiobook.
