''Modesty Blaise'' was a 1982 American-produced one-hour television pilot produced for the ABC Network and based upon the comic strip ''Modesty Blaise'', created by Peter O'Donnell. This was the second attempt at adapting the comic strip as a live-action production, following a 1966 film of the same title. It was written by Stephen Zito, directed by Reza Badigi, with Barney Rosenzweig as executive producer. The plot has a few elements taken from O'Donnell's first ''Modesty Blaise'' novel (which in turn had been a novelization of a practically unused screenplay that Peter O'Donnell had written for the first ''Modesty Blaise'' film) but is largely original.

Plot The plot, set in what appears to be Los Angeles, involves Modesty and Willie preventing th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
