Officer Gavin Guy gets a call on his radio to apprehend 2 suspects in a red Nissan who have been accused of armed robbery. Officer Guy pulls up to the Nissan parked outside a hotel and the suspects are just getting ready to flee. Before the men can drive away Officer Guy and his partner drive up and tell the men to get out of the car and get on the ground. We can see via close-up the man in the car is reaching for the dash and it doesn’t look good, so the 2 officers reach for their guns are ready for anything. The men are wrestled to the ground as another police unit screeches up. The 2 suspect are taken into custody and questioned but no evidence is found (neither guns nor cash) and they are released due to lack of proof. It is later suspected that the woman who called the police had a grievance with one of the men.

TAPE_NUMBER: EN9911 IN_TIME: 10:44:38 LENGTH: 03:47 SOURCES: APTN/WARNER BROS RESTRICTIONS: NO RESALE FILM/VIDEO CLIPS FEED: VARIOUS (THE ABOVE TIME-CODE IS TIME-OF-DAY) SCRIPT: xfa English/Nat LOS ANGELES, 15TH MARCH ENG/NATSOT CLINT UNVEILS HIS LATEST FLICK =============================== The world premiere of CLINT EASTWOOD's latest movie, TRUE CRIME, held on Monday night at Warner Bros Studios, Burbank, turned out to be a low key event, attracting a smattering of celebrities including the actor/director himself and fellow cast members ISAIAH WASHINGTON, FRANCES FISHER and DIANE VENORA. Also along for the screening, VING RHAMES, NOAH WYLE, GEORGE CLOONEY and country singer RANDY TRAVIS. Steve Everett (CLINT EASTWOOD) is an investigative reporter with a lot of problems. An alcoholic, he's only been sober for two months. An unrelenting womanizer, he's on the verge of being thrown out by his wife, Barbara (DIANE VENORA). Thanks to his messy personal life, he has been fired from the New York Times. He has since relocated to the West Coast and The Oakland Tribune. If it wasn't for his friend Alan Mann (JAMES WOODS), the Tribune's editor-in-chief, he wouldn't have a job at all. The move to the West Coast and the last-chance job have no effect on Everett's style, which infuriates the Tribune's stiff-necked assignment editor, Bob Findley (DENIS LEARY). Indeed, when Findley wants to send Everett on a particular assignment, the editor calls home and asks his wife, who is in bed with Everett at the time, to put the wayward reporter on the phone. Findley has resorted to this desperate measure because another of his reporters, covering the impending San Quentin execution of convicted murderer Frank Beachum (ISAIAH WASHINGTON), has been killed in an automobile accident. The final interview with the condemned man there fore goes to Everett, who reluctantly begins to research the case, anticipating a routine story. Despite the reoccurring complications in his own life, from the jalopy he drives to his collapsing marriage, Steve Everett is an excellent reporter. His background check on Frank Beachum, connected to the details of the robbery and homicide that took place in an Oakland convenience store, just doesn't add up. When he meets with Beachum at the prison, Everett receives information that confirms his instincts. He begins a manic search for information which will stay the condemned man's execution. Everett's race against the clock in relentless pursuit of the truth keeps him chasing leads while Beachum sits on Death Row, the odds stacked against him and with Everett his only hope of survival. Harried, hassled and trying not to self-destruct, Everett has less than 12 hours to save the life of a man he knows is innocent. Shot on location in Oakland, California, and the surrounding East Bay of San Francisco, "True Crime" is Clint Eastwood's twenty-first film as a director. Returning to the area where he grew up and attended high school, Eastwood came to the project with Oakland in mind from the outset. The book was written with St. Louis as the city where the story takes place but Eastwood liked the visual possibilities better with Oakland a city he knows well having grown up there and done a handful of films across the bay. "Dirty Harry" Callahan was a San Francisco homicide detective and was featured in five memorable films, all of which were made in San Francisco. "True Crime" includes scenes shot at San Quentin prison, as well as locations in downtown Oakland, San Leandro, and the countryside surrounding Petaluma. The soundstage work took place at the Naval Air Station in Alameda, on sets which were specially constructed to duplicate the cells on San Quentin's Death Row and the prison's gas chamber. Academy Award-winning production designer Henry Bumstead ("To Kill A Mockingbird," "The Sting") was enlisted to recreate the prison sets, having recently worked for Eastwood on "Midnight In The Garden of Good and Evil," "Absolute Power" and "Unforgiven." As an actor, Clint Eastwood has given Hollywood some of its most memorable characters. His most recent parts have included the cat burglar Luther Whitney from the 1996 hit "Absolute Power," the National Geographic photographer Robert Kincaid from the 1995 blockbuster, "The Bridges of Madison County," and the Texas Ranger Red Garnett from the critically praised "A Perfect World" in 1994. In 1993 Eastwood starred as Secret Service agent Frank Horrigan, a man who had to come to terms with his own fallibility, in the $100 million hit "In The Line of Fire." It was "Unforgiven," however, in 1992, that marked a crucial point in Eastwood's career. The film was his 36th starring feature and his 10th Western. Presenting a tortured, alcoholic gunman named William Munny, Eastwood gave moviegoers the antithesis of the traditional Western hero. "Unforgiven" generated $100 million in box-office and nine Academy Award nominations (Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Set Design, Best Sound and Best Editing). It received four Oscars: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor and Best Sound. It also marked the first time in his career that Eastwood received an Oscar nomination for Best Actor. Eastwood's first break from his days as a contract player came in the well-documented move to the "Rawhide" television series, where he played cowboy Rowdy Yates. This led to the starring role in Italian director Sergio Leone's "Man With No Name" trilogy, including "A Fistful of Dollars," "For a Few Dollars More," and "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly." The enormous popularity of these films not only helped coin the expression "Spaghetti Western," but moved Eastwood into subsequent starring roles in a long string of hits such as "Hang 'Em High," "Coogan's Bluff," "Where Eagles Dare," "Paint Your Wagon," "Two Mules For Sister Sarah," "Kelly's Heroes" and "The Beguiled." Eastwood made his debut as a director with "Play Misty For Me," in which he also starred, followed by the legendary "Dirty Harry" in 1970. Directed by Don Siegel, the film created another worldwide Eastwood persona, and was followed by films such as "Joe Kidd," "High Plains Drifter," "Magnum Force," "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot," "The Eiger Sanction," "The Outlaw Josey Wales," "The Enforcer" and "The Gauntlet." "Every Which Way But Loose," a comic-action film in which Eastwood starred opposite an orangutan named Clyde, became his biggest box-office grosser. It was followed by "Escape From Alcatraz," directed by Don Siegel, the whimsical "Bronco Billy," the sequel to "Every Which Way But Loose" in the form of "Any Which Way You Can," "Firefox," "Honkytonk Man" and "Sudden Impact." "Tightrope" followed, a film widely praised by reviewers, which challenged Eastwood's conventional image of tough big-city cop. The comedy "City Heat" presented Eastwood in tandem with Burt Reynolds, while the enigmatic "Pale Rider" once again brought him back to a Western theme. Eastwood then portrayed a Marine gunnery sergeant in "Heartbreak Ridge," returned to his fifth Dirty Harry film with "The Dead Pool," entertained the notion of a good-hearted bounty hunter in "Pink Cadillac," and trained a novice cop in the art of police work in "The Rookie." In 1995, Eastwood was honored with the Irving Thalberg Award for Lifetime Achievement by The Motion Picture Academy at the annual Academy Awards. JAMES WOODS plays the editor-in-chief of The Oakland Tribune and Steve Everett's friend and confidant. He is one of Hollywood's most prolific and talented actors. His recent "Ghosts of Mississippi" portrayal of Byron De La Beckwith, convicted murderer of civil-rights activist Medgar Evers, earned him his second Academy Award nomination and a Golden Globe nomination. Woods' voice-over portrayal of Hades in Disney's animated "Hercules" won critical raves, as did his teaming with Jodie Foster and Matthew McConaughey in Robert Zemeckis' "Contact." Woods recently starred in "John Carpenter's Vampires" and "Another Day In Paradise." He has worked for many of the film industry's greatest directors, including Oliver Stone ("Salvador," "Nixon"), Martin Scorsese ("Casino"), Harold Becker ("The Onion Field"), Elia Kazan ("The Visitors"), Arthur Penn ("Night Moves"), Ted Kotcheff ("Joshua, Then and Now"), Rob Reiner ("Ghosts of Mississippi") and Robert Zemeckis ("Contact"). DENIS LEARY is the assignment editor for The Oakland Tribune and Steve Everett's immediate boss.With a background in comedy standup Leary's feature credits include the role of a rebellious ladybug in Dreamworks' "A Bug's Life"; an ensemble role in "Monument Ave."; a role opposite Robert DeNiro and Dustin Hoffman in Barry Levinson's Oscar-nominated "Wag the Dog"; an appearance in Tom DiCillo's "The Real Blonde" and a starring role opposite Kevin Spacey and Judy Davis in "The Ref." ISAIAH WASHINGTON is a young actor on the rise with key roles in "Out of Sight," "Clockers," "Bulworth," "Love Jones," "Get On The Bus," "Girl 6," "Dead Presidents," "Crooklyn" and "Mixing Nia." DIANE VENORA, who plays Barbara Everett, Steve Everett's long-suffering wife and mother to his seven-year-old daughter won rave reviews for her smoldering performance in "Heat" opposite Al Pacino, and for her empowering portrait in "Surviving Picasso" with Anthony Hopkins. Her additional recent theatrical credits include "The Jackal," with Bruce Willis, Richard Gere and Sidney Poitier; and "Eaters of The Dead," with Antonio Banderas and Omar Sharif. SYDNEY TAMIIA POITIER, who plays the assistant to city editor Bob Findley, is the daughter of legendary actor, director and producer Sidney Poitier and she is a graduate of New York University, with a degree in acting. Poitier starred in the Showtime feature "Free of Eden," as well as in the independent film "Park Day," which won the Audience Award at the 1998 UrbanWorld Film Festival. "True Crime" has a screenplay by Larry Gross and Paul Brickman and Stephen Schiff, based on the novel by Andrew Klavan. The film is produced by Richard D. Zanuck & Lili Fini Zanuck; it is produced and directed by Clint Eastwood.

Sgt. Mark Chesnut pulled behind the dark-colored Dodge Magnum, turned on the blue lights of his unmarked patrol car and slowed to a stop on the shoulder of Interstate 40 near Bellevue. The video camera on Chesnut's dashboard recorded his walk to the driver's side door and his talk with the driver, Courtney Logan. The 22-year police veteran had stopped Logan because he noticed the man was not wearing a seat belt. What Chesnut did not know was that he had stopped a getaway car, with a convicted robber at the wheel and a Mississippi prison escapee in the backseat, shielded by tinted windows. The camera kept rolling and would later bear witness to Chesnut's unexpected fight for survival. It all happened in about seven minutes. Logan, 25, of Louisville, Ky., produced a license but couldn't find the rental car's registration. Chesnut acknowledged and spoke to the passenger in the backseat, Joseph Jackson Jr., 30. Chesnut asked Logan to step out of the car. Logan stood between the front of the police car and the back of the Magnum while Chesnut went to his car and ran a computer check on the license plate, and turned down the audio on the dashboard camera. The camera, still filming, recorded Jackson getting out of the rental car and walking back to Chesnut's passenger side. Police say he talked with Chesnut through the open window but the conversation could not be heard. Jackson later admitted that he went to Chesnut's car the first time "to make sure he was alone," Metro detective Norris Tarkington said. Jackson walked back to the rental car, but seconds later he returned to Chesnut's passenger window, this time armed with a .38-caliber Smith & Wesson handgun taken from a Mississippi prison guard earlier in the day, police say. Logan stood there as Jackson fired five shots at Chesnut. Two bullets lodged in the sergeant's body armor. Three others pierced his torso and right arm. Logan told investigators he only heard the shooting, but police say that's not true. "The video shows Logan looking at Jackson," Tarkington said. "After the shooting, Logan appears to be smiling, almost laughing.'' Jackson walked back to the rental car empty handed. Then, he hesitated, stopped and turned around to look at Chesnut.Backing up for cover Suddenly, the wounded officer threw his car into reverse and began backing up along the interstate's shoulder, stopping after rolling some 40 feet. Jackson sprinted to the rental car, and with Logan back in the driver's seat, the pair fled. Chesnut radioed for help, giving a description of his assailants. Less than an hour later they were arrested on Hermitage Avenue. Tarkington arrived at Chesnut's car about 15 minutes after the shooting. He saw the injured officer surrounded by paramedics. They rushed Chesnut to Vanderbilt University Medical Center, where trauma surgeons saved his life but cautioned that his road to recovery would be a long one. The 44-year-old officer is now in a rehabilitation center. After hearing Tarkington's testimony and his account of what the video shows, Davidson County General Sessions Judge Leon Ruben on Tuesday sent the case to the grand jury. The video was not shown in court. Both men are charged with attempting to murder Chesnut that day — June 25 — and remain jailed on bonds totaling more than $3 million each. Tarkington interviewed both men and Jackson expressed remorse for the shooting. "He told me, 'Nothing I can say or do can justify what I did. I didn't have to shoot that officer,' " Tarkington said. Jackson identified Logan, his cousin, as the person who helped him escape early on the morning of the shooting, when three prison guards took him to an optometrist's appointment at a Greenwood, Miss., clinic away from the Delta Correctional Facility. Jackson was serving a life sentence for armed robbery and aggravated assault. A prison guard told detectives last week that Logan was the person who took her gun during the prison break. Police said they found the gun on the front seat of Chesnut's police car. Police Chief Ronal Serpas doesn't believe a lifetime in prison is enough for the men. "I hope they go to prison for the rest of their natural lives here on earth,'' Serpas said. "Then after their natural lives here on earth, I hope they go to prison in hell.''

FILM COMPANIES RESTRICTIONS: No re-use/re-sale of film/video/tv clips without clearance, Oscars past material = No re-use/re-sale, after Oscars on 25th March 2001 FEED: Entertainment Daily SCRIPT: xfa English/Nat Title: Oscars: Supporting roles Date: File Location: Various With only ten days left until the biggest celebrity award show, The Oscars, APTN take a look at who is in the running for an Oscar in the Best Supporting Actor and the Best Supporting Actress category. In the Best Supporting Actor category, the bookies' favourite is quite easily BENICIO DEL TORO, who has swept the board in the same category at the Golden Globes, the New York Film Critics Awards, and the BAFTAs, as well as winning the award for Best Actor at both the Berlin Film Festival and the SAG Awards for his role as an ethically torn Mexican cop in "Traffic." In fact it doesn't seem like there has been an award show in which he hasn't gone up to the podium to collect another gong. Although del Toro has been seen in various international films over the past five years, his role in "Traffic" has truly made him a household name around the world. Also, in the running for the Best Supporting Actor Oscar is JEFF BRIDGES, who plays President Jackson Evans in the film "The Contender". Bridges has been nominated for an Oscar three times before, the first time for his role as Duane Jackson in the 1971 feature "The Last Picture Show", the second for his role in the Clint Eastwood film "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot", where he upstaged Eastwood's Thunderbolt with his portrayal as Lightfoot in this film about a bank robbery, and the third for his portrayal, in Against All Odds, of an ex-football player hired by a gangster to find his girlfriend, only to fall in love with her himself. He failed to get the gong on each of those occasions. Whether this year's Oscars will see Bridges come up trumps this year is just another of the mysteries that will be resolved on the day of the awards. Next up is veteran British actor, ALBERT FINNEY, who has been nominated for his role as the capable but unkempt attorney Ed Masry in the film "Erin Brockovich" about the uneducated twice-divorced mother of three who spearheads an investigation that leads to the largest pay-off ever made in a direct-action lawsuit. Like Bridges, Finney has been Oscar nominated in the past but never won. He was first nominated for his role as Tom Jones in Tony Richardson's freewheeling adaptation of Henry Fielding's novel of the same name. The second was for his role as Sir in "The Dresser" in 1983, a film about a touring Shakespearean company. His third was for his role as Geoffrey Firmin in the 1984 film "Under The Volcano" whilst his fourth was for his portrayal of Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot in the film "Murder on the Orient Express." JOAQUIN PHOENIX is hoping that an Oscar this year will solidify his burgeoning career in Hollywood. He is nominated for his role as the dastardly Commodus in probably last year's biggest blockbuster "Gladiator." However, Phoenix didn't have any idea that the film was going to be the epic film that he saw when he first watched it, citing director RIDLEY SCOTT for the power of the flick. Last up in the Best Supporting Actor category is WILLEM DAFOE, who is nominated for his role as the 'real life' vampire MAX SCHRECK in the film "Shadow of the Vampire", which is the story behind the movie "Nosferatu." Like Finney and Bridges he has been nominated once before for his role as the Christ-like soldier Sergeant Elias in the film "Platoon", but like the other missed out. Dafoe told APTN that he thrives on doing character roles, saying "I look for characters like that because I think they're more fun to play and they play on our imaginations and stories told with those characters are more potent." In the Best Supporting Actress category, the Hollywood media have their favourite in the shape of GOLDIE HAWN's daughter KATE HUDSON for her role as teenage groupie Penny Lane in director CAMERON CROWE's biopic "Almost Famous." "Almost Famous" is the young actress' first major role in a feature film and has seen the starlet strutting the red carpet at award shows and premieres around the world, clad in designer gear and expensive jewellery - a sure sign that the fashion industry believe that Hudson is going to be a very big star. The last twelve months have seen Hudson rise out of obscurity, get married to Black Crowes singer Chris Robinson, and get nominated for an Oscar. If she wins the Oscar, Hudson will no doubt become one of the world's hottest stars and will grace the covers of magazines everywhere. Also nominated for the film is previous Oscar winner FRANCES MCDORMAND for her role as the protective mother of the film's central character William (played by Patrick Fugit). She has been nominated for two Oscars previously; the first was for her role as a woman reluctantly testifying against her husband in the controversial flick "Mississippi Burning", and her second, where she managed to clinch the Oscar, was for her role as the off-beat policewoman, Marge Gunderson, in the Cohen brothers film "Fargo." DAME JUDI DENCH is back for another possible Oscar this year, although it's rumoured that she won't be able to turn up for the biggest showbiz ceremony of the year. She's nominated for her role as Armande Voizin, the village's somewhat frumpy dowager with an insatiable sweet-tooth despite her diabetes in the film "Chocolat". She has previously been nominated for her role as Queen Victoria in the film "Mrs Brown" and two years ago she scooped the Oscar for her eight minutes of screen presence as Queen Elizabeth in the now classic "Shakespeare in Love". Up for her first Oscar nomination is MARCIA GAY HARDEN for her role as American painter Jackson Pollock's wife, Lee Krasner, in the biopic "Pollock." For the role Harden did a massive amount of research into the character of Krasner and has even been congratulated by some of Krasner's relatives for her portrayal. Her co-star ED HARRIS is nominated for his part as Jackson Pollock in the Best Actor category. The film still hasn't had a release yet, but has been wowing audiences at the Venice, Toronto, New York, Palm Springs and Rotterdam film festivals. The Oscar nominations will no doubt help the film's popularity when it is released later in the year. Last but not least is British comedienne-cum-actress JULIE WALTERS who has been nominated for her part as the supportive dance teacher Mrs Wilkinson in the successful British flick "Billy Elliot." This is her second Oscar nomination. Her first Oscar nomination for her role as the working class heroine in the 1983 film "Educating Rita", which she failed to get, but she did manage to scoop an OBE from the Queen of England for her services to drama in late 1999. Unlike many of the other nominees who think they have a chance of perhaps leaving the ceremony with a golden statuette under their arm, Walters thinks she doesn't have a hope and is just going out to the award ceremony to have a "nice time" instead. The results are due on March 25th. SHOTLIST: 1. VSs Oscars past - Handout - not to be used after Oscars on 25th March 2001 2. Film clip 'Traffic' (USA Films) 3.
