As portrayed in the new HBO drama series "Westworld," inspired by the 1973 Michael Crichton feature film and premiering Sunday, Oct. 2, it's a place where monied clientele get to live out their fantasies in an Old West setting. Want to take down a desperado and his gang in a saloon shootout? You can do that. Torture a con- fession out of a bandit? You can do that, too. Bed a prostitute? Yep, as many and as often as you want. Your every fantasy can be indulged without fear of repercussion, injury or death. The only limitation is how deeply you want to explore your own desires. Of course, all these characters in your fan- tasy are actually very humanlike robots known as "hosts," which cry ap- parently real tears, bleed apparently real blood and die apparently real deaths. That is, until their theme park overseers and programmers haul them in, clean them up, wipe their memories and put them back out to service the next group of paying "guests." The only problem is some are beginning to malfunction, some due to a faulty update to their pro- gramming, others for rea- sons unknown. And that could mean danger for the guests — and ultimately everyone at the park. Heading Westworld is its founder and creative director Dr. Robert Ford, a brilliant, taciturn man played by Anthony Hop- kins, who likens his char- acter to another famous theme park creator. "He's like a Walt Disney," Hopkins says. "He's created this theme park and he lives and he breathes this theme park. ... It begins to run out of his control and he knows there's something amiss because these robots, these hosts are beginning to act out on their own. They have their own mo- tives, and Jeffrey Wright's character reports to me, 'There's something going wrong.' ... He discovers that ... these robots are beginning to think for themselves and turn against the humans." Thandie Newton stars in "Westworld," premiering Sunday on HBO.
