 Synopses for Patterns (1956)
1.Rod Serling's Sizzling Depiction Of The Disfunctionality Of American business! In Serling's Emmy-winning drama, Fred Staples (Van Heflin) is a young small town plant manager who is given an executive position in the new company. He soon finds out his promotion has more to do with leverage against the company's older Vice President, who the Boss (Everett Slone, Citizen Kane) wants out. This throws Staples into a frenzy of personal loyalty, company politics and cut-throat business tactics. Patterns has crisp dialogue and the sharp wit that Serling became famous for in The Twilight Zone! Hollywood movies like MacKendrick's "The Sweet Smell of Success" and Oliver Stone's "Wall Street" certainly trace their roots to Rod Serling's Patterns!
