Produced for public television broadcast in Ontario, Pilot takes the form of a prime-time newsmagazine, with General Idea as the subject. As hosts, AA Bronson, Felix Partz, and Jorge Zontal describe their collective transformation from young strivers to "famous, glamorous artists," and the diversification of the General Idea media empire. Using a library of clips, they recount General Idea's public performances, films, and fashion designs (such as the "Venetian Blind Gown," modeled here by dancers, swimmers and snow skiers). They also discuss their print publication, FILE, and their decision to change the magazine's logo after Time-Life sued them for trademark infringement in June 1974. ("They didn't like our lifelike format," says Bronson.) A witty survey of the group's early work, Pilot is punctuated throughout by a voice-over manifesto on their continuing project, the Miss General Idea Pavilion of 1984. close

January 24, 1941. The 22nd Earl of Errol was found dead on the Nairobi-Ngong road during the outbreak of World War II.
The golden age of the British Empire was nearing its end, but the empire’s influence around the world remained significant. Few places have colonial life been more luxurious than in Kenya, which has become one of the brightest diamonds in the British crown. World War II was raging, and the dances in Nairobi continued.
Who would have thought that this would be the last day for the secular lion, Count Errol. Josslyn Victor Haye, 22nd Earl of Errol and hereditary Lord Constable of Scotland, was killed on the road from Ngong to Nairobi. It is possible that Count Errol's murder was not a surprise. But even for wartime, the trial of the English baronet, Sir Jock Dalvis Broten, accused of murdering the Earl, was a sensation. Many then and then suspected Broten's wife. She was Errol's mistress and wanted to marry him, but her plan failed. . .
Did the cuckold Jock Brothen pull the trigger, or was his young wife the killer? Or maybe he was a victim of political intrigue? close
