(paul hirsch) it opened a year after the end of the vietnam war. and i think the country had gone through such a trauma, of being divided. the left against the right, the pro-war and anti-war were at each other's throats for so many years and with such bitterness that everyone was looking for an opportunity for something they could share in common and feel good about and unite around. (poof!) (paul hirsch) george told me that, what i'm really making here is sort of like a disney movie. so he said,"disney films always make $16 million. you could look at every picture they've ever released, they make $16 million. this picture is costing around ten, so there's no way we're going to break even on the film. but i think that with the merchandising of products related to the film, we may be able to break even." (peter bart) "star wars" for the first time brought in the concept that a film represented a franchise. that every movie could be sold in all of its little parts. there were products. there was product placement. every movie became an industry unto

i'm susan hirsch, with the city foundation. we started almost six years ago and our sole mission is to make sure there are enough safe, accessible sports fields right here in san francisco. as stated in the e.i.r. as you have heard tonight also, the city has very few fields for kids. there's a shortage. there simply are not enough fields for those kids who want to play. with rec -- rec and park we have worked hard to complete renovations in seven other parks all across san francisco. each of these parks have been enormously popular with players and moat of the parks' neighbors. the proposed beach chalet is the first to undergo an e.i.r. and with rec and park we willingly requested additional review leading to an e.i.r. which confirmed that this project is safe for people, the environment, the park and for kids and that's exactly what the e.i.r. found. this project will have practically no environmental impacts. the e.i.r. thoroughly examined many of the issues you will hear abouted tooze -- today. it's very comprehensive and ve
