Dick Tracy, comic strip created in 1931 by Chester Gould is a hard hitting, fast shooting, and supremely intelligent police detective who matched wits with a variety of colorful villains. Gould wrote and drew the strip until 1977. Gould introduced a raw violence to comic strips, reflecting the violence of Chicago. But Gould also did his best to keep up with the latest in crime fighting techniques and while Tracy often ends a case in a shoot out, he uses forensic science, advanced gagetry, and plain hard thinking to track the bad guy down. It has been suggested that this comic strip was the first example of the police procedural mystery story. See story detail

Pretty Womanwas starring by Richard Gere and Julia Roberts (1990). The film had to license the song from Orbison, but since titles cannot be copyrighted, neither Orbison nor 2 Live Crew had any claim on the title of the film. Oddly enough, observers noted that the film's poster could become involved in another sampling issue. Since Julia Roberts' head is superimposed on an anonymous model's body, the model has the right to demand a release for reproduction along with Roberts, and Richard Gere, who is also shown.

He finds himself pursued by killers led by Richter (Michael Ironside) and is forced to go to Mars for real where he joins the struggle against Mars Administrator Vilos Cohaagen (Ronny Cox). However, the "real" events on Mars are uncannily like the events described as occurring in his implanted vacation, and even at the conclusion the viewer is not entirely sure what the reality of the situation is.
