Curiosidades

Adam is a 1983 American made-for-television film starring Daniel J. Travanti and JoBeth Williams. It aired on October 10, 1983, on NBC. On its original air date, it was seen by an audience of 38 million people. It was rebroadcast on April 30, 1984, and rebroadcast again on April 29, 1985. At the end of each broadcast, a series of missing children's photographs and descriptions were displayed on the screen for viewers, and a telephone number was also given for viewers to call if they had any information about them.

Production

Filming was conducted both in and around Houston, Texas. The scenes portrayed at the Hollywood Mall in Hollywood, Florida, were filmed at the now defunct Westwood Mall in Houston, at the Sears which was one of its former anchor stores. The mall closed in 1998 and was converted into offices. The Sears where some scenes were filmed closed in 2017 and was converted to an automobile dealership service center.

The Lamaze scene where Revé went into premature labor was filmed at the Woman's Hospital of Texas.

The three broadcasts of the film were followed by pictures and descriptions of missing children as of each of the respective broadcasts. A hotline was also active, to take calls regarding the children. This was ultimately credited with finding 13 of 55 children from the 1983 broadcast, including future rapper Bizzy Bone, and 19 of 51 children shown in the 1984 broadcast.
