A half-Eskimo boy and half-Indian girl, thrown together and then torn apart in childhood, are reunited and re-separated as adults, in the thick of World War II. They are almost, not quite, reunited again in the mid-Sixties. Vincent Ward's culture-clash epic is vaultingly ambitious in scope though curiously uninvolving as personal drama, despite some strange and memorable sights: the boy encased in a complete body-cast, save for one leg; the tryst atop the domed roof of Albert Hall; the tryst atop a hot-air balloon; the life-sized papier-mâché female composed of maps; and (the pièce de résistance) the bombing of Dresden. With Jason Scott Lee, Anne Parillaud, Patrick Bergin, and Jeanne Moreau. (1993) — Duncan Shepherd
