An American politician, an expatriate poet, and a sequestered physicist come together on Mont-St.-Michel to talk about The Big Picture. (The script was co-adapted by physicist Fritjof Capra from his own book, and was directed by his brother Bernt Capra, so guess which of the three principals gets to do most of the talking.) It's fluent talk, thoughtful talk, stimulating talk, illuminating talk. But movie talk? Human talk? Conversational talk? Sam Waterston, John Heard, and Liv Ullmann do their best; they are not allowed to do their most. (1991) — Duncan Shepherd
