Better than entertainment
14 May 2004
Not entertainment in the usual sense, but three individuals discuss the world in erudite and thought-provoking ways. But if you're looking for mindless entertainment, this isn't the picture. If you're looking for understanding of our world, this is a good place to start. The scenery isn't bad, either. The three actors are very good, indeed. Liv Ullman is a physicist on sabbatical, Sam Waterston lost his primary bid for the Presidency, and John Heard is a poet.

The day-long conversation is an ebb and flow between the three of them, touching on politics, physics, and poetry. The author, Capra, sounds as if he is liberal. He's not happy with our society. (Who is?)

Don't watch this if you're tired (you may fall asleep), or don't want to think.
