Although hollow predictions seem to characterize the six-year search for a second-stage arms accord, Warnke's optimistic assessment may be accurate. The bulk of SALT II does appear ready for signing.

Is it Fassbinder's vision or Herman's? Does Herman have only intermittent directorial control? There are clear-cut fantasy sequences which...
