JoBeth Williams can say more by directing her big sad eyes off-screen than volumes of Emily Dickinson; in Mary Kay Place's squint is the weather-beaten humor of a career woman who wants an emergency jolt of motherhood; William Hurt's eyes move like restless laser beams; Tom Berenger's search the room in masked desperation, trying to crib emotions from his quicker, less guarded friends.

But Gide's beautiful words gradually enable her to relax her delivery and precise ensemble work by the nymphs further softens the effects...
...certain to find le mot juste at Schoenhof's on Mass. Ave. (though soon to move to the basement of a Harvard finals club). Can't read another language? Not to worry, this store has close to a dozen different French-English dictionaries.
