...savory pie, in all its manifestations, is one of the mainstays of country cooking; it does not often land on three-star-restaurant menus. Yet in all its rural and urbanized forms, ranging from quiche to pasty and pitta to pizza, it can be a one-dish meal for all seasons, with all seasonings.

The camera glides discreetly through Newport drawing rooms and Georgetown dining rooms-always the visitor on a guided tour, never the Knowledgeable Source with some dirt to dish. Jaclyn Smith is a stunner and a competent actress; as J.F.K., James Franciscus brings crinkled eyes and a Boston accent that he engages seemingly at whim.
