...what's obvious isn't always true. The plane in which John Denver died last week was indeed an experimental aircraft, a model called the Long-EZ. But it would be naive to assume that the airplane was at fault. Not only is the Long-EZ considered solid, safe and relatively easy to fly, but it also requires a pilot's license and medical certificate to operate--and Denver didn't have the latter. His certificate had been yanked by the Federal Aviation Administration after Denver was arrested twice for driving his car while intoxicated...
There, in fact, lies a fault with Fulbeck's film as a whole: too often important ideas are lost as the viewer frantically tries to make sense of the disorder of processing three different types of information all at once.

This general lack of scintillating language and not wholly original scenes grew even more grating through the stereotypical portrayal of rural Ireland that, in attempting to appear sweet, seemed oppressively imaginary...
...fair, this may not be the fault of our ruling parties. It is possible that the moral direction the public is looking for cannot be found in government. In fact, the failure of the government presents an opportunity for the other social institutions--the churches, synagogues, journals of opinion and museums. These groups may not have access to the sophisticated polling instruments that the politicians use, but given the opportunity, that should not prevent them from taking advantage of the government's loss of initiative...
