First, though, there are prayers to be said, friends to chat with, a roast goose to be eaten. Papa even allows himself an extra glass of his favorite Rhenish wine, which he calls a "noble gift of God." After the meal, he eases his thick frame down before a harpsichord in the parlor. Crowding about the creche and the candlelit tree, the party joins in singing a carol or one of Luther's mighty hymns. Then Papa-head thrown back, fingers marching over the keys in a steady, stately rhythm-begins to improvise, outlining a succession of daring harmonies...

Director Guy Green wastes footage on tepid erotic interludes, and some of his Grecian tableaux smack of spring pageants at Vassar.
