...come across as driven fanatics; the tolerance of their teachings is matched by an accommodating approach. "Baha'is are very eager to spread their message all over the world," Porter said. But when the audience is uninterested--as many roommates of Baha'is are--"you have to keep your mouth shut" to avoid alienating them. Ludwig Tuman, a bearded junior who is a former Christian, said Bahai's expect to spread "at least as much by deeds as words."

Craig also broods about his past (he has been an s.o.b. to a lot of little people) and agonizes over his future. His soul-searching is sup ported by a pulpy cast that includes his own Antonioni-bred daughter, his Irish agent, an embittered ex-screenwriter, an aging movie mogul, several leering French waiters and - since this is Cannes - a falling-down...
