Today, rewinding to him in Of Mice and Men (1939) alongside Lon Chaney Jr. or Second Chorus (1940) with Fred Astaire is unsettling; the resemblance is evident, yet it seems somehow not to be him. But that other Burgess Meredith was everything else, from a Shakespearean actor to the quacking Penguin in TV's Batman. He directed himself and Charles Laughton in The Man on the Eiffel Tower, co-produced On Our Merry Way with Henry Fonda and James Stewart, and made three Twilight Zone episodes in 1959.

And the old czarist favorite, "Orthodoxy, Autocracy and Nationhood," lacks that all-important democratic touch. In their report "Russia in Search of an Idea," the Commission delivers a lot of weighty analysis ? try ploughing through chapters like "The Distribution of Metaphors Related to the Understanding of the National Idea" or "The Ideology of Language and the Language of Ideology" ? but not an original notion to be found.
