Scheduled before Hepburn's death, an eerie, slightly macabre coincidence marks the Valentine's Day screening of the 1961 classic. But the tender off-beat quality of the romance between Holly Golightly (Audrey Hepburn) and Paul Varjak (George Peppard, perhaps better known to younger viewers as a member of the A-team) is a stimulus to budding and full-blooming romance alike.

...MEET UP AGAIN with the Wittings, the warm, turn-of-the- century farm family introduced in Sarah, Plain and Tall, the Hallmark Hall of Fame 1991 hit. In SKYLARK (Feb. 7, CBS), the mail-order marriage of Sarah (Glenn Close) and Jacob (Christopher Walken) has turned into a tender love match, and Sarah's stepchildren are thriving.

But the Russian-born pianist refuses to talk about all this. He lets his music do the talking in the unfolding of these remarkable Goldberg Variations, from the first tender, probing notes of the aria, through successive layers of joy, exuberance, introspection and turbulence, and finally back to the whispered serenity of the aria. In between, as Feltsman might say, lies infinity...
