...Rubine, and Millionaire Realtor Arnold Kirkeby, former head of the Kirkeby chain of luxury hotels. Ironically, 17 passengers had transferred to American One at the last moment, when a United Air Lines flight was canceled. So shattered were the bodies that Chief Medical Examiner Milton Helpern ruled out visual identification by relatives as "inhumane," set out to distinguish them by fingerprints and other means...

In it, he showed all sorts of technical ability with flashbacks and composition, but he never seemed able to integrate this talent with Marguerite Duras' rather somnolent script.

The music itself often has a trancelike quality. A listener...
