VHS Movie Reviews of Mindwalk

Movie Review: Keep Playing Those Mind Games Forever ~ The Illusory Nature Of Reality
Summary: 4 Stars

"A stroll around Mont St Michel, France brings together three highly successful and educated people with disparate worldviews; a politician, a poet and a physicist. A conversation ensues about the nature of reality and the new physics that challenges what we perceive to be the tangible world around us.

The '91 film `Mindwalk' is a New Age lecture presented in the guise of a motion picture. It's really quite painless, informative and even enjoyable at times. The tour around St. Michel is wonderful and a stellar cast consisting of Liv Ullmann, Sam Waterston and John Heard make the movie well worth a watch.

Movie Review: Simply Put: GREAT Film
Summary: 5 Stars

It's such a shame that this movie has gone out of print, and no DVD release seems imminent. This is, simply put, one of the best films I have ever seen. And, to see it here being sold for a minimum double the price of list price means that there is probably little chance that others will take the chance and buy this wonderful gem.
When I first watched it, more than a decade ago, I had no idea what it was about, or who Fritjof Capra was. Now, thanks to this movie, I now have enjoyed many of his books, and even wrote a 25 page final project in a Philosophy of Physics class based on his works, and this film...and got an A.
Extremely thought provoking, beautiful scenery, great acting performances, a true classic work of art...that unfortunately gets lost in this day and age of horrid non-stop action movies with multi-million dollar special effects, and no intelligence whatsoever. I hope this film does not get lost forever one day...it deserves to live on. I'm even worried about wearing out my copy.

Movie Review: What No DVD?
Summary: 4 Stars

Fascinating movie. I can't believe it hasn't been released on DVD. Criterion Collection, wake up!

Movie Review: Could change your life
Summary: 5 Stars

Did you know that Ione Sky is in this movie? Did you know that this ultra hottie is actually the daughter of 60's psycadellica folksinger Donovan? I know! I know! It's so like, whoa!

I actually dragged my yound wife to this flick when it hit theatres decades ago. The film so fascinated me that I skipped the post dinner-date sex and began marauding through the campus library grabbing every book I could find on Systems Theory. 48 hours later, I grokked "a system is what it does" and now I can learn, design nand train circles around everyone I've ever met.

What? Skeptical? Then get your hands on this and actually listen to the poem in the context of the preceding physics lecture. See if you're not transformed.

By the way, did I mention that Ione Sky is in it?

Movie Review: Where is the DVD?!!!
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a wonderful film...thought-provoking and warm with a stunning background setting at Mont St. Michel so where is the DVD?!!!

Summary of Mindwalk

This strange experiment in filmed conversation finds three people--a physicist, a poet, a politician--yammering about the environment, science, art, government, and much else, all in an effort either to find or to dispute connections between disparate subjects. There is no story, as such--just lots of chatter (much of it not particularly profound) shot against a variety of picturesque backgrounds. If director Bernt Capra thought this would turn out to be another My Dinner with Andr?, that fantasy falls on its face. --Tom Keogh
