Forman survived Nazi and Czech communist rule and that probably played a part in the creation of the movie. He is most famous for his riveting and thought-provoking depictions of real-life geniuses and rebels - those who exist on society's fringes (McMurphy, Mozart, Flynt, Kauffman). Here, though the production is slick, he provides us with only a very brief glimpse of the inherent conflict and drama associated with such personalities. The script, co-written by Forman and Buñuel regular Jean-Claude Carrière, might work as a Dadaist feature, but fails as a historical drama, and is even more disappointing as a biopic.
