- Synopsis
- Fielding Pierce lives the life of an aspiring politician - in 1972 he's serving in the Coast Guard (trying to avoid Vietnam in the most honorable way), and by 1973 he has entered law school. Along the way he falls in love with Sarah, a fiercely idealistic woman who devotes her life to helping others - unfortunately she's killed in an explosion while assisting members of the Chilean resistance. Nine years later, in the middle of a congressional election, Fielding is suddenly flooded with thoughts and visions of his lost love.

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"It is a film of uncommon intelligence and rigor that illuminates a complex era, and the romance at its center is also one of exceptional passion and honesty."
-
"Structurally flawed, occasionally shlocky, but written with unusual intelligence and subtlety."
-
"It's almost startling to see a film that believes in itself and its characters so deeply."
-
"Has a good heart and some fine performances, but is too muddled at the story level to involve us emotionally."
-
"Catches the volatile beauty of what it was to be alive and politically aware in the early '70s with a rare accuracy and depth."
-
"It's too fragmented and diffuse to ever bring its parts together in any really satisfying manner."
