Mindwalk: This movie was released in 1990 and I must say that I had never heard of it until I stumbled across it one Saturday afternoon. The story and ideas presented have had me thinking about it since.
Plot: A US politician (Sam Waterston) visits his poet friend (John Heard) in Mont. St. Michael, France. While walking through the medeival island discussing their philosophies of life they happen upon Sonja (Liv Ullman), a scientist in recluse, who joins in their conversation. The two men listen to the ideas of this brilliant woman and discuss how her ideas can work in their own politician and poet lives.
