DBW &#8211; I tltolay agree that the fact that Linda is sort of a peripheral character really strengthens the odd feeling of the film &#8211; that you are watching something that is long since past, all of the edges have blurred. I suppose if you&#8217;re waiting for passion and histrionics you would be disappointed (and I love me some passion and histrionics!) &#8211; but I just don&#8217;t think they fit at all in this film.Even Sam Shepard, with his growing realization that his wife is in love with Gere &#8211; he&#8217;s troubled, yes, but he doesn&#8217;t tear his (or her) hair out.The biggest moment of climax in the film has nothing to do with human beings at all &#8211; and that&#8217;s the plague of grasshoppers, which haunts me to this day. God, how did they FILM that? InCREDible. Quite a propos that the saddest moment in the film has nothing to do with the problems in the love triangle &#8211; but a sense of how brutal nature can be.
