For years, I'd wanted to see Luchino Visconti's film "Ludwig," about Ludwig II of Bavaria. There are some of the hoped-for views of Linderhof, Herrenchiemsee, and Neuschwanstein but the placeness of the film is mostly internal. Inside Ludwig's madness and obsessions, that is. Elizabeth and I had had a discussion about Romy Schneider and she is indeed beautiful in this film, and we were thinking it a unique beauty. Imagine my surprise when reading the December 18th Times to see a picture of Stockard Channing, upcoming in "Pal Joey," looking rather like Schneider.
