在这部无足轻重剧情/喜剧片中,本片是现代讽刺喜剧片。几个不同职业的行业精英在一起聚会。这天夜里，参议员恐吓教授，让他参加非美活动委员会；棒球运动员烦恼，因为自己妻子的不忠；科学家和女演员谈论相对论，后来又想到广岛原子弹爆炸是由他的理论导致的，十分沮丧；女演员被参议员当成妓女，挨打后流产……
Four 1950's cultural icons (Albert Einstein, Marilyn Monroe, Joe DiMaggio and Senator Joseph MacCarthy) who conceivably could have met and probably didn't, fictionally do in this modern fable of post-WWII America. Visually intriguing, the film has a fluid progression of flash-backs and flash-forwards centering on the fictional Einstein's current observations, childhood memories and apprehensions for the future.
虚构的另一面。关于片中爱因斯坦的怀表。看完了毫无意义之后...。一切絕非毫無意義。
