I remember hearing that FP was a sci-fi adaptation of a Shakespearean play,
but I'm sure which one (Tempest?) Does anyone know for sure?
Also, I was told that this was the first movie to use a SYNTHESIZER in the
soundtrack (not a theremin or a random electronic device).  Does anyone have
any better info????	Reply to: pyuxjj!rlr	Rich Rosen

... and I heard that Francis Bacon really wrote the play, &
that he was really Chinese ...
