"Brainstorm" presents intriguing concepts but struggles with cohesion. Natalie Wood's death during filming posed challenges. Christopher Walken's involvement in the off-screen incident is noted. Louise Fletcher's performance is praised, though the story lacks unity.
Natalie Wood died near the end of principal photography. Yeah, Walken was on the boat with Wood and her hubby Robert Wagner. Go figure. Fletcher played her part beautifully and looked great. The story doesn’t really jell but they had a lot to deal with to get this movie done.
Interesting ideas, but just didn’t come together.
