Review:
In telling the life story of Richard Feynman, Peter Parnell's QED chops all the charismatic physicist's recollections into mini-bites that are endlessly interrupted by ringing telephones, knocks at the door and his own racing intellect. Alan Alda's charm keeps things percolating for the first hour, but a static and predictable second act - complete with a femme ex machina - dulls the evening considerably. Copenhagen it ain't.
