A Glorious Accident (1993)
Directed by Rob Schröder, Wim Kayzer, Max Kisman, Lies Ros
Overview
One of the most interesting shows ever aired on public television was Wim Kayzer’s interviews with six leading intellectuals who represented both the mainstream academic (Stephen J. Gould, Freeman Dyson and Stephen Toulmin) and more or less, as it were, “eccentric” outside the box groundbreaking intellectuals (Oliver Sacks and Rupert Sheldrake). Kayzer interviews each of them (and philosopher Daniel Dennett) individually and then has the entire group sit in a kind of round-table seminar that he moderates and lets the ideas fly.
