My reaction to the film was much the same as the reviewer's.

A lot of fairly uninteresting speculation on where P or his ghost might have 
materialized along with trite footage having nothing to do with what was 
being discussed. The exception was we got to see what Jules and Chrissie 
looked and sounded like.

Richard Lane's contribution was entirely of the "what if" variety. All quite 
inane.

It's pretty hard to make a movie about someone nobody seems to know very 
much of anything about.
