Roeg's bizarre story about Einstein, Monroe, McCarthy, and Di Maggio - Insignificance - Epinions.com: "'Insignificance' is a story that takes place over the course of one night in 1954 New York City.

Monroe seems dedicated to proving that she knows Einstein's Theory of Relativity in an amusing sequence, and ultimately tries to get the genius into bed.
