I appreciate the enthusiasm of your review, but I have to disagree that it was a bore. I found it a jolly good romp through these characters and their marriage, albeit one with a disappointing ending (if you can't get characters off well, get them off quickly, as a writing professor used to say).
I wouldn't have needed another 95 minutes of that play, but I would gladly have stuck around to see what it was like, which isn't always the case. 90 minutes of "The Flick" was just about as much of "The Flick" as I could stand, though I had a good time hanging out in the experience.... I made it through less of "John", but then I thoroughly got wrapped up in the strange incantation that was "The Antipodes". |
