Ben is just grumpy he wasn't cast as Cowboy in THE BOYS IN THE BAND so he's taking it out on everyone else.

I have a problem with Ben Brantley. His reviews don't make sense. If he likes something, I usually don't feel the same way. I wonder why "The Times" has allowed him to continue as their chief drama critic all these years. I think they should bring back Frank RIch.

So you're saying he is consistent in his tastes?

That would be called a difference of opinions.

I find that I agree with Ben about 75% of the time, he is pretty consistent, and I like much of what he champions, but I don't think he is a very good writer. The comment about Rich is, uh, naive.

I actually think he's a very good writer.
