"Earlier Quentins, including Jason Robards (who created the part) and Frank Langella, are said to have deployed every phrase-electrifying, soul-illuminating weapon in their dramatic arsenals.
In contrast, Mr. Krause delivers Quentin's ontological rants with, at best, the perplexed concentration of someone who is not mechanically inclined reading a car repair manual."
OUCH!

Posted: 7/30/04 at 4:31pmwell, I can't say I totally disagree -- Peter's performance was not that terrific -- although I may have been more tactful

"All I ask of you is one thing: please don't be cynical. I hate cynicism -- it's my least favorite quality and it doesn't lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen."

Posted: 7/30/04 at 6:36pmI can go with Brantley on Krause but his faint praise for the superb Carla Gugino is entirely irksome.
Faced with these Loreleis, what man can moralize!

I totally agree with that review, for the exception of Carla...she was very good
I really did not like this production one bit
