FOR the past two weeks, a master class in acting has been of fered in the "Gate/Beckett" series at the Lincoln Center Festival. First came Liam Neeson's searing silent performance in "Eh Joe," followed by Barry McGovern's intensely florid solo turn...

I watched The Grifters the other night, which was based on a Jim Thompson book. Can’t say I cared for it much. Despite the great cast, the acting just killed me (sorta like watching Liam Neeson make a fool of himself in Star Wars I) Anyway, Eric assures me that the book is great (but he loves the movie so what does he know.) Regardless of either the book’s or the movie’s quality, these covers are...

Liam Neeson's towering body stoops, hunched in a forest green wrapper--the only bit of real color in the grey brown space of a single man's room, though it too is rendered monotone and drab in context. Life itself is rendered...

Although it lasts just half an hour, this staging of a Samuel Beckett's "Eh Joe," performed by Liam Neeson, is one of the most wholly satisfying nights I've spent at the theater this year.

Liam Neeson doesn't say a word. Barry McGovern doesn't shut up. Both wear ratty bathrobes and rattle dry bones from the human abyss in two of the most haunting theatrical pieces Samuel Beckett never wrote for the stage.

I saw this film earlier tonight on Sky One, and I swear it will be the last time I ever try to watch a movie on that channel. The ad-breaks are about 10 minutes long, and just when you think that you’ve seen the last idiotic commercial for their dreadful programming, along comes an advert [...]
