CGiii Comment
A beautiful production with a shambolic central performance.
Jennifer Jason Leigh's voice...it's like a cat's claws being dragged down a gargantuan blackboard. Horrible.
The direction, look at the producer...it's that Altman influence AGAIN!
Insufferable.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
Dorothy Parker remembers the heyday of the Algonquin Round Table, a circle of friends whose barbed wit, like hers, was fueled by alcohol and flirted with despair.
