movie review - Albino Alligator

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 1997.07.23

The "directorial debut" of the fellow from Swimming With Sharks, Seven, and The Usual Suspects. You know. Won some awards. Kevin Spacey! Anyway, this was WAY over directed. Everything was wooden and stilted, and the camera director was doing every fancy trick ever dreamed of. Pretty disappointing.

Not recommended.
