Life in a Glass House - a short film by Austin McKinley
http://www.lifeinaglasshousefilm.com/story.html
A deep-space miner (Mike Kradlak) awakes on a desolate alien world more than a mile from his base. His radio is missing, and he has only nineteen minutes of oxygen left in his suit. Against all odds, he struggles across the rugged landscape and makes it back to the compound, only to discover he can't get inside because the base computer has him listed as dead! Life in a Glass House.

Critic on the Run: January 2011
http://sarasotacritic.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Critic on the Run. Friday, January 21, 2011. Boeing Boeing' takes off. When it’s done right, of course. The Asolo Rep’s current production of Boeing Boeing. Does it right. Greg Leaming directs and really gets the rhythms of the comic music down. And cracks the whip of dominance in a Lili Von Shtupp/Marlena Deitrich sense. (I suspect this reflects the deep trauma the French endured in W.W. II) Herrero is excellent as the maid — the eye at the center of the hurricane — the sane pers...As said, I love farce...

Critic on the Run: Clouds of Sils Maria
http://sarasotacritic.blogspot.com/2015/05/clouds-of-sils-maria.html
Critic on the Run. Friday, May 15, 2015. Clouds of Sils Maria. This is a very clever movie. Heartfelt as well. I should also mention honest. Very truthful, right. Also closely observed. It captures the way people talk now, the 21st century's ubiquitous demi-cyberspace of cellphones and tablets, the nuts-and-bolts of an actor's craft, the rarefied world of an A-list actor, and on top of that it's got lots of really nice Swiss scenery. But? Good stuff, right? Hey, you could take this movie and teach a clas...

Critic on the Run: 2BRN02B
http://sarasotacritic.blogspot.com/2011/10/2brn02b.html
Critic on the Run. Friday, October 14, 2011. Submitted, for your consideration, a production of Hamlet. By the Wooster Group—a group famed for experimental theater. This production at the Ringling International Arts Festival was experimental indeed. Imagine—in some scenario out of Rossum’s Universal Robots. The Wooster Group's production of Hamlet. Very much like that. A performance of Hamlet by androids, directed by Max Headroom. T-t-t-trippingly on the tongue! Hey, that's entertainment, right? Hamlet s...

Critic on the Run: The Brothers Karamazov
http://sarasotacritic.blogspot.com/2011/11/brothers-karamazov.html
Critic on the Run. Thursday, November 3, 2011. Photo by Frank Atura. O Brother, Where Art Thou? Ignoring the glorious sun and sand, I spent one family vacation on Saint George Island cooped up inside a beach cottage reading big novels: Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead,. John Barth’s Giles Goat Boy. And Fyodor Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov. Etc Out on the sunny beach, my sister caught a Whiting and hollered with delight; inside the gloomy house, I crammed my head with literature. As to Karamazov. There a...

Critic on the Run: December 2011
http://sarasotacritic.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Critic on the Run. Tuesday, December 27, 2011. OSS: Nest of Spies. You want to make a spoof? Watch OSS #117. It’s like a film school course in cinematic satire. Watch it, see what it does, and don’t do it. It breaks all the rules of satire. I never knew satire had rules, until I saw this movie. Now I know. Here they are:. Rule #1. Know what you’re making fun of. Rule #2. Love what you’re making fun of. Check out Young Frankenstein. Rule #3. An imitation of bad art, if it’s bad, is just bad art. Mel Brook...
