		The albinos are found in the same nest every year and are believed to be produced from the same male and female who both carry the recessive gene for albinism, said David Kledzik, curator of reptiles in St. Augustine.

	Review: Albino Alligator (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Albino Alligator, the directorial debut of 1996's Best Supporting Oscar winner, Kevin Spacey, is a cagey, claustrophobic noir thriller highlighted by a few clever plot twists, some nicely- honed dialogue, and a half-dozen top-notch performances.
		The core of Albino Alligator is atmosphere and dialogue.
		Albino Alligator doesn't flow as smoothly as it might; there are times when it surges forward, and other instances when it drags a little.

		"Albino Alligator" is a movie about three thieves that take a few people at a New Orleans bar hostage.

		"Albino Alligator" is a pretty good movie, especially when you consider that it was the first movie that Kevin Spacey directed.

	Total Film - Albino Alligator
		An albino alligator, it turns out, is the sacrificial member of the ’gator group, the reckless reptile who acts as a decoy for rival packs to smack while his ravenous pals counter-attack from the rear.
		Albino Alligator is a failure then, but a promising one — and don’t be surprised if Spacey delivers a masterpiece next time out.
		Albino Alligator starts promisingly enough — with a zingy, attempted-robbery-followed-by-police-in-hot- pursuit drama — then settles into an intriguing hostage situation at a New Orleans bar.

		The selection at the video rental shop seemed unusually dreary, so I focused on ALBINO ALLIGATOR for the simple reason that Faye Dunaway was in the cast, and I hadn't seen her in awhile.
		ALBINO ALLIGATOR is the directorial debut of Kevin Spacey, an actor of considerable talent.
		Furthermore, the "albino alligator" reference, ostensibly a ruse by which alligators send out an albino to flush out foes, had absolutely no application in the storyline.

	Albino Alligator - MOVIE REVIEW - Los Angeles Times - calendarlive.com
		"Albino's" hotel is Dino's Bar, its Key Largo is modern New Orleans, and the storm keeping everyone inside, mixing the combustible elements of swindlers, sociopaths and frightened hostages, is the swarm of ATF agents--G-men!--who think they have a gunrunner cornered.
		Once the three men have limped inside Dino's, "Albino Alligator" becomes a very tight character drama, with the gang members bickering among themselves over the fate of their hostages.
		The title "Albino Alligator" comes from a legend, laboriously recalled by Law, about the habit of alligators to sacrifice weaker members of their own group in order to trap and destroy their rivals.

	DVD Verdict Review - Albino Alligator
		A remarkable directorial debut by exceptional actor Kevin Spacey, Albino Alligator is an actor's movie, where a weak story about a botched burglary is overshadowed by a stellar cast.
		I had never heard of Albino Alligator before I received this review copy, but when I saw that one of my most favorite actors was the director, and that the cast was full of other well-loved actors and actresses, I knew that this would be worth my time.
		Albino Alligator is very much a character drama, and I would strongly recommend that this be on the viewing list of aspiring actors.

	Albino Alligator
		Spacey's tale of a hold-up gone wrong presented many challenges that even a seasoned film composer might have found daunting -- much of the character-driven thriller takes place in one room -- but Michael was successful in creating the disquieting music appropriate to the film's portrayal of raw nerves and bungled plans.
		Rather than a typical score album, which leaves a listener feeling that something is missing at the core of the enterprise, Albino Alligator -- as musically augmented for CD -- showcases both this unusual film and the work of Michael Brook in the best possible light.
		His current scoring project, Albino Alligator, functions as a summation of Michael's artistic progress to date, while opening the door to new possibilities.

	Albino Alligator \| The A.V. Club
		In concept, Albino Alligator is a promising endeavor: The story, in which three crooks find themselves holed up in an after-hours bar with five hostages, recalls classic American film noir like Key Largo, and combines it with a contemporary take on violence and loyalty.
		But that material is booby-trapped with clichés on one side and embarrassing artistic pretensions on the other: Christian Forte's screenplay sets up some potentially interesting relationships, but then relies on mechanical plot twists to reveal them; the movie aims for moral complexity and comes up with garden-variety cynicism.
		Albino Alligator has a good look to it, and many one-on-one scenes work well.

		The crooks are likely to be too scared, too inarticulate or too confused for the kind of verbal jockeying that occupies most of ``Albino Alligator.'' The enterprise seems contrived--more like an actors' workshop than a drama.
		I will not be giving away plot secrets if I describe at this point the albino alligator connection.
		According to an anecdote told in the movie, alligators force an albino to go out first, in order to flush out the opposition, after which they pounce from ambush.
