 | | I might be apocryphally attributing this to Pauline Kael, but I'm fairly confident that it was she who said there's no such thing as bad acting, only bad casting. |
 | | When people hear that John McNaughton's Normal Life stars Luke Perry and Ashley Judd, they tend to lose interest, but to quote another of my favourite critics, Alex Jackson, "a great performance incorporates and molds a persona. |
 | | Like the corrosive Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, McNaughton's feature debut, the picture pulls a bait-and-switch of sorts, promising through a sensationalistic prologue a penny-dreadful only to shine a flashlight between the lurid details and watch something truly unseemly skitter out. |
