...gift that comes "from deep within me," eschewing any deeper analysis of his motivation. If not laden with intellectual insights, his statements frequently posses a quiet eloquence. When someone suggests that his plays convey no messages but are simply laugh riots, he replies that light-heartedness can express a deeper meaning.

The lighting is wild, when it is not harsh, the better to illuminate wasted faces. The dialogue is sometimes tough, sometimes fantastical. People struggle to express their pathetic rationalizations for what they are doing and their equally pathetic dreams of escape. But Schrader never seems to get beyond his own shock; he keeps having Scott get beaten over the head with more horrors. The material finally becomes repetitive and boring, and no amount of frenzied technique...
