...complex characters should certainly be commended. The set, conceived by the director in collaboration with Rachel D. Libeskind ’11, was pleasing to look at but did not comfortably mesh with the actual tone of the play. White drapes along the wall and white lace coverings over the furniture and plants perfectly create the starkness of an asylum. The lighting, designed by Michael W.

The villain of Legal Eagles is a pathological firebug, and Reitman tries to play it like Arson and Old Lace. (He punctuates this theme with a performance- art piece by Hannah so bizarre it could empty movie houses quicker than a bomb threat.) Which leaves the top two stars to their own considerable resources of charm and mother wit. Redford looks terrific, and has honed his stutter-step diction into...
