Whoa. Teen Center nurse Patti Towle admits she was taken aback by the inquiry. She couldn't exactly provide a road map. Even more, the destination was a bit scandalous for a couple of ninth-graders in the heart of Mormon country.

Mamet's clipped, macho, Ping-Pong dialogue still has a good deal of satiric punch. ("How's Laurie?" "Fine." "Yeah, but how is she, though?") Scott Zigler has directed with haunting spareness. And the acting is top-notch, particularly Patti LuPone, feisty and funny as Jolly. But raiding the memory bank has made Mamet lazy.
