Rated Vanya on 42nd Street 6/10
I’ve never seen this play before (beyond the parts of it in drive my car) so this feels like a pretty straight ahead, if condensed probably, performance. The meta stuff is mostly just there although when the director walked in and told everyone to take a break I didn’t even notice that I started reviewing my notes immediately like the movie really was taking a break. You got me, Andre Dinnerwith. Speaking of, as a double feature with dinner with Andre it does feel like the sort of theatrical happening described in that film, although textually it’s just a rehearsal, the way it’s presented is like this whole play is being performed for like 12 people and us. Like dinner theatre in a crumbling art nouveau theatre-palace.Otherwise hard to review meaningfully as I am not very good at telling about plays, but Julianne Moore as a woman tired of being an object, (sex) for all the men in her life and an object, (hatred) for her step daughter and just trying to do, anything really, I found compelling.
