Title: DEBRA EISENSTADT IS WRETCHEDLY BAD
Review: I'm not going to add my voice to the conversation about what Mamet wanted to convey, one way or the other. I just wanted to make very clear my very strong opinion--Debra Eisenstadt is an ATROCIOUS actress. I know Mamet directed the movie (and I love THINGS CHANGE and HOUSE OF GAMES) but why he cast Eisenstadt is a bigger mystery than the one at the center of THE SPANISH PRISONER. She is so inept, devoid of any kind of ability to be natural--which is how Mamet writes; naturalistically. STYLISHLY naturalistic, but still--it's supposed to flow like real speech. And she is stiff and has no sense of the rhythm of the dialogue. She is flat and affectless...simply put, she SUCKS. By the end of the movie, no matter what side of the argument you fall on, you want to beat the SH-T out of her just because she CAN'T ACT.
