Title: Pretentious and dull
Review: After reading John Leake's book on Unterweger, I was eager to see Malkovich's treatment. Mistake. If one doesn't know anything about Unterweger, I think it would only be worse. No context or background is really given, and there is a lot of overwrought emoting and rather silly behaviour by the actor. The orchestra and singers are all competent, but the musical choices weren't enlightening, nor did they add anything to the story or M's performance. Very disappointed. I recommend you skip this one.
