Review of Mother Night (1996) by Teem K — 29 Oct 2008
Watchable but unsatisfying adaptation about a convicted Nazi-American war criminal recalling his personal life. Interesting casting choices, particularly Goodman as the Blue Fairy Godmother, but overall strikes the wrong tone and misses the wonderful absurdity and gallows humour that made the novel so brilliant.
