Review of A Dry White Season (1989) by Sheila Benson for Los Angeles Times — 01 Jun 2002
A tract, a dry rerun of Cry Freedom, with none of that film's visual sweep (whatever else its faults) and with nothing new to tell us. It's filled with obvious, earnest performances--Marlon Brando's ironic and subtle one is the only exception--and unresonant writing.
