Review of Being There (1979) by Thomas R — 27 Nov 2011
Hal Ashby's cultural criticism of class division in late 20th C Washington DC achieves an powerful viciousness attainable only through saying almost nothing at all. Through Chance Gardener, a walking, mumbling mirror to the world, Ashby exposes how far people will go to justify the world around an image they understand.
