Review of Homicide (1991) by Hal Hinson for Washington Post — 09 Jun 2001
David Mamet's Homicide is a brilliant muddle: compelling, exhilarating and, at the same time, profoundly dubious. Certainly there is greatness in it. And just as certainly the moral ice it skates on is precariously thin.
It leads us into a forest of dark contradictions, then leaves us stranded, dazzled but bewildered, elated but perplexed.
