Review of Risky Business (1983) by Dave Kehr for Chicago Reader — 15 Jul 1994
Taking off from the format of a typical teenage sex comedy, Brickman deepens the characters and tightens the situations, filming them in a dark, dreamlike style full of sinuous camera movements and surrealistic insinuations.
Brickman found a tone I hadn't encountered previously - one of haunting, lyrical satire.
