Review of The Muse (1999) by Robin V — 31 Mar 2012
Albert Brooks' The Muse is definitely one of the best Hollywood satires in recent memory. Albert Brooks stars as a screenwriter who has has lost 'his edge". His friend tells him a well kept secret about a muse (Sharon Stone) who is turns out is pretty much responsible for all of the successes of Hollywood.
It a gentle satire, that keeps things rather gentile while creating a fun look into the like of an eccentric screenwriter. Sharon Stone gives one of her best performances as the droll muse, whose demanding ways begin to get on the nerves of Brooks.
Its not a hilarious comedy by any means buts its charming, witty and smart enough to entertain. Plus, it features some great cameos from Martin Scorsese, James Cameron, etc.
