Review of The Royal Tenenbaums (2001) by Anthony Lane for The New Yorker — 07 Mar 2013
Hackman gives the con-man lines a simple, straight-ahead urgency that makes the man first hilarious and then, as the pleasures of human company are withdrawn and his resentment begins to bubble up, inexplicably touching. This is a great performance.
