Review of The Spanish Prisoner (1997) by Nicholas R — 26 Jan 2010
By now, it should be obvious that my Mamet reviews are going to contain high praise, so I should save some space and just say that this is another work of genius.
Furthermore, Steve Martin is the best reason to see this. He plays a creepy and mysterious businessman. Steve Martin, a dramatic role. Yes. You heard me right...and he is the most perfectly cast out of all the actors. If Mamet took a risk letting Martin play against type, it pays off tenfold for the audience.
