Review of W. (2008) by David Denby for New Yorker — 19 Oct 2008
Richard Dreyfuss, hunching over and baring his teeth like a shark cruising off a Martha's Vineyard beach, does a wicked impersonation of Cheney. His relish for the part suggests that the movie should have been done not as an earnest bio-pic but as a satirical comedy -- as a contemporary "Dr.
Strangelove," with a cast of satyrs and clowns.
