"The inner life of Martin Frost reeks of misogyny and the film that enshrines his egomania makes half-assed aspirations to Goethe." - Ed Gonzalez

Auster has some talent when it comes to directing, with a slightly Lynchian sensibility even if he's much too fond of voiceovers. He's got a good cast in Thewlis, Jacob and Imperioli, and the story itself is rather subtly told and never crawls as far up its own solipsist ass as Travels In The Scriptorium did. But as enjoyable as it is, I still can't help but think that it would be nice if Auster ever gets back to telling stories that aren't just stories about a writer trying to tell a story.
