Oh gosh, not another American Buffalo.
The dialogue in Oleanna, which barely made any money, is incomprehensible and stagy. I'm surprised sex
harassment is thrown around so much because nothing happened. It's just pseudo-intellectual talk with tons of fake
acting. Hence, the deeper I dive into his oeuvre, the more clear it is that David Mamet is a hit-or-miss director.
No, no, no...I don't want to see William H. Macy in anything. I can't believe he got the lead role for this craptacular
picture, and he needs to work on his line delivery more. Although pretty, Debra Eisenstadt never acted again.
All in all, instead of Oleanna, you should take a look at Disclosure with Michael Douglas and Demi Moore.
