Manhola Dargis reviews Errol Morris’s Standard Operating Procedure. This review lacks the same guarded optimism that her review of Tina Fey’s Baby Mama has. If you’re not reading Dargis’s reviews (regulary), there’s a link on the sidebar. She’s an excellent writer, an astute critic, and funny (in that dry, Will Strunk kind of way).
My thesis revolves around films and shows Morris has made that focus on one subject (namely, Temple Grandin and Robert McNamara, in separate films). I’m hoping to side-step the complications Dargis points out – a large cast of interviewees, in particular – in my analysis, but I don’t know if that’s possible. We’ll see!
