91Acting doesn't get more personal, or much greater.
-
80A wonderfully eccentric piece of filmmaking -- to demand it cohere to formula would be to miss the point.
-
50Duvall missteps in trying to mesh suspense with a love story that also involves the woman (Kathy Baker) John J. lives with and her young daughter (Katherine Micheaux Miller), on whom he disturbingly dotes.
-
30Assassination Tango is Duvall's fourth, yet it still feels like a first film; worse yet, it feels like a waste of an undeniably great actor.
