And while I enjoyed Neil LaBute's In the Company of Men for its amazing trio of performances, it's true that the film itself was little more than a rigged stunt--David Mamet Lite.
More to the point, Mamet can have himself a whale of a time directing a series of civilized confrontations that escalate in importance--from the young man who asks Winslow senior for his daughter's hand in marriage (and the precise amount of her dowry) to a cunning barrister, Sir Robert Morton (Jeremy Northam), who uses every rhetorical trick he can think of to wear down a Parliament weary of a twopenny schoolboy scandal.
Who'd have thought that Mamet was secretly in love with the well-carpentered, '40s and '50s drawing-room plays of the terribly English Terence Rattigan, whom the Angry Young Men of the late '50s loutishly blew off the boards--thus paving the way for Mamet's expletive-laced theater games?
Clearly, this is what gets Mamet through the night.
For Mamet, however, the core of the piece is Winslow's daughter, a snootily progressive ingénue and a suitable romantic foil for the conservative Morton.
