In the press line for Polanski’s Carnage (which will open the festival). And then, blessedly, into the theatre.

#1 on my list! What a CAST!
I am a little frightened by all those burgeoning Audrey II’s. PLEASE be careful, Sheila.
Kent – It’s so fucking great. I saw the original Broadway production – and could not wait to see what Polanski would do with it. Review going up sometime later today. HEAVEN.
So glad to hear! Further proof of your theory of the indomitable creative spirit!
Totally. Recognizably Polanski in the brilliance of his framing – every shot perfect, eloquent, weird – but also full of surprises. Hilarious.
