Contrary to the review published above, I saw this film at its premiere showing at the Film Forum in New York, and found it fascinating and exciting. The film was a riveting documentation of the organic artistic process in the theater. The film is far from a commercial for Sam Shepard - on the contrary, it demonstrates in part, the difficulty he had managing his volatile but brilliant cast for the production of his strange, fascinating play, The Late Henry Moss. Good for anyone in the theater or any of the arts.

A "high-voltage Hollywood cast" (The Village Voice) featuring Academy Award(r) winner* Sean Penn and Oscar(r) nominees** Nick Nolte and Woody Harrelson offers up an exclusivelook into the rehearsal process in this "nakedly personal work" (LA Weekly) filmed during the mounting of a Sam Shepard play. It's three weeks until Shepard's The Late Henry Moss opens at the Magic Theatre in San Francisco and tensions are rising between Penn, Nolte and Harrelson. As sparks begin to fly between their characters, they set off a powder keg of emotions so explosive that the actors themselves are drawn into the fray.*2003: Actor, Mystic River**Nolte: Actor, Affliction (1998); Actor, The Prince of Tides (1991); Harrelson: Actor, The People vs. Larry Flynt (1996)
