...review attributes "a near-perfect technical mastery" to Seth Carlin's playing. I, for one, could not judge his fingerwork, because of the overall blur his heavy footwork gave the music. And no clear overall understanding of the piece came through to redeem the technical haze...
...color tone point up an insert shot of villainous Burroughs, a close-up we later realize is imagined by Harwick (although neither he nor we have seen him before). Arriving at the sanitarium, Harwick looks warily out the car window, and Rooks cuts to his point-of-view: a blur of color suddenly coming into sharp focus revealing the chateau in an angle-shot accentuating its Castle Draculaaura.

After wobbling his camera in 60 or so pictures, demonstrating that film making is all in a flick of the wrist, could it be that, in his cinematic technique, Andy is finally going straight...
