...know what you're thinking. But I'm not a tree-hugging greenie! And most Americans aren't. In fact, this false image of environmentalism is why the cause has suffered so much over the past decade...
...girl he used to drive around (Bello), and there's the obligatory we-should-have-sex shtick, though in his state, we wonder why sex is even on his mind. God love Maria Bello, but the whole relationship is unconvincing, the hood and the hooker sitting in a tree... The whole scenario is a waste of screen time that could be put to better use by Lucy Liu, legal eagle by prime time, dial-a-dominatrix in this celluloid romp. She deliciously performs her duties on Porter's ex-partner and is even called upon to give Porter some...

While not quite the revisionist breakthrough some have hailed it (a 1996 production at London's National Theatre, the stage dominated by a broken tree, departed similarly from naturalistic convention), it reminds us of how influential the play has been stylistically. Seemingly every third play that appears these days, from Golden Child to Side Man, features some kind of time-traveling device, mixing past and present, fantasy and reality--thanks, at least in part...
