Movie critique on the movie Jakes women from 1992 Review

Critique on the Jakes women from 1992 - Movie Review Example The good thing about the TV adaptation was that the technology allowed the director Glenn Jordan to extend a life like veracity to the essentially phantasmagoric nature of the imaginary and psychotic conversations of the central character Jake played by Alan Alda. As evident most of these conversations take place in Jake’s head, which are readily conveyed and managed with dissolves on the TV adaptation, which makes them more realistically perceivable as compared to the stage adaptation, which bothered by the expected constraints had to convey the concept by pulling off the characters imagined by Jake. However, the direction failed to grasp that the TV screen affords a much wider canvass that needs to be filled in by much movement, change of scenery and background, over dramatization of action and emotion to make the overall impact more gripping and interesting for the audience. In that context, the movie was a big failure. Though the performance by Alan Alda was almost flawles s, yet the direction left much to be desired.
