The Merry Gentleman - not so merry, but if you’re interested in this movie you’ll likely have picked up on the irony
The Merry Gentleman
Michael Keaton hasn’t done his career (once glowing huge with blockbusters like Batman and several classic comedies and dramadies) any favors since inexplicably taking on Jack Frost. But few actors are capable of being this smart, this funny, this watchable, this dark and eccentric on such a quiet, understated level (though he has certainly had his showboat numbers). He brings those same sensibilities to his directorial debut - a movie that brilliantly puts to use Chicago and a nice selection of her actors (most notably the great Guy Van Swearingen).
