Reviews for The Belly of An Architect
There's a good deal here to relish, even if the piece as a whole eventually descends into the same hermetic serialism of motifs that has consumed most of Greenaway's pictures.
Brian Dennehy gives a towering performance as a middle-aged architect in Rome on a special project that becomes an obsession.
The most telling parallel is that between Kracklite, with his perpetual stomach upset, and director Greenaway: Both are pretentious gasbags.
