Sean McKittrick Interview
One From The Vault
THE PLAYER (1992)
Adapted by Michael Tolkin from his eponymous novel, the script is part suspense/satire, as a young studio exec becomes the chief suspect in a murder investigation. The story has as much to say about the sordid dealings of the film industry as it does about a man's crime and punishment guilt. Tolkin pulls major coup in making this callous exec not only sympathetic, but almost heroic. He cleverly plays into the audience's innate desire for the criminal to get away with the crime.
