"Lucida Sans Unicode";mso-hansi-font-family:"Gentium Basic"">“Any shrewd chap
who finds his artist girlfriend has a video-camera in the bedroom to film the
cut and thrust of their sexual action might well fear he was destined to end up
as her artistic fodder. But in THE SHAPE OF THINGS, Neil LaBute’s absolutely
chilling report from the sex war’s frontline, where stratagems for sexual
humiliations are planned, Adam, the shy chap concerned, takes the video-camera,
so to speak, lying down. LaBute, the remarkable American movie director and
playwright whose film IN THE COMPANY OF MEN showed a sexually unappealing woman
exploited by two vengeful pretend lovers, now returns to this theme. This time
it’s a man who’s the victim of female guile…LaBute meticulously plans that the
shocking, climatic revelations should cast dark light upon his apparently
average people.” Nicholas de Jongh, The Standard</span></p>
