‘The Actor’ Review: ‘Anomalisa’ Co-Director’s Muddled Donald E. Westlake Adaptation Loses the Plot

Ryan Swen It can be difficult to step out of the shadow of a creative collaborator, which Duke Johnson does fitfully with “The Actor,” his first live-action theatrical feature. Though Johnson has had a steady career for close to two decades, principally in stop-motion animation for television, he is perhaps best known for co-directing “Anomalisa” with Charlie Kaufman. A full decade later, Kaufman (who serves as an executive producer on “The Actor”) still has a marked influence on Johnson’s solo directorial debut, though it is awkwardly grafted onto a noir-inflected tale — based on the novel “Memory” by Donald E.

Dennis Harvey Film Critic As populations’ median ages continue to rise — and the future looks increasingly hazardous for allage groups — more movies are touching on senility, dementia, elder abuse and other topics that not long ago rarely got any screen airing.
