Let’s talk about Richard Linklater, the man who just doesn’t seem to care what you think. Or, to be more specific, what his critics think. And that’s a good thing. How else could an unknown director make a film like 1991’s Slacker (a radical experiment in form, with crazily eclectic subject matter), parlay it into the high school comedy Dazed and Confused (a much more conventional structure, though still concerned primarily with dialogue) and then tackle a beautifully sweet and sensitive love story in Before Sunrise (an audacious narrowing of focus to two people and one night)?

After spending the last decade offering fare as diverse as rotoscoped sci-fi dirge A Scanner Darkly, yellow-journalism parable Fast Food Nation, a remake of nostalgic kids’ romp Bad News Bears and Jack Black comedy School of Rock, Linklater’s latest, Orson Welles And Me, is just as captivating and surprising as should be expected. In the period piece, Zac Efron plays an aspiring actor thrust into the world of egomaniacal showman Orson Welles, who, at 22, was directing and starring in “Julius... read more
