Review of The Quick and the Dead (1995) by Jeff Giles for Newsweek — 20 May 2015
As preposterous as the plot was, there was never a line of Hackman dialogue that didn't sound as if he believed it. The same can't be said, alas, for Sharon Stone, who apparently believed that if she played her character as silent, still, impassive and mysterious, we would find that interesting.
More swagger might have helped.
