Circus
Reading Christopher Bram's Lives of the Circus Animals right now ... it's about the theater world, but much of it applies to the film business as well. It's a good read and I'm enjoying the intertwined plot, for all that it feels a bit contrived, but I'm finding the character of Kenneth Prager, the theater critic, to be very maudlin, both in his own self-awareness and self-criticism of the role he plays and his assessment of the other players -- a playwright, his therapist, other "lesser" critics (a stab at old versus new media?). Kind of depressing.
