Just finished watching Shopgirl. It was fairly disappointing. Some barely there performances from Clare Danes and Steve Martin - Martin doing a Bill Murray in Broken Flowers inpersonation in parts. Danes virtually telephoned her performance in but then I’ve been disappointed in her recently. After all this is the woman who had the chance to destroy Ben Lee’s musical career by breaking his heart and reducing him to a broken, suicidal mess. Instead we get Catch My Disease. For shame Clare. Jason Schwartzman makes some effort to redeem things but seems to have little to work with in between bouts of what appeared to be Lithium-fueled facial expressions. Overall annoying, especially as Martin’s book was quite good.
