American Buffalo

Fri., Sep. 13, 1996 12:00 AM PDT

D
Watching the David Mamet-penned American Buffalo is like sitting through a beginner's acting class in which Hoffman is the guest of honor and Corrente is the acting coach who never made it big. As a fast-talking hustler who convinces his friend (Dennis Franz) to steal, Hoffman is out to show us how it's done, over-emphasizing every gesture, word and breath. Meanwhile, an awestruck Corrente laps it all up, throwing subtlety and discretion to the wind. These are nobody's finest hours.
