Review: Misery loves company at the Gladstone Theatre
I attended the preview of Misery this week with low expectations. I had just rewatched the 1990 film adaptation and was blown away yet again by Kathy Bates’ performance. I didn’t think anyone could match her manic energy. I’m happy to report that I was mistaken. The cast rose to the challenge, playing up the movie’s dark humour while staying faithful to Stephen King’s novel’s twisted source material.
