John Patrick Shanley the writer should never again hire John Patrick Shanley the director.

rotten:
John Patrick Shanley's Doubt left me less moved than querulously dissatisfied despite the impressive performances of Meryl Streep, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Adams, and Viola Davis in all the key roles.

Empathy is one of the dramatist's slyest weapons and Shanley uses it wisely.
