Albino Alligator

DIRECTED BY: Kevin Spacey

REVIEWED: 05-28-97

Actor Kevin Spacey of The Usual Suspects fame directs his first movie, a paint-by-numbers, one-set-only hostage thriller about a passel of screw-up thieves (including Matt Dillon and Gary Sinise) hiding out in a Louisiana bar full of patrons (including Faye Dunaway and Skeet Ulrich). The acting is appropriately intense, but the claustrophobic, coincidence-heavy plot feels more like an actor's studio exercise than a proper film noir story.
