Review of ROGER DODGER
"Roger Dodger leaves all possible pretense of the softer nature of its main character behind in the opening scene, and it only falters slightly near the end when it attempts to reconcile him with the past. In the scene, Roger Swanson (Scott Campbell) conducts a discourse on the future evolution and eventual uselessness of the male gender with a group of his fellow employees at a restaurant. This is a man in love with words and particularly the ways in which he can use them to capture the attention of anyone and everyone in the room. What he has to say makes sense—mostly due to his delivery and diction—but what’s more important is that he believes it. He can’t help but believe it. We know he believes it too. That’s what makes him so fascinating a subject. Here’s a man who genuinely believes that men are around only for as long as their usefulness holds out, and damn it if he’s not going to take full advantage of the time that’s been given him."
