- Excerpt: [Lowery] and cowriter Toby Halbrooks show an obvious affinity for the themes Malcolm Marmorstein’s 1977 script possessed rather than its comedy and fearlessly usher their vision into the 21st century with full hearts and infinite imagination. [They’re] keenly aware of how four decades have changed our collective consciousness, paring things down to their emotional core before building them back up from there.
