Eyeballing McCarty
Continued from page 2
Published on February 02, 1995
"The only way in which he's sort of a savant is to write so beautifully about emotions, when as a person to be around and with, he can shock you with how much you are just an extra in his movie."
McCarty may be an extra in Johnston's movie, and you could look at Dead Dog's Eyeball as her cameo appearance in an otherwise sprawling epic, but what she does with her time on-screen focuses the picture and frames the shot. You wouldn't say she steals the scene -- though in some ways she does -- but rather that she allows Johnston himself to come across as more fully present than he can be on his own.Kathy McCarty opens for Jonathan Richman at 8 p.m., Thursday, February 2 at Rockefeller's. Tickets cost $8, $10 and $12.50. Call 869-8427 for info.
