Greg Kinnear

Greg Kinnear plays a real television star, Bob Crane, falling from a reputation as a clean family man into disgrace, in Paul Schrader's Auto Focus. In the month's featured review Schrader is counted a director without equal in the biographical film, and this work is named a taut example of the kind. Another piece, by Mark Olsen, introduces him through the mainstream success that came with As Good as It Gets and counts him one of the brightest young actors of contemporary Hollywood. In a third piece Philip Kemp declares a part of his in a film that never entered our catalogue the best role of his career so far, and says the director drew finely tuned performances out of his cast.
