Corner Pocket – Pool With A Side Of Everything
by Karen Tortora-Lee on October 13, 2011
Thinking about cheating on your wife? Maybe first you should take in Andy James Hoover’s Corner Pocket (directed by Bridget R. Durkin). After an evening of watching recently murdered professional pool player Glen O’Hara (James Liebman) juggle the ghost of the wife who is accused of murdering him (murdered herself soon after), his not-so-grieving girlfriend (who bounces back surprisingly fast), and the two sisters who work to make sense of his tragic ending (one wild and flaky, one ordered and logical) one can easily see that Glen might have been better off keeping his cue stick in his own pocket. Because nothing about what leads up to his chalk outline seems to have been worth it.
