Reseña del libro "Captain Freedom: Do Super-Heroes get Depressed? A Play (en Inglés)"
This is a humorous story about a young budding actor, Alan Finkelstein from Brooklyn, New York trying to make it big in movies. Unfortunately he is stuck making his living playing plastic vegetables in low brow TV commercials for local TV stations. Alan thinks he can do better than this. Unfortunately his pretty useless agent does not share Alan's aspirations. Alan begins the action by meeting and haranguing his agent, George Arthur Lewis, for not giving him the big parts he feels he is capable of. Alan does an impromptu impersonation of the famous ‘do you feel lucky punk’ scene from the film Dirty Harry. The young actor is also writing a script about a superhero which he feels is one way of moving up the movie ladder, preferably with him playing the central character, the super-hero Captain Freedom. However, George can only get him a part in a new burger commercial. At home, we meet Alan’s parents. The mother is supportive, helping him with his super-hero costume, his father dismissive of Alan’s acting ambitions. As the story unfolds, Alan begins to assume the persona of his super-hero alter-ego, Captain Freedom. The story is full of Alan’s playing of parts from famous films, not just Clint Eastwood. He also does Bogart and de Niro while his friend Jimmy makes do with bit parts in the latest Planet of the Apes blockbuster. Is Alan really a super-hero from the planet Zeldon or just a schizophrenic, out of work actor? This version of the story is in a play format with the added bonus of the short story also included. The short story version can also be found in the collection '10 Bloody Slices' by the same author.
