Critic's Choice background

Critic's Choice

A struggling critic must navigate the moral dilemma of reviewing his wife's debut play, risking the very foundation of his marriage, while also grappling with the consequences of keeping his opinion silent.

Parker Ballantine, a renowned New York theater critic, faces a conflict of interest when his wife Angie, a devoted and faithful partner, writes an autobiographical play about her childhood. Despite Parker's initial disdain, Angie is determined to get the play produced to prove him wrong. As the production progresses, Parker's professional duty as a critic clashes with his personal relationship with Angie, leading to questions about whether he will remain honest in his review and whether their marriage can survive the outcome.
