One ILM poster friend of mine has noted previously that Mamet has an uncommon talent for finding ways to justify women getting slapped around in his movies/plays.

Nah, that's not true, but he does have a good half-dozen scripts with false rape accusations, and this story is a variation on that.

That said, I liked it. Lots of Pacino time.

Really? Two that come to mind off the top of my head:

The Verdict -- Charlotte Rampling gets "justifiably" slapped in a restaurant.

Oleana -- Bill Macy beats the crap out of the woman who falsely accuses him of rape.

Pretty sure there are others...
