"An ear for reproducing everyday language has long been David
Mamet's hallmark and he has now employed it to skewer the dogmatic,
puritannical streak which has become commonplace on and off the
campus. With Oleanna he continues an exploration of male-female
conflicts begun with Sexual Perversity in Chicago in 1974. Oleanna
cogently demonstrates that when free thought and dialogue are
imperilled, nobody wins." (Michael Wise, Independent) In Oleanna
"John and Carol go to it with hand-to hand combat that amounts to a
primal struggle for power. As usual with Mamet, the vehicle for
that combat is crackling, highly distilled dialogue unencumbered by
literary frills or phony theatrical ones." (Frank Rich,
International Herald Tribune)
