Heads and The Secret Life of Chairman Mao reviewed on Showtime and A E
Review notes a mixed reaction to Heads a black comedy with Jon Cryer and Ed Asner and to The Secret Life of Chairman Mao a PBS special. Heads struggles with tonal balance and uneven acting while Mao biography offers surprising context about Mao’s public life and his fear of successors.
