One ringy dingy.
Anyone who doubts that people are as easily programmable as Pavlov’s pets need look no further Graham Bell’s little box. While most of us generally don’t start salivating at the sound of a ringing phone, few people (unless they work for a software help desk) can resist the urge to answer one. Pray that the darkest force that dials your number is a telemarketer.

For Stu Shephard, sincerity is little more than a fuzzy concept. A shady publicist, his life consists of spinning interconnecting webs of lies to further the careers of clients and raise his stature. In his spare time he enjoys abusing his assistant, and ignoring his wife. Stu is, is also determined to give an impressionable young actress a test run on the casting couch. When he enters the one functioning pay phone in a ten-block radius in the hopes of setting up a liaison, the phone rings. It turns out to be Stu’s conscience on the line. With a sniper rifle aimed at Stu’s head.

When you take into account that `Phone Booth’ was filmed in just ten days, on a limited budget with a dearth of special effects, one principle actor and a single venue you could be forgiven for questioning the potential success of this film. The original November 2001 release date might give one pause – films that sit on the shelf usually do so for a reason – read `straight to video’. In this instance the studio wanted to wait until Farrell was more familiar to moviegoers. He achieved this with a little film called `Minority Report’ (the name of his co-star escapes me at the moment…). `Phone Booth’s’ new release date had to be pushed back once again after the sniping episodes in Washington. Some things are worth the wait.

While he stole the spotlight as the maniacal hit man in `Daredevil’, Farrell is faced with a different animal in `Phone Booth’, an 80-minute soliloquy which lives or dies on his performance (several A-list stars walked away from the project for this very reason). Reminiscent of his much-lauded turn in `Tigerland’, Farrell confirms that he isn’t a one trick pony, proffering a wide-ranging display of emotions, from cocky to cathartic without straying into soap opera or comic territory. He delivers his lines with a solid fluidity rare among his peers, no simple feat when one takes into account that he’s suppressing a harsh brogue. Farrell also demonstrates a presence, beyond mere charisma – his good looks can only inspire interest for so long – that draw the viewer into the story.

While the supporting cast – Katie Holmes as the naive ingenue and Forrest Whitaker as the good cop – fulfill their purpose, it is Keifer Sutherland who takes up what little slack there is. While the audience doesn’t get to see Sutherland, he is amply menacing as the cold, otherworldly voice on the other end of the phone. The audience is never privy to who he is (`Just call me Bob’) or what his motives are, but it is inconsequential – he sees all, knows all, and is clearly in charge. Unlike S&M, there are no safe words. And for a control freak like Stu nothing could be more terrifying.

Although tied to a static location, deft camera work provides action, perspective and mood with such techniques as quick pans, compressed zooming, and picture in picture sequences, while careful not to cross the gimmickry line . Enhanced sound editing bolsters the visuals: ringing phones are jarring, Bob’s quietly booming voice is unsettling, and the sound of a round being chambered is deafening.

`Phone Booth’ could easily have been a quirky novelty flick that played well amongst the art house set. Thanks to Farrell’s performance it makes for good mainstream cinema (normally an oxymoron) and may actually make a few top ten lists.
