Critic’s Choice 1963
Parker Ballantine, a respected New York theater critic, faces a personal dilemma when his wife writes a new stage play. As the debut nears, he must choose whether to recuse himself from reviewing it to protect his marriage, or betray his professional integrity. The story humorously examines the clash between art, criticism and marital loyalty.
