FIGURE OF EIGHT

Schirner has the kind of voice and diction that makes listening easy. In Lynch's thriller about the search for a serial celebrity stalker who is terrorizing a champion ice dancer, there are a lot of twists in character and plot. As each leg of the story unravels, one begins to suspect almost every character of evil-doing--including the hero and heroine. Schirner's clear, distinctive phrasing makes one listen with anticipation. Even as he skates from character to character, there's a quality to Schirner's voice that keeps one attentive. For technical ability, Schirner's narration gets a 9.5. His artistic score is 10. A.L.H. © AudioFile 2000, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN/JUL 00]
