Reviewing it in today’s NYT, under the headline, “Sexy Drug Dealers Have Parents, Too,” Janet Maslin says Winslow “tantalizingly divides his story between two generations: the original main characters, and the 1960s hippies who spawned them.”
Maslin was a major fan of Savages, including it in her list of the “Top 10 Books of 2010“; its only Best Books nod that year. About the movie, she is concerned whether it “can sustain Mr. Winslow’s heavenly understatement without drowning in the violence of drug warfare.”
