SYNOPSIS
Actor Mark Metcalf made his reputation playing aggrieved authority figures, most famously in National Lampoon’s Animal House directed by John Landis and Buffy the Vampire Slayer directed by Fran Rubel. Now in his 70s, he takes a critical look back on his life and career in this meditation on power, privilege, and the perils of being a “type.”
