   May 24, 2002 · A modern adaptation of Herman Melville's "Bartleby the Scrivener." While Parker and co-writer Catherine di Napoli are faithful to Melville’s plotline, they and a fully engaged supporting cast — have made the old boy's characters more quick-witted than any English Lit major would have thought possible.

   How long is Bartleby?

   • "Bartleby" is short for a feature film, at 82 minutes, but might have been more successful at 50 or 60 minutes. Too bad there seems to be an unbreakable rule against features that short, or short subjects that long. In a perfect world, "Bartleby" would establish the office and its workers, introduce Bartleby, develop response to the work, and stop.

   What would Bartleby prefer not to do?

What he prefers to do is stand in the center of the office with his neck cocked at an odd angle, staring at the ceiling.
