misbegotten

1 Few productions have been as cataclysmic as Oliver Putnam’s “Death Rattle Dazzle,” a misbegotten gothic about murderous infants, re-conceived as a glittery musical.

2 Say this for the wildly misbegotten number: It had nothing of the musical craft of any of the nominated albums, but it had the charming dedication to the tackiness of 1989.

3 Critical interpretation like this is a mug's game, of course, doomed as any misbegotten fan's attempt to corral Cervantes and Shakespeare into the same frame.

4 Until now, the narrative has been a misbegotten tangle.

5 Afterwards it strikes me what that movie is, and I reel out of the cinema like a suitor at the end of a misbegotten date.

我蹒跚着走出影院，如同经历蹩脚的约会后的求婚者一般。

6 The book “vividly evokes an especially ugly moment half a century ago, when the misbegotten Vietnam War and a malformed notion of patriotism combined volatilely,” our reviewer Clyde Haberman writes.

7 The letter was drafted partially in response to what some viewed as a misbegotten effort by George Clooney and other A-listers to help SAG-AFTRA move negotiations along, according to strike captain Kate Bond.

8 Yet Mr. Cannavale, one review said, was “a hairy life force of an actor who improves even misbegotten shows.”

9 What about when the outrage over a misbegotten joke — like what happened with Kathy Griffin — ends up ostracizing a performer?

10 The central characters in the misbegotten criminal scheme are teenagers rather than adults, and suffer a bit from the self-aware and slightly detached cultural savvy of Tarantino’s overly talky people.

11 Yet the very first decisions are whether the story itself is fundamentally misbegotten, whether the mode of production is original or imitative, whether the movie is worth making at all.

12 Despite all the misbegotten adaptations of his works, King is most famous for detesting what Kubrick did with “The Shining,” a film many would rank among the scariest of all time.

13 Now, Biel said, people look at the Titanic sinking and other man-made disasters as technological hubris, the misbegotten belief that something could be too good, too fail-safe to fail.

14 Two books trace the origins of IS to America’s misbegotten invasion to topple Saddam Hussein in Iraq in 2003, the subsequent Sunni backlash against the newly enfranchised Shias and the appalling civil war in Syria.

15 Yet even that is not enough to bring this misbegotten novel to life.

16 But the misbegotten search for original intentions has been in disfavor since Justice Antonin Scalia’s powerful critique of intentionalism.

17 “The few glimpses we catch of the Ford’s Theater production of ‘Our American Cousin’ are unfortunately the liveliest and most convincing moments in this well-meaning, misbegotten movie,” Mr. Scott wrote in The Times in April.

18 In previous films — notably “Life During Wartime,” a sequel of sorts to “Happiness,” and the heroically misbegotten “Palindromes” — Mr. Solondz has messed around with conventions of story and character.

19 Variety called it “the sort of misbegotten venture no amount of clever re-editing could hope to improve” while The Hollywood Reporter dubbed the telling ”relentlessly middlebrow mush.”

20 It’s less a missed opportunity than entirely misbegotten.
