Amid all the (deserved) hoopla for Netflix’s “The Queens Gambit,” there’s one character who is often overlooked: Mr. Shaibel, the janitor who sparks the chess obsession in our young heroine. But Bill Camp’s performance understated, taciturn and, in the end, generous is as critical as any of the leads. That’s part of Camp’s talent: No matter where the Massachusetts native turns up including “News of the World,” filmed with wife Elizabeth Marvel, and HBO’s “The Outsider” he makes his contribution, whatever size, essential. Armed with a SAG nomination for his “Gambit” role, Camp dialed in from lockdown in Vermont to talk with The Envelope about his own Mr. Shaibel, overcoming his competitiveness and bribing his son.
Based on: “Emma” by Jane Austen, 1815
Verdict: While it doesn’t match “Clueless” for sheer wit and invention, Catton’s delightfully arch adaptation gets a lot of fresh comic mileage out of well-worn material and benefits, like all “Emma” adaptations, from Austen’s most ingeniously constructed story. Justin Chang
