askance

Y
D

–adverb

2. with a side glance; sidewise; obliquely.

Synonyms:

Glass's enabler, the late Michael Kelly (Hank Azaria), is portrayed as a tough but tender, much beloved two-fisted editor. Missing is Kelly's near pathological loathing of Clinton, fed by Glass with bogus pieces on imaginary anti-Clinton committees, Monica Lewinsky brand condoms, and—published in George—a scurrilous hatchet job on Clinton crony Vernon Jordan. 

Although the movie is dedicated to Kelly's memory, the real hero is his successor, Chuck Lane (Peter Sarsgaard), who, terminally depressed, [looks] askance—literally—at Glass's copy and sighs, "It's weird." Lane served as a paid consultant to the movie and is understandably more sympathetic on-screen than his equivalent in the roman à clef for which Glass received a six-figure advance. 

Still, the Sarsgaard slow burn is only marginally more compelling than the Christensen simper; like its subject, the movie is self-important yet insipid.
