Title: A Great Play!
Product review: I couldn't put this play down when I read it, and then I was so interested in it I watched all four hours of the 1973 film version! It's hard to believe the play takes place so early in the twentieth century when its relevance has not diminished. It is a stunning portrait of addiction and the self-deception that so often accompanies it. It's tragic, but it's also hilarious in many parts. I don't think you will ever forget the characters, they're so colorful and interesting. It's like Long Day's Journey into night, but far more fun. (Ok, that's not saying much, but this IS actually a lot of fun! All the depressing drunkenness of Long Day's Journey, but lots of laughs, too!)
