具體描述
A sizzling drama of desire, avarice and deception set in the American Deep South, Tennessee Williams's Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is publish ed in Penguin Modern Classics.'Big Daddy' Pollitt, the richest cotton planter in the Mississippi Delta, is about to celebrate his sixty-fifth birthday. His two sons have returned home for the occasion: Gooper, his wife and children, Brick, an ageing football hero who has turned to drink, and his feisty wife Maggie. As the hot summer evening unfolds, the veneer of happy family life and Southern gentility gradually slips away as unpleasant truths emerge and greed, lies, jealousy and suppressed sexuality threaten to reach boiling point. Made into a film starring Elizabeth Taylor and Paul Newman, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is a masterly portrayal of family tensions and individuals trapped in prisons of their own making.

##很威廉姆斯啊……
評分##“Mendacity is a system that we live in. Liquor is one way out and death’s the other.”
評分##cat on a hot tin roof，好比喻也經不起反復用，靈氣受摺磨。 Broadway Version結局不如原版，強求人物發狠，突變太多。Williams的解釋是，"Brick should undergo some apparent mutation"，但想沒想過，醉鬼真的隻希望跪在爛攤子裏流點眼淚，他不要變，要酒。非把玻璃裂痕都熔瞭，捏作新玻璃，說這是人的崛起，之後再不會碎，以為這麼更聰明。殊不知最好的就是那一個碎，全毀瞭最聰明。
評分##Mendacity is a system that we live in. Liquor is one way out an' death's the other……
評分##作者版引而不發，比百老匯版有味
評分##Brick人設的連貫性明顯還是原版的好，對比下來Broadway version的轉摺也過於突兀瞭點..就像田納西自己說的I don’t believe that a conversation, however revelatory, ever effects so immediate a change in the heart or conduct of a person in Brick’s state of spiritual disrepair. (Big Daddy真是人間清醒
評分##“Mendacity is a system that we live in. Liquor is one way out and death’s the other.”
評分##感覺ACT III 是敗筆，前兩幕看的很爽
評分##寫的最傳神的並非美麗動人的貓女maggie也不是性嚮變幻莫測的英俊球星Brick，而是練達人生又對人生無可奈何的Big parents.
