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.
##第二幕對the difficulty of communication的展現太神瞭……mendacity! Plot 太差靠颱詞救,第二幕救迴來瞭第三幕兩個版本都不行。
評分##很威廉姆斯啊……
評分##些許情緒化 沒戳中我 反而印象深刻的是 Tiffany glass
評分##感覺ACT III 是敗筆,前兩幕看的很爽
評分##作者版引而不發,比百老匯版有味
評分##已購# "Mendacity is a system that we live in. Liquor is one way out and death is the other." 兩個版本的結局我都挺喜歡的,田納西原版的結尾Brick的反問有一種很無奈的悲傷,可能觀眾更多的是同情Brick;百老匯版的結尾是Maggie走投無路的哀求,就像a cat on a hot tin roof,就像田納西自己記錄的導演Kazan提的建議"...the character of Margaret...should be, if possible, more clearly sympathetic to an audience."田納西真的很會寫傢庭成員之間的緊張和矛盾關係,個人覺得比奧尼爾要好很多。
評分人物性格塑造得很鮮明,戲劇的題目直接道齣瞭主人公的處境,而作者又沒有賦予瞭其過多的對白,沒有詳細點明她的處境如何,反而是用他人來襯托她,慢慢讀下去,maggie的性格就都呈現齣來瞭。
評分##相對還是更喜歡欲望。
評分##自以為比streetcar會更有tension。And once again sensing the lack of communication under fast paced, breathless, overwhelming dialogues. 喜歡original script,結尾多有意思啊
