User Reviews

one of the finest American play productions

I would love to see this production of Arthur Miller's often overlooked classic again. I vividly remember the performances of George C. Scott and Colleen Dewhurst as two of the finest with an equally exceptional performance by Barry Sullivan. Will someone please release this on DVD? The dialog snaps, the characters are great and every American family will see similarities in their own situation. In this age in which every family member gains (or loses) from love and material when a parent dies no better depiction exists. I can still see George C. Scott in his policeman's uniform looking for the reality behind his faith and belief system.
