As one who is very familiar with the original play by Lucille Fletcher, I was eager to see the screen adaptation. What a huge disappointment - the screen version was very different from the wonderful play and none of the differences were improvements. In fact, they were just the opposite. Even the name changes didn't make sense - Ellen instead of Elaine, Barry instead of Larry, Sarah instead of Blanche????? And the ending which was so powerful in the play, was simply a graphic bloodbath. I encourage anyone interested in the movie to read the play instead.
