The allegory of this play is how the undead destroy all happiness. None of you unaware insects know what I speak of and none of you know what happiness is.

I like it and thanks for the upload. I wish they filmed a version with Jessica Tandy and Angela Lansbury. They both did it on stage at different points.

Can't stand Ibsen, he was a proto-feminist libtard. His male characters are such soyjack wimps.

Mr. Ibsen, at last finding his True Lyricism in his final T works...... .

Did Albee really believe this one was interesting? “Delicate Balance” was talky and subtle, but the characters weren’t boring. “All Over” just lays there.

@calebcostigan25615 ай бұрын

Not a bad point. While “Seascape” was a hit and won the Pulitzer in ‘75 the 70s and 80s were Albee’s low point. This ran for only 40 performances. “The Lady from Dubuque” crashed and burned with 12 and “The Man with the Three Arms” closed after 16. “Three Tall Women” brought him back in 1990. I’d love to see a professional, filmed version of that.

Wonderful play....if not very disturbing. I am very familiar with "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?", but I must admit I had never heard of this play by Albee. I have a new appreciation for his work. It makes me want to see all his plays. Thanks for posting!

He's marvelous. I recommend Three Tall Women, Seascape, The Goat or Who Is Sylvia?, and A Delicate Balance. His plays from this period are very difficult technically, and I have to think they benefitted from actors familiar with the cadence and tonality of New England language.

A master class in superb acting, esp Myra Carter (the Mistress). Thank you for posting; I enjoyed all of it.

Yes, thank you for improving the sound. This is one of my favorite Ibsen plays. I'd love to see it performed live, indoors or outdoors.

Too thespianish !! Vintage Ham in large amounts . Acting styles change I suppose . Still......a great play! Saw Leo McKern version - he managed to tone down his normal blustering old fart persona . Barked a bit too much but otherwise bearable. Haven't seen Ralph Fiennes yet. ?

Very Good Man. Excellent voice. Such a Beautiful song contrasted by misery. A Beautiful song can make one dream, and dreams really do come true. I hope that those folks still dream .

@onivasid2 жыл бұрын

Thank you, Howard. And thanks for your trenchant observation. It's gratifying to see you that you got the message I was reaching for - one commonality as humans is that we are all dreamers, no matter what our circumstances might be. And we are all "beautiful people" - just by being human. Now, if only every person on earth would believe that...

That was EXCELLENT Man! Bravo! Bravo! Bravo! You made my Thanksgiving Brother. Happy Thanksgiving! At first, You reminded me of Woody Allen with a dash of Seinfeld. But no.

Thank you, Howard. I am truly grateful for your appreciation of the work. And your kind words. I will make every effort to bring happiness into people's lives, as you have recommended - it is my one true goal, which you have recognized - and that is a gift from you I take to heart.

Sublime performances from the entire cast. Ibsen was always a dramatist far ahead of his time with respect to relationships and the human condition.

Interesting observations, 2msvalkyrie and lilybaytoday. I often wonder if it had something to with Norwegian culture at that time. Either that, or Ibsen was trying to work through his own personal shortcomings and ideas about masculinity with these characters, so that's who we get.
