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.
##cat on a hot tin roof,好比喻也经不起反复用,灵气受折磨。 Broadway Version结局不如原版,强求人物发狠,突变太多。Williams的解释是,"Brick should undergo some apparent mutation",但想没想过,醉鬼真的只希望跪在烂摊子里流点眼泪,他不要变,要酒。非把玻璃裂痕都熔了,捏作新玻璃,说这是人的崛起,之后再不会碎,以为这么更聪明。殊不知最好的就是那一个碎,全毁了最聪明。
评分##自以为比streetcar会更有tension。And once again sensing the lack of communication under fast paced, breathless, overwhelming dialogues. 喜欢original script,结尾多有意思啊

评分##Brick人设的连贯性明显还是原版的好,对比下来Broadway version的转折也过于突兀了点..就像田纳西自己说的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真是人间清醒
评分##已购# "Mendacity is a system that we live in. Liquor is one way out and death is the other." 两个版本的结局我都挺喜欢的,田纳西原版的结尾Brick的反问有一种很无奈的悲伤,可能观众更多的是同情Brick;百老汇版的结尾是Maggie走投无路的哀求,就像a cat on a hot tin roof,就像田纳西自己记录的导演Kazan提的建议"...the character of Margaret...should be, if possible, more clearly sympathetic to an audience."田纳西真的很会写家庭成员之间的紧张和矛盾关系,个人觉得比奥尼尔要好很多。
评分##第二幕对the difficulty of communication的展现太神了……mendacity! Plot 太差靠台词救,第二幕救回来了第三幕两个版本都不行。
评分##些许情绪化 没戳中我 反而印象深刻的是 Tiffany glass
