There are a few films available but the film that really hits the mark is the Paul Newman directed version. His wife Joanne Woodward is Amanda. If you want to watch the play then this is it. But, there is no substitute for reading the play. This is an excellent Summary.
I will have an exam in Modern Drama, for Sunday, on Glass Menagerie, and the biography of its writer, Thomas Williams. So that I'm watching this video again and again 😅 Loc: Zakho/ Iraq Day: Friday Time: 9:44:05 pm Date: May 26 - 2023.
How does Tom the narrator introduce the gentleman caller Jim O’Connor to the audience? He speaks highly of him. What does he say? Tom goes to the circus and watches a magic show. The magician performs three magic tricks. What are they? Which magic show does tom like the most? Explain
He's her unicorn. Just like she loved/treasured the unicorn most from her collection, he was, in her mind, apart from her family the only other magical creature that might love her and care for her the way she imagines the unicorn to do so. She was in love with him in high school and still carries that with her, especially after they kiss. Her fantasy, Jim, or, the Unicorn, up to that point might have had a shot at coming true. Alas, he was engaged to a real girl and broke the fantasy. In this case, breaking this fantasy only causes her to pull away from the real world and fall entirely into the whims of her glass menagerie. She gives him the unicorn, simply, because he IS the unicorn in a way. Just as he breaks her heart by not being able to be with her, he too broke the unicorn's horn itself.

I love how you explained everything in a few words, "Brevity is the soul of wit"
Maybe if they didn't force this play I would have loved it even more 🙄 but thanks, this video is very helpful

When I was 14, a judge sentenced me with reading the glass menagerie. I never did but I'm curious as to why she felt the need for me to read it.
How many years did it take for you to search it?
Judges do that?? For what reason?

Why does Laura give the unicorn to Jim?
He's her unicorn. Just like she loved/treasured the unicorn most from her collection, he was, in her mind, apart from her family the only other magical creature that might love her and care for her the way she imagines the unicorn to do so. She was in love with him in high school and still carries that with her, especially after they kiss. Her fantasy, Jim, or, the Unicorn, up to that point might have had a shot at coming true. Alas, he was engaged to a real girl and broke the fantasy. In this case, breaking this fantasy only causes her to pull away from the real world and fall entirely into the whims of her glass menagerie.
She gives him the unicorn, simply, because he IS the unicorn in a way. Just as he breaks her heart by not being able to be with her, he too broke the unicorn's horn itself.
@@theshooterflynn It also shows that Jim lost his uniqueness from others by breaking the horn of the unicorn as it becomes a normal horse.
No I didn't
I was reading your message seriously... Come on Laura :D you did give it, confesss :)@@handmade64

Anyone else watching this for a class because the book was boring
Sir, your pronunciation sounds a little bit exagerated to me which causes me to have problems with following the issue
So, being a non native English speaker I easily and precisely can understand him.. Unfamiliar with the accent even 🎉
