    I was reading the play while watching this. they've memorised their lines so perfectly it was astounding. I did not expect to be in tears but the final fight between biff and Willy did it for me. I couldn't contain myself. very well acted I hope they got awards!

    Amazing performance! I was reading the play while this was playing and it's truly outstanding how they memorized the lines almost perfectly. Thank you for helping by giving me some visuals to work with to understand the play. Everyone in this cast was amazing.

    @qdude21 Před 3 lety +19

    Wow, I couldn't care at all about this play since I was randomly assigned to read the script in school, but after watching it, it's amazing. Plays are meant to be watched, not read. Why do you think people hate reading so much? It's schools forcing people to do things they don't care to do.

  • @briacounterman5224
    @briacounterman5224 Před 6 lety +7

    12:18-12:58 is the best from Willy, in my opinion. Very good timing, controlled emotion and natural.

  • @madam-mint
    @madam-mint Před 7 lety +20

    I sped forward to the ending, because I wanted to see the final confrontation with Biff and Willy. That's the scene that made me cry. Because Biff was my favorite character. He had more to him than the typical "dumb jock" stereotype. He had issues I could relate to despite the fact that I'm not a jock. This portrayal was PERFECTION. The kid was completely miserable. Straight up broken. And it broke me: like it was meant to. Fantastic job. As a side note, he's not bad looks-wise. (I'M SORRY. I had to say it.)

    • @madam-mint
      @madam-mint Před 7 lety +1

      Little thirlwards I'll try my best. Willy Loman thinks he's a successful businessman, but his time's basically up. He can't sell anymore, but he's in denial and lives on loans from his friend to survive, pretending it's his pay. His mind is going, his son Biff doesn't know what to do with his life and has given up on making his dad proud. Happy, despite his name, is completely ignored and only wants to make him proud. They're a very dysfunctional family, the story delves into every thing that made their relationships go wrong, and let's just say it's not a feel-good play.

  • @theasexualcoffeetable2467

    I had to read the play for my english class and the professor told me that it would be a good idea to watch the play while following along with the script because it helps alot with all that is going on in the play (willy has a lot of flashbacks that occur while he is talking to other people and they randomly occur so for me being a visual learner it was nice seeing how it worked out in the play instead of solely using the script to help me paint a picture in my mind. 12/10 would recommend this production because they were very good at their roles and their ability to memorize the exactly lines amazes me : D

      Little thirlwards hello there! There are actually a lot of stuff going on the story and I don't want to lead you astray in my poor explanations but try cliffnotes for an overview of the summary (www.cliffsnotes.com/literature/d/death-of-a-salesman/play-summary) or shmoop (www.shmoop.com/death-of-a-salesman/summary.html) they both have very good explanations that helped me understand the play better so I highly recommend them!hopefully this helped

    ON A LIGHTER NOTE! "Strudel's comin'." That delivery made me giggle. Hap is underrated to high heavens. What a womanizer, but so well acted. That clever napkin throw though. Sorry I missed him the first time. I nearly forgot him in the book, but I couldn't help but love him here.

  • @kwixotic
    @kwixotic Před 9 lety +1

    The Bernard/Willy scene in Charlie's office seems to have too much body movement, moreso with Willy and it gets a bit distracting. Also there's no need to bark out the lines where Willy is asking himself why Biff for fifteen years he's been asking himself why Biff would flunk math and lay down and die like a hammer hit him.
    Not that they had to duplicate the original with Lee J. Cobb as Willy Loman and Gene Wilder as Bernard but at least when they were sitting you witnessed more of Willy's internal struggle and the mental angst that characterized it but in a CONTROLLED state, not so wildly dispersed around as in this case.
