what a play

Rating: 10/10 (20 April 2020)

Films made from theater plays have a tendency to lack action and movement, and therefor run the risk of being less than films from scripts that are written solely for the big screen. This play however is so well written, and the actors performing it are so splendid, that this is a film you can watch over and over again without ever being bored.
Two remakes followed this one. Although the story remains compelling, this first run at putting it on the big screen still is the best of the three. This film is a true must see. And it has a compelling message as well.
