Talk:A View from the Bridge

message: Tha article mentions a film being made as of 2006. Please note that a 1961 film was made by Sidney Lumet under the main release title Vu du pont (imdb link).--Fuhghettaboutit 23:34, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Already a movie

message: A friend of mine said that Eddie had originally died in Catherine's arms. I'm not sure if this is true, so I'll post it here for the interested to look over. - AnonymousNow
:According to this he dies at Catherine's feet in an older version, but that version is now rarely used and when referring to the play, it is assumed that one is referring to the newer version, so I think adding this to the article would merely confuse readers.

thread_title:  Initial Performance Difference 

message: The earlier version of this article implied that On the Waterfront represented Kazan's response to A View from the Bridge, but in fact Kazan's movie appeared before Miller's play, not the other way round. Nandt1 04:38, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Relative sequencing vis-a-vis On the Waterfront 

message: Another Wikpedia user described Eddie in the cast of characters as bisexual.  I have deleted this description.  The only basis for such a suggestion is that, when Eddie seeks to humiliate Rodolpho, he first wrestles him into a helpless position and then mockingly plants a kiss on Rodolpho's lips.  This is, to be put it no more stongly, far from conclusive of bisexuality -- it can alternatively be read as merely an act of humiliation of the younger, physically weaker man.  This question is already discussed elsewhere within the article; a simple assertion of Eddie's bisexuality simplifies excessively a more complex issue. Nandt1 (talk) 20:33, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Is Eddie bisexual? 

message: Why is there no mention of Alfieri? He plays a huge role in the play, acting as a Greek Chorus, a main character and a bridge between cultures. Surely there should be some mention of him, other than in the cast list, anyway.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.1.70.105 (talk) 23:01, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Where's Alfieri? 

message: I notice in an earlier form of this page, it said that Katie an Rodolpho were 'making love'. I felt it best to change this because it seemed most likely wrong or just a modern take on an older play. There are also other reasons.
1. The timings on stage would be weird, because they were only there for 'a moment'.
2. Also the prior dialogue dosn't imply they would.
3. They were unmarried, which would mean they wouldn't do it.
4. It would have brought great dishonor to their family.
5. It would have significantly increased the family tensions.

thread_title:  Katie and Rodolpho in the bedroom. 

message: "Rodolpho gains a reputation with his colleagues for his effeminate nature, which includes singing and the fact he has blonde hair."
I'm not sure about this.  Eddie think's Rudolpho is gay (because of the singing and blonde hair) but no one else says it.  When Eddie's friend talks about Rodolpho having a "sense of humor," it's clear that Eddie is interpreting this to mean that "everyone" thinks Rudolpho is gay.  But I thought that everything was in Eddie's mind.
