What ho! (Long Day's Journey Into Night - Act IV)

Jamie's been drinking. Quite a lot (and unsurprisingly). From the 1962 Lumet-directed version of Eugene O'Neill's Long Day's Journey Into Night. Jason Robards as Jamie, Dean Stockwell as Edmund.

@FlakeyFreakout "Don't get too damn fresh!"

@AtLastOnTheGround Actually truth be told, O'Neill would probably be a little upset that the play was published and then performed when it was. Before he died, he had specified that it was not to be published until 25 years had passed after his death. Maybe it is because the play is completely autobiographical, and he felt it would be embarassing to his family. The play is based on his family, including his brother "Jamie" who drank himself to death at 45 yrs old.

Unforgettable adaptation of my favourite american play. It moved me to watch it again after so many years, thank you!

This is great acting. You don't see it like this nowadays. Actors have become so indulgent that they feel that it's okay to just play themselves, with no respect to the text and the ideas that it represents. Just wonderful. O'Neill would be smiling in his grave.
