Such great acting, you'd think the actors were really living it.

i dont really get this play or movie

[anman913]

I've watched this about 50 times in the last month and it brings me to the point of tears with every viewing. The acting is just about as brilliant as the play itself, which is incredible considering how phenomenal the play really is. Arthur Miller is pretty much the greatest playwright of all time.

this is one of the most beautiful, moving scenes I have ever witnessed in a movie.

This is so powerful..... I sometimes get hesitant watching it because it is so good.

Intense.

@LuisPBE word for word the same

[lullachild]

@LuisPBE I came upon this video while I was reading the play and I didn't notice any differences, but I did not intentionally compare. I suspect that it is a very close rendering. Either way they really captured the spirit of Miller's play and added their own. Why do you ask? I highly recommend reading the play after seeing this video, btw.

@lullachild Do you know how close is this film to Miller's original script?
