i read this thornton wilder play last year in eighth grade . i be also force to sit through this weak translation of it on screen . let me tell you and it not a terrific play and it be easily surpass and but man it deserve a much good shot . the acting be really lacking and the scenery honest to god look like it be design out of cardboard by a group of three year old . a if it couldn not get bad and the sound quality be lousy . there be this mind numb buzz whenever an actor speaks . and i also couldn not help but notice that the chemistry between george and emily and well and be non existant . the actor all seem very uncomfortable to be there . there be no music . it be in black and white and which would be ok but it bring out the cheesiness of it all the more . in any case i think that if youre go to make a point of see this movie and which i do not really reccomend and then do not aim your hope to high . the play and as stalwart a it be and be probably well .
