Buckle Your Seatbelts

I watched what would be considered to Act I of A Long Day's Journey Into Night with Katherine Hepburn. I was already tearing up after the end of Act I. I didn't know exactly how the mother could be played out on paper. Seeing it's shocking. She's brilliant. This should be a more well known Katherine Hepburn movie than it is.

This Should Come As No Surprise...

I'm reading A Long Day's Journey Into Night. Do I love it? Do drag queens like big wigs? Mary Tyrone of course is my favorite character. Eugene O'Neill writes addiction so well. Her mannerisms and her speech are so convincing. It's uncanny especially considering this premiered in 1956.

And to have seen Ms. Redgrave play this role must have been amazing. I'll put up with Katherine Hepburn, because I'm sure she's got this character nailed.

What are you staring at, is it my hair?
