Glad to see another devotee of a very much living art (: Nothing stirs like
a great play. I must admit I really did like the movie of Six Degrees -
although it was very much a `play-movie' that betrayed its stage origins to
a large extent, which is where you get things like monologues that seem
uncomfortably long and so forth (it didn't bother me though - and you're
right Paul, Donald Sutherland is great. I just saw `The Day of the Locust'
for the first time the other day - his character's name is Homer Simpson!).
Never seen it on stage but I'd love to.
