I wonder if Miller will be remembered for
The Death of a Salesman or
The Crucible
as much as he will be for marrying Marilyn Monroe?

[Doreen Peri]

He was married to Marilyn Monroe?

Yer kidding.

Who knew?



Hey Zlatko.... have you ever seen "the Death of a Salesman" film with Dustin Hoffman? He was fabulous! LR and I rented it a while back. I loved it.

Miller was a great playwright. His plays will become classics. Hell, many of them are already considered classics.

Yes, Doreen:

I did see and enjoy the Dustin Hoffman version of "Death of a Salesman" very much. Hoffman's performance was outstanding.

Also, I liked the 1996 film made of "The Crucible."

Here's a rather elaborate web site on the film, which got some very good reviews. It would be worth renting and watching.

Winona Ryder gives quite a good performance. Daniel Day-Lewis and Paul Scofield are superb, of course.

I recommend it.
