Movie Version
Yes, there is a movie version. No, you shouldn't watch it and not read the play. I'll know; I've seen the movie. It stars Daniel Day-Lewis (the guy who played Lincoln in the recent movie Lincoln and Winona Ryder. The movie is good, you should see it...after you read the play. You'll appreciate it more. I promise. PS: I have the screenplay. Oh yeah, and we're going to be listening to nearly the entire play in class.
