5.0 out of 5 stars Intense, April 11, 2007

This review is from: Eugene O'Neill's Beyond the Horizon (Broadway Theatre Archive) (DVD)

This play seems to be about the choices we make in our lives and how they affect us and those around us in the long run. Also familiar are "the grass is always greener on the other side" scenarios as Ruth decides first that she loves Andy, then Rob, then, after marrying Rob and making his life miserable, decides that she really loved Andy after all. Typically tragic Eugene O'Neill, who does misery so desperately well.

The question arises: should we indeed sacrifice our dreams for love? Is it worth the price? And is it really love at all to expect someone to do so?

The only true love in this play was between the two brothers, who supported each other choices unconditionally and experienced the die-hard grief in death that only those who love each other truly can.Splendor in the Grass

This review is from: Eugene O'Neill's Beyond the Horizon (Broadway Theatre Archive) (DVD)

WARNING -- I BOUGHT THIS ITEM RIGHT HERE ON AMAZON AND WANT TO WARN OTHERS THAT THE DVD INSIDE DOES NOT MATCH WHAT IS BEING ADVERTISED ON THE COVER. THE PEOPLE SHOWN ON THE COVER ARE NOT IN THIS DVD AT ALL. THE COVER SAYS STARRING JOHN HOUSEMAN, HERALDINE FITZGERALD, MARIA TUCCI. NOT SO I DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE COVER ART IMAGE IS FROM, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS FROM SOME OLD MOVIE, BUT WHAT IS BEING SOLD HERE IS A FILMED STAGE PLAY PRESENTED ON THIRTEEN WNET NEW IN 1976 AND DOES NOT LOOK ANYTHING LIKE WHAT IS SHOWN ON THE COVER. PERHAPS THERE WAS SOME LAST MINUTE LEGAL PROBLEM PREVENT THE PUBLISHERS FROM SELLING THE VERSION THEY ORIGIONALLY INTENDED AND THEN AT THE LAST MINUTE SUBSTITUTED SOME OTHER VERSION INSIDE THE BOX BUT KEPT THE OLD INCORRECT OUTER BOX ART BECAUSE THEY WERE ALREADY PRINTED. I JUST WANTED TO PUT THIS OUT THERE TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE OUT THERE HAS ANY COMMENTS OR INFORMATION ABOUT THIS.
