- Quotes
Mary Hollister: If nobody ever did anything that hadn't been done before-we'd be a sweet set of dubs.
All of this rang very true in some fashion or other, though it's cynical while trying to be ultra-truthful - which makes it somewhat exploitative, if not wholly so. Nevertheless, it's a riveting piece. The only thing I found problematic was that this was 1924; WWI had only ended six years before. Another kind of thinking layer was upon the youth from 18-25. These kids look as if that psychological gauze had never been put upon them. They were simply the rebellious kids that Fitzgerald heralded in This Side of Paradise. They were the exempla of the Roaring 20's.
A truly interesting piece of drama. Don't be surprised by anything. It probably WILL occur.
