This is actually a very good play. I watched this movie in order to use it as a source for a school paper and in the re-writing, the person responsible for adapting it to this movie format left out a great deal of dialogue, instances do not come to mind at the moment, but it took something away from the movie.
Anthony Hopkins was wonderful in the movie but by the time I was halfway thru the movie, I wanted to choke Nora, so cloying was she. Her voice became fingernails on a chalkboard to me.
I would recommend, academically, the version with Jane Fonda starring in it. It's a significantly better version and not as boring. When I was finished watching this version, I wanted to sue the production company for the hour and a half of my life I lost.
