I love these kinds of interviews. If this was in 2022, he would be having this conversation, 10 different jokes thrown in, or singing in carpool karaoke.
It’s interesting that he mentioned Anthony LaPaglia at the beginning of this interview. I just saw Death Of A Salesman for my first time yesterday in Sydney with Anthony LaPaglia playing Willy.
Death of a Salesman is one of the saddest playwrights I ever watched. Desperatengly sad, it's a capitalism hard critic and once more, the reverse of the once called American Dream. That a friend of mine said from then on should be called The American Nightmare. Miller tored it down into pieces, here, whatever dream there were left. It's a failure drama, and it's also about the issue aftermaths among the family members, affected by the main character failure. I consider it the hardest breaking down of the American Dream concept ever written, together with The Swimmer, the terrible great movie Frank Perry did, based upon the Cheever Short Story. Watched also The Price and not being a bad one at all, hadn't that terrible impact level. Miller was also known, inspite of not wanting it, for his Marylin Monroe affair. Think it possible that the critics about his behaviour with her, were justified. It was said he was a cruel and cold man. It was said he was jealous of Marylin's fame. Being her somehow more celebrated than him. Read his Memories but his explanations about the whole didn't go far. Though he surely never wanted to get deeper into. Could he had, anyway? - Try to watch his play After the Fall, considered another of his better ones. Though never catched it on show. Have to read it to see how he deals with this celebrated affair. He was brave and did it pretty well while the Witches Hunt. He gained a general applause because of his attitude while the audiences were taking place. The Front and then two or three Documentaries gave good testimony of all those ominous scoundrel times. As Lillian Hellman put it. Anyway, his story about Kazan, links perfectly how he knew Monroe and his broken friendship with Kazan, the well known movies Director and Screenwriter. Found both things weren't nice, but Marylin reuniting them again, later on, was a beautiful scene to be remembered. Though then their friendship was never the same one. They didn't recover from their breaking apart, as could be expected. There were others in the movie's industry who went even further against Elua Kazan surrender, face to McCarthy. Naturally. But all this is too well known as to keep on with. Marylin did not liked Miller's Misfits Screenwrigh. Though accepted to play the main actress role in the movie John Houston did with. She couldn't see herself reflected as kind of a wreck. As thought this movie would show her. Maybe it was Marylin affair with the French actor Yves Montand what put the nails in their coffin's relationship, I thought. Anycase, Miller will be also remembered for his Salem Witches work, a recreation of the Witches Hunt years. Metaphorically taken back into the States past. All cooperated to made Miller the wide world, well known Theater author he is. As a detail, have to add that I expected more of his View from the Bridge. A theater Play, that I also read. No doubt because this deals about the American Union's mobs. Something Kazan managed so well in his very good On the Waterfront, Screen writing, and movie. After having watched Kazan's Waterfront, I just wanted to know what a scary drama Miller could have written about the same subject. Kazan wrote also The Arrangement, an excellent novel that I liked even more than the amazing movie we know, as well. Where there again the American Dreams are duly cracked up, once again. So, Miller remains as another haunting and great, unforgettable American Author. With Eugene O'Neill, Tennessee Williams, and Edward Albee, the Father Founders of the American Theater. Don't miss their works. 💎❤️👍🤗🙏
I've never seen his plays performed, but out of all his plays, by far, I prefer his revision of Ibsen's An Enemy Of The People. All My Sons was my favorite completely by him tho. Aside from the epilogue in DOAS, I thought Loman was too aware of his own self-pity. And the flute is the worst musical instrument.
I love this play. I've only seen the version with Dustin Hoffman on TV, and I plan to watch the old film with Fredric March. I wish I could locate a copy with George C.Scott. Times have changed since it was first penned, but for me, like the play, "Glengarry Glen Ross," it's about the world men live in, and how they must struggle to survive, and to be successful.
It's about a narcissist father caught up in the beginnings of societal narcissism and the effect of the truth on his two sons. Without the luxury of financial support after divorce, the wife is an enabler who insists his sons believe the lie - Loman's honour, work ethic and success - One gamma son decides to be like him despite Loman's malignant ego and the trusting other has to accept the lifetime of lies when the truth is revealed and try to survive without his role model. Without the luxury of financial support after divorce, the wife is an enabler who insists his sons believe the lie - Loman's honour, work ethic and success - and the tension of emotional blackmail that Loman might kill himself if they don't. Interesting that Miller can barely remember why he wrote this, what it was about and the 33 year old age he was when he recieved his showbiz prize. Selling ones soul has it's price
Dumbass, first of all the play is down to interpretation and second of all you really gonna tell the person that created the play to have the same interpretation of his play as you. Some people are very special in the head
I don’t think anything good has come from making work ABOUT ego. What would that look like, and what would it look like to mention it? I don’t think the word ego is that important scabbycat cat, let go of the word you might start seeing it all around.
@@cmhardin37 Insecurity is at the foundation of nearly all negative behaviors. Willy Loman was insecure because of his fractured family and he passed that on to his children. Egotism derives from insecurity.
That’s a pretty narrow view. Any creative expression is open to interpretation and it’s always interesting to get the creator’s intent. And a play is vastly different from a novel or short story. It’s meant to be seen not merely read.
What a mean spirited thing to say. Miller wrote his masterpiece when he was 32, far from the millionaire you seem to think he always is and was. Get a life….or write something comparable to Miller’s immortal work.
@@Dimitris_Half I once heard a famous musician [net worth of $90 million] voice his disapproval of capitalism. Is that the stench of hypocrisy in the air? Hehehe
@@Dimitris_Half Consider this - anyone genuinely committed to socialism will disburse their wealth to make society fair and equitable. Why is a socialist clinging to all that $$$$ when the masses are suffering? His great musical ability earned him a fortune, and rightly so. RIGHTLY because the person who does the work and earns the money deserves the reward they have EARNED. Capitalism has opened the door for more impoverished people to succeed financially than any other economic system in the history of the world. My poor Italian grandparents are only one of millions of examples. Through lots of hard work and sacrifice the went from living in a tool shed in the Italian Alps to owning a business and properties in America. And I will the blessings of success on all people.

Rick it's about the human condition. Willie Loman exists in every country, every culture.
Jesus christ man wtf speak english.
Arthur Miller is one of the few who can make me laugh....
I can't remember a production of this play ever being down in the UK. I think Broadway is a fitting venue to see it
Frederick-Nrunk Kamara it’s always in the UK I’m seeing it in Manchester
I saw it just last year in london
I've been looking for a version where Willy was played by George C. Scott, if it was ever filmed or recorded.
Legend arthur
I've seen a half dozen willies. haha
yes, tragic
*Slow clap*
Je suis pas d’accord
then biff was incorrect, he's "a dime a half-dozen"
don't say that in the UK. It means something else...
Long live democratic socialism and freedom
What would he think about our current nightmare?
Dustin Hoffman was brilliant in the movie version.
No he wasn't.
He was way too young for the part and is "Playing" an old man with tons on "old man" make up.
@@NostalgiNorden That was not apparent they did a great make up job.
Yuhhhh dün hoca bu röportaji izlediğini soyledi bugün kesfete düştü özel hayat 0 💅💅💅💅

Hot take:
Dustin Hoffman was waaay too young to play Willie.
not very hot
Hoffman absolutely killed that role. That’s why it’s called ‘acting’, dipshit.
I love this play. I've only seen the version with Dustin Hoffman on TV, and I plan to watch the old film with Fredric March. I wish I could locate a copy with George C.Scott.

I saw it with George C Scott
@Bill Haywood - Where and how?
Take a look at Lee j Cob's TV version. It's very good too. He played Willie Loman when the play premiered on Broadway, I believe.
March is spellbinding in a slightly deranged interpretation.
The Lee J Cobb TV version is on TH-cam.

Linda and willy got divorced???
@@eviefleming6570 No. She needed his money
Yes. Interesting, he forgot why and what he wrote?
an enabler? i mean, she has stockholm syndrome and they talk to her like sh1t.
Indiana Rose Pftttttttt
Was Arthur millers father or uncle , Willie....
Surely the play was about EGO ! and theydon't even mention this
scabbycat cat or insecurity and the need for qualification, approval, and celebrity.

because miller has a lot of ego
Howard doesn't love Willy...
Writers always seem silly when they talk about their work. A play or a novel or a short story should speak for itself without any further explanation.
They only seem silly when they act impressed by themselves while discussing their work.
Interesting that you chose to watch an interview with a writer given your opinion.
That’s a pretty narrow view. Any creative expression is open to interpretation and it’s always interesting to get the creator’s intent. And a play is vastly different from a novel or short story. It’s meant to be seen not merely read.
Pas ouf
Another interviewer who constantly over talks the interviewee
"The corruption of capitalism." So say the two millionaires in the TV studio. Yeah, right.
What a mean spirited thing to say. Miller wrote his masterpiece when he was 32, far from the millionaire you seem to think he always is and was. Get a life….or write something comparable to Miller’s immortal work.
@@gavleopardi70 "Always is and was?" Don't think I said that.
