His earlier works like The Tall Blond Man, and the Goat were funny, but I would not say the Closet and Dinner Game were any lower on laughing scale than the Tall Man. If anything they are more refined, with better dialogue. The dialogue in the Tall Man was quite crude by comparisson.Of course I only heard these in translation... the Tall Man, actually, in Russian dubbing, which usually was quite good.

I think we should have a rule here on discussing comedies - NO DISCUSSIONS OF COMEDIES.Sense of humor is the most individual of senses.
***I think we should have a rule here on discussing comedies - NO DISCUSSIONS OF COMEDIES.Not even with AuPh? And he thought Closet was as socially significant as Philadelphia, except set in a more primitive society.
In Philadelphia, homosexuality was totally taboo, the very macho/ puritan way...The Closet was just the contrary in spirit ( more... What ? You are not homosexual, quel dommage! )
The best in Phil. was the singing of " La Callas ".
A wonderful actress on the Opera scene, a terrible one in " Medea ".
I don't disagree.Xe xe.
Tell me you didn't you pay $50 for the Dinner Game?! That's how much it costs on Amazon.
I see it there for $10... used. $13 new. I suspect that's what I paid.
I wouldn't imagine something like that.
