- I DO NOT OWN ANY RIGHTS OF THIS CONTENT. (EDUCATION PURPOSE ONLY). Long Day's Journey Into Night is a 1956 drama in four acts written by American playwright Eugene O'Neill and later it was filmed and showed on TV.
This is one of my favorite versions, everyone else plays it so grand. It is a story about an Irish American family getting drunk and having the same argument they've had for years. The mother has been in and out of rehab many times (She does eventually kick the habit) , and the son eventually gets well and writes the play. It's not really that tragic. very entertaning though.
Yay! Pt 2! I was worried. And Peter Gallagher, though. He’s dreamy in anything he does! And I love when he quotes Of the Days of Wine and Roses. Another great film Lemmon was in!
He was GREAT in Glengarry Glen Ross Jack always great in filmed plays!!!!!

Thanks for posting this, Hassam.
"I'm as drunk as a fiddler's bitch!"
what incredible direction
the lines die unrecognized
Why would they speed up the play?
For a family they have no chemistry
Ralph Richardson and Katherine Hepburn were magical in this and it will be hard to see that version bettered
I personally think Jack Lemmon is overrated as an actor he is all surface and no depth and I always have the feeling his ego is constantly telling him he's brilliant - very self conscious actor
everything is surface.surface is everything

This doesn't do it for me. Why are they standing up so much? Jack Lemmon is a wonderful actor, but wrong for this. He has none of the grandeur of Richardson.
Lemmon is lovable as a!ways, but tragically miscast, nobody is Katherine Hepburn tragically too, whom owned the role, Spacey is as flat, fake, and mechanical as any overconfident acting student, and Peter Gallagher is as wooden, lifeless, and forgettable as any mediocre soap opera actor,and even the majors horrific too....Sad,and painful to see So many great lines call flat and Die recognized.
yep there does seem a mismatch between them
Hmmmm quite insightful I like how you describe each actors performance. Yes, great lines die flat and unrecognized
I liked it.
Jessica Lange on Broadway was glorious beyond words. And "lovable" is the word you use for Jack Lemmon in this? That is the last word I would ever think of. He might be a little bit miscast, but it still works. PG's sea monolog is not good. Totally unnatural sentence flow. Spacey is excellent in this. It's hard to judge a play performance when it's filmed up close, and without hearing audience responses.
@@djmotise Saw it live. This is pretty close to what I remember. I liked Lemmon, but for me nobody can come close to what Olivier achieved in the role. Still hoping to find that on UA-cam someday. You're lucky to have seen Ms. Lange, I wish I had. I did see her in 'Glass Menagerie' and she was excellent. Last Mary Tyrone I saw onstage was Frances Sternhagen around 2000 and she was also superb.
