 YOU THINK YOUR FOLKS FIGHT TOO MUCH?, 2008-02-26
Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? Crank it up for your kids and grandkids to watch and learn what a REAL augument and/or fight sounds like and looks like! Hay, this isn't two people swearing at each other! This is two people tearing each other's lives, hopes and dreams apart just because of hurt and anger. They never learned how to fight fair and we have to be ashamed for them but never, never, act like them!
One of the best films ever made, and one of my all-time favorites., 2008-02-23
As the tagline states, "You are cordially invited to George and Martha's for a night of fun and games." Fun, indeed! This is one of the best films ever made, in my opinion, and one of the best directorial debuts ever - courtesy of Mike Nichols. Controversial for it's time because of it's refusal to water down any of the adult elements of Edward Albee's play - it is a riveting character study featuring excellent performances from the entire cast. The dialogue is to die for! Both horrifying and hilarious, this should be required viewing for every film buff.
Something that may be of interest to fans of the film, is that Warner Brothers released a deluxe, 2 LP set of the entire film's dialogue. It's an awesome set, and perfect for those moments when you just want to hear George and Martha tear each other to shreds. It's rare, but if you can find it, purchase it. I am glad to say that I own one!

Incredible performances my fav drama of all time!, 2007-10-08
The acting in this movie is absolutely superb, but a lot of credit should go to Edward Albee as well. His play is a fascinating read, and Mike Nichols debut film as director RULES!!! The intensity of the performances and also the subject matter was groundbreaking. This really is my favorite dramatic film. Another Mike Nichols film I truly enjoyed was the film "Closer."
