   Is Suddenly Last Summer a good movie?

   • Whatever problems the film had in its conception and reception, Suddenly Last Summer emerges as one of the better Tennessee Williams film adaptations today. It captured the stark and intense atmosphere of the play, and not even the attempts to tone the content down detracted from the final production.

   What is Suddenly Last Summer about?

   • While Tennessee Williams was a writer who often dwelt on melancholic and violent themes, Suddenly Last Summer is perhaps his most pessimistic vision of both nature and human nature. The play portrays a world in which life on the planet is governed by cruelty, predation and base instincts.

   Is Suddenly Last Summer a melodramatic play?

   • Suddenly Last Summer is a classic example of this art in action. Tennessee Williams was the toast of Broadway in the 1950's, with his melodramatic plays that often tackled heavy subjects such as addiction, adultery and in the case of this story, homosexuality.

   Was Suddenly Last Summer gay?

   • Suddenly Last Summer was more explicit in its treatment of the homosexuality of the unseen Sebastian Venable than had been in the case in two previous Tennessee Williams cinema adaptations which had included gay characters. How did the film get away with it in 1959? I am afraid the reasons are not nice.

   Why is Suddenly Last Summer so popular?

   • It became an art form of sorts, for Hollywood film makers to veil their nasty little subjects so that the censors (who weren't that bright anyway) couldn't find it, but so that a smart audience could. Suddenly Last Summer is a classic example of this art in action.

   Apr 24, 2018 · Wildly controversial at the time of its release, this delirious mix of lurid melodrama and Gothic horror stills packs a provocative punch. Hepburn wins the acting battle as the iron-willed matriarch, while the film is so powerfully written by Gore Vidal and Williams himself that it's almost frightening at times.

   Chicago Reader. The cast packs enough sexual ambiguity to satisfy the most rabid Williams fan (not to mention a screenplay by Gore Vidal), but Mankiewicz leaves much of the innuendo unexplored—thankfully, perhaps. Read More. By Dave Kehr FULL REVIEW. 50.
