If his ex wife was really the horribly wicked witch she’s being described as, my only question is why they remained married for so long?
What is known about their marriage sounds like the first draft of one of my favorite old movies: “Who’s Afraid of Virgina Wolfe?” Starring Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton.
Seen on the Late Late Show.
They traded insults like two hissing wildcats trading scratches and fang bites. It was both pathetic and deeply hilarious.
My whole family watched it together and had a ball.
“War of the Roses” was also a fun romp of a dysfunctional relationship.
The next weekend, I saw Lord Jim, with Peter O'Toole, James Mason, Eli Wallach, and Jack Hawkins.
That began a life long romance with great films, or more accurately, great stories.
Mainstream producers thought the play would do better with a hetero couple, as a gay couple was too shocking for early 1960s Broadway or Hollywood.
So they made Albee change the characters to a hetero couple. But without changing much of the dialog or story.
Well because she is/was physically hot af. Heres a sample clip of her in the glory days. Seeing this I don’t blame Johnny.
I think she was likely worse than he was - but they’re both off the wall type of personalities just from thir interviews.
She’s crazier than a shithouse mouse.
