I read The Dumb Waiter because I felt "Oh, it's Pinter, better be familiar with it." When I was done, I thought, "Well, that was unpleasant."
And that is the sum of my thoughts on Pinter, his Nobel, his politics, his life, and his death.

Another finger-painter dead. Don’t know if I’ll remember this.
Probably not. Maybe I’ll write a note on the etch-a-sketch.

Pinter was a raving leftie and his plays were depressing.
Don't forget when he got his Nobel he used the forum to vent his hatred at Bush and the US.
I was just thinking the other while watching “The Man Who Came To Dinner”, where are the great playwrights, the answer, we don't have any.
Say what you will but guys like Moss Hart, George Kauffman, etc, really wrote great stuff back in the day and I don't think there are any modern people who write nearly as well or witty.

At long last and for all time, Mr. Pinter has become one with his trademark stage-dialogue direction:

Hot enough for you, Pinter?

Movie freak,Roger Simon thinks Harold Pinter was a great Artist.
As an “Art” Critic, Roger Simon has now been elevated to the ranks of those who think Andres Serrano's “Piss Christ” is meritorious art and those who proclaimed the Waffen SS dressed better than G.I. Joe.
I would not be surprised if Roger would praise the water colors of country churches by the young artist Adolf Hitler as” incredibly promising”.
When are we going to fight back?
