i watched The Defiant Ones tonight- truly amazing. Such rich symbolism- the two races shackled together, the ravening dogs, the tempting seduction, the final realization that falling together was preferable to sacrificing the other. just- whoa.

i looked it up and saw that it was adapted from a story. I was suprised, it felt to me like it had originally been written for the stage. I can imagine a stage production with minimal sets for the interiors and the exteriors projected onto scrims, stark lighting, you know?
