Talk:The Night of the Iguana

Film

I've moved the information about the film to The Night of the Iguana (film). This article can therefore be about the play. Count de Ville 19:29, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Lesbian Fellowes?

Having just watched the play performed in its entirety, I firstly question the claim that Ms. Fellowes is an "overtly lesbian" character, as the only claims of her homosexuality come in the form of goading/derogatory remarks from Shannon--who chiefly characterizes her as "butch" and a single time in the play makes a play on words including "dykes" purely to provoke her ire. I also dispute that the cited article even claims as much--it appears to be a contemporary review of the play in which the critic deems the character a "latent lesbian", which language itself undermines the "overt" part of "overtly lesbian". For now, I am deleting the line, and moving the cited review to the external links section. Message me on my talk page if you disagree or have a different suggestion.

Upon getting my eyeballs screwed in properly and looking back over the cited Life magazine article, it has become apparent that it is a review not for the play, but for the 1964 film adaptation. As such, I will not be putting it in external links, as it is not actually relevant. Worth noting that the review in question overstates/overinterprets virtually every element of the plot--def not a good source for details of Williams' characterization, even were it for the correct work of art.
