Theatrical reviews about Mary McDonnell

Jan 22, 2009 17:43

obsessive_a101 's post reminded me that some months ago I found a lot of great theatrical reviews on New York Times. It is amazing that you can find even the ones from 1978. I've made a list of almost all of Mary's performances, and a collection of these NYT reviews as well. I posted it on my blog. The article itself is in Hungarian, but don't let this ( Read more... )

orpheus descending, black angel, buried child, still life, the death of a miner, starlight talkers, mm, three ways home, execution of justice, letters home, national anthems, a doll's house, a weekend near madison, stitchers, o'pioneers, savage in limbo, three sisters, summer & smoke, the heidi chronicles, red river, all night long

I translated this~ Through a online translator for online translation It did a pretty good job I think. Thought I would share the translated version~ so now one else has to go threw the trouble~ Hungarian translation is harder to find then some languages ( ... )

Thank you, Mamabelladonna, that was a lovely surprise! :)
Online translators can be so funny. :) *Sigh* Ok, i put my children to bed, and I come back to do a proper translation.

I know how they can be sometimes - *eyes roll too* :) Well this should or hopefully make it easier for you~ I thought is was pretty good though from what I get from other translations~ But I guess we will really find out when you fix it- lol Thanks for sharing I really enjoyed it!!

Thank you so much!

Ah... but I need membership. I'm going to put off signing up for now. *sighs*

And as for the non-positive reviews, one of the things I've loved about her as an actress is how honestly organic she is, and this was something that shined through in the book as well. She grows with the character, and her character develops each time she plays her. And it was actually mentioned in the book, how some people didn't like where she took the characters. *chuckles*

But yes! Thank you!

Well, at least the membership is free, at least it was for me.

Ah, I believe it is too, but I'm always so reluctant to sign up to these things, but I'll probably end up joining. (^_^) Plus, it's the NY Times, a publication I can respect, so it all works out.
