UGary Wilmes kunye noTatiana Maslany eMary Page Marlowe.UJoan Marcus Ndiyayikhumbula i-Tracy Letts endala, ii-Letts ezinentsingiselo neziphambeneyo, ezisenze ukuba sihlale kunye nababulali ababulalayo, ii-junkies kunye ne-kooks zelenqe, abathi bahlasela i-Broadway nge-pulpy family shocker ( Nge-Agasti: kwi-Osage County ) eyayizonwabisa kakhulu ukuba ingazikhathazi ngokuba nzulu. Iileta zazinjalo-ndiyathemba-luhlobo lomdlali odlalayo owaziyo u-O'Neill noWilliams, kodwa eneneni wancanca umbele kaShepard, okanye ngcono, iTarantino kunye neLynch. Ndixolele i-whost ye-nostalgic whine, kodwa kwimbono ephezulu, idrama ephantsi UMary Page Marlowe ubhala njenge-MFA grad ezama ukungena kwiKlabhu yeMidlalo yeMidlalo yaseManhattan. Yintoni eyenzekileyo kwinkwenkwe embi yakudala?
Ndiyazi: Iileta zakhula. Ngokunjalo nesihloko sesihloko sesiqwenga esitsha, esiqale kwiSteppenwolf yaseChicago ngo-2016. UMary Page Marlowe isifundo somlinganiswa njengephazili. Thatha ibhokisi yeefoto kumntu ongamaziyo, uzishunqule, kwaye kukho umdlalo wakho weqonga. Iileta zide zibandakanye nezinto ezisempumlweni ezinje ngengcaciso kaMary kutheni ethanda ukuba ngumgcini zincwadi zerhafu. Uyakuthanda ukugcina iirisithi kuba kufana nokusebenza iphazili kwaye ubeke amaqhekeza endaweni-kwaye ngamanye amaxesha konke kuyadibana. Onke amanani adibanisa. Ewe, siyayifumana.
Xa sidibana noMary, uneminyaka engama-40 (edlalwe ngosizi olumangalisayo nguSusan Pourfar omangalisayo), esecicini lokuqhawula umtshato kunye nokufudukela eKentucky-iindaba zokuba uqhekeza abantwana bakhe kwindawo yokutyela. Intombi yakhe ekwishumi elivisayo (uKayli Carter) wothukile kwaye unyana omncinci uyahamba engenazintloni engenanto. Njengoko imizuzu engama-90 elandelayo isenzeka, siza kufunda ukuba uMary (kunye nabantwana bakhe) unengxaki enkulu yokungonwabi ngasemva kwakhe kwaye uza ejikelezayo.
Indawo elandelayo iphinda ibuyele kwiintsuku zekholeji ezimnyama zikaMary (u-Emma Geer njengoMary) kunye ne-gal pals efunda amakhadi e-tarot. I-vignette emva koko iyambonisa kwiminyaka etofotofo yokuthatha umhlala-phantsi kunye nomyeni wesithathu, kunye nomhlali ongumdala uMary (mellow Blair Brown) efunda ukuba ekugqibeleni ukhululekile ukuba ashiye imigca yelizwe emva kolwaphulo-mthetho olungachazwanga. Linda: ulwaphulo mthetho? Ngaphambi kokuba sibe nexesha lokuqagela, sidibana noMariya eneminyaka engamashumi amabini (uTatiana Maslany), kunyango kodwa engakwazi ukuyeka ukukopela umyeni wakhe. Hayi, ngaba ukunyanzela kwakhe kukhokelela kulwaphulo-mthetho? Le letts yenzayo ngobuchule icocekile. I-Hopscotching ukutyhubela amashumi eminyaka, ulawula ukuhamba kolwazi kwaye ushukumisa umdla wethu okhulayo wokubona ngokupheleleyo umfazi ngokupheleleyo.
Ubuncinane, yile ngcamango. Ukuziqhelanisa, umlawuli uLila Neugebauer's onzima kakhulu kwimveliso kunye nokusikelwa umda kokuma ngokuthe ngcembe kunciphisa utyalomali lwethu kuMary. Nantsi i-précis, endiyibeke ngoncedo kulandelelwano lwamaxesha: utata we-WWII vet o-boozy, umama unxilile, uqhekekile ekhaya, umtshato, abantwana, ukrexezo oluthambileyo, utywala, unyana uba yingxaki, imitshato emininzi, i-DUI ephantse yabulala umntu , ejele, ukwaluphala kunye nokufa (mhlawumbi umhlaza). Uvuyo olukhulu kunye nentlekele akufuneki zenze ukubonwa buthuntu. Kwaye okwangoku, xa iqhawe lakho liyinto engacacanga, kunjalo.

Ezinye zezi ngxaki zinokuncitshiswa eqongeni. Bali-18 abadlali kule mveliso, uninzi lwabo lubonakala kwindawo enye nganye. Ngoku, ndiqinisekile ukuba abaninzi bafumana ixesha leCandy Crush Saga esemaphikweni, kodwa kuyinkcitho kwaye kuyacaphukisa ukusebenzisa abadlali abaninzi kangako. Ukuphinda-phinda kathathu nokuphosa kathathu kunokuba kongeze ukuhambelana kunye nokuvakala kwesandi. Kwaye xa unabadlali abagqwesileyo njengoPourfar, uBrown kunye noMaslany, kuya kufuneka ubanike ngaphezulu kweziganeko ezimbalwa zokuqhubela phambili umsebenzi wakho wokubhala omncinci.
Imveliso ebonakalayo yindawo ethambekileyo, enamacala amabini (enziwe nguLaura Jellinek), enefanitshala ebaleka nokucima, kodwa ayithethi kakhulu ngaphaya kwamahla ndenyuka. Itafile yomculo esekupheleni (equlunqwe nguBray Poor), inika isiqabu sononony kwi-monotony yencoko yabantu ababini, kodwa ikwacebisa ukuba yonke iprojekthi ingangcono njengomjikelo wengoma.
Iileta zinobuchule kakhulu kumbhali kumdlalo ngamnye kunye neepaseji ezingakhanyisi zodwa, kodwa onke amagqabi akushiya ungonelisekanga. Kubuhlungu, kuba UMary Page Marlowe Ifilosofi yokuhamba phantsi kwefilosofi enesakhono: Akukho mntu okanye amandla alawula ikamva lethu, kwaye sicinga ukuba sidityanisiwe, kodwa sidlala iindima ezininzi ebomini. Ndicinga ukuba unokunika ii-Letts ngetyala ngovavanyo olungenakuphumelela. Ubhala umlinganiswa ophambili ongenzi nto kunye noqhekeko, umdlali okwibali lakhe. Ndandihlala ndicinga ukuba ndingumntu onamandla, uyavuma uMary ngeenyembezi, edilika phantsi. Ngumzuzu onamandla kumdlalo odlalwa ngabo, kodwa yenza kuphela ukuba unqwenele ukuba bekukho uvuthondaba olungakumbi, izizathu ezingakumbi zokuba neengcambu kuMariya. Ukucinezela ukonwaba okumangalisayo ukugxininisa ukungalawuleki kobomi, uLetts waphumelela okuthile, kodwa andiqinisekanga ngokupheleleyo ukuba kufanelekile.
