The Winslow Boy (Imprint Collection #15)
David Mamet's brilliant adaptation of the THE WINSLOW BOY is a rich and complex telling of the British classic, brought to life by a superior ensemble of talent. The story follows the lives of the Winslows, a banker's family living in turn-of-the-century London, as they fight to prove the innocence of their youngest son accused of theft.
After Sir Robert Morton, a respected lawyer, agrees to represent the boy, the case becomes a national spectacle and threatens to erode the family's bond. But, even as the legal circus engulfs the Winslows' lives, self-discovery and blossoming romance round out this period masterpiece filled with shimmering hope, wit and humanity.
Critic Reviews:
- " An intelligent and very satisfying work of art. " – Michael Dequina
- " Arthur Winslow and Sir Robert Morton are as ruthless in their way as the real estate salesmen in Mamet's Glengarry Glen Ross are in theirs. " – Sarah Boslaugh
- " A thought-provoking and ethically charged tour de force based on Terence Rattigan's 1946 play. " – Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
