movie versions of our plays

That last scene from A Doll House that we watched can be found here. The entire movie is on Netflix instant, if you have a Netflix account. It's named A Doll's House and was filmed in 1973.

We are going to watch a version of Death of a Salesman in class, the 1966 made for TV one with with Lee Cobb and Mildred Dunnock. There are other versions though, like the 1985 film with Dustin Hoffman and John Malkovich. I personally don't like that version, but it was nominated for a lot of awards when it came out. And there's an old 1951 version that you can watch on YouTube.

And this is done as a joke, but the analysis at the end is actually good with some concrete textual evidence.
