A couple of flop plays, a death in the family, and it could all collapse.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Once, the parental bed collapsed because all the children sat on it at once.
Flops are always disappointing, but 'High Fidelity' was devastating. Not that I thought it was going to make me a big star, but I did think it was going to run longer than a week and a half.
I wish I could remember how to write a play. I can't remember how they happened.
Plays are about understanding what happens, what it means. If we just leaned into the story, for lack of a better word, it would still be a powerful story but, like delight, it might disappear an hour after you saw it.
Tennis just a game, family is forever.
One of the best things that ever happened to me was Rocky Horror being a total flop in New York as a play. I mean, it was a disaster, and it was the night of the long knives as far as the critics were concerned.
I think, if I had a big flop, that probably it would have ended the string at Disney, but it didn't! Every film was a success.
Shakespeare is the outstanding example of how that can be done. In all of Shakespeare's plays, no matter what tragic events occur, no matter what rises and falls, we return to stability in the end.
Play is the exultation of the possible.
I had flops, I had success.
