David Mamet’s sleek adaptation of Granville-Barker’s 1905 play feels as if it were written yesterday. When Edward Voysey learns of his father’s corrupt dealings within the family business, he knows there is only one ethical solution. But his moral stance conflicts with his siblings’ fierce defense of their incomes and the family name. This drama of manners marries the wit and passionate dialogue of George Bernard Shaw with the ethical conflicts of Arthur Miller.
