| | Talkin' Broadway Off-Broadway - Random Harvest - 6/25/01 |
 | | The actress, who starred opposite Greer Garson and Ronald Colman in the 1942 film Random Harvest and died of starvation ten years later, is one of the subjects of Richard Willett's new play, also titled Random Harvest, which opened last night at the HomeGrown Theater. |
 | | Aaron's husband, Jimmy (Jay Alvarez), determines that Aaron's sleep-talking is referring to the film Random Harvest, and as Aaron learns more about the movie and the real-life tragedy behind Susan Peters's life, he becomes obsessed with understanding it, and working to bring to her life the satisfactory conclusion it otherwise never had. |
 | | The characters in Random Harvest all must face their own limitations, and Willett's script, though occasionally clouded in its insight, asks us to do the same. |
