Death of a Salesman
|
January 24, 1949 |
| The timeless Arthur Miller classic, directed by Elia Kazan, follows the desperate last days of salesman Willy Loman (Lee J. Cobb) as he deteriorates into a madness driven by the failure of his life. The story questions the honesty of the American Dream ideal and the worth of money and perceived success at the expense of family and emotional well-being. |
