Death Of A Salesman
"A powerful and magnificent classic!" -The New York Times
Willy Loman has spent his entire life believing he and his family are bound for greatness. Struggling day by day as a traveling salesman, Willy begins to lose touch with reality and loses himself in the past. Meanwhile, his family, including wife Linda and sons Biff and Happy, attempt to cope with Willy's self-destruction and the still-lingering ghosts of the past.
Arthur Miller's timeless Pulitzer Prize-winning play is brought to the screen with a powerhouse performance by Academy-Award winner Dustin Hoffman, who earned Emmy and Golden Globe Awards for his role. The stellar supporting cast features Kate Reid, Charles Durning, Stephen Lang, and in his first breakout role, John Malkovich as Biff, all guided by internationally acclaimed director Volker Schlondorff (The Tin Drum) and a haunting score by legendary composer Alex North (Spartacus).

Although at times it was long. Overall this was a good movie. Hoffman's performance was really great, and he really made the movie better. I much prefered the book; however, I would definitely recommend that you watch this movie. If you are interested in a movie about a family struggling to make ends meet this movie is for you.Great Show - Pandoros
