In Then Harold Pinter appeared. short, I was hooked and couldn’t wait to have another crack at it. Oddly, it was not a play but a film that brought Pinter That crack was a long time coming, however. Though into my life. My beloved, late sister Josephine, five years I had the good fortune to see the original production of my senior, would occasionally ask me to go along with Old Times in London in 1971 and of No Man’s Land in her to “art films.” On one such occasion, we went to see New York in 1976—both unforgettable experiences—it was The Servant with Dirk Bogarde, James Fox, and an not until 1988 here in Seattle that I actually got to work irresistible little temptress, Sarah Miles.

But, then, which view more accurately represents a century that has seen two World Wars, countless other deadly confl icts, totalitarian regimes right and left, massive stockpiles of apocalyptic weapons, global depression, environmental threat, and the Holocaust? In an interview late in his life the playwright succinctly summed things up when he said: “Life is beautiful but the world is hell; it’s hell on Earth, as it were.” Still, despite the strange environments and hellish circumstances in which Pinter’s characters fi nd themselves, they positively relish being alive.
