The Man Who Had All The Luck
''The Man Who Had All the Luck'' is a play by Arthur Miller, his second major play (after '' No Villain''). ''The Man Who Had All the Luck'' follows protagonist David Beeves’ existential exploration into the enigmatic question of how fate and the human will interact with each other. The play takes on a fantastical, parable-like architecture in its plot construction and character development as it follows Beeves into three and a half of the luckiest years of his life. The story begins during an evening in April at an undisclosed Midwestern town, evoking a feel of nostalgia and Americana in the process. ''The Man Who Had All the Luck'' failed on Broadway, lasting only four performances. Afterwards, Miller wrote '' All My Sons ''as a final attempt at writing a commercially successful play; he had vowed to "find some other line of work" if the play did not find an audience. Plot David Beeves is a young Midwestern automobile mechanic, who discovers he is blessed with what appear ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Bartlett created the pilot episode in his living room in 1994 and official production began in 1995. The animators worked to transform Arno ...
