The critics were a bit mixed on director Simon McBurney's high-concept staging (which includes substantial use of special effects, projections, film elements, dramatic music, and a large ensemble employed in Greek chorus style...all very effective in our opinion), but most agreed that this is a very strong revival of very good play.
Further consensus emerged on the fact that while Ms. Holmes (who does well enough) may be the draw, the notable performances here are from three Broadway veterans - John Lithgow and Dianne Wiest as the couple at the center of the drama and Patrick Wilson as their son.
According to the production's press office, Miller took his inspiration for All My Sons (which won a Tony award for the author in 1947) from a true story about a successful business man who knowingly sold the government defective airplane parts during World War II with tragic consequences.
Interestingly, many believe this play's critical view of the American Dream is one of the reasons Arthur Miller was called before the House Un-American Activities Committee during the Red Scare era in the 1950s.
