Arthur Miller really knew how to lay it on thick.

Why is it heroic for Daniel Day Lewis to leave his children fatherless? Why does Joan Allen feel the need to apologize for being cheated on? Why does everybody believe anything that follows the words “The Devil Says”? It’s the most devious Winona we’ve found so far and the one that leads to the heaviest Real Talk ever!
