A neglected masterpiece. Compare to the also great 1962 pared-down classical Greek version with Irene Pappas.

Great movie, in spite of the quality. Absolutely gripping. To be able to write a modern version of a classical Greek tragedy AND make the characters believable and compelling is quite an achievement. This made my week. Kudos to all the actors and Eugene O'Neill. Thank you for posting.

Thank you Luís Filipe Bernardes for the subtitles. This was trurly an amazing experience. After some research I found that this play is actually a retelling of the Oresteia by Aeschylus (ancient Greece). A phenomenal piece of media and defintely worth a watch if you have the time.

"The curse of the house of Atreus was one forged from murder, incest and deceit, and continued in this way for generations through the family line. To put it simply, the curse demands blood for blood, a never-ending cycle of murder within the family."

I saw this film 30 years ago, but I don't think I was mature enough to appreciate it. It is an incredibly powerful and complex tale. A modern version of a Greek tragedy.

Sordid. The daughter is demented. The wounded yet conniving wife despises the husband; and he is quite the unloveable tyrant except by the demented daughter. More than that just rushes them all down to doom. It’s the House of Atreus! Pure malice between all of them. Bound to end badly. Hard to care about any of the Mannons, as much as you might like to find something redemptive. Nothing. A total eclipse of the heart. Orin? As empty and queer as his name and as incestuous as his sibling. No hero he. Hazel and Peter had better get the hell away from these people. O’Neill is rough!

The sea is a constant leitmotif in O'Neill's works, and Mourning Becomes Electra is no different. He wanted a sea shanty that would resemble a dirge, and Shenandoah was the one he settled on. O'Neill wasn't concerned so much with the pernickety details of Union versus Confederacy, but rather with the broader emotional effect. His father had been a flamboyant ham actor of the old school, and that dedication to the emotion, even the melodrama, is far more important in O'Neill's æsthetic than a prosaic and rigid fidelity to minor detail.

I heard once this movie was not well received by American audiences who were put off by the subtle sexual tension the kids seem to have with their parents among other things. I think considering most Americans at this time only had about an 8th grade education, they just weren't intellectually affluent enough to appreciate such an adult version of these greek plays.
