RAT Collage

[NashGay@aol.com]

I'm not crazy about "collage" theatre. "The Civil War" was described as "an 
emotional tapestry through the Civil War."  I didn't see it but I bet that's 
why it didin't work.  Take "Private Ryan" as an example of how to show the 
emotions of war through a plot.  It wasn't a collage of WWII, it was a story 
of a mission to put several lives on the line for one life and how those 
lives dealt with that mission.  The "emotional tapestry" of WWII was in the 
background where tapestries do their best work in theatre (or film).
