About this Quote

This quote by Fred Ward speaks with the complexity of the play he and Ed are dealing with. It suggests that the play has to do with more than just who is informing the reality and who is lying. It has to do with the much deeper level of intimacy in between old good friends that is exposed in the play. This intimacy is something that is frequently neglected in the middle of the drama and lies that can be discovered in a play. It is a special bond that is shared between 2 individuals who have understood each other for a very long time and have a deep understanding of each other. This quote talks to the importance of this bond and how it can be utilized to create a powerful story. It is a pointer that there is more to a play than simply the surface area level drama and that there is a much deeper level of emotion and connection that can be checked out.
