Brick, whose tippling has resulted in a broken leg, is always physically present, with crutch and cast, but his mind...
...just starting to show signs of deterioration. Three pairs of floor-length lace curtains catch the wisps of breeze and a variety of colors from the fireworks in the garden. In the center of the room, where it belongs as a major bone of contention, is a large double bed. I am reminded of the blooper committed by a TV announcer promoting the showing of the play's film version: "See Elizabeth Taylor and Paul Newman in a Cot on a Hot Tin Roof." No, it's got to be a double bed...
