| Since I haven't seen this production, I don't know for sure that the line was cut. I've only heard/read that it has or had originally been. Regardless of whether or not the line's there, and regardless if its meaning has been changed in this production to make a statement that the community is lying, the physical action of Curly shooting Jud rather than Jud falling on his own knife is or was there, as I've heard from several people who have seen the production. It's still a changing of the story line and intention of the writers, which in this scene in this production have apparently been twisted. |
