| Had you ever seen the show before? Did you think that Charley was the central character? I am mystified — and obviously not alone in this — by the idea that Charley's role is "truly small." It's a show with three central characters, but if there is a single central character, it's Franklin Shepard. Did you know this before you saw it? Mary and Charley may well be regarded as major supporting characters rather than central characters, but I can't imagine how Charley's role comes off as "truly small." I have to guess that you went with the expectation that Radcliffe had the central star role. |
