On this day, October 23, 1987, The Glass Menagerie, directed by Paul Newman, premiered in theaters. The film, based on Tennessee Williams’ classic play, starred Joanne Woodward, John Malkovich, Karen Allen, and James Naughton. Despite strong performances, the film earned only $895,000 at the box office, far below expectations.

Who remembers this one? What did you think of Paul Newman’s adaptation?
