DESIRE! "No nice girl has those feelings," Deanie's mother told her. Bud's father said, "When you feel that way, son, find another kind of girl." Confused by their elders, frightened by their own turbulent desires, a boy and girl are caught up in a maelstrom of passion, tragedy and violence in William Inge's powerful new story. SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS is a memorable motion picture, produced and directed by Elia Kazan, original screenplay by William Inge, a Newton Production starring Natalie Wood and introducing Warren Beatty. From inside front SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS is the first story written especially for the screen by William Inge, major American playwright. Frankly and sensitively he captures the joy and terror of awakening passion. He shows how the love of a boy and girl can be perverted--twisted out of beauty and meaning by the corrupt values of their elders. Book is written as a play.
