dbo:abstract
  • Taurons (en anglès Speed-the-Plow) és una obra de teatre del 1988 escrita per David Mamet, que és una dissecció satírica del negoci cinematogràfic estatunidenc. Tal com s'explica a The Producer's Perspective, "aquest és un tema que Mamet revisaria a les seves pel·lícules posteriors La cortina de fum i ' (2000)". Tal com se cita a The Producer's Perspective, de Newsweek descriu Taurons com "un altre poema simfònic del mestre més important de la nostra nació en el llenguatge de l'epilèpsia moral." L'obra estableix el seu context amb un epigrama (que no es pot recitar a la representació) de William Makepeace Thackeray, de la seva novel·la , continguda en un frontispici: Comença: "Qui és el més raonable i fa el deure millor: el que és al marge de la lluita de la vida, contemplant-la amb calma, o qui baixa al terra, i pren la seva part en el concurs? ". (ca)

As quoted in The Producer's Perspective, Jack Kroll of Newsweek described Speed-the-Plow as "another tone poem by our nation's foremost master of the language of moral epilepsy." The play sets its context with an epigraph (not to be recited in performance) by William Makepeace Thackeray, from his novel Pendennis, contained in a frontispiece: It starts: "Which is the most reasonable, and does his duty best: he who stands aloof from the struggle of life, calmly contemplating it, or he who descends to the ground, and takes his part in the contest?" The character of Bobby Gould finds himself on both sides of this dilemma, and at times in the play he "stands aloof", and at other times he "takes part" in life's contest, with its moral strictures.
