AMY WRIGHT: 'LOOK AT THOSE 'PEE-CAN' EYES AND GO CRAZY!' [BIO + CLIP OF FAVORITE SCENE from WISE BLOOD [JOHN HUSTON , 1979: CRITERION DVD - finally!]

Wise Blood
As sexually frantic, Sabbath Lily,, Enoch Emory's [Harry Dean Stanton] righteous 15-year-old daughter, Amy Wright, reached heights of intentional overkill, akin only to a few Tennessee Williams' film adaptations, or possibly Olivier's role in Richard III.
With Criterion's DVD already in UK stores, and coming to the US, it will be possible for audiences, thirty years denied, to view Amy Wright and BRAD DOURIF's performance thirty thousand movies late, to find what made her great, but unfortunately obscure!Wright

Amy Wright gave up her position as teacher to pursue her dream in New York as actress. Elfin in quality with an intriguing, gap-toothed look, the child-like blonde actress found almost immediate reassurance as an apprentice at actor Rip Torn's Sanctuary Theater, making her stage debut in the company's 1975 production of "Agnes and Joan."Amy and her much older mentor (married to theater legend, Geraldine Page) began a clandestine personal relationship which produced two daughters.Torn never divorced Ms. Page. His longtime relationship with Amy was exposed shortly before his wife's sudden death of a heart attack in 1987.Amy and Torn married. [Amy appeared with both Torn and Ms. Page in August Strindberg's short plays "Miss Julie", "Creditors" and "The Stronger" in 1977 in repertory at the Hudson Guild Theatre.]Amy's sweetly countrified look and demeanor inspired a number of standout performances in quality productions.At age 26, she earned major attention on stage playing a crippled teen in a successful revival of Lanford Wilson's "The Rimers of Eldrich" in 1976. In 1978 Wilson wrote the stage part of 13-year-old, Shirley Tally in his acclaimed work, "Fifth of July," off-Broadway . The show made a spectacular transition to Broadway in 1980. In 1983 she shared the Drama Desk Award for her ensemble contribution in the comedy farce "Noises Off."Amy's debut filmMartha Coolidge's quirkyNot a Pretty Picture (1976),which led to minor roles inThe Deer Hunter (1978)andBreaking Away (1979)...
Bed-hopping groupie Stardust Memories; opposite John Savage, Inside Moves (1980); William Hurt's spinster sis, The Accidental Tourist (1988); Southern-baked beauty contest spoof, Miss Firecracker (1989); Jeff Daniels' soon-to-be-married sister, Love Hurts...Ignored by Hollywood and film awards, Wright continued as character actor, also making strong stage showings opposite the late Uta Hagen, in the Off-Broadway winner "Mrs. Klein" 1995...Other stage appearances include:

EnglishIn this acclaimed adaptation of the first novel by legendary Southern writer Flannery O’Connor, John Huston vividly brings to life her poetic world of American eccentricity. Brad Dourif, in an impassioned performance, is Hazel Motes, who, fresh out of the army, attempts to open the first Church Without Christ in the small town of Taulkinham. Populated with inspired performances that seem to spring right from O’Connor’s pages, Huston’s Wise Blood is an incisive portrait of spirituality and Evangelicalism, and a faithful, loving evocation of a writer’s vision.

Wise Blood: Flannery O'Connor - Professor Amy Hungerford [Yale University: The American Novel Since 1945 (ENGL 291)]
Lecture 03: Flannery O'Connor, Wise Blood Yale - THE AMERICAN NOVEL SINCE 1945: In "The American Novel Since 1945" students will stud...all »
"The American Novel Since 1945"(ENGL 291)
Professor Amy Hungerford's first lecture on Flannery O'Connor's Wise Blood addresses questions of faith and interpretation. She uses excerpts from O'Connor's copious correspondence to introduce the critical framework of O'Connor's Catholicism, but invites us to look beyond the question of redemption. What do characters see in this text, and what are they blind to? What do we see as readers, and how does methodology shape this vision?
