   • Sarah Green, the co-producer of the film, is quoted as believing “Oleanna” is “the most feminist play David has ever written.

   What is the most illuminating value of 'Oleanna'?

   • The most illuminating value of “Oleanna” is that it demonstrates so clearly how men and women can view the same events through entirely different prisms. With all the best will in the world, despite a real effort, I cannot see the professor as guilty.
