Comedy Editorial Review
The playwright David Ives' adaptation of the novel 'Venus in Furs' was highly appreciated by the critics and readers. One reader appreciated the written play more than the movie, and felt impressed by the writer's thoughts that went into it. The play was found deeply symbolic yet cleverly explained for the readers who had trouble with symbolic works. Another reader found it to be a masterfully crafted drama that explored the subject matter of masochism, sexuality and various other aspects. Though some readers found it hard to understand due to the lack of familiarity with the original novel, it was still an interesting and thought-provoking read.
