The support cast (Maddy Christians as the mother, LouisaHorton as Annie) is better than the stars. A concise, understandable adaptation of Miller, a bit week in its climax.

All My Sons tells the story of Joe Keller, a successful, middle-aged, self-made man who has done a terrible and tragic thing. He framed his business partner for a crime and engineered his own exoneration. Now, his son is about to marry the partner's daughter, the affair is revisited, and his lie of a life is unraveled.
