But on the other hand, was actually his daughter Josie has long harbored feelings of love for James Tyrone, and vice versa.
After listening to the story line and conflicts that occur in this drama, I finally concluded that the drama is rooted in or removed from the two themes are united as a single storyline, in which the two themes into a powerful groove, which is about a cunning and hidden love. Can be seen clearly how cunning is depicted in the character of Phil Hogan, Josie's father. He put together a strategy to involve his daughter Josie to work together to trap James Tyron. They waited for an opportunity where James Tyrone drunk, then Josie will come to tempt James Tyrone to sleep with him. Where then Phil Hogan will sue to marry Josie James Tyron.
Each theme is taken up into a story of drama, of course there is a separate message to be conveyed script writer or originator of the idea of a story to penoton, either openly disampakan message mealalui dialogue in a conversation between characters in the drama or even own that we usually familiar with this type of drama monologue. Or was delivered melalaui storyline and the conflicts that exist in a dramatic storyline. As we can tanggkap in this drama, this play convey these messages to the audience more in a plot or storyline. And coupled with that theme became a hallmark or a character that is attached firmly to the character of Phil Hogan.
Then what is interesting themes like this and what exactly tersimpam message or messages to be conveyed from the theme of this drama to the audience? After listening to this drama I might catch some of the messages that this message was to convey the playwright Eugene O'Neill was in the audience.
Namely, that every crime or an evil plan that will always dikahalahkan by something good. And any good is if it is mixed with the bad will be bad. In the drama is definitely a good thing that is love, love that pent between Josie and James Tyrone. Can we see at the end of the story of this drama, in which in the end all is going according to plan evil Phil Hogan, in which when Josie run a scenario created by Phil Hogan with Tyrone and starts seducing them talk at length.

As a result of all the cunning that run Phil and Josie Hogan to trap James Tyrone, is the undercurrent of love Josie and James Tyrone was not able to come together united at last.
Moral Message:
That's the moral message that I can catch the theme of this drama, that all evil and cunning that will only result in harm to anyone. And that prejudice or suspicion about something, you should prove it first, so as not to bring us to the crimes that can lead to unwanted consequences, so that harm can harm other people, simply because our minds can not control to think clearly, and what more if it had been influenced by the state of mind was influenced liquor and get drunk, as happened in this drama.
Title:
A Moon for the Misbegotten is a title given to this drama by Eugene O'Neill. Initially I felt a little confused by this title, then I try to listen back to this drama, then I understand the title link with the groove plays. The title is actually a depiction of where the pieces of this drama are united.
A Moon for the Misbegotten. We can see from the core of this whole drama, namely the ending, where the atmosphere Katika it is night, night is identical with the moon, the moon of course is something beautiful. But that night something happens that is not cool is the "bastard" in the title. "Bitch" here is anything other than a desire occurs, or outside of the plans and there is not suspected, so the actual incident was not expected at all. A Moon for the Misbegotten, can we interpret where something undesirable happens, as we can catch on this play, where cunning is carried out by Phil Hogan terungkitnya ultimately failed by the actual reality on the night of the incident. Or more simply be interpreted as a beauty or a good or evil cunning. So the cunning or the crime is lost.
