1) Why are two scenes of Lulu omitted from the movie?
Two scenes of Lulu if omitted from the movie then it normally has no such differences that one can find there.to give the particular shape to the work also writer may be prefer to include extra things & reduce something that burden the content part of the work.another point can be there is as i think of Lulu's personality that has no such significance to carry out the flow further with some special effect.
As Anton Chekhov told something can relates here that if starting part is points out on The Gun on the wall then it should be blast or resulted till the end anyhow.
It means no single word should be there that may disturb the work of art it can be connect here where repetition omitted intentionally may be or meaningless act may keeps away from the central focus.

2) Is movie successful in giving us the effect of menace? Where you able to feel it while reading the text?
We can see the effect of menace in the movie, because while reading the play felt that Stanley has a mysterious past which we are not informed about. I felt this while reading the long conversation between McCann, Stanley and Goldberg.
3) Do you feel the effect of lurking danger while viewing the movie? Where you able to feel the same while reading the text.
Yes, I feel the lurking danger while viewing the movie. While reading the text when the party was going that scene particularly during that I feel lurking danger. I feel that now something will happen. At a time I also feel that this party is never going to end.

4) What do you read in 'newspaper' in the movie? Petey is reading newspaper to Meg, it torn into pieces by McCain, pieces are hidden by Petey in last scene.
Basically newspaper is symbol of connectivity between an individual and outer world. But here in this play it also gives the remembrance to Petey for his impotency by Meg’s insistence to him for repeatedly reading the incident (in newspaper) regarding the fragility of a woman. Moreover, it is torn into pieces by McCann. And in last scene his affords has been hidden by Petey. He tries to hide the whole incident.
5) Camera is positioned over the head of McCain when he is playing Blind Man's Buff and is positioned at the top with a view of room like a cage (trap) when Stanley is playing it. What interpretations can you give to these positioning of camera?
while seeing the film camera talks everything.thus when camera is positioned over the head of McCann when he is playing blind buff which demonstrates that McCann is at power position and is situated at the top with perspective of room like trap which symbolize that Stanley is trapped by stranger who were touching him.
6) "Pinter restored theater to its basic elements: an enclosed space and unpredictable dialogue, where people are at the mercy of one another and pretense crumbles." Does this happen in the movie?
Yes, it happens during McCann and Net Goldberg asking question which is meaningless and unpredictable. The room of birth day party and kitchen cover with so many objects. Even character don’t get enough space to move.
7) How does viewing movie help in better understanding of the play ‘The Birthday Party’ with its typical characteristics (like painteresque, pause, silence, menace, lurking danger)?
Sometimes we are tired with nonstop dialogues at that time we have to give the rest to our mind, so silence is necessary in the movie. Threaten of unknown presented in movie also and effects of light, some danger, fear also puts by Harold Pinter.
8) With which of the following observations you agree:
o “It probably wasn't possible to make a satisfactory film of "The Birthday Party."
o “It's impossible to imagine a better film of Pinter's play than this sensitive, disturbing version directed by William Friedkin”
I agree that the movie shows very well: “Pinter restored theater to its basic elements: an enclosed space and unpredictable dialogue, where people are at the mercy of one another and pretense crumbles.”

9) If you were director or screenplay writer, what sort of difference would you make in the making of movie?
If I was director I can't make any difference in the movie because everything going in a write way.
10) Who would be your choice of actors to play the role of characters?
I think the actors will be same as movie. Because the all the actors did well.
