Modifier+comma之后要紧跟逻辑主语。。。

Ben正解。
1）你把in 1959提前的话，也改变了句子的意思，原句用的是In 1959限定的是 won the New York DramaCritics’ Circle Award这个事件
2）提前的话，In 1959就能统治整个句子的时间范畴，也就是说，会影响到and 后面的was later made movies...，换句话说，made movies这些事也是发生在1959年，获奖之后
3）一般破题的话，以Ben的说法就可以了。深究的时候可以考虑1）和2）

The first commercially successful drama 的逻辑主语是LorraineHansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun，这这里前者是后者的modifier，前句被逗号隔开时，逗号后面要看到的第一个词组就要是这个modifier的逻辑主语...
