    She walked into the room, thinking that the men playing cards would follow the etiquette and stand up to greet the women. But rude they don't care about it at all - Blanche: Please don't stand up. Stanley: No one's going to get up, so don't worry. The root of the tragedy is not only the oppression of male power, but also the division of classes. So even if Blanche thumped the table and said, "I've already apologized," an Aphrodite woman like her could only go to...

    Theatrical adaptation, so the traces of the stage play are very heavy and almost uncomfortable, but the performance of the protagonist has a strong appeal and draws the audience's attention back to the film itself again and again. The success of this film is half due to the original book, and half to the original The performance of the actor and actress has nothing to do with the...

    95/100 Double-faced Blanche, when she is mentally normal, she is an idealist with a declining aristocratic culture, high attitude, and lack of secure attachment. When she is in a trance, she is an incoherent, rambling, self-destructive poor woman. The lies will forever defend her shaky self-esteem. This is definitely one of the most desperate characters in film history and the embodiment of an older gay man. (The last sentence is a...

    It's not the type of movie I like, but Vivien Leigh and Marlon Brando are so good, neurotic women who love vanity, vulgar and hateful men, three points. Although Vivien Leigh is old and fading in the play, I still think she is a...

    Blanche has "the limitations of the age and class" in all senses. She must always maintain her youth and beauty, and then practice the lady's virtues of reserved and balanced sentiment, so as to capture the respect and love of men, and it will be complete... …Otherwise she would have nothing. This attitude towards life has been the machine for female tragedies in ancient and modern times, and at home and abroad, the younger sister lived to understand that her appearance and family background...

    Leigh played Blanche so well, so well, so well that it hurts. It's terrifying that Leigh can let people see part of himself in such a character. Desire, vanity, lies, these words that accompany a woman's life, burst out so concentrated and...

    The questions and thinking about men and women will not start. Just agree with and practice Brando's line: I never say sweet words, similar to complimenting a woman's looks. I don't believe that women don't know if they look good or not. But there are still many people who are pretentious. Someone once told me that I was the most attractive woman, but so what. You know there are a lot of men with a mouth and a sword, some don't, and I belong to the latter. No woman can confuse me, I am simple,...

  • Blanche: Marry me, Mitch.

    Mitch: No, I don't think I want to marry you anymore... No, you're not clean enough to bring into the house with my mother.

  • Stanley: How about a few more details on that subject... Let's cop a gander at the bill of sale... What do you mean? She didn't show you no papers, no deed of sale or nothin' like that?... Well then, what was it then? Given away to charity?... Oh I don't care if she hears me. Now let's see the papers... Now listen. Did you ever hear of the Napoleonic code, Stella?... Now just let me enlighten you on a point or two... Now we got here in the state of Louisiana what's known as the Napoleonic code. You see, now according to that, what belongs to the wife belongs to the husband also, and vice versa... It looks to me like you've been swindled baby. And when you get swindled under Napoleonic code, I get swindled too and I don't like to get swindled... Where's the money if the place was sold?
