Whether it's in the play or in the performance, I really like the character creation in it!
Stanley Brando played by Marlon Brando is really irritating and hateful. He really fucked up the solidified thinking, masculinity and uncontrollable rage of the bottom people!
Marlon Brando in the 1950s was already acting with a completely realistic aesthetic. This is influenced by Steney's performance aesthetics. Marlon Brando studied acting at the Actors Studio, co-hosted by directors Ilya Kazan and Li Strawski. His teacher was Stani's pupil Stella Adler. So in that sense, he's Stani's grandson, and so is Robert De Niro. So you compare their films carefully, and their performance aesthetics are the same.
Blanche, played by Vivien Leigh, is a multi-dimensional character with a very strong tragic color. From the perspective of performance shaping, Vivien Leigh's performance is very thick. But in terms of performance aesthetics, she and Marlon Brando are not unified, it is a collision of two aesthetics. Vivien Leigh was influenced by the teaching of the Royal Academy of Drama. Many actors in the film still use the traditional theatrical performance aesthetics. But for that period, there is no good or bad, it belongs to the exploration of various aesthetics. In later developments, the aesthetic of realism was generally accepted. There is no doubt that Stanislavsky laid the foundations of the world's modern performance aesthetics.
Last but not least, the story climax created by this movie really hit me!
When Blanche was driven insane and the psychiatrist came to take her to the hospital, I was thinking, if Blanche committed suicide in front of everyone, to fight this cold-blooded world and let all the "final" It should be a very shocking climax. Then I wondered what ending could be more powerful than suicide? What is the opposite of suicide? Before he could think of the answer, he saw the doctor walking over to take off his top hat very gently and gently, and stretched out his arm to signal her to hold him. Then Blanche said, whoever you are, I always have to rely on kind strangers. Then he walked away holding the doctor with his head held high. Wow, I was totally blown away! This is the opposite of suicide, a story climax of great inner strength!
