I underestimated Tennessee Williams again, thinking that the too contrived and too dramatic personality and plot arrangement have achieved a universal dramatic effect, and Williams' strong expression of "vulgarity and brutality kills tenderness and graceful character" is only a one-sided revelation. The real shackles of Blanche's tragedy lie in the secular framework and she underestimate the power of self-denial
How to be as promiscuous as possible, how to be promiscuous, and how at the root of it all is Blanche's slender nerves and the incessant chatter of worldly numbness at the cost of emotional hypersensitivity.
What is the power of a woman? Tennessee Williams endowed Blanche with some magical qualities. After being raped, she took a shower and groomed herself. Waiting for the dreamer to save her. After seducing a random shy boy, she could happily try her lover. Her kind of rooted in The vitality of despair reminds me of the heroine of Red Murder. It would be an underestimate of Tennessee's expectations for idealists. Bound Blanche could have been a model of Maugham's pleasure-seeking, but the schizophrenic she was given to survive fits in with such a realistic open-ended ending.
Stella, bound by lust and children, stanley, bound by chauvinism and deliberate crulty, he lacks poetic enjoyment of cruelty, masculinity in a certain righteousness and incompetent rage full of violence, rapes his usual physicality while begging his pregnant wife to come home The nasty sister-in-law has indeed verified Blanche's prediction of his "subhuman". He is also supported by the extreme belief in a certain environment. Over the years, countless psychologists have conducted psychoanalysis on Blanche, but they have ignored who Stanley is. This level of extreme disgust led Williams to endow him with unreasonable cruelty? If it is a brutal drive based on reality, Stanley is not only the opposite of Blanche, but also the opposite of hypocrisy and people's reaction to civilization. Thrashing seems to be the way to go for all sensitive people. Good thing stanley can be anyone. The sooner he can give Blanche's pain, the better. Completed two ideologies in one of the simplest social units: a confrontation at home and the ending was never a comedy for that person
The play and modernity have created a generation gap. Stanley, as a second-generation immigrant, is full of the shadow of the early black marginalized culture in the United States, and the aristocratic southern aristocracy represented by Blanche also makes her anachronistic and decent image maintained. It seems reasonable to the Chinese audience as an aristocrat. The memory can be traced back to the group with the yellow flag. Facing this kind of artificiality and hypocrisy, they just lost their empathy for Blanche, but it is natural to return to the order that Blanche guarded in the 1930s when the story was created.
After watching this, I can suddenly forgive serious women. Like everyone, they just want to be loved, but the price is higher. It is neither pitiful nor hateful, but hopeless.
