The analysis of the heroine is very thorough!
I'm sure Blanche wasn't the first, nor the last woman to live like this. Because it was certain, I felt chills from the bottom of my heart, and the slight chill froze me. I don't know whether a woman who lives like this is pathetic, pitiful, or ridiculous, maybe both! I wanted to say something, but the last words that Blanche said were always haunting in my mind: "No matter who you are, I always rely on the kindness of strangers." I imagined Blanche's expression at that time, I think She left with her usual extravagance, a little unease, and her dreams. I want to feel injustice for this ending, and I want to cry out for Blanche's final fate. After all, there is nothing wrong with this weak woman, and she didn't hurt anyone, but I saw that Blanche could still take her with her in the end. After Meng left, I still had the kindness of strangers I could rely on. I was relieved. I was even glad for Blanche. Who said this is not the best ending? After all, compared to this cruel reality, it is really fortunate that I can continue to dream and live in the small world I created. What I can't imagine is how long this dream can last.
Blanche, a woman who used to be beautiful and still has a little beauty, really didn't know whether all of this was a gift or a punishment. A woman who is always looking forward to romance and feels everything with her sensitive heart all the time. At the moment when youth, beauty, and love have all passed away, she has to live with the lies she weaved for herself one after another. among. In the first appearance of Blanche in the script, there is a passage that describes her as follows: Her hesitant demeanor and her white shirt and skirt are somewhat reminiscent of a white moth. However, a person who is so vulnerable in every way has come to a realistic place that makes people tremble, where she is like a naked person, every inch of weakness is under the gaze of others, the more she is She tried to cover it up again and again, but the more she exposed, the more lies she had woven for herself were uncovered, until the last act, which seemed to be a desperate struggle, was also mercilessly withdrawn by Stanley. Broken, so Blanche was considered mad, or relieved.
What we see at the beginning is an old Blanche, but she is like a 16- or 7-year-old girl, she seems to be a girl who is not familiar with the world, always showing a romantic mood, yearning for An unrealistic love. She was not driven by sexual desire or for a living, but simply a frivolous, unworldly girl with an instinct to please men, who moved among strangers, constantly flirting with them, while constantly emphasizing her gentleness and grace. Pure, in fact, she is not a girl, an old woman behaves like a girl, and brings only disgust and pity to people. It seems difficult for us to understand such a woman whose actions all reveal contradictions, but what we vaguely mentioned from the script, we can try to restore Blanche's past, maybe our understanding will be different. Blanche herself recounted her own love experience, she said that she had loved someone, but lost him. And the man she loved and lost might only be called a boy. As Blanche herself said, he was neurotic, weak, docile, not like a man's character, although he looked a little like him. Not feminine either—but—that kind of thing still exists. From here we can vaguely sense that Blanche's short-lived marriage is problematic, as she herself said: "I didn't know anything until we got married. I just know that I have let him down inexplicably, and I can't meet his ulterior needs! It's like he trapped in the quicksand and desperately caught me----but instead of pulling him out, I fell with him. Go! I didn't know about that. I didn't know anything about it. I just knew I couldn't help but love him, I couldn't help him, and I couldn't take care of myself. Then I found out. It was the worst-case scenario. I suddenly broke into a room I thought was empty -- but it wasn't, there were two people in it, the guy I married and an older man, his old friend for years...… "From this, we can infer that Blanche's husband is a homosexual. We affirmed this from her sister's remarks later. It is not difficult to imagine what a blow this was to Blanche, a girl who is so eager for love, What she has is a hopeless love, and what she loves is a person who is disappointed with herself. Even he and Ben have never loved Blanche. This is a fatal blow to her. When her husband committed suicide, it was painful. But it was left to the living Blanche forever. It was the gunshot that stopped her husband's young life and cut off Blanche's growth. From then on, she became an eternal girl, living in a self-made life. In the poetic world. She wants to get rid of the pain brought by the past, she needs love, and no one needs it more, out of this need she deals with men, of course, it is more because of her personality, and Flirting with men has almost become her habit, an unconscious behavior of hers, because of what happened to her, because she is Blanche, so she will not become a reality, she still longs for her ideal humane and romantic Take her away, not because she doesn't know the reality, but because she doesn't want to believe it or face it. Reality is indeed the cruelest truth to Blanche. Sadly, this truth cannot be avoided. As she said: " After Ellen's death, it seems that only a rendezvous with strangers can make up for the emptiness in my heart...I think I am out of fear; fear drives me to keep changing people, looking for protection one by one-----here, there- ----Most of them are unreliable places-----even finally found a 17-year-old boy, but-----someone wrote to the principal-----"This woman is morally wrong.

If the lie is not exposed, if Mickey can accept Blanche, if... But there are not so many ifs in reality, there are no cracks in this rocky world, and Blanche has nowhere to hide, it seems that there is no longer she can survive in reality corner, so she can only deceive herself. Even just kid yourself! If Blanche could be depraved, if she could not have so much moral sense, maybe she could live a less painful life, but she is not, and there are not so many ifs in her personality. So she had to live miserably, she lived with a sense of guilt, so she finally broke down, and I started to blame Blanche for not being completely depraved, does this woman who holds us know must be destroyed? Thank God she was mad, but also relieved. Since then, she can live in her own lies openly and aboveboard, and she can continue to weave her dreams with peace of mind. I am sincerely glad that she is crazy. Since the real world is like a hard rock, it is in another Find her a crack somewhere!
