People will always succumb to desire

Human beings have a limit. I think that, as a human being, it is impossible to defeat desire, completely idealistic. However, a person who advocates truth, goodness and beauty, the "beauty of music and the beauty of art" pursued by Blanche, and a person who advocates higher morality, even if he knows, it is impossible to completely get rid of the temptation of this desire, and he must not Give up on this, and be a person who completely surrenders to desires that you don't actually like. This is like a road without a cap. On the road, idealists can resist desire, pursue morality, pursue art, and pursue anything. They may be hit every day and declare failure, or they may be hit and declare failure after ten years. But still try to stand up. Moreover, what Blanche pursues is not just morality and upbringing. What she pursues is more, I feel, material and beauty. Her ideals seem to be rooted in the lowest desires. But whether morality is also a desire... I don't know. Life is like this. There are too many things that cannot be defeated and will not disappear after a momentary victory. The ideal should pursue, pursue, pursue, fail, pursue, pursue.
despise. This is a topic that the film also revealed. For people with different goals and different standards, which can also be commonly referred to as people with different views, a feeling of contempt will naturally arise in their hearts. There are many reasons for looking down. Maybe they really look down on them or disdain them. Maybe they convince themselves that they are inferior because of jealousy. Maybe because... But people are too complicated. , below the standard, but he has a very admirable side on the other hand, but everyone sees others as one-sided, and generally they are very one-sided, and they may be one-sided when they see themselves. Therefore, the natural emotion - this natural despise, should be rationally restrained. This kind of contempt, this kind of prejudice, is a convenient way for human beings to distinguish and stress, and it is also one of the biggest shortcomings of human beings. Of course, there is no one-size-fits-all solution, and if something happens suddenly, nothing will be rational. When the problem comes, let's solve it in various ways. There are too many contempt chains on various social platforms now, and I don't like some people's aesthetics and some people's tastes. However, don't cover one small aspect to the whole person. I've made too many mistakes like this before. What is a friend, someone who is like you in a certain way, someone who is like you in most aspects. If it becomes impossible to communicate and reach an agreement in too many aspects, it is better to walk away.
Sometimes I wonder, is it useful to think about these questions? It's fun anyway. Because there is no right or wrong in these questions. If right or wrong, humans should have evolved more. Like the Solarians at the base. In fact, the current morality, aesthetics, etc. will one day be completely broken, but after all, living here, to abide by, we can only wander in these rules. What nonsense am I talking about...

    There is a kind of magic in this man, like the preference of the creator, which is a legend in itself. At that time, the gossip with Lawrence Oliver and Vivien Leigh was not inferior to the movie.

    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 joke)
