The end of desire is sadness

When the music stopped abruptly after the gunshots, the curtain of <> Riscarlett should have fallen, and Blanche took a streetcar named Desire, trying to cross Cemetery Street and reach the Paradise District. But when the beauty no longer has the courage and strength, what may be left is just the nostalgia for the past. The intertwining of desires for the past and awareness of reality may explain Blanche's neuroticism. Whenever Blanche initiates neurotic fantasies in the film, the camera is always pointed at Stanley, who is laughing at her with the corners of his mouth crooked. To the son of a Polish immigrant, Blanche is nothing more than a woman who "wears 50 cents rented clothes" and thinks she is the Queen of Egypt. He also once said to her, "I don't believe that there are people who don't know how good-looking they are." The tragedy of Blanche is that she knows how good-looking she used to be, so much that she can't even see what she looks like now. level. Vivien Leigh on the screen looked haggard, and when she lifted her confused "cat's eye" a little, the wrinkles on her forehead would appear. At the moment when the streaming video changes, we stubbornly believe that the beautiful woman will stay on the screen like an image forever. But in reality, she was exchanged for a vain, rambling, neurotic lady at the end of the road. The flowers fall silently, and why should we hold on to the petals on the ground and give her a fragmented beauty.

7/10. It's really not worth it to be blocked by a friend for the issue of Vivien Leigh. Personally, I don't think it's convincing at all to let a handsome sexy idol like Brando rape such an old and ugly crazy woman with exaggerated and rigid acting skills. ! The whole film looks like a noisy acting, which is annoying, and it doesn't seem so "realistic" now, but Kazan is commendable in terms of moving the camera and scheduling the actors, and the broken scene is very thoughtful.

How does society force people who are sensitive but don’t want to follow the rules to destruction
