Review of A Streetcar Named Desire (1951) by Josh Larsen for LarsenOnFilm — 30 Jul 2013
A Streetcar Named Desire works itself up into a hurricane of emotional chaos, yet ironically, as these final scenes give in to hysteria, Brando starts dialing down. Depending on your reading, that makes Stanley either remorseful or sinister.
Either way, he’s riveting. If Brando is calm at the end of Streetcar, that’s because he’s the center of the storm.
