A Streetcar Named Desire

39Leave it.

Adult, and too many men wanted to be the husband. That is reason enough to skip it.

The review

She has already lost the family estate when she shows up at her sister's in New Orleans. She still wants to be someone the world bows to. The husband is force, and the house is his. A sister is caught between them. I knew that shape, and it still sat badly.

There is sexual cruelty near the end. I will not describe it. This is not a family evening. A lot of men wanted to be that husband, and that fact sits on the film heavier than the acting. It tells the truth about force and about a gentility that cannot pay its way. It also recruited. I can grant the first and still leave it off the shelf.

Journal

Keep A Streetcar Named Desire in the record.

No house has filed a sentence for this yet.

Live Historic number 39. Yours can differ.

The glance

Industry and Piety and Republic and Temperance and Stewardship are the thin ones.

Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

Consider this

West Side Story

51 instead of 39

West Side Story is still a drama film, and it scores 51 instead of 39. What you gain is republic: A street is a public.

The eight

4
Industry
The house is his by force, not by a craft the story respects.
8
Household
Sister, husband, and a lost estate: the broken house is the life.
2
Piety
Wanting a bow is not conscience, and his force does not stop.
5
Courage
She risks the last house that will take her, and that house is his.
2
Republic
No town or law steps in; the apartment answers to force.
2
Temperance
A lot of men left wanting his part, so the want was fed.
6
Truth
The wish to be bowed to comes due, and the bill is the house.
2
Stewardship
Left behind: his rooms, her ruin, and a pose men copied.

They wanted a wild weekend, and the film never gives that weekend back.

The review

Four suburban men wanted a last wild weekend on a river a dam is about to bury. They got a trip they were not built for. The river was the point, and then it was not. One of them is changed in a way the film does not heal. That refusal to tidy the ending is the honest part.

Adult. Do not describe the assault, and do not make a contest out of who can sit through it. The dam was already going to spend the river for people who do not live on it. One of them carries that change home. If someone in the room goes quiet, stay with that, not the canoe.
