Based on the play by renowned playwright Tennessee Williams, this classic melodrama tells the story of Blanche DuBois, a woman from a decaying Southern aristocracy, who is pushed to move in with her sister Stella and her brother-in-law Stanley, a virile and aggressive man. The coexistence between Blanche and Stanley becomes increasingly tense, bringing the young couple to the brink of emotional and psychological collapse. A must-see to appreciate one of Marlon Brando's best performances.
