For a fun little #throwbackthursday, tomorrow marks 2 years since our Streetcar Named Desire (1951) episode, featuring historian and author Foster Hirsch! Check it out if you haven't already! #streetcarnameddesire #ticklishbiz #oldhollywood #film
So fucking sad #tcmparty #streetcarnameddesire how she was bullied and pestered.
Amazing performance.
And that’s how we know she’s about to lose her mind. She’s still hearing that music box tune in her head. Just like Blanche in #StreetcarNamedDesire. #TheLocket #TCMParty
⬇️ A must-see for any actor. #streetcarnameddesire #TennesseeWilliams #EliaKazan #MarlonBrando #VivianLeigh

I’ve seen #StreetcarNamedDesire many times. But I just now noticed the saxophone hovering behind and over the bed where Stanley would have been (in their makeup sex scene following the “Stella! moment). That saxophone/sexophone as Stanley’s stand in. What a great touch! 🎷 #TCMParty

I’m probably projecting, but Blanche kind of strikes me as autistic coded.
Like I could see a production leaning into that, with her light sensitivity, her masking, etc. I would watch it, anyway.

I have officially thrown out three Tim Hortons cups without rolling up the rim. *sigh* I could've been a contender. I could've been somebody.

Man this double feature. I’m still recovering from the end of #StreetcarNamedDesire Here we go, everybody! #TCMParty #WhosAfraidOfVirginiaWoolf
Wait! So in 1953, the original cut of #StreetCarNamedDesire didn’t have the scene with Stella and Stanley? How do you get to him shrieking her name at the bottom of the staircase if that encounter is cut? Or did I misunderstand Alicia? #TCMParty
Technical glitch #StreetCarNamedDesire I think it was sound. We shall see!🧐
A superb film and an exceptional stage show; I saw it in London last year; it’s was gobsmackingly brilliant with #paulmescal as Stanley - it’s back in the west end this year; same cast - well worth seeing.

And Vivien Leigh did a great job with another classic Southern role: Blanche DuBois in #StreetcarNamedDesire. #TCMParty
632 Elysian Fields
Text from play placing Kowalski home at 632 Elysian Fields
Williams’s description of Kowalski home, which in no way matches actual building.
Surprised Kowalskis’ address is explicit— 5 blocks from my apt on same street! TW got it all wrong, no 2nd floor, no balcony, not on corner, how can upstairs & downstairs have “stairs that ascend to entrances of both”? Everything in #StreetcarNamedDesire is BS even geography! 😂🎭🧭
#dontbelievethehype
Marlon Brando here as the relatively gentle Stanley Kowalsky could most certainly get it. I mean, I'd give it to him for free. In fact I'd insist that he take it
#TCMParty #StreetcarNamedDesire
I'm not even able to watch it right now and I'm emotional. #StreetcarNamedDesire
