Blanche's shock at the sordiness

the initial standard of Kazan S
ruthless realism. Through scene

to the final desecration and de-

brute force symbolized by Stanley.
There is eXquisitely matched
playing by Miss Leigh and Brando

key roles. both of which are
among the best in screen history.
Yet. as he usually does, Director
Kazan has wrought equally mean
ingful performances out of the
others, most notably Kim Hunter
as the resigned and realistic
sister, and of Maiden as the one
solid human who stood as

x
The film version of "A Street
Car Named Desire" is more than
story of a delicate girls defeat
by cruel and brutal circumstance.
1t is an X-ray of her moral de-
bacle.
At the center of the picture,
stands Miss Leigh as the tragic
heroine, and Brando as the brutal
symbol of her final degradation.
Both roles have been brilliantly
played before, but not like this.
This is duel between the deli
cate and the brutal, a frenzied
soul-scarring conflict whose equal
moviegoers have not seen before
and will not soon forget.
Williams and Kazan, author and
original director. have completely
preserved the integrity of
Blanche's bitter biography.
In Miss Leigh's portrait, they
show her as the final remnant of
the South'S old way of life. This
was lady in world that had
long ago neglected to provide for
her type. She dreamed of a safe,
happy marriage and met in mar
rage husband weaker than her
self. Yet where he could escape
degradation by shooting himself
when evil became unbearable. she
was too brave and fiery and COM
mltted to a belief in decency to
give up. She must stay and fight
until her spirit was crushed, her
body ravaged by her brutal
brother-in-law, and her mind de-
stroyed.
No Journey down was ever met
by a more passionate resistance
than Miss Leigh displays in the
role of Blanche. Her battle has
been lost when the film opens
with her quest for refuge in the
sordid slum where her sister and
crude, muscular husband live in
