A Streetcar Named Desire - member of the industrial, inner-city immigrant class. In the first stage versions, Marlon Brando starred as Stanley, Jessica Tandy as Blanche, Kim Hunter as Stella, and Karl Malden as Mitch. Brando portrayed Stanley with an overt sexuality that made Brando, Stanley, and Tennessee Williams cultural touchstones. The play opened on Broadway on December 3, 1947. Brando's magnetic performance tricked audiences into rooting for Stanley in the opening scenes of the play, effectively implicating them in Stanley's eventual brutality towards Blanche. Blanche Dubois is a fading southern belle whose pretension to virtue and culture only thinly masks her nymphomania and alcoholism. After her ancestral southern plantation is "lost" (due to the "epic fornications" of her ancestors), Blanche arrives at her sister's house, in the French Quarter of New Orleans, where the multicutural.

Crime film - was filmed in 1942 the protagonist's wife accompanied her husband on his dangerous trip, whereas in Ambler's novel she stays at home and is only present in his thoughts (and heart). What is more, screen villain Orson Welles, who co-authored the script and co-produced and co-directed the movie, was given a role as Colonel Haki, the sinister police chief of Istanbul, which was larger than Ambler had originally intended it to be. Again, for some strange reason, the ending -- but not the outcome -- of the film is wildly different from the novel.
