A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE
January 12, 2013  | By David Bianculli

TCM, 10:30 p.m. ET

 
The second part of tonight’s TCM “sibling rivalry” double feature, this 1951 movie classic features Southern sisters: Blanche, played by Vivien Leigh, and Stella, played by Kim Hunter. Between the two of them, of course, is Marlon Brando’s Stanley, whose performance here, as on Broadway, changed the style of acting for every generation since. Elia Kazan directed this brilliantly sexually charged film version of the Tennessee Williams play.
