Overly dramatic? Yeah at times. Bits of slow pacing? Sure I’d say that. A poetic and nightmarishly atmospheric story that’s stood the test of time because of it’s universal themes ingeniously executed by the truly extraordinary performances? Absolutely.
More like a play than a movie, but enjoyable all the same with the little twists.
As great as the performances are in this, I just couldn't get into this dull story.
Blanche is just the worst. Really great performances all around but the movie is a little too slow for me.
Well, that was disturbing. I felt uncomfortable with Blanche. Mental illness is a heavy burden. Obviously, Brando should have won an Oscar here.
