streetcar

In the play "A Streetcar Named Desire", Tennessee Williams uses his brilliant writing to bring life to his characters in the story. I will be composing a character sketch on Stanley, one of the main actors in the play. I will focus on evaluating Stanley's ever-changing character traits in the role he plays. They consist of different moods that he demonstrates during the play: his aggressiveness, his love for Stella and also his rudeness and cruelty towards Blanche.

Let's begin by talking about the way Stanley's aggressiveness affects the climax of the play. During the scene when the boys were playing poker, Blanche and Stella come into the kitchen and, as a result, disrupt the games. This got Stanley very angry and violent. For this reason he got up and began attacking Stella. " Men: Take it easy, Stanley, easy fellow,--Let's all--. Stella: You lay your hands on me and I'll-"(57) This just proves what I was saying about one of Stanley's moods. His violence and the fact that he looses control of his actions is one characteristic which I didn't particularly like at all about Stanley. Here's another scene that really show's how mean Stanley really is. This scene depicts when Stanley gets into a fight wit


On the lighter side, let's think about another character trait of Stanley's caring side. I know it might not appear as such , but Stanley does love Stella a lot, in his own way. To prove it, here is another passage from the play: " My baby doll's left me!"(59) This little part shows that he cares for her, but there is another scene that will prove that all he want's is the best for Stella and himself. This quote is from scene two, when Stanley has a bad feeling about Blanche and her trunk. He opens it and finds a lot of things that a poor girl shouldn't have, so he's probably thinking that Blanche is just using Stella for the money and that Blanche is not sharing the money with her sister. That causes Stanley to get involved: " There is such a thing in this state of Louisiana as the Napoleonic code, according to which whatever belongs to my wife is also mine-and vice-versa."(41) Now, you might think that Stanley was just worried about the money and nothing else but he doesn't like it when people mess with his family as it says in this quote: "It looks like you have been swindled, baby, and when you're swindled under the Napoleonic code I'm swindled too. And I don't like to be swindled."(35) I think that Stanley's sense of loyalty towards his
