Delusion of Elysian Fields
The book is really absorbing but at the end I can't help myself asking "Why the author wrote this..?"
Life has been so harsh and miserable to Blanche that I can't blame her sleeping with her student. She already paid for that. Some may say that she's been too rude to her brother-in-law but Stanley IS a common. He punched his wife just because she was a interference to him playing a poker game. Even considering this was wrote in 1940s, this violation is the thing that can't be condoned.
As I cannot understand why this is that popular among American - it also won the prize!- I googled a bit to find out its attractive point and found out an interesting article. It has turned out that Stanley's animal-like attractiveness is the one! Gaudy seed-bearer, the author depicts Stanley. This is also the one makes Stella keep going back to him despite his violence on her.
I may gonna see the movie as I found out that the actor who played Stanley is super hot. His name is Brando and the article that I found above said, "He is in fantastic physical condition and wear T-shirrt - altered by costumers to be tighter than usual- that show off his physique." haha. Also it says the film based on the book was a step forward in the evolution of American movies, bringing audiences startling, raw emotion that they'd seldom seen on the big screen before. We have to keep in mind that the film was released in 1950s! Without boldly mentioning sex, it made spectators soak into the scenario and characters. Maybe this is why it was popular at that time.
