![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I didn't like Dan Akroyd as Mitch, it seemed like a cheap episode of Rosanne and it bothered me every time he was on screen. Her performance was convincing but I certainly didn't share much sympathy with her unattractive yet dramatic appeal. This film seemed to rely more on characterization as Stella bearing the kind wife, and it portrays Lange as being more sly, a little more evil, and certainly more disturbed and wretched. ![]() This is the 90's and watching Lange finally get that beating could be a very exciting aspect to the film. Baldwin was good and convincing as the southern Macho man even though I wished they would show more sex and violence. Stella was portrayed as pretty and more attractive than the original and Blanche seemed more weak, disturbed, less attractive and less cute. This version held nothing back, the attractiveness and violence of Baldwin, the insanity and and unfortunate character of Jessica's Blanche, and the kind weak, 50's wife Stella. Unlike the original Streetcar Named Desire, this version does every line and place of location according to the script that Tennessee Williams made for his play. ![]()
