The essay is going to deal with the 3rd scene of Tennessee Williams’ play A Streetcar Named Desire. The scene is important because the animal nature of Stanley and his bond with Stella becomes clear. Moreover, we recognize more and more Blanche’s loneliness, suffer and desire to be safe. ...
The scene starts with the view of pale coloured kitchen and four colourful men – Stanley, Steve, Mitch, and Pablo – playing poker. ... What is important in this scene is the “solid blues, a purple, a red-and-white check, a light green”. ... Especially Stanley’s brutality and wish to be boss appears at the beginning of the scene:
When I’m losing you want to eat! ...
Actually, in this scene the reader notices Stanley’s disrespect to his wife. Although there were several times at the beginning of the play were Stanley could be understood as dishonourable and rude man, the 3rd scene is a good example of the growing dissatisfaction and cruelty when Stanley is drunk:
[A chair scrapes. ...
Consequently, the bigger outburst of Stanley’s animalistic behaviour appears at the end of the 3rd scene. ... These colours , as all others in Tennessee Williams’ play, are symbolic. ... Their dialogue in the silence is the last in the 3rd scene of the play is.
