A Streetcar Named Desire https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fe/A_Streetcar_Named_Desire_%281951%29.jpg/800px-A_Streetcar_Named_Desire_%281951%29.jpg Dir: Elia Kazan Genre: Drama Year: 1951 The only straight-up play-turned-into-a-movie in the Top 250, Streetcar really earns its spot here. I'm normally not a fan of such literal interpretations, but this film is Brando, Brando, Brando. Taking from his legendary Broadway breakthrough, he explodes onto the screen and quite literally changes acting forever. Vivien Leigh is also fantastic and the whole thing is just magical to watch. That's really all I have to say about this one. The entire selling point is witnessing perhaps the finest performances ever put to screen. --- "A more mature answer than I expected."~ Jakyl25 "Sephy's point is right."~ Inviso ...
