" Notes: To be honest, it has been ages since I have seen this flick and I should definitely re-watch it at some point. In fact, if I recall it correctly, I actually read this play when I was studying English in college. Anyway, it is such a fascinating tale and a major milestone in motion picture history. Indeed, not only Marlon Brando, probably one of the best actors that ever lived, got his breakthrough with this movie, but it was also the birth of a new acting method or, at least, it was wit"

The problem was, given the rigid and puritanical production code governing Hollywood at that time, many of Williams' themes and subjects were a trifle close-to-the-bone for a censor that wouldn't allow images of married couples sharing a bed!

"First viewing - Jan. 13th Ok, so I know I said my main focus this month would be 2017 films, but Showbox has been working against me lately & sometimes I need some older fare. I've fallen back into the routine of picking up movies from the library, so I figured it was time to finally cross this one off my list when I spotted it. The acting is excellent across the board, which surprises no one. The story is compelling enough that I was able to hang with it, and I truly had no clue where it was"
