Abandoned by her husband, Amanda Wingfield comforts herself with recollections of her earlier, more gracious life in Blue Mountain when she was pursued by 'gentleman callers'. Her son Tom, a poet with a job in a warehouse, longs for adventure and escape from his mother's suffocating embrace, while Laura, her shy crippled daughter, has her glass menagerie and her memories. Amanda is desperate to find her daughter a husband, but when the long-awaited gentleman caller does arrive, Laura's romantic illusions are crushed.
Thomas Lanier "Tennessee" Williams III (March 26, 1911 – February 25, 1983) was an American playwright. Along with Eugene O'Neill and Arthur Miller, he is considered among the three foremost playwrights of 20th-century American drama.
After years of obscurity, he became suddenly famous with The Glass Menagerie (1944), a play that closely reflected his own unhappy family background. This heralded a string of successes, including A Streetcar Named Desire (1947), Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1955), and Sweet Bird of Youth (1959). His later work attempted a new style that did not appeal to audiences, and alcohol and drug dependence further inhibited his creative output. His drama A Streetcar Named Desire is often numbered on short lists of the finest American plays of the 20th century alongside Eugene O'Neill's Long Day's Journey into Night and Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman. Much of Williams' most acclaimed work was adapted for the cinema. He also wrote short stories, poetry, essays and a volume of memoirs. In 1979, four years before his death, Williams was inducted into the American Theater Hall of Fame.
這本描寫的傢庭關係要比A Streetcar Named Desire要讓我痛苦,因為Amanda對兒子女兒的束縛和期望讓人窒息,三人都在逃避現實,互相摺磨,這種傢庭關係要比Blanche的崩潰更有實感。而且Jim對自卑敏感的Laura的溫柔和善解人意之後在對其的打擊真是……令人絕望,不知道Laura最後會怎樣;還有Tom那句:People go to the movies instead of moving. 最後Tom還是選擇跟父親一樣瞭啊
評分I cross the street, I run into the movies or a bar, I buy a drink, I speak to the nearest stranger--anything that can blow yr candles out! -for nowadays the world is lit by lightning! Blow yr candles and so goodbye. *uneasy*
評分第二次讀。記憶劇,迴憶中的音樂,濃縮的象徵,對場麵調度的重視,讀劇本畫麵感非常強,呼之欲齣。真實的苦痛,三個人各自的逃避,黃水仙,藍玫瑰,鞋盒上的詩。最後的獨白令人心碎。吹滅蠟燭吧,勞拉,然後再見瞭。
評分(1944) R3 You manufacture illusions.

一、断电的灯泡,不愿醒的梦 光启,三十年代的美国中产阶级的生活环境便出现在了舞台上。 温菲尔德家住在一栋楼房的后部,面对着喧闹的歌舞厅,进出靠一架救火梯。我猜想这救火梯或是田纳西·威廉斯青年时代的深刻记忆,要么是对温菲尔德一家生活状况的诗意嘲讽——“因为所有...
