If you loved On the Waterfront, try A Streetcar Named Desire

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Elia Kazan, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to On the Waterfront, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What A Streetcar Named Desire is

A New Orleans apartment, summer sweat dripping from the ceiling fan. A moth thuds against a naked bulb. One sister’s lace gloves melt into another’s work-rough hands, then pull away.
