Walken + Sarandon best Stanley + Stella
Within the American Playhouse film Who Am I This Time? there is a production of 'Streetcar Named Desire' where Christopher Walken & Susan Sarandon's characters played 'Stanley & Stella' as well as the characters they played in the film. Anyway I swear, Walken & Sarandon were the best Stanley & Stella I've ever seen, even better than Marlon Brando etc. from the 1951 film version, because of their acting skills and chemistry. I wish they would've shown them in more of their production of 'Streetcar,' but for the context of Who Am I This Time? it was still good.
I'm wondering now if Chris & Susan actually performed the entire play for the extras who were the audience watching the play in the film, or just the key scenes from the play that they shown in the film? It would've been quite the unbelievable treat to see those two in a production of 'Streetcar' performed on a small midwestern HS stage in 1982.
