... Named Desire

Holy Crap!  I am pooped!  Just finished watching the play and it was... 3 and a half hours.  I am Physically and MENTALLY exhausted!  Totally understand if Gillian is exhausted and exhilarated after the show.



I have heard of this American classic but I have never read it and I didn't even see the movie with Brando and Leigh.  Now that I have watched this filmed stage version... I can see why this classic is considered timeless.

Watching Blanche slowly at first then quickly spiraling into a sort of inner madness is pretty heart wrenching and it hits a bit close to home.  No, it's not me but someone that I knew closely.

I can't think straight right now... need a bit of time to absorb it all.
