Madness of a different flavor permeated the screen adaptation of Tennessee Williams’ hit play A Streetcar Named Desire, and with White Heat, audiences saw aspects of human behavior previously denied them by Hollywood studios. This seldom-seen shot from the Elia Kazan production depicts the pivotal scene in which Stanley Kowalski (Marlon Brando) attacks Blanche DuBois (Vivien Leigh).

“I don’t want realism. I want magic! Yes, yes, magic. I try to give that to people. I do misrepresent things. I don’t tell truths. I tell what ought to be truth.”

STANLEY: Now what kind of a queen do you think you are? Do you know that I’ve been on to you from the start, and not once did you pull the wool over this boy’s eyes? You come in here and you sprinkle the place with powder and you spray perfume and you stick a paper lantern over the light bulb - and, lo and behold, the place has turned to Egypt and you are the Queen of the Nile, sitting on your throne, swilling down my liquor. And do you know what I say? Ha ha! Do you hear me? Ha ha ha!
