A Streetcar Named Desire is the story of a southern belle, Blanche Dubois, who, after encountering a series of personal losses, leaves her aristocratic background seeking refuge with her sister and brother-in-law in a dilapidated New Orleans tenement. She doesn';;t understand how Stella, who is expecting her first child, could have picked a husband so lacking in refinement. Stanley Kowalski';;s buddies come over to the house to play cards and one of them, Mitch, finds Blanche attractive until Stanley tells him about what kind of a woman Blanche really is.
