Art and Censorship: Elia Kazan's Film "A Streetcar Named Desire" Compared to Tennessee Williams's Play Paperback – 6 June 2009

Conflicted on how I feel about this purchase, of course it’s a seminar paper so it’s not lengthy however the pages are not even double sided which shocked me.The contents are somewhat valuable and can be quite insightful dependant on what you wish to gain from it. It gives good context to the play and film, and has varying interpretations and links to use if you’re studying the play. It can ultimately show you why certain things were censored the way they were and adds an explanation as to why.But then again there seemed to be a few grammatical errors, it had some basic research and I just felt quite disappointed for the price I paid.These are typically aimed at students or teachers and I think the price for what you’re getting is quite extortionate. I would return the book if I could however I started annotating the first page and as soon as I turned it over I was surprised to see the lack of content.Nonetheless if you dont have much material to work from or struggle finding sources and interpretations, this can be very useful for you! Personally I just didn’t get much use from it.
