A "Lifetime" Play

As I sit here watching some overly dramatic Lifetime movie (yes I am one of those women) I can't help but think about the play that we just read for the last pod. I feel like A Streetcar Named Desire would make a perfect Lifetime movie. There is so much drama incorporated into one story it screams Lifetime. The relationship between Blanche and Stanley is one that has been done time and time again in many movies that appear on that network. I think we should all get together and film this a movie version of this play! What do you guys say? Maybe I am taking it a little too far, but the idea is definitely valid. If any of you have seen a movie on Lifetime I think you would agree with me. Family quarrels, relationship problems, abuse, depression; all this are ingredients for a standard Lifetime Movie, and in my opinion A Streetcar Name Desire meets that criteria. I can see it now.....Mrs. S's American Literature class presents the new Lifetime movie interpretation of Tennessee Williams play A Streetcar Named Desire. Maybe I'm taking this one a little too far....I guess I need to cutback on the Lifetime (:

  1. Count me in! I always wanted to be in Drama Club but I was just too darn shy. So here I've sat all these years with so much pizazz that the world needs to witness... Oh wait, I'm 37 years old and kinda tired. Well wait, I suppose I could play the upstairs neighbor. Mrs. S-Let's start a Drama Club because I'm bored! Let's only do it in the summer though.

  2. What fun! I like Lifetime Movies too, but I haven't watched on in ages. Maybe sometime this summer, on a rainy afternoon....
