Video 1 vs Video 2

As I watched the two video clips I noticed such a difference in the two characters. I think that Viven did the best job of fulfilling Tennessee Williams view of Blanche. "I have found it easier to identify with the characters who verge upon hysteria, who were frightened of life, who were desperate to reach out to another person. But these seemingly fragile people are the strong people really," which I believe is shown through Viven. Viven seems very frightened when she is left a lone with him which she should not be. Viven seemed very distant and not really coherent to what was going on.

Good post. Most people are leaning towards Viven because of the whole hysteria factor.
