The analysis focuses on the comparative study of Tennessee Williams's original text and its adaptations in Elia Kazan's 1951 film and the 1993 restored version. It explores the artistic and medium-specific changes made in the film adaptations, along with the alterations imposed by censorship. The paper critically examines how these modifications impact the narrative and themes, providing insights into the relationship between literature and cinema, as well as the influence of societal norms on artistic expression.
