The Fugitive Kind

Good opening scene for actors to study Marlon giving a monologue. He also has some great lines about birds.

25: He drives Joanne. She moves her legs seductively. They go to a new place, a bar. The birth of something new.

45: Marlon talks about life. "I'm not tired, I'm just fed up...there are two kinds of people: buyers and the ones who get bought...there's a third kind: the kind that don't belong no place. The kind that's like a bird that has to keep flying...they sleep on the wind...they just spread their wings out and go to sleep on the wind." Now that I'm aware.

60: Marlon tells Joanne "You take this to Birdy." Birds are heard loudly chirping as they talk. Joanne tells Marlon he's put on a nice uniform of a convict - a suit. Marlon: "Fly away. Fly away little bird before you get broke." There's no going back now.

-45: Marlon with Lady Torrance (Anna Magnani). Lady Torrance offers Marlon a room. Marlon: "Nobody gets to know anybody." Marlon enters the room and discovers a painting of a naked woman. Discovery.

-25: Lady Torrance cries, suffocating music dominates. A man tumbles down the stairs. Marlon carries him up the stairs. Later, Marlon helps a blind woman who falls, but a policeman arrives and treats Marlon with no respect. Later, at the end, Marlon will be forced by water hoses into a fire and Joanne, the bird, flies away in a car. The final turning point.
