Unfortunately, I can never erase from my mind John Simon's appraisal of Jessica Lange in STREETCAR: her performance is so small it could fit in a flea circus.

What does that even mean? Typical of John Simon: bitchy but not especially funny. Noel Coward or Kenneth Tynan he wasn't.
Lange is actually a great idea for this part but not without a major overhaul of the play.

That's a very funny line.

And absolutely true about that performance. But she's gotten so much better.

I was disappointed with her Amanda Wingfield. She really didn’t ‘fill’ the stage.
