   Why is A Streetcar Named Desire based in New Orleans?

   • The New Orleans location sets off the jazz flavour that infuses the sultry, decadent atmosphere of A Streetcar Named Desire. However, this is only half of it; North understood these early jazz and blues elements and how to make them work within an orchestral music texture. The result goes way beyond just reflecting the N’Orleans setting.

   Was A Streetcar Named Desire based on jazz?

   • But the part of that Alfred Newman score that was jazz-based was source music only, meaning it came only out of such places as bars, cafes, shipyards and home gramophones. This was the only role in film that jazz knew right up until A Streetcar Named Desire came along. So why did things change?
