Un tranvía llamado deseo es una película dramática estadounidense de 1951, adaptación de la obra teatral de Tennessee Williams del mismo nombre, ganadora del Premio Pulitzer en 1947. Cuenta la historia de una bella sureña, Blanche DuBois, que, tras sufrir una serie de pérdidas personales, abandona su origen aristocrático y se refugia con su hermana y su cuñado en un ruinoso edificio de apartamentos de Nueva Orleans. La producción y el reparto de Broadway se convirtieron en película con varios cambios.

Tennessee Williams colaboró con Oscar Saul y Elia Kazan en el guión. Kazan, que dirigió la producción teatral de Broadway, también dirigió la película en blanco y negro. Marlon Brando, Kim Hunter y Karl Malden retomaron sus papeles originales de Broadway. Aunque Jessica Tandy interpretó el papel de Blanche DuBois en Broadway, Vivien Leigh, que había aparecido en la producción teatral de Londres, fue elegida para la adaptación cinematográfica por su poder de estrella[4].

Tras el estreno de la película, Marlon Brando, prácticamente desconocido en el momento del reparto de la obra, se convirtió en una gran estrella de Hollywood y recibió la primera de las cuatro nominaciones consecutivas al Oscar al mejor actor. En 1951, la película obtuvo unos ingresos estimados de 4.250.000 dólares en las taquillas de Estados Unidos y Canadá, lo que la convirtió en la quinta película más taquillera del año[5] En 1999, Un tranvía llamado deseo fue seleccionada para su conservación en el Registro Nacional de Películas de Estados Unidos por la Biblioteca del Congreso por ser “cultural, histórica o estéticamente significativa”.
