Résumé anglais Tennessee Williams disliked all the film adaptations of his plays even though they were all made by the most prestigious directors and produced by the major companies. The paper examines the various ways in which scriptwriters and directors transformed Williams's Broadway plays into movies aimed at the general public — from the rather faithful rendition of the theatre play to the more cinematic « opened up » version. Comparing and contrasting the plays and the films, the paper analyzes the consequences of the deletion or addition of scenes, characters and dialogues, and of censorship or self-censorship.
