old post

Talk about a crazy situation to be in if your Maggie the cat stuck on a hot tin roof. On one side, she's got Gooper and Mae and on the other she's got Brick. In dealing with Gooper and Mae, Maggie has to sit through all the demonstrations that they put on, or rather how their kids put on. And for what!? Trying to win over Big Daddy so that they can have the estate for themselves. Maggie, feeling out of place, has to try to convince Big Daddy of the same, but without the assistance of Brick. And I would say that having to deal with Brick is a hard enough challenge to go through on your own.

In the movie, you can really sense the desperation between everyone towards the end of it. This is of course after everyone has found out that Big Daddy is actually dying. Gooper and his selfish wife Mae immediately bring out the paper work to Big Mama. But Maggie makes the ultimate desperation shot at the estate when she announces that she is pregnant with Brick's baby. And its nice to see Brick finally step up for his wife after all of her hard work and back her up in her lie in front of big Daddy.
