Sairah Ali 12 DEV Can we view Stanley sympathetically in scene 3? However to be able to view Stanley sympathetically we need to understand his emotion and mentality, before we make a full judgment on him. I personally feel Stanley is a harsh character but I also believe he is pushed into doing such actions and I cannot help feel that if Blanche had not visited none of this would have happened. In this particular scene I do sympathise with Stanley and I will go into greater detail to explain why I commiserate with his character. Stanley Kowalski is a very interesting and controlling character, although the usual reaction is to see him as a brute because of the way that he treats the delicate Blanche. But this dislike would stem from too much identification with Blanche. Stanley Kowalski lives in a basic, fundamental world which does not allow any form of disruption....
