Cat on a Hot Tin Roof: Difference between revisions

* [[Broken Pedestal]]: Brick is shattered that Skipper killed himself, showing he was not as strong as he thought he was.

* [[The Disease That Shall Not Be Named]]: Big Daddy has <s>cancer</s> a spastic colon.

* [[Double Standard Rape (Female on Male)]]: {{spoiler|the play ends with Maggie removing all of the liquor, locking it away, and then telling Brick she'll only give it back to him if he has sex with her.}} A mild case, but a case nonetheless.

* [[Downer Ending]]: The original ending was this. Later, Williams wrote a [[Bittersweet Ending]] at the insistance of the stage director, Elia Kazan. The published version of the play contains both endings, with Williams offering the reader to choose between them.
