Earlier after a disastrous schooling sojourn he found his true calling when he moved from Nebraska to NYC to join the "Actor's Studio". This school of acting propagated the 'method acting' under Lee Strasberg.

Talks to Stanley
In 'A Streetcar Named Desire,'Stella believes that although Blanche may have lied about things that happened in her past, she has always been honest about how she felt. Stella thinks that is what matters.

A good metaphor for this is when Stanley just shouts "Catch!" then throws some meat at her. The stage directions describe her crying out in protest but then after managing to catch it laughing breathlessly.
