Paul Newman plays Hud, the dark sheep of the Bannon family whose careless and egotistical ways constantly alienate him from friends and family alike (and turn him into an anti-hero for a generation of rebellious boomers in the process). Grand B&W cinematography highlights all those dusty Texan landscapes while a pair of Oscar winning performances from Melvyn Douglas as Hud's glowering patriarch and Patricia Neal as the lonely housekeeper keep the rest of the cast grounded. An American classic.
