About Hud
An uncompromising portrait of a despicable heel, Hud Bannon (Paul Newman), a callous, greedy, selfish, and cynical son of a highly principled cattle rancher (Melvyn Douglas) in 1960s Texas. Patricia Neal and Melvyn Douglas took home best acting Oscars for their roles, while the film became cinematographer James Wong Howe's second win and eighth nomination. Adapted from the Larry McMurtry novel Horseman, Pass By. [112 min; drama, western; English]
"Newman is at his very best, and the cinematography is backing him up every step of the way. Must-see material." — Adam Smith, Empire
"We have not before encountered a man so immured from humanity as the Hud created by Paul Newman, so completely uncaring, so alien—and yet (this is the singular achievement of this film) so very much among us, of our time and of our society." — Judith Crist, New York Herald Tribune
"It’s a beautifully constructed western that proved that the genre could evolve beyond gunfights and female characters who were barely able to speak." — Zita Short, InSession Film
