This Property Is Condemned

Film

 Sydney Pollack directs Natalie Wood, Robert Redford, Kate Reid, and Charles Bronson in this sizzling Hollywood classic, adapted by Francis Ford Coppola from the classic play by Tennessee Williams.

Depression-era Dodson, Mississippi, is particularly devastated with the arrival of Owen Legate, a railroad official with a pocketful of pink slips for the rail yard employees. When Legate appears on the doorstep of Alva Starr, the coquettish town flirt with plenty of big plans but nowhere to go, their ensuing affair enrages Alva’s distant, uncaring mother and ignites a town’s revenge.

Unbridled passion and fiery emotion pours out of the screen in this remarkable Pollack feature, also featuring a jazzy score from Kenyon Hopkins.

Hud

Film

Skool

 Nominated for seven Academy Awards (and winning three), HUD stars Paul Newman as the titular bad-boy cowboy, directed by the legendary Martin Ritt (The Molly Maguires).

Hud Bannon, a young Texas rancher who lives with his cattleman father and his hero-worshipping nephew, is an amoral, cold-hearted creature. When hoof-and-mouth disease shows up in one of the elder Bannon’s cows, the rebellious Hud and his respectable father find themselves at odds with each other.

Filmed on location in Texas, actors Patricia Neal (Breakfast At Tiffany’s) and Melvyn Douglas (I Never Sang For My Father) both won Oscars for their performances.

Acclaimed by critics and audiences alike on release, Hud is a must-see Western, packed with conflict and startling cinematography.
