Cat on a Hot Tin Roof 

"Brick is an alcoholic ex-football player who drinks his days away and resists the affections of his wife. A reunion with his terminal father jogs a host of memories and revelations for both father and son."

Starring: Paul Newman, Elizabeth Taylor

Thoughts: This was one of the first Paul Newman and Elizabeth Taylor films I ever saw, and I was transfixed at how masterful they were. I have to confess that sometimes I find Tennessee Williams's work pretentious, but I was riveted watching these two swan around for two hours in smoldering misery.
