Hud
The man with the barbed-wire soul.
Overview
Hud Bannon is a ruthless young man who tarnishes everything and everyone he touches. Hud represents the perfect embodiment of alienated youth, out for kicks with no regard for the consequences. There is bitter conflict between the callous Hud and his stern and highly principled father, Homer. Hud's nephew Lon admires Hud's cheating ways, though he soon becomes too aware of Hud's reckless amorality to bear him anymore. In the world of the takers and the taken, Hud is a winner. He's a cheat, but, he explains, "I always say the law was meant to be interpreted in a lenient manner."

You're an unprincipled man, Hud. Hud is directed by Martin Ritt and adapted to screenplay by Irving Ravetch and Harriet Frank Jr., from the Larry McMurty novel Horsemen, Pass By. It stars Paul Newman, Melvyn Douglas, Patricia Neal and Brandon de Wilde. Music is by Elmer Bernstein and cinematography by James Wong Howe.

Study of a creep. I don't want to be a spoiler, but that's what the movie is. And it's done in a very flowing way.

The others are Hud, played by Paul Newman, his father, played by Melvyn Douglas, and his nephew played by Brandon de Wilde. Hud is vicious and selfish to the max. His father tries to get him to reform. At first we see this through the nephew's yes of innocence, thinking Hud is just a misunders…

Although he takes top billing here, it isn't actually Paul Newman's eponymous role that stands out for me here. That would jointly be Patricia Neal's long suffering 'Alma" and Brandon De Wilde's naive and innocent "Lon". The latter lad is the nephew of "Hud" and all live with his grandfather "Homer" (Melvyn Douglas) on his cattle ranch. "Homer" is a decent cove, "Alma" is their housekeeper and "Hud" - well he just boozes and womanises his way through life with an engaging aptitude that seems to …
