Paul Newman as an almost no good rancher shines in this tale of a man with a wild streak. Patricia Neal as the housekeeper took Best Actress Oscar in a very worthy performance. Melvyn Douglas as Hud's father, a decent rancher took home the Supporting Oscar. This was just one in a long string of Newman hits from the fifties all the way to the nineties. The film was shot in B + W and that cinematography was just perfect in reflecting the hardships on the ranch and the seedy town life.
