Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (Deluxe Edition) 

Description

"I'm not living with you," Maggie snaps at Brick. "We occupy the same cage, that's all." The raw emotions and crackling dialogue of Tennessee Williams' 1955 Pulitzer Prize play rumble like a thunderstorm in this film version whose fiery performances and grown-up themes made it one of 1958's top box-office hits. Paul Newman earned his first OscarO nomination* as troubled ex-sports hero Brick. In a performance that marked a transition to richer adult roles, Elizabeth Taylor snagged her second. Her Maggie the Cat is a vivid portrait of passionate loyalty. Nominated for six Academy AwardsO including Best Picture* and also starring Burl Ives (repeating his Broadway triumph as mendacity-loathing Big Daddy), Judith Anderson and Jack Carson, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof sizzles.

DVD Features:
Audio Commentary:Commentary by Biographer Donald Spoto, Author of The Kindness of Strangers: The Life of Tennessee Williams
Featurette:? New Featurette Cat on a Hot Tin Roof: Playing Cat and Mouse


Customer reviews for 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (Deluxe Edition)'

«Makes you sizzle!»

The sexual frustration undertones in this movie will keep you riveted!
The chemistry between Taylor and Newman are amazing.
Set in a time in the south where everything was big.
I reccomend this film to anyone who loves going back in time
when movies had grit and a bite to them!

«Cat On A Hot Tin Roof»

Paul and Elizabeth at their best, Burl Ives too. The winey sister-in-law needs to be taken out and shot! Excellent movie, I've watched it, this copy and others at least a dozen times. They don't make movies like this any more. Thank God, "they" did when they made this and others of this type. Now if I could remember the movie with Paul and Geraldine Page of similar vintage, I'd buy it too. She is a fading movie star; Paul is her "love toy".

«Great googly moogly»

Movies used to relay on scripts and acting and production rather than computer simulations to be good. This is just such a movie. It takes one back to a time when the players were the stars. And besides that...it's worth the price just to see Liz change her stockings. That's where the "great googly moogly" title comes from (<;
