CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF (1958) 1 hour 48 minute run time
Based on a play by Tennessee Williams, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof centers on Brick Pollitt (Paul Newman) who injures himself while drunkenly revisiting his high school sports-star days, after which he and his tempestuous wife, Maggie (Elizabeth Taylor), visit his family’s Mississippi plantation for the 65th birthday of his hot-tempered father, Big Daddy (Burl Ives). Cantankerous even with declining health, Big Daddy demands to know why Brick and Maggie haven’t yet given him a grandchild, unlike Brick’s brother Gooper (Jack Carson) and his fecund wife, Mae (Madeleine Sherwood).
