    Elizabeth Taylor has never been sexier than as Tennessee Williams's hot-blooded Maggie "The Cat" Pollitt, prowling around her boudoir in a slinky white slip. That's how you know her alcoholic, ex-football-player husband, Brick (Paul Newman), must have more than just his leg in a cast. It's the 65th birthday of wealthy (but dying) southern patriarch Big Daddy (Burl Ives), and his sons Gooper (Jack Carter) and Brick have come to suck up to him for $10 million in inheritance money. Gooper is a family man and father to a brood of "no-neck monsters"; youngest boy Brick is papa's favorite (as if you couldn't tell from the fellow's names), but hasn't sired progeny. Maggie is definitely in heat, but Brick refuses to sleep with her because he suspects her her of being unfaithful with his best friend, who recent committed suicide. Although toned down for the movies, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is vintage Tennessee Williams. The film was directed by Richard Brooks (In Cold Blood, Blackboard Jungle, Elmer Gantry). --Jim Emerson

    5 out of 5 stars Makes you sizzle!   November 25, 2008
    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!

    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".


    5 out of 5 stars Great googly moogly   November 22, 2008
    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 (<;

    This is a classic, worth keeping and watching again and again. I saw it first as a college student in the 1960s. In those days I was impressed by Liz Taylor, the cat, beautiful, and vicious. She made the college boys tremble with an awesome respect.
    Nevertheless, it was Paul Newman's performance that stuck with me over the years, the mushy clay that became a brick. The openning scene in which the nostalgic fool broke his leg on the high hurdles made a lasting impression. Somehow, that was me. The fast talk and the angry, penetrating looks projected the image I wanted to imitate but never could. The hansome cripple, without a shirt, swinging on the bannisters, while shouting the blistering truth to the dumb founded family below, isn't that way we would all like to think of ourselves? Then, descending to the basement with his father, he becomes the true son. He loves the old man, while brushing aside the junk, collected over a life time.
    At my present age I can finally admire the Oscar winning performance of Burl Ives. The rich old man had more heart than anyone recognized.
    I guess I'll probably watch this movies another handfull of times before I die. It's a good movie when each time you watch it you see something new.

    Great performances by ET & PM. Hollywood cannot redo this movie because there are no current actors that can touch the performance given by this cast. Great movie!
