Part of Paul Newman
Friday, July 15, 2011, 7:00 p.m.

Dir. Martin Ritt. 1963, 112 mins.

With Patricia Neal, Melvyn Douglas. Working with Martin Ritt, one of his favorite directors (Paris Blues; The Long, Hot Summer), Newman plays a hell-raising cowboy with a pink Cadillac who doesn’t get along with his moralistic rancher father (Melvyn Douglas). Patricia Neal won an Oscar as the housekeeper whose beauty tempts Hud even as she refuses his ungentlemanly advances.

Tickets: If visiting the Museum after 4:00 p.m., tickets to Friday evening screenings are $10 ($7.50 for senior citizens and students). Otherwise screening is free with Museum admission.
