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 and Elizabeth Taylor both received Oscar® nominations for their roles as troubled ex-sports hero Brick, and Maggie the Cat. Nominated for six Academy Awards® 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.
