Cat on a Hot Tin Roof

Out on:Dual Format 17th July 2017

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 Oscar® nomination as troubled
ex-sports-hero Brick. In a performance that marked a transition
to richer adult roles, Elizabeth Taylor snagged her second
nomination. Her Maggie the Cat is a vivid portrait of passionate
loyalty. 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.
