Director: Richard Brooks
Stars: Elizabeth Taylor, Paul Newman, Burl Ives
Wow. Not exactly what I was expecting. But not bad at all.
So Brick (Newman) is a alcoholic who is rejecting his wife Maggie (Taylor) because of something that happened in their past. While visiting his childhood home, they get caught in the midst of much drama on learning that Big Daddy (Ives) is dying. This film is a struggle of relationships and realizations of mistakes and all that jazz. It's emotional and dramatic, but I don't mean it negatively. And I don't want to give away any more.
And after I watched it, Paul Newman made a guest appearance in my dreams!
Needless to say, I highly recommend it.
