Hud Ratings & Reviews
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Paul Newman established himself as a superstar in this uncompromising antihero role.
Nick's Flick Picks
Nick Davis
These questions are richer than they might have been in Hud because Newman...creates Hud as a sum of conscious choices, not an animal or an icon.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
More or less plays out as a home-on-the-range knock-off of Nicolas Ray's brilliant Rebel Without a Cause.
Apollo Guide
Ryan Cracknell
Ultimately, a heartbreaking film that refuses to take the easy, happy route of life.

Newman at his best

Emanuel Levy
Violating the the Producion Code, Martin Ritt's best film, which features Paul Newman in top form, includes forbidden words such as bastard and SOB, heard for the first time in American movie.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
James Wong Howe won the film's third Oscar for his beautiful widescreen, black-and-white, wide-open-spaces cinematography, but director Martin Ritt (who was nominated) keeps things a bit too serious and self-important.

Hud understands that torches are more often extinguished than passed

Martin Ritt directed, putting a little too much dust in the dust bowl for my taste.

Hud (1963) is the story of the title character - a young Texas rancher named Hud Bannon (Paul Newman), the son of moral patriarch, law-abiding cattleman Homer Bannon (Melvyn Douglas) in modern day Texas. His crude nature was described in the film's...
Cleveland Press
Tony Mastroianni
As Hud, Newman is perfect. He's ornery. He's nasty. He wears a deceptive smile and the occasional decent sentiments that come from his lips sound as hollow as they were meant to be.
TIME Magazine
The four principal actors -- Newman, Neal, Douglas, and de Wilde -- are so good that they might well form the nucleus of a cinematic repertory company.
TV Guide
A blistering adult western which broke ground in its depiction of an unglamorous West and in the decidedly anti-heroic nature of its lead.
