| Hud | comment |
Hud is a 1963 American drama film, directed by Martin Ritt and starring Paul Newman, Patricia Neal, and Melvyn Douglas. It was adapted from Larry McMurtry's 1961 novel Horseman, Pass By.It's a story about a family of cattle ranchers in the Texas Panhandle. Homer Bannon (Douglas) is the aging, widowed patriarch, running things with his headstrong, rebellious son Hud (Newman) and his guileless teenage grandson Lonnie (Brandon deWilde, who yelled "Come back, Shane!" in Shane), who's the son of Hud's deceased brother. Also present is the Bannons' world-weary live-in housekeeper, Alma (Neal).Hud is arrogant, self-centered, and dishonest, taking advantage of his family and friends. When one of the cows on the ranch dies, Homer sends for a state veterinarian, against the advice of his son, who wants to sell off the cattle before anyone realizes they're sick. The veterinarian diagnoses foot-and-mouth disease, lethal to cattle, which threatens to drive the ranch into bankruptcy and pits Hud against his father.Hud earned seven Academy Award nominations, winning for Best Actress (Neal), Supporting Actor (Douglas), and Black-and-White Cinematography (James Wong Howe). | |

New Old West | |
| Hud / int_3dc6aa5b | comment |
New Old West: They're cowboys, out in the Texas plains, battling for control of a ranch, but the film is set in the modern day. The Old West's traditional values being overwhelmed by the amorality and ruthlessness of the modern West are represented by conflict between Homer and Hud. | |

| Hud / int_50ca4422 | comment |
Unresolved Sexual Tension: The tension between Alma and Hud is obvious, until it's resolved in a very negative way. Later, as Alma is making her melancholy departure, she admits to Hud that if he hadn't tried to rape her, she probably would have had willing sex with him eventually. | |

Jerkass Has a Point | |
| Hud / int_6b05b601 | comment |
Jerkass Has a Point: Homer's land can be drilled for oil, which would save them from their financial crisis, as Hud points out. However, Homer detects that it's just a ploy for Hud to recover his eroding inheritance, and rejects the plot on the basis of having no pride in oil — even though he ends up having to let go of all of his staff because there's no money or work left. | |

Villain Protagonist: Hud is the poster boy for stories focused around the villain. Supposedly Paul Newman was shocked when audiences claimed they loved him as the hero of this movie. Newman thought the man was despicable and a good example of how not to live ones life. | |

Betty and Veronica | |
| Hud / int_94e4c8ab | comment |
Betty and Veronica: A platonic variant. Lonnie is tugged between the elderly, old-fashioned Homer with hard-working, honest, and wholesome — but increasingly outdated and unsustainable — values, and the younger, more exciting Hud, who is amoral, cynical, and destructive, but more realistic and alluring. In the end, he regrets ever giving Hud a chance and falls firmly on Homer's side of the aisle. | |

Death by Despair: When Homer dies, Hud insists that there was nothing he could do, while Lonnie argues that Homer could have pulled through if he wanted, but his malaise at having Hud as a son made him prefer to just give up the ghost. | |

Love Triangle: A mild one. Lonnie has a crush on Alma, and though she finds him kind and considerate, he's too young for her. Hud is also attracted to Alma, but is incapable of showing it except in ruthless ways. She's attracted to him as well, but refuses to act on it due to his attitude. | |
