I just saw "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" for the first time, and WOW.... I need to see more Tennessee Williams stuff. I know I've seen "Suddenly Last Summer" before and totally loved it too. Wow. Paul Newman and Elizabeth Taylor are just stunning (both looks and acting-wise) in "Cat", and it was great to see Judith Anderson out of "lesbian housekeeper" mode.
I know they cut a lot of the overt gay stuff out of the movie, but if you were looking for it, it was obvious where that played a role.
Any other Tennessee Williams stuff I should check out?
