Garrett B @gmoney637 Mar 30 Giant is a long but still engaging drama with unforgettable performances, especially from the late James Dean. See more Mickey B. @Mickerdoo Jan 18 Even with a shining example of a wife, it still took Bick a lifetime to straighten up. Jett started sour and only got more bitter with wealth. Uncle was about the only worthwhile male role model. Interesting to see the family grow old and push their parents into new thinking. See more Rich N @RT42616182 Oct 6 An enjoyable movie. The movie trailer encouraged me to give it a try with it's narrative. It began, "This is Texas. Mighty colossus of the southwest. A land of infinite variety and violent contrasts. A land where todays ranch hand can become tomorrows multimillionaire. But more than a state, here is a state of mind. Manners. Morals. Emotions. Of people who are often as exhilarating, exasperating and exciting as the land they belong to. Out of this fabulous and tempestuous panorama comes the story of magnificent scope and great personal charm. A cavalcade that spans a quarter century of stormy passions, deep human understandings and love. Always, love. Powerful. Unquestioning. Constant."

While Dean’s character is an aggravating nuisance in the family scheme, his talent on camera makes the audience feel a touch of compassion for the outcast oilman. The film ranks among the best.

See more Luke S @RT54699090 Aug 8 Excellent - Taylor and her character are especially excellent. Hudson delivers a great performance. Dean is interesting and loathsome. The storylines are very interesting - money/poverty, white/Hispanic, women/men - there is a lot it digs into. And a bit depressing that we have not come further by 2025 since 1955. The brown-face on actors playing Mexican was shocking to see - though this also informs on the times. A movie that seemingly is pro-equality still used light skinned actors with brown makeup.
