| Beskrivelse: [ Dansk Engelsk ] The Giant var James Deans tredje og sidste film. George Stevens, der er filmens producer og instruktør, hyrede Elizabeth Taylor som filmens cast head og lyttede til hende, da hun foreslog James Dean i rollen som Jett Rink. Jett Rink er den unge mand, der arver en bid jord fra den kæmpestore Reata Ranch. Jorden viser sig at være en pøl. Ikke mudder - men oliepøl. Igennem en saga på 40 år følger man oliens velsignelser for familien Benedict. Beskrivelse: [ Dansk Engelsk ] Giant was nominated for ten Academy Awards with Director George Stevens winning his second Oscar for this ambitious, grandly realised epic of the changing socio-economic (and physical) landscape of modern Texas, based on Edna Ferber's best-selling novel. Triple Academy Award winner Elizabeth Taylor (Butterfield 8, Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf) stars alongside 4 time Golden Globe winner Rock Hudson (Oscar nominated for his role in Giant) and Golden Globe winner James Dean (Rebel Without a Cause, East of Eden).
Living up to its title, everything in this picture is big, from the running time to the sprawling ranch location and the high-powered stars. Rock Hudson stars as the confident, stubborn young ranch baron Jordan Bick Benedict, who woos and wins the hand of Southern belle Leslie Elizabeth Taylor, a seemingly demure young beauty who proves to be Bick's match after she settles into the family homestead. The film sees James Dean's final performance before his tragic death, as poor former ranch hand Jett Rink, who strikes oil and transforms himself into a flamboyant millionaire playboy earning a second posthumous Academy Award nomination.
The talented supporting cast includes Mercedes McCambridge as Bick's frustrated sister, put out by the new woman of the house and with Carroll Baker and Dennis Hopper as the Benedicts' rebellious children. |
