Review of Giant (1956) by James S — 17 Feb 2007
Giant is a very suitable title for this film, being enormous in almost every sense. It is very long, but does feature some remarkable scenery, a detailed story, major stars and (at the beginning at least) some decent acting.
Neither one of Dean's nor Taylor's greatest roles, it is still worth seeing for its portrayal of early to mid-twentieth century life in the Southern United States of America. It's just a pity nobody was a little more trigger-happy in the editing suite.
