Giant (DVD)(1956)

Director George Stevens sweeping saga of family conflict and social consciousness based on Edna Ferbers best seller is presented here. Nominated for 10 Academy Awards, with a win for Stevens, and starring Rock Hudson as rancher Bick Benedict, Elizabeth Taylor as his wife Leslie and James Dean (in his final film role) as nouveau oil baron Jett Rink, this tale of three generations of Texans remains both grand and intimate.
