If you loved A Place in the Sun, try Giant

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by George Stevens, and they both carry the bittersweet mood tag, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to A Place in the Sun, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Giant is

A big movie about big things, mostly. Leslie arrives in Texas and marries wealthy rancher Bick, much to the chagrin of cowboy Jett. Oil is found, fortunes change, and attitudes clash over a period of decades. It’s certainly a film of significant length.
