If you loved The Long, Hot Summer, try Hombre
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 Martin Ritt. If that's the register that drew you to The Long, Hot Summer, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Hombre is
Shane without sentimentality. A white man raised by Apaches must protect bigoted travelers when their stagecoach is robbed. Paul Newman embodies the stoic Western hero, offering grit instead of grandiose gestures.
