 REVOLUTION - Al Pacino's Loft
In the yellow brazier light of a late night shoot, British director Hugh Hudson, cloaked against the biting cold, watches with satisfaction as Al Pacino and Nastassja Kinski, playing two lovers on opposite sides of the American Revolution, enact a moving scene.
Reasons Hudson, "The problem with them is that they think small." Hudson's thinking big included casting Al Pacino—one of the highest-paid actors in the world—as Tom Dobbs, a colonist from New York who is co-opted into the rag-tag revolutionary army soon after meeting the beautiful rebellious daughter of a pro-British New York merchant—played by Kinski.
Hudson recalls one telling scene in which Pacino and some unknown British actors playing soldiers are being recruited into the makeshift army.

 Buy.com - My Life So Far : DVD : Colin Firth : Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio : Robert Norman : Hugh Hudson : Buena Vista
Director Hugh Hudson's charming coming-of-age tale, set in the early 1900s, stars Robert Norman as Frasier Pettigrew, a young rebel growing up at his idyllic family estate in the countryside of Scotland, surrounded by his eccentric family.
Joyce is a genius; Forman is not -- yet Hugh Hudson's adaptation of Forman's book enlightens and entertains as long as it adheres to the casual, inchoate, eccentric spirit suggested by its title.
Ostensibly told from Fraser's point of view, this morality tale of desire, propriety, covetousness, and hypocrisy is most telling when Hudson keeps it at a distance (a final confrontation is jarring and distasteful), allowing Norman's carrot-topped curiosity and insouciance to take charge...

Director Hugh Hudson's absorbing drama, based on a true story, deals with the personal struggles faced by two very different long-distance runners competing for Britain in the 1924 Paris Olympic Games.

 The Kids Aren't All Right
Ten years later, director Hugh Hudson gave film-goers their first glimpse of a new adolescent crisis: suburban teen gangs.
However, Hugh's vision of contemporary youth culture is far less apocalyptic than his predecessor's.
Rather than culminating in violence, Hudson's picture ends on a positive note as the film's protagonist (Horovitz) amends his once self-destructive lifestyle thanks to the guidance of his dedicated psychiatrist.
