	The films of Martin Ritt: fanfare for the common man.
		Ritt's history in theatre as both director and actor, his early television work and subsequent targeting by HUAC, the crossover to film and his concentration on social issues, industrialisation and landscape all promise a depth and scope of research into Ritt's work that has been long overdue.
		This means that his study of Ritt's work never fully takes into account the social forces, the impact of contemporary concerns and events upon his cinema; it's a bit like they exist in a vacuum without the inclusion of this framework.
		And since one of his main aims is to look at Ritt's work as social commentary and as a spotlight on such concerns, the ineffectiveness of these contexts lessens the force and breadth of his investigations.

	Hud Movie Review at Hollywood Video
		Hud is undeniably the best of the six films Newman made with Martin Ritt, the others being The Long Hot Summer (1958), Paris Blues (1961), Hemingway's Adventures of a Young Man (1962), The Outrage (1964), and Hombre (1967).
		A professional casualty of the Hollywood fllist, Ritt was considered unemployable for years; he later made a movie about the fllist, The Front (1976), starring Woody Allen.
		In 1957, Ritt stepped behind the camera for the first time on Edge of the City, a hard-hitting drama starring Sidney Poitier about dock workers fighting corrupt labor unions.

		Newman has fun with his daring, over-the-top portrayal, and Ritt's socially conscious streak is in evidence here as he investigates whether the truth is left up to whoever defines it.
		Filmed in stark fl and white, which is perfect for this story, the film opens at a gloomy railway station, in the pouring rain, while three men wait for the train.
		Ritt does an excellent job of taking the viewer through the four different scenarios.

	HOMBRE - DVD (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Arguably the biggest and best star of the sixties, Paul Newman's Hombre is his fourth and final "H" film of that decade--a quartet that includes The Hustler, Harper, and another of his six collaborations with Martin Ritt, the fantastic Hud.
		Newman was the quintessential anti-hero for a dissenting cinematic age, and he brought that brooding outcast sensibility to what was perhaps the quintessential outsider role: a half-breed in a western in Ritt's 1967 film Hombre.
		This is not to say that Russell is a "good guy." Rather, "hombre" is deeply ambivalent and possibly vengeful, wearing the racial injustice of his mother's people on his sleeve.
