Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is a 1984 American tv drama film directed by Jack Hofsiss, and starring Jessica Lange, Tommy Lee Jones, Rip Torn, Kim Stanley, David Dukes, and Penny Fuller. The film was written by Tennessee Williams, produced by American Playhouse,[1] and originally premiered on Showtime on August 19, 1984.

Plot

This adaptation revived the sexual innuendos that the 1958 film muted. The script is the substantially revised and restored version that Williams made for the 1974 Broadway revival, including the ending, which suggests that the protagonists' future together is anything but certain.

Cast

Awards and nominations

Both Stanley and Fuller were nominated for the Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Miniseries, and Stanley went on to win. It was a re-union of sorts for Stanley and Lange, who received Oscar nominations for playing mother and daughter in 1982's Frances. The film was also nominated for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lighting Design / Lighting Direction for a Variety Special.

The film was also nominated for five CableACE Awards, specifically, Actor in a Theatrical or Dramatic Special (Rip Torn), Art Direction on Video Tape (John Retsek, David Jenkins, Showtime Networks), Theatrical Special (Lou LaMonte, Phylis Geller, Showtime Networks), Writing a Theatrical or Dramatic Special (Tennessee Williams, Showtime Networks), and Lighting Direction on Video Tape (Danny Franks, Ken Dettling, Showtime Networks).[2]
