Sweet Bird of Youth

Young wastrel Chance Wayne (Paul Newman) returned to his Florida backwater hometown with fading screen star Alexandra Del Lago (Geraldine Page) in tow, hoping that ex-lover Heavenly Finley (Shirley Knight) would join him in his last-ditch bid for Hollywood discovery. Unfortunately, Heavenly’s political boss dad (Best Supporting Actor Oscar-winner Ed Begley) ran Chance off in the first place...and will make him sorry he ever came back. Powerful rendering of the Tennessee Williams classic also stars Rip Torn, Madeleine Sherwood; Richard Brooks directs. 120 min.
