Hud (1963)

Hud Bannon is a ruthless young man who tarnishes everything and everyone he touches Hud represents the perfect embodiment of alienated youth out for kicks with no regard for the consequences There is bitter conflict between the callous Hud and his stern and highly principled father Homer Huds nephew Lon admires Huds cheating ways though he soon becomes too aware of Huds reckless amorality to bear him anymore In the world of the takers and the taken Hud is a winner Hes a cheat but he explains I always say the law was meant to be interpreted in a lenient manner
