Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1958) is a cinematic adaptation of Tennessee Williams' renowned play, set against the backdrop of a family gathering for the 65th birthday celebration of the patriarch, 'Big Daddy'. The atmosphere is tense as not all family members are in a celebratory spirit. Big Daddy's son, Brick, a former athletic star, grapples with alcoholism and has grown distant from his wife, Maggie, who remains deeply in love with him. Meanwhile, Brick's older brother, Gooper, and his wife have their eyes set on inheriting Big Daddy's fortune. Big Daddy returns home from a medical clinic where he underwent cancer tests. As the family awaits the test results, long-buried lies, frustrations, and secrets begin to surface, leading to a dramatic confrontation.
