The desolate West Texas landscape is the setting for HUD (1963) Starring Paul Newman. In the movie, director Martin Ritt and cinematographer James Wong Howe use the west Texas film location as a symbol for Hud's character.

Based on the novel Horseman, Pass By by Larry McMurtry, published in 1961, the film centers on Hud and his ongoing clashes with his principled well respected father Homer Bannon a North West Texas cattleman played by Melvyn Douglas.

As an early revisionist western, HUD bridged the gap between the more naive less cynical films of the 1950s and early 1960s and the more realistic and challenging movies that came later in the decade.
The movie is a fantastic character study of Paul Newman's western bad guy Hud Bannon, and the film also co-stars, Patricia Neal, Melvyn Douglas and Brandon De Wilde and also one of the best movies set in Texas.
