So.....slow..... 90 minutes of movie stretched out to 180 minutes. The acting (except for Hudson) and scenery are worthy of a view, as are the revelations on how Texas did and still does treat non-whites....and non-males. NOTE: Much of the "trivia" in IMDb for this title is incorrect.

Fine, epic which entertains, looks nice and is really ahead of it's time in terms of discussing race and gender. It doesn't really have much of a hook or a plot and feels strangely like a small movie for something which has this title, spans 25 years and is more than 3 hours long. It's a good one but maybe not a great one.

The least interesting of the three movies featuring James Dean, but very watchable still.

While I can't deny GIANT's faults--the occasional heavy-handedness, the uneven pacing--less can I deny its virtues. George Stevens won a well-deserved Oscar for his thoughtful, yet bold direction; sadly, it won no other awards, despite the superb cinematography (making particularly striking use of shadows and obstructions to create an almost mythic atmosphere), the performances (Hudson, Dean, and Taylor are all strong), and the script, which tackles racism and progress alike with earnest power.
