Stanley Kowalski or Hud?

I don't know if Newman "looked to Brando's portrayal at all," but rewatching the film after a number of years I definitely see some kinship in the characters, and get the feeling that Newman, too, would have made a helluva Stanley Kowalski had he taken a shot at it.

"In my case, self-absorption is completely justified."

Paul Newman a great actor but can't play in Brando league.

They both did such great job at acting in this movie. It impossible to pick.

Hud may have been an arrogant dick, but he still had awareness of his own nature as well as intellect based understanding of the general circumstance. Kowalski on the other hand was a big, sweaty baby. A brutal, inane force of nature.
