Sweet Bird of Youth is a 1962 American drama film starring Paul Newman and Geraldine Page, with Shirley Knight, Madeleine Sherwood, Ed Begley, Rip Torn and Mildred Dunnock in support. Based on the 1959 play of the same name by Tennessee Williams, the film was adapted and directed by Richard Brooks. The film won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor (Ed Begley), and was nominated for Best Actress (Geraldine Page) and Best Supporting Actress (Shirley Knight). The film version was sanitized, although Chance Wayne was still gigolo for hire. The ending was heavily altered from the explicit sexual mutilation scene depicted in the conclusion of the original stage version. (Wikipedia)
