Based on the play by Tennessee Williams: A party is planned for the 65th birthday of family patriarch ‘Big Daddy’, but not everyone is in a festive mood. Big Daddy’s son Brick, a one-time star athlete, has a drinking problem and has become cold towards his wife Maggie, though she still desperately loves him. Brick’s older brother Gooper and his wife hope to gain control over Big Daddy’s estate. Big Daddy himself is just coming home from a clinic where he has been tested for cancer. When his doctor tells the family the results of the tests, the family’s accumulated lies, frustrations, and secrets quickly begin to come out.
