Sometimes A Great Notion (1971)

Paul Newman directed Sometimes a Great Notion (also known as Never Give an Inch), a 1971 American drama film starring Newman, Henry Fonda, Michael Sarrazin, and Lee Remick. Richard Jaeckel is also in the cast, and his performance has been nominated for an Academy Award. John Gay's script is based on Ken Kesey's 1964 novel of the same name, which was the first of his works to be adapted for the film. It was shot in western Oregon during the summer of 1970 and released in December 1971, more than a year later.

Though Newman's directorial career was brief, he was responsible for a number of important films that gained critical praise. Sometimes a Great Notion, in which Newman co-starred with fellow icon Henry Fonda, was one of these films. Newman and Fonda portray father and son loggers in Oregon who work independently. When the other loggers in the region go on strike, the family enrages everyone by refusing to stop working. It's a gripping family story with a lot at stake.
