THE CINCINNATI KID
An article about the 1965 film, with
Steve McQueen, Edward G. Robinson, Rip Torn,
Ann Margaret, Karl Malden, and Tuesday Weld
Directed by Norman Jewison
Screenplay by Ring Lardner Jr. and Terry Southern

New York State Writers Institute
Film Notes

"Screenwriters [Ring] Lardner Jr., one of the blacklisted Hollywood 10, for whom this film marked a re-emergence in studio work, and [Terry] Southern, whose work on DR. STRANGELOVE (1963) and THE LOVED ONE (1965) marked him as one of the best dialogue writers of the time (the encounter between Shooter and Slade in the shooting gallery is all Southern), had the freedom to develop subplots and minor characters, which is why the cast is so large, and notable."
