Paul Newman
« on: 27 September 2008, 15:09:40 »

Very sad news has just been released; Paul Newman has died from cancer at the age of 83 :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

A great actor, director and wonderful man :-* :-* :-* :-* who not only appeared in many successful films such as Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid, Cool Hand Luke , The Sting and Color of Money but he was a very keen motor racing driver! :y :y :y

He also raised millions for charity! 8-) 8-) 8-)

He will I am sure be missed by many, many people! :'( :'( :'(

Good bye Paul! :( :( :( :(

The Hustler is one of my all-time favourite films!

"when it's just right, i feel i got oil in my arm kid...." 8-) 8-)


coolest film of all time ever



as you say he raised  100's of MILLIONS through his Own Sauce - all of it goes to charity


great guy - one of a handful of genuine hollywood icons/legends



really sorry to hear he's passed - think i'll have a beer and watch the hustler again  :(

Will be sadly missed -- the Greats are all going -- as the saying goes, "They don't make them like that anymore".

Sad news.
I always liked paul Newman as an actor ,he seemed to act with out any apparent effort....always the sign of a great actor.
Loved Cool hand luke made in 1967(I think).
Also liked him in the blockbuster The Towering Inferno....plenty of big names in that film....Steve McQueen...Fred Astaire...William Holden..Robert Wagner....plus the edible Faye Dunaway.
I think to say that women found him attractive is something of an understatement.
Perhaps more important is that I think as well as being a great actor .....he was a well liked decent human being. :y :y :y
