awesome movie. I was actually thinking about posting this not too long ago.
I have to check out some more of his flicks. I just found out that my dad was his fan too!!!
His wife is pretty damn cool too.
Patrick, I knew I liked you.
Thanks for sharing that Juk. I was just talking about him yesterday....we dont have actors like that anymore. My bro's gf laughed when I said that to her....but then again, she took my bro (both pretty young) to a Paul Anka concert filled with seniors....He was on letterman the same night as Pjam. I might ask Mike if he can help me meet him.
It takes me to log in for ((Paul Newman)).
Hope that everyone is having a great night /weekend.
In his best southern drawl Strother Martin says it here vocally at the beginning of GnR's song "Civil War" some classic lines.
This IS one of my top 5 movies of ALL time just pure power all the way through. You start to feel for the character Luke as Newman fools everyone time after time.
Many religious overtones in this movie like the scene after the eggs scene where Luke is shone from overhead as it appears he's lying down like Jesus on the cross.
An Academy Winner in George Kennedy for this movie with his very powerful performance also. Great movie, thanks for the reminder they don't quite make them like this one anymore.

Man I haven't heard that term in ages, I think one of my 90 year old patients used that term some time ago.

I did see you mention you liked him in a post a while back and I was thinking, "Girl's got taste!"
He really is devine. Inside and out.
Can't decide between that and Cool Hand Luke as my favorite of his perfomances.

Woodward and Newman is quite an incredible accomplishment in itself. They compliment themselves perfectly< I guess. How does a Hollywood marriage last?
I read somewhere awhile back where Newman said his best movie was 'Slapshot.'

Good flick, not great. Newman may have been at his best with Redford in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and then The Sting.

Not to mention the earlier films like HUD and The Cincinatti Kid.
Both excellent movies.

A classic old movie Luke sure is. That's the problem with today's youth. They have no idea how many classic really old movies were made. This is one of them for sure.
Every Hockey fan should watch Slapshot. You'll end up laughing so hard during this movie. Another great Newman movie.
Glad you like Newman also Ruby. Your so funny and cute with your comments.
Awesome your loving this movie.
One of my favorites ever since I was a little girl.

hehehe enjoy my dear.
The egg scene is sure something to watch.
Oh I will.
Yup. Reckon that'll be my line up:
Cool Hand Luke
Cat on A Hot Tin Roof
Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid
I'll save the popcorn till after the egg scene.

I'm so glad their are so many Paul Newman fans on here.
Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (RIP Tennessee Williams)
Marlon Brando.
Not Paul Newman.

dude, Jeanie's right. Cat on a Hot Tin Roof IS Paul Newman and Elizabeth Taylor and Burl Ives plays Big Daddy

Elizabeth Taylor, in the day, may be the second hottest woman to have ever walked the face of the planet earth.

What I'd really love to see, and I've never come across it in the dvd bins is Katharine Hepburn in Tennessee's Suddenly Last Summer.
The Terrible Encantadas!
On a side note, Moby, is the Grandson of Herman Melville, the guy that wrote Moby Dick.
Something I discovered during second year at uni when I was dramaturg.

i just need to say
And what the hell are all of you people on the West coast doing up????
At least I have an excuse: I went to bed really early...:o
The Sting is my favorite Newman movie.
I live in CT where they live...he and Joanne.
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
