There's got to be some post limit or date of expiration for old posts on this blog, because when I did a search for mentions of Paul Newman, I only came up with this one. I just can't believe that I haven't talked about more than one movie with Paul Newman in it. Running through his IMDB bio, I know I've seen Road to Perdition, Hudsucker Proxy, Slapshot, The Sting, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Cool Hand Luke, The Hustler, and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Those last six are probably as impressive a list as anybody else can throw out there, and that's just the ones I've seen.
One is the greatest scam/heist movie ever. One is one of the funniest sports movies (I would say THE funniest, but I'd probably get run over by a Caddyshack fan tomorrow). One is one of the greatest westerns. One is one of the greatest prison movies. One is the greatest pool movie ever, and is also a great personal drama/tragedy film. And the last is one of my favorites because it has so much raw emotion packed into every scene.
