whitesoxfan101 Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 This sucks. First Bernie Mac, then Issac Hayes, now this. At least Morgan Freeman survived, and Newman is still alive at least for now, but they always come in threes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Paul Newman is just plain awesome. He's one of those guys that you can easily say is one of the greatest actors ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 QUOTE (knightni @ Aug 10, 2008 -> 06:14 PM) Slap Shot, The Hustler, Cool Hand Luke... His Oscar nominations stretch all the way from 1959 with Cat on a Hot Tin Roof to 2003 Road to Perdition. The Color of Money / Hustler was a unique twist as well.

Yoda Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 This is very sad news. At least he'll be able to spend his last days in the location of his request and with the people that are closest to him. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and Cool Hand Luke were the first two films that made me a Newman fan. I really liked his work and admire what he did. He is definitely up there as one of my favorite actors. Also can't forget his collaboration with another of my favorite actors, Steve McQueen, in The Towering Inferno.
