Paul Newman, RIP


Sad news that Paul Newman has died of cancer at age 83. So many memorable films: Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Exodus, The Hustler, Cool Hand Luke, Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid, The Sting, and more. He won an Academy Award for Best Actor for his role in Color of Money, and was nominated for many more Oscars. His philanthropy was legendary, raising over $250 million for charity, through profits from his Newman's Own food brand. A favorite of ours, Newman was a great actor and man.
