What is your favorite Paul Newman film?
"The Hustler"
"Hud"
"Cool Hand Luke"
"Cat on a Hot Tin Roof"
"Winning"
"The Sting"
"Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid"
"The Verdict"
"Slap Shot"
"The Color of Money"
"Towering Inferno"
"Mr. & Mrs. Bridge"
"The Hudsucker Proxy"
"Nobody's Fool"
"Road to Perdition"
"Rally Round the Flag, Boys"
"Empire Falls"
"Cars"
"Harper"
"Exodus"
"The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean"
"Absence of Malice"
"Hombre"
"The Long, Hot Summer"
"Young Philadelphians"
"The Secret War of Harry Frigg"
"Sweet Bird of Youth"
"From The Terrace"
"Paris Blues"
"Harry and Son"

These are but a few. I think the first movie I saw Paul Newman in was "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid". AND "The Sting" AND "Slap Shot". I was the kid that watched movies on Saturdays. So I have seen a lot of his work. I just resaw "Empire Falls" the other day on HBO. Paul was great in that. Plus Josh Lucas played him as a young man in a scene.
