Happy birthday to my lifelong favourite actor, Paul Newman! He would have been eighty-nine today.

Paul Newman in 1954.

What is your number one Paul Newman flick?
Legend. Can’t beat Cool Hand Luke and The Sting for me.

Cool Hand Luke was my fave movie as a child, and I guess it still is. I’ve seen it way too many times.

They don’t make beautiful men like him anymore do they? Talented, compassionate, intelligent and so easy on the eyes 🙂

It was such a sad day when he died…

Mine is definitely “Cool Hand Luke”, but, from there, I have probably five or six tied for second place.
I cried when he died. I grew up in an SCCA racing family (my step-dad was a driver), so I loved Paul Newman for multiple things. He was one of a kind!
