Don’t need to say a lot about him. He died at 83. He made movies, raced cars and made his own popcorn and salad dressing. I have done all of those three things, too – but I wasn’t good at any of them. That’s just one of the many differences between him and me.
I am giving you the trailer for Slapshot, which is one of the funniest movies of all time. And I am pretty sure it is the only movie Paul Newman was ever in where he said: “Hey Hanrahan! Suzanne sucks pussy!” Except maybe The Sting. Anyway – he had a good run. Go watch Slapshot. You’ll laugh. Or go look at pics of him. He was better looking at 80 than I was the day I got that Extreme Makeover.
RIP Paul <3
Paul Newman will surely be missed. He was a great person, as well as a great actor. I shall dream of those shining blue eyes and wish him a happy next life.
An underrated comedy actor, too. Great in Mel Brooks’ ‘Silent Movie’.
