Paul Newman

Okay, I admit, Paul Newman is one of my favourite actors. Just look at the great films he has made and it is not hard to see why. Hud, Hustler, Cool Hand Luke, The Towering Inferno, all classics and I haven't even mentioned Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid or The Sting yet! The guy was immense! But I'm going to skip over Winning and the Drowning Pool and get to my favourite Paul Newman films. The Verdict, for instance, where he is superb as the alchoholic lawyer in a truly inspirational story. I love it. And Absense Of Malice where Paul Newman stars with Sally Field in a brilliant and cleverly conceived film. Then there is, and I'm going to surprise you here, Message In A Bottle where he plays the father to Kevin Costner's grieving widower. It is a deeply touching, moving film where Paul Newman is simply brilliant and glues the film together even though his character is largely in the background, but it is the small touches he makes in that film that really opened my eyed to what a huge talent Paul Newman was...

Paul Newman was nominated for an Academy award seven times for best actor and won it once for his role in The Color Of Money where he reprised the character Fast Eddie Felson from the classic Hustler...

The Hollywood Movie History

The greats of the silent movie period included Rudolf Valentino, Mary Pickford, Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Laurel & Hardy and a whole host of stars whose talents live on in the many characters they portrayed. Jean Harlow is perhaps the most successful of the stars who began their career in the silent era and whose star continued in ascendancy into the talkies. The western film genre has been the birth place for many great film stars, not least of which is the Great John Wayne. Blockbuster movies dominated the 80's and 90's with Silvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis competing for the title greatest action hero of them all... and then Matt Damon brought Ludlum's character Jason Bourne to life all too vividly and a whole new action hero was born.
And, although great women's roles are still all to rare, Vivien Leigh's Scarlet O'Hara in Gone With The Wind, Marilyn Monroe's Sugar Kane in Some Like It Hot, Grace Kelly as Tracy Lord in High Society, Michelle Pfeifer in the Baker Boys and Julie Roberts in Erin Brockovich are just a few great and memorable perfomances I have experience by women in the movies...
