Film Dope



Paul Newman

Monday, 26th January 1925 - Friday, 26th September 2008
Shaker Heights, OH
USA


Personable US actor with piercing blue eyes and charisma to spare. Coasted through the latter part of the 70s but came back with a vengeance in a role he'd essayed before in The Color of Money.

Maybe better known as the face peering from the supermarket shelves on a variety of charity benefitting products that carry his name these days (the Sockarooni pasta sauce is VERY good, by the way), he still managed to be the backbone of the magnificent Road to Perdition and charmed as an animated car.

RIP.
