Paul Newman

Yeah, he died last week. It prompted me to watch Cool Hand Luke again. Great movie.

I thought about it and Paul played pretty much every part in every movie he ever did the same way. He was just himself.

From The Hustler to The Color Of Money, he played, cool, mad, happy and sad, the exact same way. And we loved him for that, because he was just being Paul Newman.

He didn't take on a character, the character had to become him. No one ever bitched about it like they do with some actors for one simple reason. We all loved Paul.

God's speed.
