Oh my! The passing of a great actor.

His movie Cool Hand Luke was my favorite movie of his career.

If some of you younger posters have not seen it, you need to rent it.

He did have a few good movies in his younger days--before turning into a sick leftist political activist.

I ask everybody to not even bother responding to this. It's not worth the time.

Cool Hand Luke is a great movie. Weirdly, I only saw it two days ago and now Paul Newman dies. RIP.

Actually, nobody did except for you, BH.

They would. It's a preemptive strike. I didn't want another Tim Russert thread.
