I can still remember going to the Northtown 6 movie theater … plopping down my 2 bucks and seeing Paul Newman in Cool Hand Luke or Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid. I liked Newman. I liked him as a person. I respected him. He was unlike any Hollywood contemporary you can call up. Why? Because acting was just a vocation for him … not “who” he was. He stayed private and from all accounts … he was just a regualr guy. His kids love him. He stayed married a really long time. He did good things with his money.
Most of his close friends are saying … the world will miss this guy.
