I see that Film legend (and he's a proper legend not one of these misapprpriated variety) Paul Newman has died today.

Bugger, what a shame, a truly great actor, I guess Road to Perdition must have been his last role.

Wonder if he went out with " that old Luke smile " on his face.

In cyderspace with The Hitchers!
Cool Hand Luke is one of the best all time films.


My man can eat (can't remember how many now but a lot!) eggs.


Still shaking Boss!

Another good film he was in was The Towering Inferno along with Steve mcqueen.
There was a alot of rivalry in that film so on the film poster they had the same size picture of themselves on it.
A truly great actor RIP Paul Newman
