VERDICT, which was nominated for five Oscars (Best Picture, Newman, director Sidney Lumet, screenwriter David Mamet and co- star James Mason), as well as eight other major awards and nominations.(Alan): Lumet’s superb direction and Mamet’s powerful script support what is probably Newman’s richest, subtlest and best performance: as a drunken, down- and- out ambulance chaser who stands up to the Catholic Church power structure and the defense attorney from hell (Mason) in. THE VERDICT, a gripping courtroom drama about a Boston malpractice suit. Jack Warden, Milo O’Shea, Charlotte Rampling and Lindsay Crouse provide strong support. This one blew me away 2. Sharon): Paul Newman’s performance as Frank Galvin in. THE VERDICT is nothing short of amazing. A recent viewing of his other films reveals how different this character is from others he’s played over the years. Newman’s portrayal digs deep into the man’s soul and emerges as a fully formed, complicated human being. You see nothing of the charming leading man. You see only Frank Galvin’s despair, self- disgust and half- hearted attempts to pull his life together, until the sneering legal community pushes him too far and reawakens his sense of justice. The script is outstanding, but Newman’s performance as Frank Galvin is his great work of art.(Alan): In NOBODY’S. FOOL, Newman, at 7. Bruce Willis’s wife (Melanie Griffith), discovers and tries to build a relationship with his long- abandoned son (Dylan Walsh) and unknown grandson, has a delightful relationship with his elderly landlady (Jessica Tandy, marvelous as always in what was her final role) and interacts amusingly with assorted townspeople well played by Pruitt Taylor Vince, Gene Saks, Josef Sommer and young Philip Seymour Hoffman. Though more episodic than plot- structured, this is chock- full of fresh, off- beat humor, and it is a pure delight for 1. Only a hopeless curmudgeon would not love it. One terrific running gag is the ongoing battle between Newman and Willis to keep stealing the latter’s snow blower. Newman really earned his Oscar nom here, as writer- director Robert Benton did for his exhilarating screenplay. Newman also won three other best actor honors for this one, plus two other noms. One reason I like this film so much is that it successfully breaks all the classic (hidebound) screenwriting rules.(Sharon): The leisurely pace and charming wit of this film mask the serious issues it deals with. My advice is to sit back and savor Robert Benton’s writing and directing, the antics of Newman’s adorable underachiever, and the delightful performances of all the wonderful actors. Without sentimentality or preaching, we witness a man’s redemption. Shaw was a terrific villain, Robert Redford and Paul Newman were delightful as the con men who fool him twice, and there were solid supporting performances from fine character actors Charles Durning, Ray Walston, Eileen Brennan and Harold Gould. Ward), director (George Roy Hill) and score (Marvin Hamlisch, although the Academy criminally did not award one to legendary ragtime composer Scott Joplin, whose music give the movie much of its flavor). The film won another eight major awards (including DGA, PGA and People’s Choice Favorite Motion Picture) and three more nominations. This movie is beautifully crafted and a pleasure from beginning to end. The tension between Shaw and the team of Newman and Redford is electric.(Sharon): THE STING is as delightful now as when it was made. The script contains one surprise after another, the characters are amusing, and Paul Newman and Robert Redford as two roguish con men are at their most charming. As we watch them concoct larger and larger cons, they draw the audience into the schemes and have us rooting for them. I defy anyone to resist falling in love with these characters.(Alan): BUTCH CASSIDY & THE SUNDANCE. KID, winner of four Oscars (for writer William Goldman, cinematographer Conrad Hall, composer Burt Bachrach and song writers Bachrach and Hal David . Quirky, amusing, unexpected and nicely shot by George Roy Hill, this was a massive hit. Newman and co- star Robert Redford are terrific playing together as a pair of outlaws who are followed by an unstoppable posse! This was Newman’s first big blockbuster hit, and it put him on the map—where he stayed for the next 3. Sharon): I did not like this film when I first saw it in 1. I had high regard for the great Western films, and William Goldman’s script was a pseudo- Western with modern dialogue and attitudes. I found it a mockery of the form. However, I couldn’t deny that it was entertaining and produced some unforgettable moments. Upon re- viewing it recently, I found that I enjoyed it despite its anachronisms. This was the first pairing of Newman and Redford, who portrayed Butch and Sundance with such zest and merriment that, in the end, I couldn’t resist.(Alan): In SLAP. SHOT, Newman is quite funny as an untalented minor league hockey coach who decides to bring in bigger crowds by having his team play dirty. Based on the true adventures of three weird Canadian hockey players (who have since become cult heroes up north)—the three Hanson Brothers are played here by two of the guys they are based on, plus one of their original teammates. This is an amusing, surprising plot, with funny details and a quirky cast, led by Strother Martin, Lindsay Crouse and Michael Ontkean (who actually was a hockey player before becoming an actor). This one has become a cult classic. It was once controversial for its salty language, which, Newman once confessed, made his own post- Slap Shot speech dirtier. Newman, at age 5. Nancy Dowd’s script was nominated for the Best Original Comedy WGA award, and the film won a Japanese Best Foreign film award.(Sharon): I confess that I refused to see this movie in 1. As an intelligent young woman, I decided that it was nothing but violence and profanity—obviously a gratuitous attempt to titillate young boys! However, upon finally viewing it as a mature woman, I saw it was much more. Not only was I blown away by Newman and Ontkean’s skating skill, but by Newman’s creation of Reg Dunlop, a hockey coach whose cojones surpass his intelligence. His detailed performance is a marvel. Nancy Dowd’s hilarious script and George Roy Hill’s testosterone- driven direction create a violent, profane movie that keeps you laughing out loud. I’m embarrassed to say it, but I loved it. It was nominated for 1. BAFTA, Golden Globe and two others for Newman (plus an Oscar nom). It remains enjoyable today, although it is a bit dated. Despite a few weak, melodramatic scenes and a slow- paced mid- section, this is a compelling drama about cocky young pool hustler “Fast Eddy Felson,” out to beat “Minnesota Fats” (Jackie Gleason), considered the country’s best stickman. Scott is strong as the villain. Trained by pool champ Willie Mosconi (who did a lot of the trickier shots), Newman went from no pool experience to sufficient skill to do several of the noteworthy pool shots himself on the screen. Here’s fine work by Newman, Scott and Gleason (in probably his best and most understated work ever).(Sharon): Paul Newman’s Fast Eddy Felson is a complicated guy. He has talent, yet all he uses it for is to hustle inexperienced players. He has a girl (Piper Laurie) who takes care of him when he fails, yet when he wins, he ignores her. He tries to make the big time, but he doesn’t know when to quit, or when to stop drinking. Newman makes us care about Eddy, even with all his flaws.(Alan): In his second film, 3. Newman and co- stars Walter Pigeon and Edmond O’Brien were great in. THE RACK, a gripping, poignant military court- martial drama from a terrific Rod Serling script. Tortured by the Chinese during the Korean War, Newman’s Capt. Eddie Hall signed confessions and made propaganda speeches, which have now landed him on trial for collaborating with the enemy. The father- son dynamic between Newman and Pigeon is very moving and well played.(Sharon): What a happy surprise this little gem from the 1. Newman shines as a soldier who tried his best to cope with being a prisoner of war but was targeted by the enemy for torture. Connell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Evan S. Connell. Born.

Bridge, starring Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward. Critics gave the film mixed reviews. Hal Hinson wrote in The Washington Post that . Its subject is emotional repression, and the challenge is to make a film about a soul- deep conservatism that doesn't itself suffer from the excess caution and lack of dynamism that its characters do.
