Paul Newman, the legendary actor whose steely blue eyes, good-humored charm and advocacy of worthy causes made him one of the most renowned figures in American arts, has died of cancer at his home in Westport, Connecticut. He was 83.

Always rather liked him.

Yes Paul Newman was a great actor.   However I don’t see Newman as a still.   Newman was man of action, who made anything he did look sexy.  I’d be tempted to post a video of Rules in a Knife Fight, but this may be what I consider the quintessential Newman scene, video:

Yes I too was a wee bit jealous of rather liked Newman.  Didn’t every man wish to be like Paul Newman?
