Who could forget that "sh.t eat,n grin",on Cool hand lukes face as he leaned on up against that punishment shed for the umpteenth time and claimed for all to hear that what they had here was a failure to communicate as the "Boss",threw him back in the hole. He was the definition of cool as it was lived in the 50.s and 60,s. and the man,s word was his badge of honour. Pity other men of consequence didn,t have a tenth of his integrity. Crap,it also reminds me of how the years are catching up to me too.
Just found out the gentleman has passed away from this thread, loved his acting in "The Hustler" and its sequel "Color of Money" amongst others, as Dave Lukins said, one of the last of truly great entertainers, R . I. P.

I'll deeply miss him.

Deb's, such a sexist comment its whats inside that counts................. Great actor and not a bad race car driver either
But he had the bluest eyes and his Newman's Own Foundation definitely conveyed whats inside that counts! He has done so much for the children with life threatening diseases.

That's right, the z car community has been talking, he won the championship in a 1000hp SOHC VG30ETT-twin turbo version with race components of the single turbo VG30ET
Truly a remarkable man, as an actor and other such activities. I shall go forth and buy some Newman's own products once I get back to California in December.
