Top 5 - Paul Newman Movies

Today would have been Paul Newman's 94th birthday. Here's my 5 favorite Paul Newman movies - not saying there's his best just MY favorites.

1. Slap Shot - perhaps the best sports movie ever.
2. The Sting - a classic but these days seems a little long
3. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
4. Cool Hand Luke
5. (tie) The Verdict (tie) Absence of Malice

Just missing the list was The Hustler.

  1. That's a good list. All enjoyable films, unlike The Hustler and Hud, which are better movies.

  2. Have to admit that I've never seen Hud

    1. Fantastic film, brilliant acting (Newman should have won the Oscar), reprehensible character, somewhat unpleasant to watch.
