Today would have been Paul Newman's 94th birthday. Here's my 5 favorite Paul Newman movies - not saying they are 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.
Once again, hard to argue with this, except that I prefer Hud and The Hustler to Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. I still haven't seen The Verdict, and I only saw Absence of Malice once, many years ago. That needs to be rectified. Keep making these lists, if only to remind me!
