What is your favorite Paul Newman film role?

I really liked him in The Sting, and The Three Faces of Eve. I've been meaning to watch The three Faces of Eve again for a long time. Now all I need to do is track down a copy. I saw it years ago and I really enjoyed the movie. Now I want to see it again.

Like many I haven't seen Paul Newman movies in the theatre. There was in fact only one, and that was "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid". It was an "event" movie; I mean, one you just had to see. It made Robert Redford into a superstar and consolidated Newman's status as possibly the biggest film star in the world. I loved it; it was just superb, so funny, so exciting, so stylish. I went with my mum and best friend to the local flea pit. Before the movie started I ate some chocolate, and the proceeded to blow on my glasses to clean them (I was vain; only got the goggles out when I had to); thereby "frosting" the lenses with a fine chocolaty coating. My best buddy couldn't contain himself for laughter.

mine will always be cool hand luke, it was one of the first movies I got to see as a kid in the movie theater.

I learned this news via the net. Frankly, I haven't watched a lot of old movies and this is why I am not familiar with Paul Newman. I searched some of his information and he is quite a handsome man. He is also one of the greatest actors in USA. He is very generous and kind and he has donated quite a big amount to the charity. He has a good marriage and they celebrated their gold wedding anniversary this year. I think I will watch his movie called The Hudsucker Proxy. I love China

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid....then the Color of money....The first is one of my all time favorite movies....of course I had a crush on Robert Redford at the time so it was all the more exciting to see the movie! He was a wonderful actor and an outstanding man!

My favorite Newman role was Ari Ben Canaan in Exodus. The movie was made in, while memories of the Holocaust and of the founding of the State of Israel were still both very new. I fell in love with Newman as Ari, and I never quite got over that affair of the heart. Newman was young and handsome, with a strong commitment to social justice. For me, it was the perfect combination for a screen idol.

I know...I was stunned as I was sitting having my breakfast today with the radio on and heard of his passing. While he was in so many great, classic films, for some reason the one that comes to my mind right away is Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid...maybe as it was a break from his more serious roles.

yes it is a sad day for all of us paul newman fans. he did lead a great life and did alot of great thing for needy kids. my favorite movie with him is cool hand luke. second would have to be butch cassidy and the sundance kid. i hope his family carries on his traditions.
