Academy Award-winning actor, race-car driver and philanthropic food king—Paul Newman did nothing if not live large during his 83 years. We look back at some of his greatest theatrical hits and a personal highlight, too.
Newman teamed up with Robert Redford for the quintessential tale of handsome rogues on the run, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.
The actor's "failure to communicate" clearly resonated in his indelible portrayal of a imprisoned misfit in the 1967 chain-gang classic Cool Hand Luke.
In the film version of Tennessee Williams' Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Newman teamed up with Elizabeth Taylor to play a couple with some serious issues.
The star remembered his cues as small-time gambler and pool shark Fast Eddie Felson in The Hustler.
Not only was the Sting reteaming with Redford a hit, the con caper won a slew of Oscars, including Best Picture.
The star's long-lasting marriage to fellow actor Joanne Woodward practically set a record for longevity among Tinseltown twosomes.
