IIRC, Newman has lung cancer and weighs something like 95 pounds.
Another favorite (liberal) actor, James Garner, isn’t doing well either after having a serious stroke.
I hope that Mr. Newman does not go before the Pearly Gates and character act as Reg Dunlop.
As much as I love Slapshot I tired to find a good quote to make light of a bad situation and well.... none were fit for FR :).
Paul, you will always be two roles to me. Reg Dunlop, player coach of the Charlestown Chiefs and John Rooney from Road to Perdition. Oh and least I forget, your portrayal of General Leslie Groves in “Fat Man and Little Boy” was also spectacular.
You’ve done as much off the screen as you did on and stayed married for 50+ years, politics aside a life well led.
I was a big Rockford Files fan myself.
As to Newman, all reports are that he was as stand up and good a man as anyone in the public eye. He seems to have lived a good life and, in return, lived a good life.
No, I haven’t tended to believe in some of his politics, but I’ve no evidence that he didn’t come by them earnestly and I never want to go the route of liberals (or conservatives) who can’t respect those they disagree with: I know I’m not the ultimate judge of anything in this world.
