Paul Newman, a star whose talent was giving us part of himself Oct 3, 2008
I don't think Newman was ever as beautiful as he is in "Hud."

The character would be a heartbreaker if he were interested in breaking hearts instead of making time with the bodies that come with them. (International Herald Tribune -- Arts)
