I think you forgot "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" a classic. I also thought he was good in "Road to Perdition".

Whoops, nevermind, I've seen Road To Perdition. I've also seen the majority of Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid.

1. Hud
2. Road to Perdition

The only others I've seen are Torn Curtain and The Color of Money, and neither of them are that great. I've seen parts of The Sting, Cool Hand Luke, and Butch Cassidy..., but haven't gotten around to watching them all the way through. Fuck me.

I actually think Newman is underrated, if that's possible. Cool Hand Luke is probably in my top 10 movies of all time. Just an amazing film.

" It's for your own good, Luke".


I'm not a big fan of movies at all. Cool hand Luke was one, if not the, first movie I sat and watched from beginning to end. Brilliant performances from everyone. Paul Newman, George Kennedy, Strother Martin and a very young Dennis Hopper.

1. Cool Hand Luke
2. The Hudsucker Proxy
3. ?

I've only seen four of his films, so #3 is a choice between Road To Perdition and The Color of Money. I won't select either of those two though, as I'm sure that neither would be anywhere near the top 3 if I'd seen more.
