Finally, Orson says, "Jesus Christ, I feel like I'm riding a tricycle in molasses!" And as an aside, Inside The Actor's Studio is a show hosted by an egomaniac punk named James Lipton who doesn't have the good sense to interview some of the founding members of actual The Actor's Studio such as Academy Award Nominee Kevin McCarthy (DEATH OF A SALESMAN 1951(!) who is soon turning 95 in February, is still sharp and would make a GREAT interview on the show. Nah, instead, as Kevin says, in a very Newmanesque way, "Let me tell you about that guy, I know him, my daughter went to that school...he's a star fucker!" But rest assured, Lipton will go out of his way to have those scions of the acting craft such as Teri Hatcher, Ray Romano and Adam Sandler on for their striking insights into acting. I'll shut up now. Btw, here's a great article from Esquire when Newman was 75. http://www.esquire.com/features/graceful-exit-0500 Glad we had him, Patrick On Sep 27, 2008, at 10:13 AM, Toochis Morin wrote: They both made more contributions to the world than their acting or their beauty.

I had heard thatshe hasn't been doing well, but the video was really shocking--she looked sofrail, confined to a wheel-chair.One of the reporters made the comment that this could very likely be herlast public appearance. I began thinking about one of my favorite Taylorfilms, "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof," and how absolutely stunning she and PaulNewman looked in that film--both being at their peak in physical beauty. Areal sadness came over me...cursing "the ravages of time," if you'll pardonthe cliché. Now I wake up on a Saturday morning and see that Paul Newman is gone. Oh, the ravages of time....ScottMoPo List Owner Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___________________________________________________________________ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.
