farewell


Mindlessly browsing the Internet today, I stumble upon tragic news..... Paul Newman, has passed away at 83, on the 26th of September 2008. Its one of those things you know at some point will inevitably happen, and you dread the day you read of it! Well it happened and I read about it 36 hours later.

It would be ridiculous to say that I am deeply saddened to hear of this loss, seeing as I have never met/ personally known Mr. Newman, BUT I AM SAD and it IS A JARRING LOSS.The wonderful world of movies (NOT Hollywood) is just that bit fractured.

Thank you for The Sting, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Cool Hand Luke, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Message in a Bottle, Fat Man and Little Boy, The Hustler, The Colour of Money.... and so many many more.

You did it with grace, integrity and style.
