Let’s Be Thankful for Paul Newman

Paul Newman was a very handsome young man and a theater kid, so he spent the ’60s getting Oscar nominations for playing maladjusted ne’er-do-wells in moralistic social dramas, rebelling against middle-class America, and also looking cool. You know the pictures: The Hustler, Hud, Cool Hand Luke, among many others. What luxury, to complain about the state of society all the way to the top of the celebrity pyramid!
