I have a true story to tell about Paul Newman. This happened to a friend of my sister when living in Long Beach California. Paul Newman was in a small ice cream shop sitting at a table. My sister's friend went in to get an ice cream cone and saw him and got so flustered that when she got outside to her car she realized she had left her ice cream cone in the store. She went back inside and Paul Newman said to her, "Mam, you put it in your purse." Isn't that a hoot?
The first contestant Honey Ray, lived to age 90 passing in 2006. She was awarded a Governor General’s Medal in recognition of her contributions to her community.
Paul Newman's reputation and respect as a good person has always held up as far as I know, rare in the entertainment world. His works of philanthropy has carried on after his death under the stewardship of his daughter and maybe other family members. Seeing this clip of a great human being is heartwarming. A person's occupation always ranks second, in my book...ya gotta have impeccable character first. And I think he did. One bright light left us when P.N. passed from this earth.🌌
In the mid 90's I was at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway with my wife and kids. By that time Paul Newman was half of the Newman-Hass Indycar team which had Mario Andretti and Nigel Mansell as drivers, The only time that teammates were both Indycar and Formula 1 champions. We were in the Pit area and noticed Mr Newman approaching on a golf cart, just outside his motor coach he was approached by a group of 40-50 year old ladies who were just the right age to be his fans. I'm sure he was busy but he took a few minutes to visit with them and take a few pictures, they were having the time of their lives. A real class act.
He had just finished the film of "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" and was going to star on Broadway in "Sweet Bird of Youth". Two brilliant performances. He was born to act in Tennessee Williams plays. He was one of the greatest actors of our time.
Actually, Paul had long finished Car on a Hot Tin Roof at this point. It opened in the movie theater on 08/27/1958. Paul’s comedy Rally Round the Flag Boys opened 12/23/1958. CoaHTR was such a success that it was still running at the movie theater on Broadway when RRtFB opened. This appearance on WML is 01/25/1959, the day before his 34th birthday, which made Paul one of the very few guests to have 2 pictures playing on Broadway at the time of their WML appearance.
My high school French teacher and role model had a full length picture of Paul Newman in her personal Locker in the classroom. Every time she opened it, we would see that man from head to toe.
For anyone who doesn't know, David Niven was one of the few British actors living in Hollywood who give up their film career to fight in WW2. Not content with being assigned to a motor training battalion, he transferred into the commandos. He trained at the highly secretive Special Operations Executive, informally named Churchill's Secret Army or the Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. He led "A" squadron, known as the phantoms, who were responsible for penetrating deep behind enemy lines. Taking part in the Allied invasion of Normandy, his squadron was responsible for keeping rear commanders informed on changing battle lines. He rarely talked of his wartime exploits but was well known for being a James Bond like operator.
Segregated sports leagues, racial intolerance was mainstream, children and wives were beaten when they spoke out of turn and careers were ruined over the mere suspicion of inconvenient political ties. Those were the days indeed. You can keep them.
@@Bagheadman yes, I suppose it really depended on the world in which you lived. Obviously not everyones’s experiences are the same.

@@leesher1845 Nor spelling (at least not in the mid ‘90s-early 2000s). Our oldest was a terrible speller even though I tried teaching them early to sound things out (phonetics?). I remember voicing a concern to a teacher when oldest was in jr high/high school. “Oh, we don’t worry about that. They’ll pick it up!” 🤦🏻♀️. My sister & I used to carry on conversations where we’d spell every other word IE: “Look at that brown c o w. Isn’t it c u t e?” Simple, basic. We could get going really fast. Of course, we mainly did it to tweak mom. Lol. She couldn’t spell well. She’d finally tell us to stop. Dad would just grin. Yes, I instigated it. & yes, I could be a stinker. But that’s the worse stuff I ever did.
violetcrumble57 I think a young Brando, Tyrone Power, Harry Belafonte, and Brad Pitt would give him a run for his money but you’re right, he was a gorgeous looking man.
About 25 years ago, we had occasion to visit the Hole in the Wall Gang camp, which is a free camp that he and his wife, Joanne Woodward, founded for children who are seriously ill. They were showing us around the camp, and you could see they really cared about these children. More than that, the children really loved them. There was genuine affection between the kids and the Newmans. I will never forget that visit. I think about that visit and what they did for those children when I hear about celebrities whose money is used used for drugs and rehab and writing books about the drug and rehab experience. The world needs more Newmans.
@@jamesfeldman4234 You should watch the movies The Hustler, The Color of Money, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, and The Sting. All of them are fantastic movies that Paul Newman was in.
Right after this show, like Lucy Ball, and Bette Davis, Newman moved to Westport Connecticut. I used to see him and his wife in town. They lived next to a junior high school in a very ordinary house that looked exactly like everyone else's, with bikes in front of the garage and an older Volvo wagon. Nice people.
My papa looked like Paul's twin! He was constantly told of the resemblance. Women flocked towards my dad his entire life, much to the dismay of mama, but he was loyal to mama to his core.
Maybe they were distant relatives that really were have been something!I have this strong feeling that Paul and Joanne would have truly enjoyed meeting your folks and I think Joanne could quickly make Mama feel better and wouldn’t ever worry again!😇😃😍
When he was in Long, Hot Summer, he did a nighttime scene on a balcony with Joanne Woodward. He was bare chested with a pillow slung over his shoulder. My daughter sighed, "I wish I was that pillow!"
David Niven was a Scot, although his mother was French. Two nationalities that get along very well. In WWII he was first in the Highland Light Infantry and then I believe they transferd him to British Intelligence. As a child he thought he was special. He recited the Lord's Prayer as he heard it, "Our Father which are a Niven!"
Just goes to show you that even the greats started out as rookies, they couldn't even get his name right, Arlene Francis calling him "Paul Noonan", but he's always been a classy guy and one of the greatest actors of all time.
Was at the Kenyon Inn by Kenyon College in Ohio recently and the walls were adorned with photos of Paul Newman as a student there where he majored in economics and -- guess what - drama. He was a great and generous friend to his Alma Mater throughout his life donating many millions of dollars to that fine institution and returning there at a time to teach drama. Student accounts relate his generosity and humility as a relatable person in that role. Just wanted to share that info. about that radiant man. Thank you for the upload.
@@preppysocks209 I have, yet, to see anything from this z person (I think I'm being generous using the word "person"). Somehow, I suspect I should feel grateful.
I disagree. The respectful dress and intellect are brought down by the whistling from (no doubt) male members of the audience whenever an attractive female guest enters. That's not classy at all.
It's so funny that as polite and refined as the panel always is, the audience always seems to whistle and cat-call pretty female contestants.
5 лет назад+11
It would be rude not to. Cat-calling used to be considered a compliment back when intelligence was a virtue. Only idiotic feminists/SJWs would construe a compliment to be an insult or harassment, and a cat-call is just that: a verbal gesture denoting appreciation/admiration/recognition for another - a compliment. Stop drinking the feminist kool-aid before it gives you brain cancer, like it always inevitable does.
@ Just like the game shows and people, cat-calling has changed overtime. Please don't be so quick to insult people, we're all just trying to enjoy the show here.
@ I am not a modern feminist either. I simply don't like perverted men who believe they can say whatever sexual thoughts they have in their mind out loud to a minor.
@ Most women regardless of who they are do not find cat calling a compliment. Maybe if you were an actual woman you'd understand that but of course you're a man and really have no clue accept that if a woman says she doesn't like it calls her a feminist. That's a completely absurd statement, just because a woman doesn't like being cat called or wolf whistled or whatever does NOT mean they are a feminist. Also did you hear any cat calls or wolf whistles when Paul Newman came onto the show, because he is a good looking man that's because women don't do that sort of thing because THEY don't like it done to them. No regardless of what you yourself might think, it is NOT a compliment. You kind of sound like an Idiot.
I was fortunate enough to work for Mr. George Roy Hill.... (director of Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid).... who was a life long friend of Mr. Newman and Mrs. Woodward. They were the most wonderful people in the world. Kind and funny....especially Mr. Newman. "Hi! Newman here!" I would hear.... God bless them.
@@ronnelson6007 Are you thinking of "Road to Perdition", Ron ? That's the 2002 film that co-starred Tom Hanks and Mr Newman. "From the Terrace" is a movie that Mr Newman made with Joanne Woodward in 1960.
Ron n ....yes , thank you jubal. Sorry that I did not capitalize your name, but I just got this tablet, and I am not computer savvy, nor do I know how to.
David Niven ,what an absolute charmer.I also get the feeling Bennet Cerf must have been a really nice man ,as he`s popular with everybody.These were the days ,when men were gentlemen ,and ladies were real ladies.Loving this ,thanks for sharing with us not even born in this era.
Then he wouldn't be as special. Those looks with that deep voice of his and his sense of joie de vivre yet true salt of the earth......unique and one of a kind
Famously the porters at Heathrow Airport sent a large wreath to his funeral with a card that said "To the finest gentleman who ever walked through these halls. He made a porter feel like a king"
Niven, as an officer, led men during WW2 under combat conditions. As far as I know, few men are made of as fine as stuff as he. And while I'm at it, I'll also mention that Newman too served in combat conditions in the Pacific Theater as a radio man/gunner aboard carrier-based dive bombers. This episode featured two great men of a kind.
In the late 1970s, Gil Fates revealed that David Niven told him that during this mystery guest sequence, Niven’s blindfold fell down enough for him to see who this mystery guest was - and he did not recognize him. At all. Even the great start out as Owls. In this case a very handsome owl.
i seen Paul Newman a couple times in his later years when he would occasionally race in the 24 Hours of Daytona.........i said hi to him and he smiled and waved.......and another time this older cougar type lady said to him ......Paul take off your sunglasses so we can see those pretty blue eyes!!"......he just smiled and replied....." nope.....if i take my shades off, my pants fall down!".........he was a really good guy.....very friendly
When the lady who came in that makes saddles, before they said what she did, I guessed she'd be a prison guard. I can always tell when it's a good looking woman when the men in the audience whistle. Great show. Thank you for this video.
By January 1959, Newman had married to Joanne Woodward, and stayed married til' death did them part in 2008. Woodward is still alive at 84, as of 2014.
@@sharksport01 She is, still, with us in Nov 2020. As of the passing of Olivia de Havilland this past July, Ms. Woodward is the oldest living Oscar winner. She is 90 years old. She and Paul had 3 daughters, all, still, alive and kicking.
I always thought David Niven was a competent actor and that was about it, but when I saw him in SEPARATE TABLES, I thought his acting is great in this one, so I bought the dvd. I didn't pay much attention to Paul Newman's looks, but I see here that a lot of women here did. He also was in some well written films. that became famous ones. His wife was a great actress too, they were equal when it came to talent.
Paul Newman's brother was a baseball player. My gym teacher in college, who went on to become a pro ball player himself, was his friend. My teacher said many times he would visit his friend and he would see Paul Newman doing exercises to tone his stomach muscles
So I was at NYU in '80 and roaming around Greenwich village on a gorgeous spring day. I turn a corner (couldn't tell you the street) and there, leaning against a mailbox was Paul Newman. He had a coffee (the old blue paper diner cups. Pre Starbucks) in his hand. Our eyes met. He slowly shook his head from side to side as if to say, "not today." So I slinked away. But he was beautiful.
I just want to thank you as a new sub… we are only 50 but in todays standards that’s really really young to remember let alone appreciate this show. I’ll be honest, my friends always chuckle at my husband and I that we love other than The Breakfast Club and Sixteen candles ( John Hughes ) old black and white tv and movies. This show is AMAZING!!!! Question… did Marlon Brando ever appear? Paul Newman… my god. 🥵 thank you for no ads and thank you for amazing content!!!! These have been our bedtime routine now for weeks. It’s great!!!! I’m Shocked they haven’t remade it today. 💜
The difference in mannerisms and general social dynamics between people seen here and present day entertainment professionals is dramatic. Note how people from this earlier era speak and respond more slowly, politely and thoughtfully. It seems the internet era has brought with it a real change in how people in entertainment generally behave. In our "one click society", those in the spotlight are usually abrupt, verbally quick and seldom offer well-developed, rational thoughts. It's no wonder we're a divided country. Wish I knew the solution. Watching old movie classics such as War of the Worlds, The Time Machine and many others I have noticed the same thing. A slower pace in dialog, and much more "content" in the script writing.
Damn! Paul Newman is PURTY! If you can imagine a guy that looked quite a bit like Paul with a touch of John Wayne, THAT was my dear ol' Dad. And just like Paul, Damn! Dad was PURTY! What the hell happened to ME?? LOL!
An interesting piece of trivia is that Niven and Newman would compete with each other in the coming months for the Oscar for Best Actor, Niven for "Separate Tables" and Newman for "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof." Niven would win.

@@janetmarletto6667 I agree. Also, the brain-to-hand skills/connections used when writing in cursive are important for neurological development. I feel bad for the generation(s) not receiving lessons in this beneficial skill.

Nor spelling (at least not in the mid ‘90s-early 2000s). Our oldest was a terrible speller even though I tried teaching them early to sound things out (phonetics?). I remember voicing a concern to a teacher when oldest was in jr high/high school. “Oh, we don’t worry about that. They’ll pick it up!” 🤦🏻♀️. My sister & I used to carry on conversations where we’d spell every other word IE: “Look at that brown c o w. Isn’t it
c u t e?” Simple, basic. We could get going really fast. Of course, we mainly did it to tweak mom. Lol. She couldn’t spell well. She’d finally tell us to stop. Dad would just grin. Yes, I instigated it. & yes, I could be a stinker. But that’s the worse stuff I ever did.
Paul Newman was definitely the best looking actor ever !!!!!
violetcrumble57
Could be...
violetcrumble57 marlon no doubt
Some people think that would be Humphrey Bogart.
violetcrumble57 I think a young Brando, Tyrone Power, Harry Belafonte, and Brad Pitt would give him a run for his money but you’re right, he was a gorgeous looking man.
eve rhear of tyrone power and robert taylor...get with the program!
About 25 years ago, we had occasion to visit the Hole in the Wall Gang camp, which is a free camp that he and his wife, Joanne Woodward, founded for children who are seriously ill. They were showing us around the camp, and you could see they really cared about these children. More than that, the children really loved them. There was genuine affection between the kids and the Newmans. I will never forget that visit.
I think about that visit and what they did for those children when I hear about celebrities whose money is used used for drugs and rehab and writing books about the drug and rehab experience. The world needs more Newmans.
What a kind hearted man Paul Newman was. Selling his salad dressing and spaghetti sauce for Camp good times for children ❤️
❤️❤️
In less than 10 years Paul Newman would go on to be a mega star.
10 YEARS??? YOU MORON, HE WAS ALREADY A MEGA STAR!
I don't know who this Paul Newman character is, but he makes some great grocery products.
😄
@@jamesfeldman4234 You should watch the movies The Hustler, The Color of Money, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, and The Sting. All of them are fantastic movies that Paul Newman was in.
wow paul newman makes my heart flutter
Christian music Christian music
Andrea, try Meldonium, 500 mg BID . It worked for Sharapovd
He was no Huntz Hall but he was indeed one very handsome fella.
Right after this show, like Lucy Ball, and Bette Davis, Newman moved to Westport Connecticut. I used to see him and his wife in town. They lived next to a junior high school in a very ordinary house that looked exactly like everyone else's, with bikes in front of the garage and an older Volvo wagon. Nice people.
If it was a gray Volvo wagon, it may have been the one he had with a V8 racing engine.
@@BobGeogeo Interesting.
I loved how everyone dressed up for the show! Arlene Francis was wearing such a beautiful gown on this episode. Oh my, Paul Newman was so handsome!
What a great actor Paul Newman was too many hits to name... definitely is missed
My papa looked like Paul's twin! He was constantly told of the resemblance. Women flocked towards my dad his entire life, much to the dismay of mama, but he was loyal to mama to his core.
I bet the boys wanted to talk cars and racing with your Dad since Paul was a pro racer
Maybe they were distant relatives that really were have been something!I have this strong feeling that Paul and Joanne would have truly enjoyed meeting your folks and I think Joanne could quickly make Mama feel better and wouldn’t ever worry again!😇😃😍
When he was in Long, Hot Summer, he did a nighttime scene on a balcony with Joanne Woodward. He was bare chested with a pillow slung over his shoulder. My daughter sighed, "I wish I was that pillow!"
If I had a wish, it would have been to be Joanne Woodward.
Lovely film. Paul is just pure gold.
How old was your daughter at the time?
@@robertlongwill2077 About 15
Paul Newman. A delicious man and an equally delicious salad dressing.
LOL !
All the products are good!
Yes, he was one handsome bloke and all his "Newman's Own" products are tasty and top quality !
You should really put that on a tshirt
It’s funny and true 😊

What a wonderful time to be alive 💙 🇺🇸 💖
When I was a teenager in the 1970s, my bedroom was a Paul Newman shrine. I adored that man and saw every single one of his movies.
Cordelia Brown I’m sure you were not alone. What a beautiful looking man! A human work of art really.
David Niven was a Scot, although his mother was French. Two nationalities that get along very well. In WWII he was first in the Highland Light Infantry and then I believe they transferd him to British Intelligence. As a child he thought he was special. He recited the Lord's Prayer as he heard it, "Our Father which are a Niven!"
Just goes to show you that even the greats started out as rookies, they couldn't even get his name right, Arlene Francis calling him "Paul Noonan", but he's always been a classy guy and one of the greatest actors of all time.
Paul cared enough, to create charities, that helped others less fortunate.
Was at the Kenyon Inn by Kenyon College in Ohio recently and the walls were adorned with photos of Paul Newman as a student there where he majored in economics and -- guess what - drama. He was a great and generous friend to his Alma Mater throughout his life donating many millions of dollars to that fine institution and returning there at a time to teach drama. Student accounts relate his generosity and humility as a relatable person in that role. Just wanted to share that info. about that radiant man. Thank you for the upload.
I was 9, and caught a glimpse of this program. Didn't know any of them, but much, much later recognized Niven
Paul Newman and David Niven are both divine here.
Newman and Daly were extremely annoying the way they constantly huddled in whispered conferences without telling the panel.
Lord have mercy that's one fine man. Newman. Those eyes that smile. Take me back so I can marry him.
No offense but He had met his wife while acting with her and fell Hard for Her Look how long their marriage lasted!!
Good luck with that missus ….
@z How many times are you going to keep making this comment?
Little did we know that one day we would be having Newman's Own food line of products. Pretty tasty too.
I love it when the panel are all at sea with their deductions.
Paul Newman. One of my Dad's favorite actors.
God, Paul Newman was beautiful
@z I'll invoke whatever I want, God damn it.
@@ameliafroehlich2577 yes, z makes comments that detract rather than add to the conversation
@@preppysocks209 I have, yet, to see anything from this z person (I think I'm being generous using the word "person"). Somehow, I suspect I should feel grateful.
I used to see Paul a lot when he was a car owner for Indy Cart racing. Used to drink Budweiser out of a can and was still gorgeous.
It's amazing how much more eloquent and well-educated people on TV were back then. They can actually form coherent sentences.
So handsome- beautiful features, & those blue eyes... IMO, perfect in every way 🩷
Paul newman so handsome you did a splebdid job in tricking the panel you are missed especially now in this crazy world we live in
Ah, back when people dressed respectfully and with some class.
The audience had more class then than the so called "talent" today.
People keep telling me that class is relative. No, it is not. Class is hard to come by these days, and money doesn't buy it.
They were so dignified in speech and appearance.
I disagree. The respectful dress and intellect are brought down by the whistling from (no doubt) male members of the audience whenever an attractive female guest enters. That's not classy at all.
When people looked classy and acted decently 💙🇺🇸
Tennessee Williams' classic movie, "Cat On A Hot Tin Roof" with Elizabeth Taylor, Paul Newman, Burl Ives & many others. Excellent performances by all!
I know this was 63 years ago, but the idea of Paul Newman not being a Hollywood actor is mind boggling.
I had to confirm that for some time he was better known as a stage actor than on film! If ever I knew that I’d forgotten it.
Great actor and humanitarian. And a handsome man. I live in Stamford, Ct. He lived with Joanne in Westport, Ct.
Can you imagine waking up to that face every morning? 😀
I would think I was still dreaming.
Get in line girls!!
They still show Cat on a Hot Tin Roof on Turner Classic Movies. A wonderful, moving film.
Yes. I've lived that. It is a beautiful thing
@@Deejaay83urj38😮
He was a great actor 😍🤩. I wish there would be more actors like him now.
Such a beautiful man, inside and out!
I love this show.I hate the brainless junk on TV we have now...Paul Newman was very beautiful .Beautiful face,I bet the rest is too.
AmeRicanItalianIsrael Even now?
AmeRicanItalianIsrael there is good stuff if you look hard. Like "When Calls the Heart" Much great programming on PureFlix and Dove Channels
Watch Sweet Bird of Youth ( the original version) his body was amazing too.
It's so funny that as polite and refined as the panel always is, the audience always seems to whistle and cat-call pretty female contestants.
It would be rude not to. Cat-calling used to be considered a compliment back when intelligence was a virtue. Only idiotic feminists/SJWs would construe a compliment to be an insult or harassment, and a cat-call is just that: a verbal gesture denoting appreciation/admiration/recognition for another - a compliment. Stop drinking the feminist kool-aid before it gives you brain cancer, like it always inevitable does.
@ Just like the game shows and people, cat-calling has changed overtime. Please don't be so quick to insult people, we're all just trying to enjoy the show here.
@ catcalling today has lost its class. It's mostly sexual nowadays.
@ I am not a modern feminist either. I simply don't like perverted men who believe they can say whatever sexual thoughts they have in their mind out loud to a minor.
@ Most women regardless of who they are do not find cat calling a compliment. Maybe if you were an actual woman you'd understand that but of course you're a man and really have no clue accept that if a woman says she doesn't like it calls her a feminist. That's a completely absurd statement, just because a woman doesn't like being cat called or wolf whistled or whatever does NOT mean they are a feminist. Also did you hear any cat calls or wolf whistles when Paul Newman came onto the show, because he is a good looking man that's because women don't do that sort of thing because THEY don't like it done to them. No regardless of what you yourself might think, it is NOT a compliment. You kind of sound like an Idiot.
" Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," Cool Hand Luke "and the "Sting " are just some of the great movies this man starred in!
I was fortunate enough to work for Mr. George Roy Hill.... (director of Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid).... who was a life long friend of Mr. Newman and Mrs. Woodward. They were the most wonderful people in the world. Kind and funny....especially Mr. Newman. "Hi! Newman here!" I would hear.... God bless them.
And don't forget powerful performances in "The Hustler" and "The Verdict" !!
@@jubalcalif9100 he was great in from the terrace, the movie with Tom Hanks,
@@ronnelson6007 Are you thinking of "Road to Perdition", Ron ? That's the 2002 film that co-starred Tom Hanks and Mr Newman. "From the Terrace" is a movie that Mr Newman made with Joanne Woodward in 1960.
Ron n ....yes , thank you jubal. Sorry that I did not capitalize your name, but I just got this tablet, and I am not computer savvy, nor do I know how to.
I think I saw this knife-throwing act at the Charlottetown Exhibition when I was a child. I remember her very red hair.
David Niven ,what an absolute charmer.I also get the feeling Bennet Cerf must have been a really nice man ,as he`s popular with everybody.These were the days ,when men were gentlemen ,and ladies were real ladies.Loving this ,thanks for sharing with us not even born in this era.
Mr. Newman was a very handsome man. Great actor should have won the Academy Award for his performance in 'The Verdict'.
American dreamer. Paul newmandid win an oscar for the verdict only one he did win
@@lornaharrington1885 Paul Newman won his Academy Award for 'The Color Of Money'. Some Fan you are!
Oh sweet Lord, what a simply gorgeous man, with a wonderful voice. Imagine if there was 50 000 000 of him around.
The rest of us wouldn't get anything done because we'd spend all our time staring at them.
Then he wouldn't be as special. Those looks with that deep voice of his and his sense of joie de vivre yet true salt of the earth......unique and one of a kind
Yes, John Daly was not only a good host but one good lookin' chap !
There'd be an awful lot of salad drsssing to get through.
If David Niven was half the class act in private life that he was in public, he was quite a gentleman.
Famously the porters at Heathrow Airport sent a large wreath to his funeral with a card that said "To the finest gentleman who ever walked through these halls. He made a porter feel like a king"
Niven, as an officer, led men during WW2 under combat conditions. As far as I know, few men are made of as fine as stuff as he. And while I'm at it, I'll also mention that Newman too served in combat conditions in the Pacific Theater as a radio man/gunner aboard carrier-based dive bombers. This episode featured two great men of a kind.
Fabulous film stars. What have we now.
*Cat on a Hot Tin Roof* is ferociously fierce. Newman and Taylor squaring off. The whole family blowing up. A great favorite.
Is there anyone more suave than Paul Newman? Ah yes, David Niven. Great episode! :D
The late great Percy Helton was rather debonair in own way too !!
The class and composer Im seeing in these people indicates a moral goodness that we as a people have somehow lost along the way .
Paul Newman and David Niven on one show - fuckin' hell, what an era.
Arlene's dress is stunning! She's radiant in it! 🥰
Interesting that John Daly picked up on Paul's future directing/producing efforts. What an all around talent.
In the late 1970s, Gil Fates revealed that David Niven told him that during this mystery guest sequence, Niven’s blindfold fell down enough for him to see who this mystery guest was - and he did not recognize him. At all. Even the great start out as Owls. In this case a very handsome owl.
maybe that explains why Niven had really no reaction when they shook hands....
Great anecdote.
i seen Paul Newman a couple times in his later years when he would occasionally race in the 24 Hours of Daytona.........i said hi to him and he smiled and waved.......and another time this older cougar type lady said to him ......Paul take off your sunglasses so we can see those pretty blue eyes!!"......he just smiled and replied....." nope.....if i take my shades off, my pants fall down!".........he was a really good guy.....very friendly
Honey Ray had a very long life. She passed away in 2006 at the age of 90 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
When the lady who came in that makes saddles, before they said what she did, I guessed she'd be a prison guard. I can always tell when it's a good looking woman when the men in the audience whistle. Great show. Thank you for this video.
By January 1959, Newman had married to Joanne Woodward, and stayed married til' death did them part in 2008.
Woodward is still alive at 84, as of 2014.
Vahan Nisanian And still alive as of 2018.
I was born five days after this program first aired!
Still alive as of 2019! I hope she lives a longer and wonderful life!
Paul's only son Scott died at age 28. Joanne is alive as of january 2019 but has had Alzheimer's for many years.
@@sharksport01 She is, still, with us in Nov 2020. As of the passing of Olivia de Havilland this past July, Ms. Woodward is the oldest living Oscar winner. She is 90 years old. She and Paul had 3 daughters, all, still, alive and kicking.
The most beautiful actor ever. And aged beautifully.
I would like to be as good-looking as Paul Newman for just one day.
Would be interesting to know what it feels like and how people treat you but he didn't appear full of himself. More like a regular Joe.
How extraordinary to think of him as not a movie actor!
Two of Paul Newman's lesser known movies I always liked were "The Secret War Of Harry Frigg" and "The Prize".
"Frigg" was one of his worst movie performances ever. He always portrayed soldiers and police officers as idiots.
I always thought David Niven was a competent actor and that was about it, but when I saw him in SEPARATE TABLES, I thought his acting is great in this one, so I bought the dvd. I didn't pay much attention to Paul Newman's looks, but I see here that a lot of women here did. He also was in some well written films. that became famous ones. His wife was a great actress too, they were equal when it came to talent.
PAUL WAS A WAY BETTER ACTOR THAN HIS WIFE, SHE SUCKED, IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE, LIKE YOU
Walker, quite ignorant and disgusting. Watch Paris Blues. Woodward was superb
Paul Newman's brother was a baseball player. My gym teacher in college, who went on to become a pro ball player himself, was his friend. My teacher said many times he would visit his friend and he would see Paul Newman doing exercises to tone his stomach muscles
My neighbors stepmom knew Paul Newmans 2nd cousins milkman’s sisters cousins smelly gym teacher🤣
So I was at NYU in '80 and roaming around Greenwich village on a gorgeous spring day. I turn a corner (couldn't tell you the street) and there, leaning against a mailbox was Paul Newman. He had a coffee (the old blue paper diner cups. Pre Starbucks) in his hand. Our eyes met. He slowly shook his head from side to side as if to say, "not today." So I slinked away. But he was beautiful.
Newman was a humble class act…
I just want to thank you as a new sub… we are only 50 but in todays standards that’s really really young to remember let alone appreciate this show. I’ll be honest, my friends always chuckle at my husband and I that we love other than The Breakfast Club and Sixteen candles ( John Hughes ) old black and white tv and movies. This show is AMAZING!!!! Question… did Marlon Brando ever appear? Paul Newman… my god. 🥵 thank you for no ads and thank you for amazing content!!!! These have been our bedtime routine now for weeks. It’s great!!!! I’m
Shocked they haven’t remade it today. 💜
The difference in mannerisms and general social dynamics between people seen here and present day entertainment professionals is dramatic. Note how people from this earlier era speak and respond more slowly, politely and thoughtfully. It seems the internet era has brought with it a real change in how people in entertainment generally behave. In our "one click society", those in the spotlight are usually abrupt, verbally quick and seldom offer well-developed, rational thoughts. It's no wonder we're a divided country. Wish I knew the solution. Watching old movie classics such as War of the Worlds, The Time Machine and many others I have noticed the same thing. A slower pace in dialog, and much more "content" in the script writing.
WE need this show made again today!
Damn! Paul Newman is PURTY! If you can imagine a guy that looked quite a bit like Paul with a touch of John Wayne, THAT was my dear ol' Dad. And just like Paul, Damn! Dad was PURTY!
What the hell happened to ME?? LOL!
@@gallopingalumphus5390 That's why I grew a beard. It hides my face.
He was very generous on Ct. He and his wife gave a lot of more to the local theater in Westport where they lived .
An interesting piece of trivia is that Niven and Newman would compete with each other in the coming months for the Oscar for Best Actor, Niven for "Separate Tables" and Newman for "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof." Niven would win.
Paul Newman...a nice man and a TRUE great...
