RIP, Paul

I've read so many moving tributes in the last day, anything I were to add at this point would just be extraneous. The world is a little bit diminished today.

This is a great little movie that hardly anyone saw. It was one of Newman's last films (and Jessica Tandy's last). I can't imagine anyone else who could've made curmudgeonly Sully so likeable.

Thanks for that tribute. One of the most exciting things that ever
happened to me was meeting him briefly in the 70's. Was sweet, charming & very nice. Janet

I'll be putting that on Netflix as well. I was expecting his passing but it is still so very sad. He will be missed.

Wonderful movie. This is my dad's and my favorite movie. It's as good as the book, which is saying a lot. He was amazing.
