Paul Newman’s brutally honest words (Page 2 ) | August 28, 2024

Annonce:

The 1969 movie about the real-life outlaws won four Oscars and holds up as one of the greatest Westerns ever made. Four years later, the stars–both handsome heartthrobs–partnered up again for another caper film, The Sting (1973).

Newman and Redford are both legends and together, they made magic happen. But have you ever wondered how the Hollywood stars got along off the set?

Newman, who played Butch when he was 44, confessed that he wanted the role played by the younger Redford, who at the time was 33.

In an interview with BBC’s Talking Pictures, Newman said, “We have a lot of fun together, we bounce off each other really well.” He continued, “I would have preferred to have played Sundance. I feel a little more comfortable with that cooled-out kind of quality. I suppose it’s the easier part!”
