Paul Newman and Francis Ford Coppola
In my Feb. 21 Noshing Around column, I write about some red-carpet event at Fleming's Prime Steakhouse and Wine Bar that will feature the wines of Francis Ford Coppola and introduces Newman's Own wines.
That got me thinking about movies, specifically, my favorite Paul Newman movies.
Off the top of my curly head, I'd have to say Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (and I always thought Paul should've been romancing Katherine Ross), Exodus (the man had courage and charisma) and Verdict, very intense. The fact that he's stayed married to Joanne Woodward all these years is a real turn on.
What's your favorite Paul Newman flick?
Then there's Francis Ford Coppola, who to me is synonymous with The Godfather, but that's only part of his fame.
Let's talk celluloid and silver screen.
