Possibly the most under-rated actor of all. He very rarely put a foot wrong on film and almost his films were great if not superb, with the odd exception.. 'Twilight' EEK! Yes he played on his natural charm and his good looks, but always behind this was great depth and he always brought a real human being alive in his characters.

And not only was Paul Newman one of the greatest movie actors of all time, he was also a great human being, and these days we needs as many of those as we can get.

There is great human beings. I know some great people who are very generous. They are also people you can trust. I don't know why people act like their isn't any.

Yes this movie is very good. He was a very talented actor who has a lot of good movies. His acting got better and better as he got older.

I'm not sure if Paul Newman and underrated should be in the same sentence. I maybe viewing the term "underrated" differently than you but in my view he has been considered an acting legend for decades. 9 academy award nominations and one of the most popular and respected actors of all time. He's in that same category as Jimmy Stewart and Tom Hanks when it's comes to charm, charisma, ans affability. Saying Paul Newman was underrated is like saying Babe Ruth was underrated. Legend.
