  1. Sad news indeed. I can remember coming out of the Roxy and actually wanting to be Cool Hand Luke.

    I’ve never eaten a boiled egg since.

  2. I don’t care if it rains or freezes
    Long as I got my plastic Jesus
    Sitting on the dashboard of my car

    Comes in colors, pink and pleasant
    Glows in the dark because it’s iridescent
    Take it with you when you travel far

    Get yourself a sweet Madonna
    Dressed in rhinestone, sitting on a
    Pedestal of abalone shells

    Going ninety, I ain’t scary
    Because I got the Virgin Mary
    Assuring me that I won’t go to Hell

    Get yourself a sweet Madonna

    Pedestal of abalone shells

    Assuring me that I won’t go to Hell

  3. R.I.P. Even guys have to admit that he must have been the most handsome man!? He reminds me of my dad. Unfortunately I look like my mam’s brothers!!

  4. I remember sneaking in to see Cool Hand Luke in the late 60s in Waterford. What a film! The orchestral version of Plastic Jesus is also very moving. What a career. What a man, he’ll be long remembered.

  5. A true star and so much more.He had a strong belief in luck and I think he passed this luck on to the countless kids he helped through his Foundation.RIP.

  6. Did you ever taste his sauces ? Lovely….

    RIP Mr. Newman

  7. Very sad to see him go.

  8. What a hero he was. A great actor and, by all accounts, a wonderful human being. He also stood out from the pack by maintaining a high quality of work into his old age. Good sauces too. RIP and thanks, Mr Newman.
