i cant beleive they left Hud out..his best performance besides The Hustler

Not the best representation of his work, IMHO

Of course, The Hustler and Butch Cassidy are at the top of any Paul Newman list, but the rest kinda falls short.

For overlooked ones, how about Harper? Bill Goldman screenplay, too.
And a real wonderful one is, Sometimes a Great Notion from the Ken Kesey novel.

How Many H films did he do?

Hud
Harper
Hombre
Hustler
Hemingway's...

Still missing and overlooked for reasons I dont understand Newmans WUSA 1970.

Please someone put that out for crying out loud!!

Are some of these never-before-released titles going to also be released as singles? I'd really like to have/see Merchant Ivory's QUINTET, a long missing-in-action MI film.
