Entry for August 14, 2008

Can't believe it's taken me so long to post this link to an amazing Vanity Fair article about PL.

It's pretty detailed (8 pages!) and treats his life and career with dignity. Very proud that the press is respecting him so.

Hubba Hubba

Big long article about PLN in Oxford American Magazine. Great photo (haven't seen that one before! is he holding a pepper shaker in his hand? Why? I LOVE IT!) and commentaries on all of Paul's movies set in the South. No plot point cleaned up for the screen is safe in this scathing article, but the author commends Paul's performances even if he had to work with scripts that were less than true to the author's original intention. And while the article's author tries to do a "what if" Newman and Woodward were cast in Bonnie and Clyde, I'm not sure I'm following the logic of it here.

Paul graces the cover of this month's Biography magazine. Check it out, it's got quite a spread on the man...the myth...the legend...

December 14th, 1999

Okay, it's been there since 1963 but I've finally gotten around to uploading the hands and feet to the site. Take a look.

March 1998

Paul appears in Vanity Fair magazine's annual "Hollywood Issue" labelled as "The Original" - photographed by Annie Liebowitz on February 8th, 1998 while taking his daily dip in the stream near his Westport CT home. (Connecticut-February-water? Nuff said.)
