robin andrea, Beverly Hills, USA

He was the best kind of human.

Doug S, Williams, OR, USA

I had the privilege of growing up in the era of Paul Newman. From the get-go, I felt he would be a great movie star, and so he was. His sincerity, karisma, respect and caring for mankind is truly that of a good man. One of the few actors who kept his private life secure.

Shirley Steinman, Toronto, Canada

A terrible loss to us today. Paul was a terrific actor and a giving human being. Many people would do well to follow his ways. I loved all his movies. Terrific actor & person. He will be greatly missed. So long, Blue Eyes! God be with you! Condolences to Paul's family.

Patty W, Beachwood, NJ, USA

My hope is that we try to live a life of helping our fellow man as he did. As an actor he was a classic, as a person he was a saint. Rest in peace .

Stella, Florida, USA

A wonderful human being and a wonderful actor I will miss his presence. Rest in peace.

helen angus, hobart, Australia

A true star-Not only a brilliant actor, but his twinkly blue eyes showed his heart, a great big generous heart ,that went out to so many less fortunate, by giving MILLIONS to charitable organisations . Your selflessness is an inspiring legacy.

Jill M, Cambridge, UK

A throughly decent person and an example to all. Rest in peace.

sally Wills, pontevedra, spain

Paul did his best in all areas of his life, an all round great guy. A shining example to others in all aspects of life. Rest well Paul you've been a busy guy.

ian, aberdeen, uk

Paul Newman, a woderful, beautiful human being. And note that he never did any of the tasteless, sexual scenes that almost every actor today participates in. And why? Because, as he said, lovemaking is a very private, personal thing which to him, had no place in the public view.

Alexander Barnett, Arlington, United States

Thank you Paul Newman. You were a good decent Human Being , a fine family man and an example to us all.In the day of cheap so called Celebrity you stood like a Colossus.
God Bless you Paul.

Tara, Liverpool, U.K.

Paul Newman reminds me of a simpler more honest time. He was the epitome of a true Hollywood legend and more importantly, to me anyway, he reminds me of my dear father whom I lost not long ago.

Madeleine, Toronto,

One of life's true gentlemen.....what is the secret to keeping your feet on the ground when you live in the world of celeb?
Paul Newman and his wife Joanne are a good example for good old fashioned love. A life well lived - RIP Paul.

Janette Cowley, Seaforth, Australia

One of the great actors of our time and my favorite, Mr. Newman had a style for owning the roles he played. From Cool Hand Luke to Nobody's Fool , he was unique. To Mrs. Newman & the rest of the Newman family I offer my sincere condolences.

Faye D., Chicago, USA

My sister-in-law works at the Hole in the Wall camp outside of Ballymore Eustice, Ireland and I have seen the amazing work that has been done. It will be a blessing to have this great work continue... thank you Mr. Newman.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Keith , Manitowoc, USA

In a world so filled w/deceit, selfish behaviours, envy, jealousy, greed & hatred Paul Newman made it just that much brighter. Thank you so much Paul for being someone my parents idolized & respected and as a result I too came to appreciate & admire your unselfish, generous & loving ways.

Jane Atkin, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

We have all lost a 'Mountain of a Man'.
God needed someone special yesterday and he chose the best. Peace and Blessing to all his beloved.

Azzah, Vancouver, Canada

My heart goes out to Joanne Woodward and Paul Newman's family... I grew up watching every Paul Newman film.. Our country has lost a true legend.. You will be truly missed... Thank you for making such legendary movie moments!

Jackie Graham, Albuquerque, USA

Paul Newman was a perfect man. Easy on the eyes, a heart full of love and a humble, quiet legend. The world is a better place because of his generosity and love.

Marie Green, Scarborough, Maine, USA

Loved his films

jan, london, uk

I had the pleasure of meeting him when I was a camper at The Hole in the Wall. He has impacted so many, and never acted like he was famous. I think he got so much joy out of watching the kids. He said once did a performance with campers and said that "the kids are the reason he was there."

Alisha Hoelle, Gibbstown, USA

Reggie Dunlap has died! Hockey fans across the world are saddened.His character will continue to live on in hockey players\fans by way of "Slapshot". Paul will live forever through his work. What an actor, what a loss...."God Bless" you Paul and family.

Jadene Tarabrin, Johnstown, , USA

Paul Newman was my "forever crush". Handsome, kind, generous and talented. How lucky we are to have him live forever through his charities and on film.

Julie, Phoenixville, USA

No mention of his illustrious motorsport career? Typical! Single dimensional obituary typical of mass media outlets.

RIP Mr Newman. Legend in MANY ways!

jj, Perth, Australia

A fine actor, a fine philanthropist, a great Hollywood star, and a very decent man.

David Russell, Sheffield, UK

Won one oscar, should have won at least three.
I feel the hand of time on my shoulder today, nearly all the great stars of my youth have gone now, intimations of one's own mortality.
Newman was a true screen giant, and a true gentleman.
R.I.P

Michael Rigby, blackburn,

Don't it make my brown eyes blue. Rest in peace to a noble humanitarian and a great artist.

Tricia , RESTON, United States

Newman is who Brando could have been had Brando not become unhinged.

Philip Fritz , Lockhart TX,

I believe I saw every movie Paul Newman was ever part of - but, I loved him best because he stood for values that few movie stars of the 1990's 2000's have stood up to!!! I remember him coming to Bar Harbor, Maine like any proud father!!! He was a great performer, father and husband!!! Alice Long

Alice Long, Bar Harbor, USA

Roman poet Horace said of his work, "I have built myself a monument more lasting than bronze". Beautiful Paul Newman could say that of his career, his charitable works, his exemplary private life as the husband of Joanne Woodward and father to his children.

John T. Lucas, Victoria, Canada

Thank you for wonderful performances: Cool Hand Luke, Butch Cassidy, The Sting. Thank you for your generosity and for the inspiration you have provided others. You left your mark Mr. Newman. God bless.

Brian, Trumbull, CT, USA

What a legacy to leave behind!!. A real star. You'll be missed...One of my favourite roles but little acknowledged ones was your part in "Message In a Bottle" Loved you in that!! Always imagined you were kinda like Dodge in person. RIP.

Kelly O'Heron, Peterborough, Canada

A real "man"
The world has lost some of its colour.
".......Go gentle into that good night"

Martyn Taylor, Swindon, England

Too sad. We've just watched Long, Hot Summer and Hud back to back for my birthday. What a fine actor. What a beautiful man. My sincere condolences to his family particularly Ms. Joanne Woodward. Their chemistry on and off screen was and is enviable.

Paula, Portland, OR,

I met Paul Newman at the Hole in the wall gang summer camp in the east coast. I talked with him too. He was such a kind good person. The great and kind things he has done for the world will stay forever. I am now a local theater actor due to his inspiration and guidance. Thank you Paul !

Woody D, Morro Bay . CA, United States of America

Simply the best. Goodbye, Paul and thank you.

Simon, Savoie, France

The definition of class. The mold really was broken when it comes to making comparisons to what Paul Newman embodied.
Self-less in all the right ways and driven in all the right ways, someone who was blessed with great talents and one who shared them like few others in his time.

Peter, edmonton, canada

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.
A beautiful man.

Lena, Oglesby, USA

Once you said why you were true to your wife because why would you go for hamburger when you had steak at home..you were always a gentleman to the end and we learned lots from your decency and your example that living genuinely and faithfully does indeed fulfill

Suzanne, Orlando, USA

83, a good age, yes, I knew he was very ill, so was prepared, however tears are being shed as it is never easy to say goodbye to a superlative actor and a good man or maybe I should say a good man and a superlative actor. I loved him in all his films from all the decades. God bless you Paul.

Joanne, Brentwood, England

You served your country, loved your family, respected others - what a tribute (Bill Mahoney) and what a gentleman you were. You perfected your craft over a life time and led by generosity and good example. We will all miss you.

Petronella , Montreal, Quebec, Canada

a kiss from corunna


Slowly and sadly we laid him down,
From the field of his fame fresh and gory;
We carved not a line, and we raised not a stone,
But we left him alone with his glory.----
Tom Wolfe Poem

cipriano, corunna, spain

So many alleged actors today are little more than stars. Newman was truly an actor and a great one at that.

Bruce L. Northwood, Washington, D.C., USA

We weren't ready to see you go, Paul. Your life is a shining -- and daunting -- example of the potential of one man.

NMG, Cincinnati, USA

We all watched Paul in the movies. Maybe even bought his salad dressings. But for me the connection was through his auto racing background. At Lime Rock, Conn. Tran's-AM race one day, he came in 1st overall and in class in a Nissan. Great driver. Even greater person. My condolences to his family

john, santa rosa, ca, U.S.A.

Through James Dean's untimely death, Paul Newman took on his role in Somebody Up There Likes Me and a new star was born. Went on to be liked by everybody in the Butch Cassidy and Sting films. His passing is a huge loss to films and mankind. What a gentleman! Twinkle away with the bright stars!

William Bonett, Lymington, Hampshire, UK

a damn fine actor,the hustler,cool hand luke,classics,greatly missed.

aran bell, london, uk

Great actor, great human being and a very cool guy to boot.

Rest in peace Paul Newman, you will never be forgotten.

Paul, London,

Butch Cassidy no more! Hard to believe. One of the best actors of all times has gone. One more of the mystical 60s and 70s lost to the world. I am going to watch all the Newman classics as a respect to him. That is the Colour of Life.

Pallav Purkayastha, Lucknow, India

What a wonderful guy. A real gentleman with genuine values and kindness and no ego. What a loss.

CHARLIE, LONDON, United Kingdom

A Real Cool Hand. I'm sure he put up the same fight with the cancer that he gave Drag. I am better man by seeing how he lived his life. God speed.

Tom, Philly, US

Handsomest man I ever saw in my life, and talented, courageous, kind, and wonderfully masculine (in a good way.). What a reproach to the botoxed zeroes who pass for leading men in today's so-called "films."

MaryJ, San Francisco, USA

What a life-what a bloke.A true legend who did it all.If i could cram a millionth of what he achieved i would die a very happy man.
RIP

martin, darlington, england

My niece who was 23 at the time, saw Paul Newman come into Long Beach Airport in Calif, when he was in his early sixties. She gushed when she described that he wore tan pants, a dark brown leather jacket and great sun glasses. She thought he was the most handsome man she had ever seen. We love yo

Mary , Placentia, USA

The movie industry has lost a legend.

Paul was a screen icon with a rare talent for humility and a quiet dedication to his craft, while pursuing humanitarian interests, away from Hollywood's bright lights. He set an example for other actors to follow, and will remain truly special.

Nathalie Hachet, Manchester, UK

Sooo long, man
Thanks for all
Be - in spirit - with us,
un admirateur-cinéfil !

lolo, paris,

I feel so sorrow.Newman is one figure who would be forgotten in further.I have read lots of passages about him today.But I still can not help my tear.Bless you,Newman. Have a good meeting with your son in heaven.I love you for ever.

Manning, Beijing, China

Original Sexiest Man Alive is now the Sexiest Man Who Had Ever Lived. He always was and always will be my favorite actor. What a generous heart and spirit he had. He was one of a kind and there will never be another like him. May he rest in peace with his son again at last.

Elise, Wyomissing, USA

Not only did you talk the talk, you walked the walk.
You were a true star as an actor and charitable human being. the like of which is all too rare.
Thank you for the pleasure you bought us over the years.
over and out.

Alex Lee, Carshalton, UK

Great moments from great films- all of them, can watch the card game on the train, with Robert Shaw in The Sting, over and over again..

Peter, Conwy, Wales

It is a very sad day to hear that great personality as Paul Newman was has died.Unfortunately,the world that we leave
lacks persons like him.We wish a good a nd safe voyage.


Solon Anneliese Lechonitis

Solon Lechonitis, Athens, Greece

The whole world will miss you Mr. Newman. You gave the world so many different ways to experience your acting skills.

You kept your great smile, and lovely blue eyes, up to the end.

You were still a very handsome man even though you were in your 80's.

I wish you well in the spirit world!

Colleen Walsh, Hickory Creek, TX, USA

When I was a little girl I had a crush on Paul Newman; it was the 80's and his picture hung on my locker wall. Paul Newman once said that his epitaph would read: "here lies Paul Newman who died a failure because his blue eyes turned brown". Failure - never! Thank you Paul - and rest in peace.

Samantha Jameson , Toronto, Canada

Lovely man, great actor and a hell of a liberal!

jen hutchin, phoenix, usa

yes another great person lost,but he leaves os lots of gerat memories.

willy, montreal, canada

He was a real gentleman. He's been my Mum's favourite actor all her life, and she passed on that love to me.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends at this very sad time.

Ruth K Minton, Pershore, UK

What a life to celebrate.

Barb, Charlotte, USA

Loved him!
Such a loss.

Tim, Wrexham, Wrexham

I'm sorry to hear this.

Paul Newman was a gentleman, a family man and also a wonderful actor, he will be sadly missed.

May he rest in peace.

Eleanor, Hants, UK

Paul Newman was a real "Cool Hand". A humanitarian who thought that he , himself, was lucky. His acting was superb in every way, I loved COOL HAND LUKE and HUD. BUTCH CASSIDY and the STING.. the COLOUR OF MONEY was great, There has been few, in recent years who could come close to his acting ability

Phill Wilkes, birmingham, ENGLAND

He was the actor I most admired and respected. He gave exceptional performances in every film he acted be it 'the prize' or 'the sting'.
A real legend of an actor and an exceptional humanist
the like of him we would probably never see. May his soul rest in peace. It is such a great loss

norman, LONDON,

The world is a dimmer place. A shining star has passed. So sorry and sad. Only memories now.

Amita, CA, USA

Great , great actor and in everyway a great human being . A cut above his profession . Somehow things are that bit smaller for him not being here.

ian, Belfast,

Very sad indeed...a great man...a great life!

peter, london, england

Another legend leaves us. A great actor and a very private family man.Should have received an oscar for cool hand luke and Hud. He will be a hugely missed.Felt as though I knew him. A very sad day.

may douglas, lyme regis, Uk

The most beautiful blue eyes in Hollywood are closed...R.I.P.

Ana , Skopje, Macedonia

I am not often so...but today I must sat that I'm left speechless by this sad event. A giant in the industry in many ways, whether it be the movie screen, television, Broadway, auto racing and salad dressing. Paul Newman to me will always WIN EVERY VERDICT, hands down. My sympathy to the family.

stuart, malden, united states

A truly brilliant actor and hugely underrated in this country. When you consider he was as big a star as they come in the 60's whilst playing such morally ambiguous roles as Fast Eddie , Cool Hand Luke and, perhaps best of all, Hud he was without doubt one of the finest actors Hollywood has produced

Warren , London, England

R.I.P Paul Newman. What a professional, what a Man.

leeon, huddersfield, England

The passing of a true gentleman. Adios.

haralambos, Johannesburg,

God Bless you Paul Newman, for starting those "Hole in the Wall" Camps, several of which I''ve volunteered at, including one next week in Ireland.

You served your country, loved your family, respected others, never took yourself too seriously. You've helped more children than anyone

Bill mahoney, Guilderland, NY, USA
