The Last Movie Stars

Essentially hagiography--it treats every movie they ever did as if it were a minor masterpiece. It purports to be a "warts and all" portrait of the two, with "nothing off limits"...well, Newman's bisexuality was clearly off limits--not a whisper about it. even though it was not exactly a secret. I mean, if I know personally at least two guys that were propositioned by him over the years, and Gore Vidal hints at it in his memoirs, it weren't no secret. Still, a reasonably interesting overview.

Em honra do centenário de Paul Newman, meu companheirinho de aniversário no 26 de janeiro. Não sei se mostrar a paixão do Ethan Hawke pelo objeto do trabalho foi uma boa ideia, sem isso seria um doc mais tradicional, mas também seria menos cansativo. Plus: Voto com a pessoa que disse que agora precisam fazer um desses sobre o Cassavetes e a Rowlands. Knaben.

6½ hours is just waaaay too much. Also, thanks for completely ruining the endings of "The Hustler" and "The Color of Money". Do they want no one to see those movies? I guess not...
