TCM announces Paul Newman tribute
As it has always done, Turner Classic Movies has acted quickly to pay tribute to a film legend. A Paul Newman day is set for Sunday, Oct. 12, with the following lineup:
6:00 AM - The Rack
8:00 AM - Until They Sail
10:00 AM - Torn Curtain
12:15 PM - Exodus
3:45 PM - Sweet Bird of Youth
6:00 PM - Hud
8:00 PM - Somebody Up There Likes Me
10:00 PM - Cool Hand Luke
12:15 AM - Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
2:15 AM - Rachel, Rachel
4:00 AM - The Outrage
Darn. The Hustler isn’t on the list. Guess I’ll have to head for Netflix for that one. But I’ll be very glad to catch up to Hud, Somebody Up There Likes Me, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, and Rachel, Rachel - that one was directed by Newman.
Any thoughts on this roster?

I apologize in advance that this has nothing to do with Paul Newman. I read this blog post today about the upcoming film Blindness. http://www.daytondailynews.com/o/content/shared-gen/blogs/dayton/celebrityworship/entries/2008/10/01/blindplanprotestofjulianne.html The headline for this post is “Blind plan protest of Julianne Moore movie” and I was curious what your thoughts are on this especially since you commented on the similar treatment of “Tropic Thunder” and “Wall-E” with their alleged discriminatory messages. Thanks!
