The End of an Era…

Paul Newman 1925 - 2008
RIP

From the Washington Post article:

“…They had a famously durable marriage. Newman spoke about their relationship by noting how they decided to act in the comedy A New Kind of Love (1963).

“He told Time magazine: “Joanne read it and said, ‘Hey this could be fun to do together. Read it.’ And I read it and said, ‘Joanne, it’s just a bunch of one-liners.’

“And she said, ‘You [expletive], I’ve been carting your children around, taking care of them, taking care of you and your house.’ And I said, ‘That is what I said. It’s a terrific script. I can’t think of anything else I’d rather do.’ This is what is known as a reciprocal trade agreement.…”
