Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Newman developed a liking for car racing when he starred in which of these movies?

Answer: Winning

"Winning" co-starred Robert Wagner.

2. In "The Rack", Newman is charged with what crime?

Answer: Collaboration

He's charged with collaborating with the enemy while a prisoner during wartime. Good movie early in his career with a fine cast: Walter Pidgeon, Edmond O'Brien, Wendell Corey & Anne Francis.

3. "Quintet" is set in what type of climate?

Answer: Arctic wasteland

Arguably Newman's worst movie, it bombed big time - with good reason.

4. Newman starred in "The Left Handed Gun". To what famous outlaw did the title refer?

Answer: Billy the Kid

Early in his career. Not memorable.

5. Newman played which two characters?

Answer: Buffalo Bill, Judge Roy Bean

He starred in one movie as Bill and in another as Bean. Neither was particularly good; neither did well.

6. Joan Collins appeared in which of these Paul Newman movies?

Answer: Rally 'Round The Flag, Boys

"Flag" was a comedy early in his career. Joanne Woodward also co-starred. "Chalice" was his debut movie. "Terrace" included Joanne Woodward in the cast. "Frigg" was a light comedy.

7. Barbara Rush co-starred with Newman in "The Young Philadelphians". In which other Newman movie did she appear?

Answer: Hombre

In "Philadelphians" ( a good movie), she plays the romantic interest. In "Hombre" (also enjoyable) she plays a victim that Newman tries to rescue. (For a while, his movies all seemed to start with "H".)

8. Newman has worked with many fine supporting actors. In which movie did he work with Wilford Brimley?

Answer: Absence of Malice

Brimley was in "Malice". Jack Warden was in "Verdict". Harold Gould was in "Sting". Strother Martin was in "Butch". All good actors; all good movies.

9. Newman co-starred with James Garner in which of these movies?

Answer: Twilight

Newman stars in what is probably best-described as a detective movie. The cast includes Garner, Gene Hackman and Susan Sarandon. It didn't do that well, but it's not bad.

Answer: Baseball

Pool figured prominently in "Hustler" (and in "Color of Money"). Boxing was key in "Somebody Up There Likes Me". "Slap Shot" featured Newman as a hockey coach.
