FROM THE LINER NOTESWith a career approaching nearly six decades, Paul Newman has shown himself to be one of Hollywood's most enduring superstars. Now available on DVD are 7 of this Hollywood living legend's films in The Paul Newman Collection. Bonuses include new and vintage featurettes.HARPER (1966). Harper's the name. Mystery's the game. In his first detective movie, Newman cracks a LA-LA-Land murder case and along the way, revitalizes the genre. Lauren Bacall co-stars. Also available separately. SOMEBODY UP THERE LIKES ME (1956). His breakthrough film! Newman slugs his way onto the Hollywood map in the tale of boxing champ Rocky Graziano. Robert Wise directs. Recipient of 2 Academy Awards®: Best B&W Cinematography and Art Direction/Set Decoration. Only available in the collection. THE LEFT HANDED GUN (1958). Teenaged desperado: Newman portrays Billy the Kid in this multilayered look at the Western legend. Arthur Penn (Bonnie and Clyde) makes his directorial debut. Only available in the collection. THE YOUNG PHILADELPHIANS (1959). Newman plays a coolly ambitious lawyer climbing the ranks of the town elite - and caught up in a sensational murder trial. The supporting cast is equally sensational: Alexis Smith, Brian Keith, Robert Vaughn and more. Only available in the collection. POCKET MONEY (1972). Two hard-luck modern cowboys may know cattle, but they sure can't recognize a bum steer. Newman teams with Lee Marvin and Cool Hand Luke's director in a sly, offbeat comedy. Only available in the collection. THE MACKINTOSH MAN (1973). The code word for suspense! John Huston directs as Newman plays a covert agent unraveling a spy web that reaches into England's Parliament. James Mason co-stars. Only available in the collection. THE DROWNING POOL (1975). Intrigue is as thick as gumbo when Harper tails an extortionist in New Orleans. With Joanne Woodward, Melanie Griffith. Directed by Stuart Rosenberg (Cool Hand Luke).
