For almost half a century, Paul Newman epitomized the Hollywood Superstar. His roles in The Long Hot Summer, Hud, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Cool Hand Luke and The Hustler depicted him as the King of Cool, but, in fact, he disdained the spotlight. In 1982, he established a company that has donated over $250 million to numerous organizations, including one he established for children with serious medical conditions. We'll watch interviews with Newman and take a look behind the scenes at several of his most famous films and learn why he deserves his place in the pantheon of movie stars and philanthropists.
