Tom Cruise Honors Paul Newman In Essay
October 2nd, 2008
Tom Cruise has written a personal essay about his friend, the late Paul Newman, to be published this Friday in People magazine.
“He was bigger than life to me,” Tom writes about his ‘The Color of Money’ co-star who lost his battle with cancer last Friday (September 26). “But he always had a way of putting us all at ease.
“He called me ‘Cruiser’ or sometimes ‘Kid’. We would grab time to hang out whenever we could find it.”
Cruise concludes his essay saying, “His life will forever inspire me. The world has lost an icon; I have lost an idol.”

it’s hard not to admire Paul Newman for putting his money to work in such productive ways, such as his Newman’s Own line–high quality stuff and the proceeds go to good causes… very smart.

Paul Newman was an excellent actor. Years ago when he made a cowboy movie, my husband saw it when he was on a trip. He came home telling me about this outstanding actor. He said, " I think his name was Paul Newman". Several years later I was priviledged to attend one of Paul Newman's films. My husband was completely right in his assessment of Paul Newman's great ability as an actor. It was 1956 when this conversation occured with my husband and myself.
Paul Newman was always the very best in any movie he starred.
My condolences to his wife and family for thier loss.
