Paul Newman

I've been meaning to do a Paul Newman post for a while, and since a friend and I just watched Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, now seems as good a time as any. After seeing his beautiful sad face in that wonderful Tennessee Williams movie, I'm particularly caught up in Paul Newman fever. So here he is, the most beautiful man in the world (seriously, science has already proven it):

With the lovely Elizabeth Taylor in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof

Here we have young and sexy. 

With good friend and fellow beauty, Robert Redford

Older, wiser, and sexy.

With wife Joanne Woodward, talented actress and luckiest woman in the world-- 

the "steak" he had at home.

Ah, whenever I watch Paul Newman movies, I just want to marry him.

Also, you know he's done some nice stuff: great actor, married to the same woman for 50 years, supporting civil rights and gay rights, and of course Newman's Own. But above all, those EYES!

Mick Jagger and Jerry Hall

Some images I found:

Great flapper dress! 

I think this is a paparazzi shot, but it looks so fabulously stylized.

I've been obsessed with glam rock lately. This is mostly due to my discovery of Marc Bolan and T. Rex.

I'd been aware of Marc Bolan before mostly through his association with David Bowie, but I've started listening to his music and I just love it. He has an interesting and enticingly mellow voice.

Poor dear died in a car crash when he was only 29 years old.

What's interesting is that my parents (who were teenagers when he was most popular) have no idea who he is. I guess he wasn't as big in the US. (Neither of them were really into glam rock either.)

Stones 50

I like this one, from the new book.

Supernatural is a pretty great show. Its mix of classic rock, beautiful men, supernatural action, and comedy is irresistible. The subject matter and humor remind me a bit of Buffy (one of my favorite shows). I also like the conceptual homage to On the Road: Sam and Dean traveling across the country like Kerouac's Sal and Dean. In a very cool vintage Chevy Impala nonetheless.

Also, nothing can break your heart like this guy's sad face:

Jared Padalecki. For those who remember his sweetness from Gilmore Girls, his sensitive (most of the time) Sam Winchester is just wonderful. Note the "puppy dog eyes."

This show always has me swooning. It's just so hard to be a Winchester! They're so pretty, but they have to deal with so much...

Haha, I'm a sucker for troubled heros.

Jerry Hall, Patti Hansen, and Jo Wood

I'm not sure, but given the years these women were with their respective Stones, I would guess this dates around late 70s to early 80s. Anyway, I think it's kind of fantastic. It looks like they're backstage.

Recording Some Girls in Paris. Very cool, shadowy photos.
