Paul Newman died, and for people like me who are ridiculously nostalgic, this is incredibly sad. Especially with movies, some part of my brain isn't practical and I just imagine everyone is still trundling along, not interested in making pictures, but alive and vital. So while I always watch the annual Academy Awards Montage of Dead People, I am often taken aback with the news that some people are no longer With Us.
So it was somewhat heartbreaking, in spite of knowing the score with Newman, to hear of his death, and in a moment when I am feeling particularly hamstrung and particularly ineffectual, I was especially moved by Dahlia Lithwick's obituary of the actor that discusses just how much he contributed (and continues to contribute) to so many people, over so long in so many ways.
