Actor, director, racing driver and philanthropist Paul Newman is the first of Sky Arts' subjects in its new series 'Discovering Film', which starts tonight.
To many of Paul Newman's film fans, his career on screen was plenty. With his beautiful face, pale blue eyes and intense style, he managed to be both man's man ('Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid', 'The Sting') and woman's fantasy ('Cat on a Hot Tin Roof', 'The Long, Hot Summer').
Paul Newman appeared in more than 80 films in his long career

Discovering Film: Paul Newman is on Sky Arts tonight at 8pm.
