About this listen

 An intimate exploration of one of cinema's greatest partnerships, from their first meeting on "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" through Newman's death in 2008. The episode reveals how their instant chemistry created movie magic in two classic films, while their off-screen friendship became legendary for elaborate pranks, shared political activism, and genuine mutual respect. It examines how both men represented a new masculine ideal in 1970s Hollywood, their common interests in racing and liberal politics, and how they supported each other through personal tragedies. The story demonstrates how authentic friendship can transcend celebrity culture and create lasting artistic collaboration.
