In this video, we delve deep into the life of Paul Newman, going beyond the public persona to explore the man behind the blue eyes. We start by discussing the recently discovered letters Newman wrote to his wife, Joanne Woodward. These letters, found by their daughter Melissa Newman, reveal a side of their relationship that has rarely been seen by the public. From sweet words of admiration to more "naughty" expressions, these letters offer an intimate look into their complex relationship.

We also discuss Newman's feelings of guilt, particularly concerning his first marriage to Jackie Witte and the overlap between that relationship and his subsequent marriage to Woodward. Drawing from a revealing biography and Newman's own words, we explore how this guilt affected him throughout his life.

Adding another layer to the story, we discuss a recently published posthumous memoir that Newman initiated but later abandoned. Edited by David Rosenthal and based on interviews with Newman and those close to him, the memoir provides a fresh perspective on Newman's life, revealing a man filled with inner turmoil and self-doubt.

Finally, we delve into a documentary that reveals Newman's darker side, including his struggles with alcoholism and fidelity. Despite these challenges, Newman and Woodward's relationship endured for over 50 years, until Newman's death from lung cancer in 2008 at the age of 83.

This video aims to provide a comprehensive look at Paul Newman, not just as a Hollywood icon but as a deeply flawed yet fundamentally decent man. We explore the complexities of his relationship with Woodward, his feelings of guilt, and the darker aspects of his personality, all of which contribute to a legacy that is both fascinating and deeply human.
