Veteran actor Gene Hackman is commenting on last weekend’s passing of screen legend and philanthropist Paul Newman . The actor, who starred with Newman in the 1998 big screen thriller ‘Twilight,’ tells ET, “Everything about Paul Newman was real. His acting was so real it hurt. And his caring about the world was so real it helped ... it helped like few people ever help. He lived and he acted like he drove ... a lot of passion, no false moves, taking chances but always under control. No wonder the whole world takes this so personally.” (link)
