I was going to nominate The Verdict as well. He just added, or brought more to the Newman character with his presence and role.
Others I've seen:
From Here to Eternity
12 Angry Men
Brian's Song
Shampoo
All the President's Men
Being There
And Justice for All
Guilty as Sin
While You Were Sleeping -

I saw him late last night in 'Raid on Entebbe', a well-made TV movie about Israelis taken hostage by Palestinians in 1976. I started reminiscing about Warden after that. A few great roles and a thousand really good ones for him; I'm a huge fan. He made every movie that he was in better. He was an imposing masculine force on the screen, and he will be missed. RIP.

SHAMPOO was on TCM last night; I forgot how good he was. But I think my favorite Jack Warden role will always be THE VERDICT. He just seemed so believable in that role, it wasn't like acting. Very surprised he wasn't nominated.
