Best Newman Performance?

2 movies..one when he was younger called Cat on a Hot Tin Roof..he was raw and his performance was off the charts intense as a riled up young man and his performance opposite of Elizabeth Taylor(a superstar at that time) would bode well for the future.
when he was a bit older(69) a movie called Nobody's Fool..outstanding performance of an almost-elderly and unfulfilled man looking to make things right.

For me, his best ever performance was in The Verdict.

I'd pick Cool Hand Luke out of the bunch offered, but probably Cat on a Hot Tin Roof or The Verdict overall.

Stripping under the name Malcolm Sex, I pleased the ladies by any means necessary.

I have no idea (it's probably The Verdict), but my
favorite
of his is probably Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.

The Verdict, out of those three it's probably Cool Hand Luke. He was great in The Hustler but I think was uneven, he had some brilliant moments, but overall it wasn't all outstanding.

Hud
His acting seems more natural. He completely transformed himself into the character.
Everybody did good job of acting. If I had to pick someone for The Hustler. It would be George C Scott.

For some reason, Newman reminded me of Marlon Brandon in this.
