The library's DVD collection includes a variety of classic and contemporary films starring the late, great Paul Newman. On the off chance that you have missed the actor's once popular/now classic films, we highly recommend Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1958), The Hustler (1961), Cool Hand Luke (1967), Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid (1969), and of course, The Sting (1973).
