Check our Road to Perdition....he didnt play a large part but still  great movie.  

I remember going to watch Road to Perdition at the cinema when it came out. Newman played the big boss with Daniel Craig (not yet James Bond) as his fucked up son and was surprised how good Tom Hanks was as a gangster. As he always played the happy go lucky roles back then.

Somebody Up There Likes Me is a 1956 American drama film directed by Robert Wise and starring Paul Newman and Pier Angeli, based on the life of middleweight boxing legend Rocky Graziano.  Very similar script 

What an excellent film that was.  I remember watching it when I was a young lad. I was always a fan of Paul Newman. I’ve seen the film a few times now.

I've watched the first couple of episodes. I've always liked Sylvester Stallone, and I like gangster movies. Good to hear it's being shown in los.

I’m not sure if it’s being shown in LOS as I’m in the UK

Currently watching the Tulsa King. The first tv series Sylvester Stallone as done for television. 

New York mafia capo Dwight "The General" Manfredi, is released from prison after 25 years and exiled by his boss to set up shop in Tulsa, Oklahoma; realizing that his mob family may not have his best interests in mind, Dwight slowly builds a crew

To stop trying to stop smoking 

After the Liverpool v City game the other week I headed back to Manchester to watch the fittest lass to come out of Australia.

Gutted to hear the news of the passing of May who was found dead in her apartment last week (no details). 

I knew her from her Horny Bar days many years ago and later on the Fantasy Lounge. 

Always fun to be with, a lovely personality and was zero drama, one of the very best. 

R. I. P. Sweetheart 

Rest in Peace May.

I remember her her briefly from 2012 in Horny Bar Soi 6

Goy from Calypso Cabaret as now turned 40

Just back from watching the new Elvis film at the Cinema (for me 100 times better than watching on a TV), heard a lot of good reports on it so went to find out for myself, it was worth paying the £9.50 imho. 

Also more enjoyable sat in a very comfortable armchair (with recline) with a pint of Camden Helles and a glass of Rioja. 

Just watched it this aft and Tom Hanks, brilliant as per. But I can’t think I’ve ever saw him play a bad guy before. Road to Perdition maybe.

Tom Parker was no more a Colonel than the guy who makes chicken, so finger licking good.

I think seeing the Stones and Dylan is money well spent mate. 

Seen Bob Dylan a long time ago in the summer of 85 at Newcastle football ground. Support acts were good too Carlos Santana and Lindisfarne .
