Paul Newman has never been so cool as he was in 'Harper' playing the no-nonsense Private Investigator who is asked by the glamourous and acidic Lauren Bacall to investigate her husband's disappearance. With the investigation however he becomes entangled by some very unsavoury people, and begins to realise that the family of the missing man are not quite what they seem.
Newman is just the epitome of cool, chewing his gum, blue eyes sparkling with danger and sarcastic drawl escaping his lips.
The film also has a brilliant cast, not just with Newman but with Julie Harris, Janet Leigh and Shelley Winters all finding their way into Harper's life at one stage or another.
A film to watch that just shows how versatile and excellent Newman can be.
