Review of Somebody Up There Likes Me (2013) by Joel A — 07 Mar 2013
The film more or less a Shoe In for James Dean straight after Giant but as we all know his life was tragically cut short. Even his stunning partner Pier was in this film also.
Thankfully they didn't replace Dean with any hack they got a little unknown talented called Paul Newman at the time.
The story of a trouble maker, somewhat drifter turning Pro Boxer to change his self restricting lifestyle. Although a little too handsome for a street thug Newman was he delivered with an intense & emotionally charged performance.
This is a good a film & although a little patchy in parts it's a incredible debut for Paul Newman.
