that this was too near Brando's zenith. The common (mistaken) perception was that they were both "method" actors. Hollywood is reluctant to embrace wholesale change and the searing memories of Streetcar and Waterfront were too close for them to give Newman an oscar for this. In fact, Newman was nominated for Hud, The Hustler, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and Cool Hand Luke in the era when Brando was annointed "the method movie actor". The only oscar he won was after Brando's star had faded when he played Eddie Feltson again in The Color of Money, which seemed most like the Academy trying to fix an oversight.I am not sure I agree with the thesis, but it certainly bears some thought.
