"Lady L" | Photograph of Paul Newman and Sophia Loren on Set

A large framed photograph of Paul Newman and Sophia Loren from their iconic racy romantic comedy.

During an interview with the Los Angeles Times in May, 2011, Sophia Loren commented on her time working with Newman on Lady L (1965): “Paul Newman was a very nice person, but shy and very much in love with his wife [Joanne Woodward], who was very pregnant and always on the set. I was always amazed that each time I looked at him, I would say to myself, ‘My God, I’m working with Paul Newman. God, look at his eyes, look at his mouth. He is so handsome.’ I don’t know when he was looking at me what he thought, but anyway, I was absolutely amazed.”
