I've seen "Our Town" countless times with many excellent actors filling the role of stage manager/narrator. Paul Newman's performance easily tops them all. Although the TV version of Thornton Wilder's famous play lacks the spatial dimensions that are afforded by a stage, the story here is told in segments that are easily accommodated on a TV screen. This is Newman's "Our Town" to a degree that exceeds every other performance of the play that I've ever seen. And, since this is among the best acting jobs that Newman has ever done in his long career, that's just fine. I saw it with my wife and adult daughter (who also loved it) and commented that Newman is still a "mighty good-looking" guy.
