In this intimate six-part docuseries, actor/director Ethan Hawke explores the love story and enduring legacy of Hollywood legends Joanne Woodward and Paul Newman.

Asked by some associated to Hollywood power couple Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward to make a documentary film on them, Ethan Hawke, in the process of his research, discovers that Newman had previously asked screenwriting friend Stewart Stern to conduct a series of interviews in preparation to write Newman's memoirs, Stern having conducted upwards of one hundred such interviews. While Newman ultimately destroyed the audio recordings of those interviews for whatever reason, Hawke discovers that Stern had those recordings transcribed. Hawke thus restructures the project to have many of his actor friends read those transcribed interviews, thus the words straight out of not only Newman and Woodward's mouth but also that of their many friends, family and colleagues, all set against archive footage associated to the couple, interspersed with interviews by Hawke of those actor friends about their perspective of the Newman/Woodward story.—Huggo
