Steve McQueen and Paul Newman are two of the most iconic actors of the '60s and '70s, but they famously didn't get along and it got totally out of hand when they starred in a $203 million movie together. Newman was one of the most in-demand actors of the era, and few actors have been nominated so many times in a row without winning. The actor was nominated for 10 Academy Awards and finally won his eighth nomination for his performance in The Color of Money. In stark contrast to Newman, McQueen was considered Hollywood's "King of Cool" but never earned the same acclaim.
