Been a fan of this movie for a long time. Had the VHS version and have it now taped on my satellite DVR. My favorite line is where Luke tells George Kennedy's character "Sometime nothing is a real cool hand."
Just rewatched Cool Hand Luke starring Paul Newman again last night for the 5th time after finally buying the DVD . This movie came out in 1967 which , based on the post about age , is older than 95% on the folks on here. This is a good guy movie , sorry girls , although you may find Newman attractive. There are no spectacular car wrecks , shootings or explosions and the "F" word is not used in every sentence. Characters are actually developed and there is a followable plot. Newman is a prisoner of a state work farm in the south and has that rebel spirit to not conform . One of my all time favorite movie lines ever is delivered by Strother Martin "What we have here is failure to communicate". One of my all time favorite scenes
(eating the eggs) is in this movie also. Give it a try and let me know what you think.
Life is a grindstone . Whether it grinds us down or polishes us up , depends on what we are made of .
