This is symbolized greatly in `Cool Hand Luke’. We can identify with Luke because his crime is venial and his concerns over the great questions of life are ours. It is because of this and his persuasive charm that the other prisoners (played remarkably well by Kennedy and a host of others to include Wayne Rogers, Ralph Waite, Dennis Hopper and one of the actors who played a crewmember on `Alien’) live vicariously through him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFilled with memorable scenes (the boxing match, 50 eggs, the fealty of his fellow prisoners who help him finish his food after his stomach is shrunk in solitary confinement, `shakin’ it here boss’, the sneezing dogs, and of course the carwash part) and outstanding character development (created by what is said and what is not said, i.e. the visiting brother), one of screen history’s most repeated lines and the great acting of Newman, this movie deserves to be called a classic. Released the same year as `Bonnie and Clyde’, it makes one long for the days when you needed a real script to make a movie.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FilmClassicsonDVD","offers":[{"title":"GET DVD","offer_id":51458190049567,"sku":"cohan-1","price":12.94,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"DOWNLOAD","offer_id":51458190082335,"sku":"cohan-2","price":10.94,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/0788\/5087\/files\/f_daa6b60a-41fa-491c-b10f-0ccc67820407.jpg?v=1765365564","url":"https:\/\/filmclassicsondvd.com\/products\/cool-hand-luke","provider":"FilmClassicsonDVD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
