	Cool Hand Luke (1967)
		Cool Hand Luke (1967) is the moving character study of a non-conformist, anti-hero loner who bullheadedly resists authority and the Establishment.
		Luke is detached toward police when they arrive at the scene and arrest him for social defiance - under a streetlight's glare, he laughs at them with a big grin.
		Luke is placed in an isolated environment with strict rules, guards, and regimentation and his fiercely individualistic spirit immediately clashes.

	Cool Hand Luke - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cool Hand Luke is a 1967 American film starring Paul Newman and directed by Stuart Rosenberg.
		Luke is sent to the prison camp for cutting the heads off parking meters one drunken night, and when asked what kind of thing that is for a man to do, his explanation is "Small town, not much to do in the evenin'.
		The screenplay was adapted by Donn Pearce and Frank Pierson from the novel by Pearce.

	BrothersJudd.com - Review of Donn Pearce's Cool Hand Luke
		Cool Hand Luke is narrated by Sailor, much of it as he overhears it from Clarence "Dragline" Slidell, as the road crew is resting in a churchyard, a yard which they consider "sacred ground" because it is where Dragline and Luke were finally captured..
		Luke responds to this unjust punishment by taking off as fast as he can (on the 4th of July, naturally) and the remainder of the novel details his series of escapes and subtle and large defiances of authority.
		Luke escapes one last time, and though it is the last, even after he's gone, his life, his defiance of authority, and his passion for freedom serve as the examples that the men aspire towards.

	Cool Hand Luke
		Luke's mother's name is Arletta (Our Lady), and when he learns about her death, he sings about the Virgin Mary sitting on a abalone shell.
		Luke is gunned down by the spiritually blind "man with no eyes," a guard who wears reflective sunglasses throughout the film.
		Luke, like Jesus in the wilderness, faces temptation when the prisoners are watching the attractive woman wash her car.

	Cool Hand Luke
		He earns his "Cool Hand" nickname by raising the other players in a poker game until they all fold, even though he has a worthless hand--after which he calmly remarks that "Nothing can be a real cool hand." Luke escapes twice, but is recaptured and punished by prison authorities.
		Luke denies to Dragline that the escape was planned, remarking that he "never planned anything in his life." Hunted down and surrounded by prison officers, Luke, at Dragline's urging, finally surrenders, only to be shot by the officers while in the act of giving up.
		The scene toward Luke's climax in which Luke calls upon God points out another feature sometimes found in movies in which the rebel is ultimately crushed: the unanswered plea for rescue and the inability of the rebel to escape from the life previously lived and the mistakes earlier made.

		Luke is the hero of the prison population for his non-conformative style.
		Luke is the anti-establishment hero that so many of our modern actors try to portray but are left not even fit to polish Newan's dusty prison boots.
		The sheer determination of Luke not to conform is inspirational, although the feeling that his fate could have been so different is never allowed to slip too far from your mind.

		Cool Hand Luke contains many cinematic achievements and by today’s standards, it is marked as an American classic.
		As previously stated, many films have leaned on the broad shoulders of Cool Hand Luke, ranging from the adventurous Papillion (the numerous escape attempts and failures) to the broad, episodic Life (Eddie Murphy uses Paul Newman’s boxing match as a major influence).
		Luke is sent to rehabilitation in a small prison facility where he will spend the next two years laboring in the smoldering heat digging ditches, hatching weeds, and tarring the dusty roads.

	Cool Hand Luke - Movie Review and Sounds
		We learn that Luke is a war hero with a silver star, a bronze star, and a couple of purple hearts and that he made sergeant in the army but came out a buck private.
		It seems as if all of Luke's problems are caused by him trying to get even for some wrong that the system, whatever system he happens to be in at the time, perpetrated on him.
		Luke told him that sometimes nothing could be a cool hand.

		Luke alludes to a grudge with the city, but by the smirk on his face you get the feeling he did it just for the fun of it.
		Luke is definitely an outsider, playing by the rules of both the guards and the prisoners, but refusing to kiss up to either group.
		What's great about COOL HAND LUKE is that the only thing that's aged about the picture is the actors in real life.

		Second, important to Luke but missed by many of the others, was that they confused and befuddled the guards.
		When Luke's mother dies, the warden has Luke put in 'the box' just in case he was thinking of running.
		Luke gets even more rebellious and tries to escape and the warden decides he must 'break' Luke or risk loosing control of the entire prison population.

	eBay - VHS: Cool Hand Luke (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Luke is a sullen and laconic young man whose cool defiance of the sadistic warden and bullying inmates earns him the title "Cool Hand Luke." But as the prisoners' respect for Luke grows into hero worship, he finds that he must risk everything in order to live up to their expectations.
		Filled with dozens of memorable scenes (Luke eating 50 eggs) and quotable lines ("What we have here is a failure to communicate."), COOL HAND LUKE is a testament to excellent screenwriting (Donn Pearce and Frank Pierson) and Newman's charm and skill as an actor.
		Cool Hand Luke, starring Paul Newman as the mysterious Luke, carries this tale of a strange, quiet man as he nihilistically runs life through freedom, jail, freedom, jail, and more of each.

		Ultimately, Luke's affable non-conformity gets the best of him after several failed escape attempts, but he is ingrained into the memory of his fellow prisoners (and guards, for that matter).
		Luke seems to have wandered aimlessly after winning several medals in WWII, and in the beginning of the film he's arrested for "maliciously destroying municipal property" - using a pipe cutter to cut the heads off of parking meters.
		Luke is insolent and rebellious and talks back to the Bosses in a way the other prisoners wouldn't dare.
