Midday Movie Classics: Cool Hand Luke (PG)

Do you love talking about movies? Are you a fan of movies from the ‘50s, ‘60s, ‘70s, and ‘80s? This is where you belong. Movie trivia, lemonade, coffee and popcorn served.

When petty criminal Luke Jackson (Paul Newman) is sentenced to two years in a Florida prison farm, he doesn’t play by the rules of either the sadistic warden (Strother Martin) or the yard’s resident heavy, Dragline (George Kennedy), who ends up admiring the new guy’s unbreakable will. Lukes’ bravado, even in the face of repeated stints in the prison’s dreaded solitary confinement cell, “the box,” make him a rebel hero to his fellow convicts and a thorn in the side of the prison officers. 2h 6m.

This movie is intended for adults. It is rated PG. Registration is not required. This program is sponsored by Garlisch Automotive Services.
