Cool Hand Luke
Paul Newman stars as a laid back Southern man who is sentenced to two years in a rural Florida prison in the 50’s, but refuses to conform. A sure-footed, entertaining chain-gang yarn with a famously repulsive egg-eating contest. Based on the novel by Donn Pearce, which reflects the anti-establishment sentiment of the Vietnam War era.
