"What we've got here is... failure to communicate." His crime: nonconformity. His sentence: the chain gang. Paul Newman plays one of his best-loved roles as
Cool Hand Luke, the loner who won't - or can't - bend to the arbitrary rules of his captivity. A cast of fine character actors, including George Kennedy in his Oscar-winning role of Dragline and the indelible Jo Van Fleet as Luke's mother, give Newman solid support. And Strother Martin is the Captain who taunts Luke with the now-legendary line, "What we've got here is... failure to communicate". No failure here. With rich humor and vibrant storytelling power,
Cool Hand Luke succeeds resoundingly.
