Theatrical Trailer
Amazon.com essential video:
Paul Newman gives one of the defining performances of his career, and cemented his place as a beautiful-rebel screen icon playing the stubbornly tough and independent title character in Cool Hand Luke. And before he became familiar as a sidekick in 1970s disaster movies (Earthquake and the Airport movies), George Kennedy won an Oscar for playing Dragline, the brutal chain-gang boss who tries to beat loner Luke's cool out of him. It's a classic rebel-against-the-repressive-institution story in the line of One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest or The Shawshank Redemption. Certain moments have become classics--particularly the hardboiled egg-eating contest, and the immortal line (drooled by Strother Martin, as a sadistic redneck prison officer), "What we have here is a failure to communicate." And don't forget, Luke is also the source of the oft-quoted driving ditty, "I don't care if it rains or freezes, long as I have my plastic Jesus, right here on the dashboard of my car..." He is cool, all right. The digital video disc is in anamorphic widescreen and digital stereo. --Jim Emerson

What can I say about "Cool Hand Luke" except that it is one of the most entertaining & memorable movies ever made, as well as one of Paul Newman's best acting performances. This movie is full of great lines & great scenes & is a must see for any Paul Newman and/or movie fan. "Cool Hand Luke" belongs in every movie buff's collection & is a movie you will want to watch over & over again. *****+++!!!

Alright, I've noticed all the reviews have been of the film and a summary. I'm sure if you're looking to purchase this film, you've already seen it. I'm going to go on about this particular conversion of the film.
The visuals for this film wasn't upgraded very much from the DVD release (I also own). Image quality is not that much better than the DVD. The audio is much crisper. They separate the channels really well, however, I've noticed that it isn't in a true 5.1 Surround sound. ... Read More

its a great movie would highly reccomend it but the reason i give it 4 stars and not 5 is because the ending is very sad.

One of the best movies ever made. Special meaning since Paul Newman died this year.
