    Barely pass. "Prison" has obvious reference to this film, especially copied the bridge section where the prisoners encouraged to build the road. In addition to building the road, this film also has an egg-eating gambling game (Newman finally took the pose of Jesus), going out to labor camps Designs that are directly and indirectly referenced by younger movies such as Shiyi and Sassy Girls and Newman's indomitable prison break. What I am dissatisfied with is the male protagonist's design. He was...

    He could always stand up in the ring, he could eat 50 eggs in an hour, he could spray the pepper into police dogs' noses, he could play a sad song with a broken heart. He wouldn't fit in the world with rules and regulations cuz of failure to communicate, neither would he believe in God cuz the life fucks him up, but nothing ain't ever broken...

    god damn boring,,,, is another kind of post-war life where you are in trouble and don't know where to go, so you have to mess around. When you look at the time, it is indeed the same era or even the same year as "The Graduate", but it looks like In contrast, this film is too boring, even Paul Newman can't save it, the audience basically relies on fast forward, 2.4...

    "Sir, just tell me, you say, do you know what it means to be in prison? Sitting in prison is like, you dead old bean, I won't let you go out to worship." - Silly Qiang. It seems that Lao Mei likes to shoot some of these, in fact, it is not wrong, but she is just a character who doesn't want to listen to you when she is unhappy. Such a character will indeed give the people around him a trace of hope and comfort in such a closed environment, but who would want to be such a person? So we are...

    After watching the movie, I felt like watching Paul Newman challenge the big muscular man’s cellmates with that small firewood-like body, watching him escape from prison again and again like paranoia, to be abused, and very much for him. Uncomfortable, can't bear to watch. I am just a person within the system. I am the kind of person criticized by the...

Cool Hand Luke quotes

  • Luke's Nephew: [on visiting day] Uncle Luke? Why can't *you* have chains?

    Luke: John-boy, lemme tell you something. You know, them chains ain't medals. You get 'em for making mistakes. And you make a *bad* enough mistake, and then you gotta deal with the Man. And he is one rough old boy.

  • Luke: Yeah, well... sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
