@checkervest @hex @touk Good news on the just a coincidence front! According to Decider, Amazon Prime added #CoolHandLuke to its catalogue this month. https://decider.com/article/new-on-amazon-prime/

If I'm reading this Collider article right, it was just released on digital earlier this year, which feels both unbelievable and given corporate catalogue title treatment, all too believable. https://collider.com/cool-hand-luke-maltese-falcon-4k-ultra-hd-digital-release-date/

The oiled road paving is #CoolHandLuke’s triumphant entry into Jerusalem. It’s all downhill now for poor Luke. #TCMParty

Tonight on Action News, a sweaty chain gang of convicts paves a road in record time. Film at 11. #CoolHandLuke #TCMParty

What makes #CoolHandLuke for me is that, as much as it’s feature for Paul Newman, it’s an outstanding ensemble piece, with a fantastic cast delivering definitive performances in memorable roles. #TCMParty

#CoolHandLuke never acknowledges his brother John, never even looks him in the eye, and Arletta admits to neglecting him. John gives Luke the banjo, with the words,”Now there ain’t nothing to come back for” uttered like a warning. Whew. family. #TCMParty

Jo Van Fleet is perfect, PERFECT, as #CoolHandLuke’s momma, and her conversation with Luke about being a parent is as poignant and insightful as any I can think of on the subject. #TCMParty

Bette Davis as Arletta, #CoolHandLuke’s mama. As she leaves her visit to the prison, she says, “Fasten your seatbelts, it’s going to be a bumpy ride home in the back of this pickup.” #TCMParty

As we’ve discussed before, it’s a delightful mystery WHY #CoolHandLuke is decapitating parking meters, and why he gets such a stiff sentence for it. A long simmering feud with the local authorities? #TCMParty

Trying to imagine Bette Davis in the role of #CoolHandLuke’s mama. She takes one look at the prison and says, “WHAT a DUMP!” #TCMParty

Oh my goodness, I watched #CoolHandLuke again and had forgotten that #ConradHall was #DP. He was one of the greatest. The #film looks as amazing as his other works. Great choice and use of framing, lighting, and lenses.

if hollywood really wants to tie up valuable funds in remakes...maybe do one that is worthwhile...#CoolHandLuke but Luke, of course, is a black man... "What we have here, is failure to communicate. He wants it this way. Well...he gets it."
