"What we got here is a failure to communicate!"

[Iron Mike]

Dragline: Nothin'. A handful of nothin'. You stupid mullet head. He beat you with nothin'. Just like today when he kept comin' back at me - with nothin'.

Them clothes got laundry numbers on them. You remember your number and always wear the ones that has your number. Any man forgets his number spends a night in the box. These here spoons you keep with you. Any man loses his spoon spends a night in the box. There's no playing grab-ass or fighting in the building. You got a grudge against another man, you fight him Saturday afternoon. Any man playing grab-ass or fighting in the building spends a night in the box. First bell's at five minutes of eight when you will get in your bunk. Last bell is at eight. Any man not in his bunk at eight spends the night in the box. There is no smoking in the prone position in bed. To smoke you must have both legs over the side of your bunk. Any man caught smoking in the prone position in bed... spends a night in the box. You get two sheets. Every Saturday, you put the clean sheet on the top... the top sheet on the bottom... and the bottom sheet you turn in to the laundry boy. Any man turns in the wrong sheet spends a night in the box. No one'll sit in the bunks with dirty pants on. Any man with dirty pants on sitting on the bunks spends a night in the box. Any man don't bring back his empty pop bottle spends a night in the box. Any man loud talking spends a night in the box. You got questions, you come to me. I'm Carr, the floor walker. I'm responsible for order in here. Any man don't keep order spends a night in...

All great quotes, from a great movie!

What did George Kennedy say to "Luke" when he was choking down that last egg?!

Luke meets "the boss Man.. played by: Strother Martin "the Captain"

Captain (Strother Martin)... " the new inmates are taught obedience: "You call the Captain 'Captain'...and you call the rest of us 'Boss', you hear?"

Luke didn't look impressed.

Luke got introductory instructions:

"You gonna fit in real good, of course, unless you get rabbit in your blood and you decide to take off for home. You give the bonus system time and a set of leg chains to keep you slowed down just a little bit, for your own good, you'll learn the rules. Now, it's all up to you. Now I can be a good guy, or I can be one real mean son-of-a-bitch. It's all up to you."

Yea. That Ole Luke... always reminded me of someone I know real well.

Dragline: (About Luke) " Maybe we ought to call it No Ears."
(To Luke) " You don't listen much, do ya, boy?"

Luke: " I ain't heard that much worth listenin' to. There's a lot of guys layin' down a lot of rules and regulations."


** Sexual titillation is provided by buxom and curvacious actress Joy Harmon.

In a scene where the convicts (knowingly and enticeingly by her) watch her washing her car; naturally aroused... one fella says, and referring to her loose fitting or open at the top dress:

"She ain't got nothin' but, nothin' but one safety pin holdin' that thing on. Come on safety pin, POP. Come on baby, POP."

Man! Who of us at the age that movie was made wasn't aroused by that firey scene.

Ahhh... those were the days of innocense. When she wiped thay soap over her abdomen.. ohhhhh...Good Golly Miss Molly... Then she took it up a few notch's...rrrrrraaaahhhh !!



Convict: " She don't know what she's doin'."

Luke: " Oh boy, she knows exactly what she's doin'. She's drivin' us crazy and lovin' every minute of it."

Ohhhh Thanks.... for the... memories...


" Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real Cool Hand." Cool Hand Luke



" Playin' it cool "...Cool Hand Luke


Thanks for bringing that superb movie back to me Iron Mike.

nothin'.... is better than..... cool.

Ya know, sometimes I wished people was like dogs, Luke.

Cool Hand Luke is one of my all time favorites. My dad let me stay up and watch it late one night when I was pretty young. After the car wash scene, my eyes are popping and he just said something like "She's something else."

Favorite quotes

Luke: "I got my mind right. I got it right."

LUKE talking to God: "Old Man, I know I'm a pretty evil feller who killed people in the war and got drunk and chopped up municipal merchandise and like that. I admit ain't got no call to ask for much. But even so, you ain't dealt me no cards in a long time. I mean it's beginning to look like you got it fixed so I can't never win out. Inside or out, it's just different bosses and different rules. Where am I supposed to fit in? Old Man, I got to tell you: I started out pretty strong and fast but it's starting to get to me... When does it end?... What you got in mind for me next? Old Man. What do I do now? Awright. On my hands and knees a skin'. Yeah. That's what I thought. I guess I'm just a hardcase and I gotta find my way out myself."
