Jesus Egg-cetera: Cool Hand Luke (1967)

Ohohoho it’s getting sweaty over here! On this episode we are joined by Ryan and Katie from The List to chat about Cool Hand Luke. Perhaps the defining prison film of the New Hollywood era, Paul Newman’s megawatt star power is put to perfect use as the ultimate lovable loser. We had a ball making the episode and what emerged was more or less a complete exegesis on this multifaceted Christian allegory. Except, you know, funny. Topics include: podcasting while married, slang words in West Side Story, and Dennis Hopper’s distracting background work.
