“Cool Hand Luke”
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses a number of the
sociological aspects of group interaction and relationships in
the 1967 movie “Cool Hand Luke” starring Paul Newman and George
Kennedy, directed by Stuart Rosenberg. Throughout the movie, the
audience understands how an apparently average man can find
himself in the midst of a situation in which his personal power
and control is completely denied. When that happens, people are
drawn to a character through a strange combination of admiration,
envy, and irritation. Even in the first of circumstances, Luke
maintains his cool and finds the humor in the most difficult of
circumstances. The group then defines itself through its
understanding and appreciation of Luke. Bibliography lists 2
sources.
