This week CL Charlotte's Matt Brunson discusses the DVD releases of Cool Hand Luke, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Leatherheads and more.
COOL HAND LUKE (1967). In a career filled with iconic anti-heroes – including what I deem the "4-H Club" from the 1960s (Hud, Harper, Hombre and The Hustler) – Lucas Jackson just might be the most popular of all the societal misfits played by Paul Newman. After drunkenly destroying parking meters in a small Southern town, Newman's wisecracking loner is shipped off to a prison whose inmates break their backs working on a chain gang. Read the rest here.
