Hello, I watched
“Cool Hand Luke” for the first time. I rented this movie from Geo. This movie
is American movie, and was made in 1967. The main character is Luke, and Paul
Newman plays him in the movie. He was very popular actor in America. He got the
Academy Awards three times, and he died in 2008.
Luke
is brave man, because he never loses when he was attacked by the boss of the prisoners.
In addition, he got turned by the boss, but he never stops and continues to
stand up. He tries to achieve what everyone hopes. For example, the bet was
held in the bastille. The bet is what Luke eats all of 50 boiled eggs. Most
people think that is impossible, but he has finished all!! Therefore, he got
belief from other prisoners in the prison.
I
imagined Luke’s Character is not good, because he was drunk and he broke a
parking meter in the beginning of the movie. However, he is calm and smart. For
example, other people don’t like the jobs like that cutting grass, so they
complain. However, he works hard, and never complains. What’s more, he tried to
escape from prison, but he was caught every time. His penalty is heavier and
heavier, but he never gives up. He acted as if he converted, and he apologizes.
Everyone think he has converted, but this is his lie. Next day, he broke out of
prison again with Dragline, but he was shot. He couldn’t success in escaping
from prison, but he never fears a miss, and he continued to try to something.
This
movie showed how terrible prison was, and the humanity and fear of violence. I
couldn’t image that situation, and I have never seen it before. However this
movie taught me the situation of prison in America clearly. In addition, I knew
the truth people shoot a convict easier.
