A fine DVD of the classic western famous for the witty by-play between Newman and Redford and the luminous photography by the distingushed Conrad Hall,this has some interesting extras,most of all a rarely-seen documentary of the film with fascinating behind the scenes footage, narrated by the director George Roy Hill.PARENTS BE WARNED!! though;Hill comes out with a few choice expletives during his commentary,so it should not be shown to young children.The DVD notes should've made this clearer,but barring this minor quibble it's an excellent all-round package of one of Hollywood's best remembered westerns.

Paul Newman died yesterday, and I watched 'Cool Hand Luke' in his memory. Paul liked to think he was an ordinary guy. He played ordinary guys in his films, and he hung around ordinary people. The difference is that Paul Newman knew his own mind and no one could push him. That is the kind of character that Paul Newman best portrayed.

Luke Jackson was a war hero, who may have suffered from PTSD. Certainly Luke did not want to face his demons, he did not like people, he did not want to be anyone's hero; he wanted to go his own way. Damn those people anyway.

Luke was caught drunk removing the top of parking meters and sentenced to two years in a southern chain gang. Sounds like Hell and ... Read More:

Paul newman is class itself as the leather adorned ,abusive ,crooked but delightful hockey coach in a great sports comedy dealing with the on field and behind the scenes adventures of an ice-hockey team .

it is screwball,pantomime ,satire whatever but never has a dull moment to reckon .

there are multiple strands and lots of foul mouted, sordid ,sporty men with loads of profanities both verbal and visual but it is all relevantly integrated into the compact script.

roy hill was a really great maker who had a great sense of comic timing and he has a script to reckon with a fabulous cast -the results are an exemplary sports genre comedy for all times.

newman aged really gracefully and he looks so ... Read More:

Re-visiting this famous Oscar-winning classic was not only thoroughly enjoyable, but also gave us a chance to see, with the distance of time, it's darker side. The mysterious and menacing "super-posse" which pursues our two heroes (surely two of the most pleasant bank robbers one could ever hope to meet) has a really sinister feel, almost like the horsemen of the apocalypse.

There is a wonderfully conveyed sense of romantic doom attaching to Butch and Sundance, and the ending is perfectly well-judged for the mood of the piece.
It was made in the very late 60s, and already one can detect the beginnings of the sense of alienation many young Americans were feeling from a society which seemed over-conformist, and in which to rebel - with ... Read More:

"Its time we started thinking beyond our guns, those days are closing fast," muses Pike (William Holden) shortly after the bloodiest shootout in cinema history. The shootout was the result of a botched robbery attempt, and it soon descended into chaotic carnage where Pike and his titular Wild Bunch are forced to shoot their way out of an ambush, killing a good portion of civilians in the crossfire.

This classic movie was released in 1969 in response to the hugely successful gay western `Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid'. Butch Cassidy's huge success at the box office essentially green lit the way for Sam Peckinpah's vision of a changing wild west in The Wild Bunch.
It would be a travesty to think about The Wild Bunch in terms of its ... Read More:

Watched this at the cinema when if first came out, excellent. If you like cult 70's filems you won't be disappointed. However, you need some form of frame of reference. For example, dope, 70's cars or 70's cop shows etc. Without these you'll probably be disappointed. My girlie fell asleep during the film. Hmm, she's got to go.

Yet again the Ford/Wayne team deliver the goods. Loosely based on a factual action during the U.S. civil war, Wayne leads his union troops deep into the conferacy, the supply depot and railway infrastructure at Newton station is the target. The first part of the film is fairly slow moving, emphasis placed on Wayne's dislike of surgeon Kendall (William Holden) who has been added to his command, and the needless introduction of a female lead (Constance Towers), nice on the eye, but surplus to requirements, as the plot here has the troop constantly on the move.

The real action starts at about the hour mark with the battle and ransacking at Newton station, followed by the events of the journey back to the union lines. Plenty of fighting (gun and hand) ... Read More:
