Join us in the Community Room at 1:00pm on Saturday, January 11th as we'll be screening the classic 1967 prison drama, "Cool Hand Luke" starring Paul Newman and George Kennedy. Note, this film is unrated (Pre-MPAA rating system) but contains scenes of violence and mild adult language.

When petty criminal Luke Jackson (Paul Newman) is sentenced to two years in a Florida prison farm, he doesn't play by the rules of either the sadistic warden (Strother Martin) or the yard's resident heavy, Dragline (George Kennedy), who ends up admiring the new guy's unbreakable will. Luke's bravado, even in the face of repeated stints in the prison's dreaded solitary confinement cell, "the box," make him a rebel hero to his fellow convicts and a thorn in the side of the prison officers.
