This week’s pick is a film that I’ve sadly never seen. My wife has been holding this over me our entire marriage. It’s the one film she’s seen, but I haven’t. It’s time to make that right.

All I know about Cool Hand Luke is that it stars Paul Newman, he’s on a chain gang, and somebody says “What we have here is a failure to communicate” in a southern accent. Someone recently told me it was their favorite film. I’m looking forward to seeing it for the first time.
