We just watched Cool Hand Luke, and, uh, I didn't get it. I now have context for phrases like "What we have here is a failure to communicate," and Luke's famous boast that he can eat 50 eggs in an hour ... but otherwise, I didn't get it. There doesn't seem to have been any purpose to Luke's life, other than to inspire fellow convicts to brash and brazen behavior. Anyone want to explain it to me?

Perhaps the point was that he had cool hands. You should have been watching the hands.
