Just because Jay is away, doesn’t mean the show can’t go on! And this week it’s time for the latest Movie of the Month, looking at the great Cool Hand Luke!
Kristen Lopez takes her first turn in the hosting chair, and is joined by Richard Kirkham, Jess Manzo, Jeanette Ward and the movie’s champion Joe Guiliano to discuss whether Cool Hand Luke truly is a “guy’s movie”, Paul Newman’s performance as the eponymous Luke, and what exactly the point of the car washing scene is. Sadly no-one made any claims about how many eggs they could eat.
Also on tap: Rants and Raves of the Week and a couple of games of Last Lamb Standing, one of which is the most random topic we’ve had in a while.
Here’s what the rest of the LAMB community has to say about Cool Hand Luke:
Criminal Movies
Insession Film (Movie Escapes)
Kirkham A Movie A Day (Strother Martin)
Man I Love Films
Two Dollar Cinema
It’s also time to vote for the next movie of the month:
