Cool Hand Luke is one of those great performances of a great actor in the prime of his early life. I would compare it to Five Easy Pieces with Jack Nicholson or Taxi Driver with Robert DeNiro. Unlike those, Paul Newman was already a pretty big star, having done Hud and The Hustler...but this was probably his high point. I've seen this quite a few times, and there aren't many movies I care to see multiple times. Assuming I eventually get the capability to play HD movies, this would be a no-brainer for me.
